To Repair Trail.
A petition was circulated here
this fall addressed to the Alaska
Hoad Commission, asking that six
men be employed to keep the win
fer trail in repair between the
summit and Teikheil. The peti
tion was forwarded to Skagwsy,
and an answer received by wire
today, authorizing the hiring of
four men. Following is the
message:
E. S. Orr: Please engage four
men to work on summit under
your supervision until the arrival
of Mr. Ingram. Salary must not
exceed 185 per month. Pillsbury.
