How the Dominion Does the
 Work of the Government
The Yukon WnI Soon He Within Photographic Circuit of the World A Hundred Miles of Roads To Bo Built Along the Crooks

D. Me K. Minard, chief accountant of the Department of Public Works oi the Yukon, who resides at White Horse. came in on the train last night.
 Mir. Minard has never witnessed a celebration of the glorious Fourth on American soil, and has come 10 Skag way to participate in the events oi ln' dependence Day.
 Mir. Minard is at the head of gov ernmental department that can hardly be compared to any department oi the United States, where public works are assigned for construction. to such de- partments as may iurnish a call for their establishment. The departments of war, navy post office and interior respectively build their barracks, navy yards post offices and Indian schools. But the Canadian Department oi Pu- bile Works is solely a constructing and maintaining division of the govern ment. doing all the construction and repairing of the Dominion govern ment.
 White Horse is the headquarters of the Yukon division of the Public Works Department. which is under the supervision of J. C. Taohe, who. ex- cepting the telegraphs has charge ot an the public works in the country Mir. Tache left White Horse, yester- day morning for Dawson. where 100 miles of road are to be built along the creeks. The appropriation for this purpose is deemed. however, not to be ample for the purpose, but will go a long way in accomplishing the result desired.
 A road up the Big Salnon has been recommended by Mr. Tache as well as cutoff between White Horse and Lower La Barge. The object of the latter will be to keep an open way between White Horse and Dawson when the ice is thin, in the fall, and during the spring breakup. No am thority. however. has yet been obtained for the construction of these roads. All the affairs of Mir Tache's office are managed from White Horse. ex- ccpting a road district at Dawson that is under the supervision of :. A. D. | Bertrand.
 The pioneer headquarters of Mir | Taches division was at Caribou under the control of J B Charlston who was we'll known in Skagway during the days of railroad construction. Mir. Charlston is still at the head of the tet- legraph construction. He is now, a, Port Simpson. from where he is mas naging the closing of the eighty-fve mile gap between Hszelton and the northern outpost of the British Coluw bia coast Port Simpson. being com nectcd by telegraph with Vancouver. when this gap is finished, the Yukon territory will an be within the tclegra, phic circuit of the world

Local Company Hopes to

RoOont Shortage of Beer In Dawson Caused Prioo To Go Away Up Wholesalers Wn BO Given Priv ilogo of Importing Liquor

K. C. Smith of the Skagway Brew ing Co. who went into Dawson few days ago is expected to return the lat ter part of this week. His trip 60 Dawson was for the purpose of look ing over that market with view )l shipping m Skagway brewed beer. The field here Is muchtoo small for the ca pacity of the local plant. and the re-. cent shortage of beer m Dawson no doubt suggested the possibility of an interior field to Mr. Smith
 Passengers arriving from Dawson a few weeks ago stated that the beer sup ply was almost exhausted and the price of beverage at wholesale climbed to an unusual high point From the nor mat quotation of SO barrel it has r's- en to SISo.
 It is said to have been 500 or high CT in days gone by but the present price is considered by many 10 now have an altitude almost as elevated as the clouds
 Nearly every barrel of the beer ;n Dawson is contracted for at rates made some time ago. SO not an that which IS being consumed these days is bringing the fancy price of Slso However. much that has been consumed tile last several weeks has commanded what might be classified as a--gilt edge price. The big companies have some. but it is an sold under contracts made some time ago. Just what relief the beer market might expect in the near future is somewhat of problem. Ger tain of the Dawson dealers are said to have beer on the wayin, among them McCaulay Brothers. who expect 6o barrels soon isom White Horse
 Much oi the beer will come to the Yukon and who will bring the bulk of it remains Co be seen. Commissioner Ross. who holds the reins in the liquor permit business has not issued ,hc seasons permits and when he does will give but a limited number. J. II.

TO USE BRICK
A New Material For Build

Yard Is Now In sTRtion- Has the Latest of Machinery and Is Turn ing Out I26, 900 Brick Per wosk -WnI Soon 5upplant Lumber

A revolution in the methods of ar chitecture in Dawson is most likely 10 come about as a modern brick yard IS now in operation near the city, and buildings of which have found favor m the eyes of several prospective build CTS. Al the present time there are two brick structures at Dawson and one in course of construction for I. .. Wilson the commission merchant.
 The brick works are situated at the mouth of O. K. creek. about two miles from Dawson and are running full blast. the new Quaker brick-makine machine which was taken in over the ice last winter is doing good work and accomplishing more with same force of men in a week than under the old qethod of hand moulding. The ma ehine is iuFning out about I25.ooo bricks each week. The winter fires have been started in thehrSt kiln, containing 10000 bricks. SO as to supply the de- mand of the present building boom in Dawson. As soon as burned, these bricks will be brought down in seowS. Superintendent Welch of the Brick Company. is making arrangements for handling the bricks as the first kiln IS burned. He expects to make at least |. I.5ooooo bricks this season.
 At several places near Dawson good brick-making clay can be found, that in the ncighborhood of Swede and O. K. creeks being said to be especially adapted for this work. A fine quality of clay also exists on the hill between Dawson and the Aeklen farm back of the city. and extensive beds are found on the flats below West Dawson. With the establishment of several yards building material could be furnished there at a reasonable cost that would in a large measure supplant lumber in the construction of business blocks.
