is the method followed today.
The house of representatives
consists of sixteen members,
four from each of the four judi.
cial divisions. The term of office
of each representative is two
years, and each representative
shall possess the same qualifica
tions as are prescribed for mem.
bers of the senate.
Election Time
Elections for members of the
legislature 'are held on the sec.
ond Tuesday in September. In
case of a tie vote, candidates
thus affedted settle the matter
by lot or drawing. In case of a
vacancy in either branch of the
legislature, the governor shall
order a special election giving
due and proper notice.
The legislature convenes at
Juneau, Alaska’s capital, on the
second Monday in January of
each alternate year. Since the
first legislature convened in 1913
it follows that the legislative
session is always held on the odd
year. ,
The legislative session is limited
by the Organic Act to sixty days
in any two years, unless again
convened by a proclamation of
the governor, which shall set
forth the object of the session,
and give not less than thirty
days notice to each member of
the legislature—special sessions
are limited to not more than 15
| days.
Compensation Service
[ Members of the legislature are,
compensated at the rate of $15
per day for each days attendance
while the legislature is in ses.
sion, and mileage in addition at
the rate of 15 cents per mile
from his home to Juneau and re.
turn.
Officers are Elected
After convening at Juneau a
presiding officer is elected from
the membership of each of the
two bodies comprising the legis.
lature. The presiding officer of
the senate is termed “President
of the Senate”. The presiding offi
cer of the House is termed the
“Speaker of the House of Repre.
sentatives.”
Certain Limits Prescribed
The authority granted to the
legislature under the organic
act to alter, amend, modify and
repeal laws in force in Alaska,
I does not extend to the Customs,
internal revenue, postal, immigra
tion and naturalization, or other
general laws of the United Stat
es, or to the game, fish and fur
seal laws, and laws relating to
fur.bearing animals, or to the
laws of the United States pro
viding for taxes on business and
trade, or to the laws providing
for the establishment and main,
tenance of roads and schools, or
to the support and care of in
sane persons. However, this pro
vision in the Organic Act does
not operate to prevent the leg.
islature from imposing other and
additional taxes or licenses.

Community Xmas
To Be Gala Affair
At the meeting held yesterday
at the Office of Indian Affairs,
to elect new officers for the Com
munity Xmas Tree, Calvin Pool,
Supt. of the Nome School was
voted as this year’s Chairman.
Miss Dorothy Russell, Deacon
ness of the Lavina Wallace
Young Mission was reelected as
secretary, and J. S. Stan groom
as Treasurer.
Numerous ones there discuss,
ed tentative plans for staging a
huge celebration, and A. Polet
informed the group that G. R.
Jackson, who had ordered a
large consignment of fireworks,
intended donating them to the
Community Christmas, as part
of the big celebration.
Upon vote it was decided to
set the date for the Community
Xmas Tree celebration, as Wed.
nesday, December 23rd,
The chairman, Mr. Pool, was
empowered to negotiate with the
board to secure permission for
the use of the big school auditor
ium, so that a single mass cele
bration could be held for the en
tire public.
Inasmuch as this was merely
a meeting to organize, no furth
er decisive steps were taken at
this time, save to arrange for a
large Christmas Tree to be se_
cured, and also to arrange for
the annual shipment of a present
to the Pilgrim Springs Mission.
The appointment of committee
heads and other details are to be
worked out this week and an.
other meeting held soon.
