DAILY EDITION

Previous to ‘his departure for
Prince Rupert to consult with
William Manson, M.P.P., re-
garding local and district appro-
priations for 1914, Road Supt.
CG. J. Gillingham outlined to The
Miner the progress made throu-
ghout his district in road and
trail construction the past year.
It must be borne in mind that
the superintendent has a_ vast
territory to serve and that the
work is necessarily scattered
over a wide area’ Of the local
improvements that to the Bear
River wagon road—-the present
main transportation artery to
American Creek, consisted in re-
grading the road from the town
to the Portland Canal concen-
trator. The grade at Ward's
pass was also reduced and from
Bear Lake to American Creek
some 3000 yards of reck have
been deposited, laying the foun-
dation for an excellent road.

From American Creek to Mez-
iadin lake the Bear-Naas trail
was thoroughly overhauled,
grades. reduced, trail widened
and culverts put in where need-
ed. A new trail was_ started
from Meziadin Lake to the head
of Panorama Creek. The _ trail
has been cut out providing com-
munication between Stewart and
the heart of the Groundhog coal
basin. This wil! be the shortest
and easiest route from tidewater
to the anthracite fields, cover-
ing a distance from Stewart of
126 miles. It is on a good grade
with an abundance of feed and
this season will see it complet-
ed. It strikes the Government
telegraph line between Cabins 6
and 7.

Another important pack - trail

ioe

Outline of Work Done by |
Stewart Road Superintendent

commencing at the Naas bridge

11 miles above Meziadin Falls
to Cottonwood river, ‘39 miles in
length was constructed. This
provides means of communica-
tion to all lower Naas river
points and connects with the
trails to Hazelton and Kitwan-
ghar points on the Skeena.

Work was. started on the
building of a wagon road up
Bitter Creek to serve the mines
of that section, and this season
should see its completion. Work
on the extension of the Marmot
river trail he characterizes as
being of the best character. The
Salmon River trail was also
greatly improved. From Nine to
Eleven miles the trail has been
carried along on a_ water level
which is of the greatest benefit
to all who have interests in that
part of the camp.

The trail up Glacier Cfeek
was also vastly improved by the
building of a new bridge and ex-
tension work.

Both Granby Bay and Alice
Arm received their’ share of the
appropriations in road and trail
construction, and Mr. Gilling-

season they will receive more at

‘tention than ever, in view of the

large mining investments tak-
ing place, and the need for fur-
ther transportation facilities.
As noted elsewhere, in sub-
mitting his report to Mr. Man-
son, the road superintendent has
made a substantial: request for
appropriations for 1914 which
will undoubtedly receive — the
support of the member, when
same aré taken up with the Min-
ister of Public Works at Vic-
toria——Portiand Canal Miner. e
