The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-01-27

The popularity of Hawaii as a sum-
mer resort in the winter for Alaska
people, seems to have taken quite
start during the present season, and
at present there are at least fifteen
or twenty visitors from that section in
the city. Among these is P. D. Nc
MILAN, from whitehorse, a small town
located at the head of navigation on
the Yukon river. In speaking of his
trip to these islands yesterday, he
stated that he had been so well pleased
with the climate and general condi-
tons here that he would surely send
many others to Honolulu. His visit
was brought about by his acquaintance
with r. H S. Cresswell, an Alaska
man, who was down here three years
ago on his wedding trip.
In talking about his trip. and then
about the part of Alaska from which
he comes. Ms, Mcmillan said:
81 have been in Alaska for the last
eight winters, and in that time have
not had a chance to see what one
might cali warm weather. When in
coming out I decided to find the pleas
ATTEST climate possible, Mr.. Cresswell,
who was here a few years ago, ad-
vised me to come to Hawaii He
said that 1 would get the climate and
could have a good time and enjoy my
self, and I have found out that he
was right. am here with my wife
and child, and will go back by the
Aorangi next month.
Il have run across a number of
Alaska men while here and that has
made me feel at home and kept me
busy talking about old times. I should
like to see the two sections of the
UNITED States get better acquainted.
The change which one finds coming
here from Whitehorse, where 1 own the
largest hotel in the town, is great
one, but one is bound to appreciate
1t. In the same way your people here
would be sure to enjoy a trip to
Alaska, where they would find sights
entirely new to them.
Next week I expect to make the

trip to the volcano, of which I have
heard so much, and will take in every
thing that I can on the way. 1t will
be a great sight and a change from
the country in which I live, where,
fer great part of the year, the cold
is so extreme that the, Yukon river
is frozen solid.
'tWhitehorse Is a little town of about
1000 inhabitants, at the foot of the
White Horse Rapids, where steam
navigation stops. From that point
down to ST. Miehaels, the Yukon is
navigable for 200 miles. Navigation
is impossible for many months in the
year, and from November 1 to May l
the trip from Whitehorse TO Dawson
is made by stage. The most perfect
system of its kind is used. The stage
is a big sled, with six horses, and
leaves three times each week. Fresh
horses are provided every twenty
miles and the trip of $50 miles is made
in five days.
THE hunting in that section is I'M
surpassed. We have moose, caribou
and mountain sheep in abundance, and
this gives US the best of sport. Close
to the town is an enormously rich
copper country, which, though far
from the srnelters, it has been posi-
BILE to work at a profit. The richness
that it costs 81 a ton to bring it TO
Whitehorse. then the steamer charges
must be paid to the smelter at Ia
coma; and even with these conditions
to face, a good profit is made.
THE White Pass and Yukon Rail-
road runs up from Whitehorse and has
become famous through the difficulties
which We're overcome by its builders.
They tell story of NJ. j. Heney, the
brother of the San Francisco attor-
ney, who built the road, that is rather
interesting.
came along before he was able to fin
ish part of his track. and unless the
trains were running by certain date
his franchise would be forfeited. To
prevent this he laid his rails on ties
which We're on top of six feet of snow
and ice. and was able to run engines
and cars over them.
In the old days they used to have
a great way of shipping the undesira-
bic characters out of Dawson. The
current in the river is very swift. trav-
cling at about seven miles an hour.
When the Northwestern police found
someone whom they considered undesi-
rable, they would take him down to the
river. There, along the ranks, were
hundreds of plank boats. which had
been left by people going up to seek
