came to relieve the high pressure
of the fuel bills. The wind which
on Sunday was southwest, kept on
veering round the compass being
duo north Sunday night, southeast
Monday morning, and almost due
south last night. As it swung
around it also became balmier sc
that last evening it was nice and

The regular meeting of the City
Council was held at the usual hour
last night with all present except
Councilman Ross. After the minu
tes of the preceding meeting had
been read and approved, a commu
nication was read from Clerk Grimm
of the Nome School Board asking
for $1500 to pay December expen
ses of the School. Clerk Grimm
explained that the sum asked for
was higher than usual, but it was
due to the fact that bills as far
back as June were due and he want
ed to clear the slate. He further
offered to read a detailed list of the
expenses but Council waived his do
ing so.
The City Attorney reported his
having drawn up an ordinance
amending the Tax Ordinance No.
231. The oroinanco amended the
date of assessment from September
1 to November 1 and the section
referring to tax sales directed that
excess turned in be returned to pur
chaser at the delinquent sale when
the delinquent tax payer redeemed
the property.
Councilman Blake reported that
he had called for bids for printing'
for the next six months. These
were opened later in the meeting,
and the contract awarded to the
Nome Nugget as lowest bidder.
The ordinance amending Ordi
nance No. 231 was read and voted
upon, all the councilmen except
Lehmann voting “yes ' it was pas
sed.
Councilmon Blake said that he
had prepared another Ordinance
which he would present at the next
meeting.
Councilman Lehman reported pro
gress in the matter of the Aksala
Carnival. He stated that arrange
ments had practically been perfect
ed for the big event. They had also
prepared a proclamation designat
ing Friday December 31 a half
Holiday as Aksala Carnival Day.
This was read.
Councilman Burgh moved that the
request of the school board for
fifteen hundred dollars be granted,
and that warrants be drawn paying
over the same to the officers of the
Board. Councilman Lehmann se
conded the motion which was car
ried.
Councilman Thompson moved the
adjournment prematurely and
Councilman Blake called attention
to the fact that the bids for city
printing were not yet disposed of.
As stated the contract was awardee
to the Nugget, whereupon the ad
journing councilman properly filled
his function and it was carried de
spite the opposition of one of the
members of the body on general
principles.
