ELECTION OFFICIALS NAMED
AT MEETING OF COUNCIL
Election officials who will have
charge at the polls on Tuesday, on
the occasion of the annual city
elections, were appointed at the
regular meeting of the city council
on Tuesday night, in accordance
with the requirements of the city’s
election ordinance. Mrs. Sweeney
and Miss C. C. Heid were appoint
ed to serve as clerks of election
and Mrs. J. H. Flower, F. H. Barn
ett and A1 Wigand were named as
judges.
These officials also will serve at
the primary election to be held late
in April.
The matter of a building ordi
nance was discussed at some length
and it is probable that this will be
one of the first matters taken up
by the new council.
A statement was received from
the Healy River Coal Corporation
in which it was shown that the
ligth and telephone plants had been
operated at a loss of approximate
ly $700 up to the first of March
jand the council was asked to pay
that amount to the company for
services received in the form of
street lights and water for fire pro
i tection There being several items
j on the bill which, it had been inti
j mated at a previous meeting, might
1 be recovered from the Alaskan En
; gineering Commission, and which, if
i so recovered, would considerably re
duce the deficit, the council voted
to pay the company $500 which,
; the council figured, would be the
approximate amount of the deficit
1 to the first of April, providing
the amounts referred to can be re
1 covered from the commission, as
suggested by Manager Donaldson.
The $500 voted by the council is
j the only money paid to the company
; by the city for street lighting and
I water for fire protection since the
utilities were taken over from the
commission last fall, the entire sum
requested by the company repre
senting a monthly charge of approxi-;
mately $100 up to the time thf
j statement was rendered.
The light and water question i;
' one of the big problems that wil
'confront the incoming council for
unless much needed and long prom
| ised repairs are taken in hand im
mediately, it will be impossible tc
operate the plant during the sum
mer months without heavy loss. The
! material for the repairs were re
ceived in N'enana some time ago
and orders are now being awaitec
from Col. Mears to permit the re
pairs to be made. The commissior
also has been asked to instal s
turbine engine as a further means
of reducing operating costs at the
power plant.
Messrs. W. H. Gileher and J. H
Flower appeared before the council
for the purpose of requesting re
ductions in the valuation of proper
ty owned by them. The request oi
Mr. Flower was not granted, but
the clerk was instructed to make a
notation on the tax roll, so that the
objections made might receive the
consideration of the assessor when
the 1923 levy is made. Mr. Gileher
protested against the valuation plac
ed on the Union Hall property and
called attention to the fact that he
could not appear before the equal
ization board because of his ab
sence from town on jury duty. He
explained that he had, however, put
in a vigorous protest with the as
sessor before leaving town and con
vinced the council that his taxes
should be reduced, which was done.
Treasurer Taylor reported tha: ap
proximately a third of the taxes
bad been paid in, and it is expect
ed th3t most of the money will be
in the treasury before the present
council retires.
The next meeting of the council
will be held on the second Tuesday
j in April, at which time the reins of
government will be turned over to
the new council, to be elected next
j Tuesday, at which time the voters
■ of the city also will choose a new
j school board.
The list of candidates, which ap
peared in Tuesday’s News, remains
, unchanged, with the exception of the
withdrawal of the name of Harry
' Davis, who announces that he will
■ be unable to run.
The time for filing the names of
• new’ candidates expired last night,
| up to which time there had been
! no additions to the ticket nominat
ed the public meeting held some
: time ago.
CARD OF THANKS
Mrs. Mellish, owner of the build
ing next to the Coliseum theater,
has requested The News to con
vey her sincere thanks to the many
volunteer workers and the Nenana
fire department, whose splendid
and efficient work so quickly had
the flames under control, thus pre-'
venting the fire from endangering
nearby property. Mrs. Mellish has]
visited many cities, but nowhere, in
her opinion, has a fire been more
efficiently handled.
C. G. Jennings, traveling auditor
of the Alaskan Engineering Com mis-!
sion, left for the coast yesterday, |
having completed the business which |
brought him to the Interior.
With an up-to-date line of dresses
yard goods, hosiery, notions, etc.,
on hand; with hats, blouses and other
merchandise expected daily, (for
Easter), 1 am forced to sell out
quickly. Fire and water caused my
eviction in the first instnace. and
the Mellish store building is to be
sold, in the second. With no vacant j
buildings in Nenana at present, un-!
der fifty dollars a month rental. 1
am forced to abandon my business f
career in Nenana.
My prices are so reasonable as,
not to be outclassed anywhere.

fer of two steam shovels which are

use in grading operations on the ]
north bank of the Tanana river.
