Business Men Meet
Talk Civic Plans
Fire protection, telephone anil other
matter of importance to the tow n were
discussed informally at a meeting of Ne
:iam business men held at the office of
Commissioner Boris Thursday after
noon. Commissioner Riggs was pres
ent and expressed a willingness to as
sist in every wav possible the plans
which were outlined at the meeting.
Of first importance to the town is the ^
matter of fire protection, and :l is ; rob
able that definite action with regard to
the organization of a volunteer depart
ment will be taken at another meeting
to be held during the coming week
This Question received verv thorough
discussion and it seemed to be the gen
eral opinion that something should
done at once. Commissioner Riggs
-tated that the Government’s chemical
engine, which is now housed rear the
Commission buildings, would be placed
at the disposal cf the town in case of
fire. He also informed those present
that the power plant would soon be
reads to supplv wattr for fire fighting
purposes but that it would lie necessary
for the business men of the town to pro
vide sufficient hose to carrv the water
to the lire. He said further that he
knew of a P'lantity or sccotid-han 1 hose
mat could be procured and that new
hose could be purchased in I'aifbanks.
This matter will be inquired irito imme
diately ar.d a report rendered at the
meeting to e he-1 1 next week at which
time the question of raising the necess
ary funds will be discusse i. The Com
mission w:T supply 8PJ feet of hose, or
enough to carry the water from the
power plant to the corner of First and
A streets.
A number present expressed tire ire
(ief that a night watchman should i<e
employed bv the town to serve in the
dual capacity of marshal and fire chief,
and it is probable that someone will be
appointed a’- the meeting Wednesday.
Regarding a telephone system Com
missioner Riggs stated that he preferred
not to make that a part of the Commiss
ion's business. Several applications for
franchises, he said., had been received
from priva'e concerns an-1 he considered
it advisable to permit one of them to
operate the system. He was not cer
tain, however, that a franchise could be
granted in a government townsite and
he promised to inquire into the matter
and report at a later date.
The business men were informed by
the Commisssoner that the Government
lighting plant would soon be ready to
serve the public with electricity.

Frank Manton Here
j
Frrr.k P. Manton. the well-known
prospertor and miner ol the Fairbanks
district, passed through here several
days ago en route np river from the
Kantishna country. He made the trip
in a launch in company w ith Fred Allen
of Fairbanks creek.
The oldtimer reports the Kantishna
quiet, with only about seventeen men
distributed between Glacier and Dia
mond Citv, Game was very plentiful,
but at the time Manton left, the weath
er was too soft to permit putting tip
meat.
Regarding the reported sale of the
Taylor properties to the Hargraves com
pany, Manton stated that be was not
aware that any money had changed
hands. Taylor is now in the Kantishna,
having gone down there with Manton
i earlv in the month.
