A metallic telephone circuit has been constructed from my office in Jackman to Skinner, a distance of 23 miles; also from Attean Mountain to the main line, one and one-half miles, which has proven to be a great improvement over the grounded line. A new box has been installed at Kibbie Mountain and also one at Attean Mountain. I have caused a new camp to be built at Williams Moun- tain and a new telephone was placed in the tower. All trails have been put into first-class shape. I would suggest that a new telephone line, a distance of four miles, be constructed from Williams Mountain to Cold Stream Pond.
