'VALDEZ MI!
j NOW OPEN TO THE
Ml ROAD ARTERY
According to word received by
Anton Eide, of the Alaska Road
Commission who returned to the
city last evening from the Inlet
country, a telegram from Valdez
informed him that the first car
to make the trip over the high
way crossed the Summit on
July 8, at 1 p. m.
Scores of residents along the
Alaska Railroad belt will be
glad to hear the road is open out
of Valdez for they expect to take
advantage of the combined steam
ship and railroad rate for ship
ping autos to Valdez from Seward
and down the railroad from Fair
banks
From this period on the drive
over the Richardson Highway is
a magnificent one; Valdez is par
ticularly fortunate insofar as be
ing the seaport terminus of the
long scenic road winding in a sil
very-like band of ribbon from
the heart of the “Golden North”
Fairbanks—to one of the most
famous of old Alaska towns, Val
dez.
P. C. McMullen, Mayor of Sew- |
ard who is down-river on bus
