much: that-of ihe Allin '.District

Kugiueenug JonrnaLsays, that, the
roads in 1 hat part of the Province
cost less, than in any pari of Alaska,
to build and. maintain. Little
bridging would have lo be done, as
the streams •'*••'*-' small. There is
abundance <>f good, limber, and.
eight miles of tlie already constructed McKee Creek road would form
part of the proposed road.
