COMPLETED
Nome, ToWer and »C«n.nc!le have
t>een g really improve# in various
circ respects, having received
from the Federal appropriations
th® following funds: Nome, tlO,
*55-64; Teller, $2,736.46; Candle,
*541.51.
One hundred and lifty-gi* men,
working flve days 3 week ' and
eight hours a day, cleared the
city haU square of nil old "fn a ch
in ery and junk, tore down a build
log thereon, salvaging the lumber,
✓ and spread a good coat of gravel
0,1 the Jot, making It an attrac
tive ami valuable piece of pro
perty.
Eight rooms in the Nome Public
School were painted and papered,
and many changes were made in
the windows to improve the light
ing system. This greatly improv
ed the seating arrangement, and
saved considerable cost of light
ing the interior. All desks were
either pa nted or varnished, and
•the gymnasium was painted and
repaired. Considerable new shelv
ing was made and some new tab
les were built.
In addition to the above the
old court house was torn down
and the lumber therefrom salvag
ed to help finance what small
costs in paint, etc. occurred. The
lot was then covered with a lay
er of gravel.
About twenty-two men were em
ployed in Teller on their fresh
water project, which consists of a
lagoon that formerly kept fresh
water flowing into it free from
the salt water of Port Clarence.
In 1913 a storm occurred which
allowed a break to admit salt wa
ter. This break has been repair
ed now by the use of thawrng
apparutus that Teller people fur
I
j mailed in order to work on same.
| Candle was benefit ted by their
[improvement of the landing field
jond also I he building gp of their
p'fcyfl'eld, About six j»ten were
jemjdoyed in this work.
Frozen ground in Kotzebue, St.
Michael, Portuim L,edge and other
j localities in the Sijcoml Division,
j to gether with the lack of ready
communication on short notice
prevented additional improvements
tbait might have been made.

TO THE voters of Tin
SECOND DIVISION:
I n in earnestly seck'nff your
support lor the nomination as
Representative on the Democratic
ticket to the Alaska Legislature
fc>f the’ Second Division. I am
twenty-two years of age. I have
spt*nt the greatest portion of my
life in Nome, and have received
a large part of my education here, j
l want this nomination, I want
to help my Div ision and -ny T*t- j
itory. What I lack in experience j
will surely be made np in n con- j
sclent ona desire to do my best j
'or your interest.
Having been a resident of Alas
ka for such a length of time, I'
have gained a knowledge and an
understanding of its needs, and I
will, at all times, heed the wishes
of my fellow citizens as express-1
ed through the r chamber of com-!
merce or other civic bodies. With1
Mo hobbies with respect to legis
lation, I tfhall always be yours to
command.
I believe, however, that our ed
ucational institutions could be
greatly improved for the benefit
of both white and Eskimo. If the
same amount of money now being
spent by the Federal and Territ
orial governments were dispensed
under competent Territorial super
vision, both races would benefit
by enhanced educational facilities
without undue waste and over
head. Both white and lJ»Kln»o
schools could he decidedly im
proved. 4t
I am heartily in sympathy with
the tenets of the Democratic
Party, and particularly with the
Recovery program of our Presi
dent. As before mentioned, the
needs of this Division are well
kno\vn to me, and ray utmost en
deavors shall be, if elected, to see
that our desires are crystnlized
into substantial legislation.
Appreciating the support that
you may see tit to tender me, and
assuring you of my entire efforts
jn your interests, I am
Sincerely yours,
RICHARD. B. 1>KB
