Skaguay has added newspaper to its
other attractions. 1t is called the
Skagua News, four pages brim full of
news, and the first number, issued on
October 10, was accompanied by sup
plement, to accommodate the press of
matter on nshand The most important
items furnished by the news are in re-
lation to the tramway to be built over
Ithe Skaguay pass, which it says will
be constructed at once.

way Company has recently been formed,
with three of our Skaguay residents
as organizers. Harry E. Battin repre-
sents large moneyed interests in Port

Henry c. Ash. of Philadelphia, is
backed by capital from Eastern States.
Ensley A. Webster, who is well known
in railway circles as practical engineer
and builder, will have charge of the con-
struction. Skaguay has been chosen as
terminus, because from this place, as
the head of navigation, through line
to Lake Bennett can be built to carry
freight and passengers from the tide
water to the head waters of the Yukon
without single change, at the same
time being the shortest route. This
tramway will be finished to Summit lake

Southerner, and that under all circum-
stances and conditions he never forgets

has frequent opportunity to study the

Southern brothers. They are never sat

whether upper is more desirable or not
they just want to change. The Southern

The Times, evidently, does not fully
agree with the conductor, and in proof
thereof, raises the point that il should
be noted that the interview appeared in

and i. adds: Possibly if the conductor
had been talking for the benefit OF

been Sd severe on their habits and man

This. to say the least. is an unchar-
