A wagon road from White Horse to the
copper mines nine miles from that city
will be commenced at once and rapidly
pushed 10 a completion. Such is the re
suit OF the recent visit of Commissioner
William Oglvie 70 that CITY. Referring
to the MISTER the White Horse Tribune
says:
'Mr. Oeilvie chief commissioner of the
Yukon had been over the ground to see for
himself. and " hen he met the council of
the board OF ira on Monday morning to
discuss thngsfn general he had his mind
made up on the necesstv of wagon road
from the town to point which would tap
the producing mines, He said "the advan-
tages for building a road are the very best
in the whole Yukon. 1t is an easy and
comparatively inexpensive work. There
is yet some of the appropriation for roads
still in the hands of the commissioner and
the matter of cost can be met. will meet
Mr.. Tache chief engineer of the Yukon

to commence the building of a wagon road
Immediately on his return to White Horse.
1t ought to be completed bv the middle of

is for the people who want the road to
come to an unanimous decision rs to what
route 1t should take and Where tie termi
nus should be-"
THAT apparently settles thu question of
a wagon road. The miners as we'll as the
people of the town who are interested are
satisfied with the way in which that one
claim In particular was acknowledged and
dealt with BY the commissioner.

Hon. c. A. Towne

Washington Correspondence of the
Duluth Herald saws:
The friends of former Congressman
Towne, of Minnesota, are just now en-
deavoring to find out what Office the
Duluth statesman will seek, If any,
this fall. Now that 1t is impossible
for him to become Mr.. Bryau's asso-
ciate on the Democratic presidential
ticket, his friends believe that he will
finally consent to accept the fusion
nomination for congress in the Sixth
MINES ota district. Aware as they are
that he is the best vote getter among
the fusionists, they believe that he can
this fall defeat his old-time competi-
tor, Judge Page Morris, should the
latter be nominated. If Mr.. Towne
should finally consent to again accept
congressional nomination, his friends
feel certain that he will be elected.
Unless Mr.. Towne consents to run for
congress this fall it is not likely that
he will be a candidate for an elective
Office. If Mr.. Bryan is elected, how
ever, it is said to be fact that Mr..
Towne will be member of his cabinet.
1t is stated that this promise has al
ready been made by Mr.. Bryan to the
Silver Republican leaders, Senators
Teller and Pettigrew, former Senator
Mantle, of Montana, and former SEN
ator Dubois, of Idaho.
