Stewart Council Flans
Asphalt Sidewalks
The Stewart Village Council
is considering the substitution
of asphalt surfaced sidewalks
for the plank walks now gen
erally in use in the camp.
The question was discussed
at considerable length by the
council last week. The council
is of the opinion that asphalt
gravelled walks can be laid as
cheaply and will be more dur
able than plank walks. This
view was supported by infor
mation obtained from the city
engineer of Prince Rupert and
presented at the meeting.
The council also decided that
dog owners who are unable to
pay in cash the annual dog tax,
ranging from $3 in the case of
male dogs to $5 for females,
may work out the '■tax on the
city highways.
Constable C. Pctterton of
Stewart returned Thursday
from Prince Rupert, where he
successfully underwent a ma
jor operation.

Wm. Shaw Stroke Victim |
William Shaw, local teamster, |!
became the victim ol' a paraly
tic stroke on Main street about
10:30 Friday morning. He
was observed to fall by Martin
Gleason, who took him into
his own cabin and summoned
Dr Vosburg from Stewart.
Following an examination,
Dr. Vosburgh said Shaw has a
fair chance for ultimate recov
ery but will require hospitaliz
ation. Shaw is 61 years old
and has resided in Alaska
many years, coming here from
Anchorage. His situation is
rendered doubly pathetic by
the fact that ho is in entirely
destitute circumstances, having
had no regular employment for
more than two years. He was
formerly in the employ of the
Premier company. U. S. Com
missioner Chas. F. Sandford
has asked the Governor for aid
for the unfortunate man.
Mrs. Wm. Assyltine and child
of Premier returned Thursday

P. J. O'Rourke returned Mon
