Of tie several towns visited by
j William J. Julian since his de
parture from Interior Alaska sev
eral months ago, Xenana offers the
ibest opportunities for those seeking
I employment. Climatic conditions,
j he says, also are much more plea
jsant in Interior Alaska.
In a letter addressed to the Xe
jnana Commercial club, from Tal
|keetna, July 14, the oldtimer has
(the following to say regarding his
wanderings and conditions along the
coast:
“As this is the first time I have
had a chance to write, will let you
know how this side of the divide is
getting along. You have a winter
road that has been cut this sum
mer, 12 feet wide, with all the
trees rooted out, from Indian river
to Honolulu creek, that takes you off
of all river and streams, to within
seven miles of Sullivan’s roadhouse.
This road will be finished clear
through to Broad Pass if they are
not called in before winter. They
are doing very good work.
“The track has been extended
six miles beyond Talkeetna, but it
is not known at this time whether
or not it will go any farther this
j summer.
| “Xow, if you get busy on the
! Xenana end and have some kind of
iroad to meet the new road from
ithis end, I can’t see why all the
I travel to the Interior should not go
• through Xenana. You can drive
four-horse teams over the road they
ihave built so far, and they expect
to continue the same kind of road
| clear through to the pass,
j “Everything is very quiet over
jhere—there seems to be no business
•at ali. The town has one good
i store and a first-class hotel.
“The Cache Creek district is tak
ing out some gold, but they did not
get started early this spring, so do
! not look for a big summer.
“For anyone who has to work for
I wages, I would say, stay in little
old Xenana. It has them all skinned
a mile.
| “So far, I have struck just two
i kinds of weather—rain and snow,
i On June 26 it froze a quarter of
an inch of ice at Indian river.”
