SOURDOUGH PARTY !
! HELD mj NIGHT
Entertainment In Honor of Governor
and Mrs. Riggs Is Very
Largely Attended.
Immediately after the picture show
last night the entertainment got up
i by Nenanaites in honor of our gov
ernor and Mrs. Riggs, took place ;.
in the Nenana Labor Union Hall and
was an unqualified success in every
■ way.
The hall, which was very taste
fully decorated for the occasfon,
was soon filled by a large and rep
resentative gathering for the occa
sion of the citizens of the town and
the surrounding camps, the seating
accommodations being taxed to the
limit, many finding perches on the
stage and many others finding stand
ing room only.
Mr. George W. Pennington, in a
few well chosen words, voiced the ■
: sentiments of Nenanaites towards
,the Governor and Mrs. Riggs, and
; bade them welcome to the city
i which they had put on the map of
: Alaska and helped to build up.
The Governor acknowledged the
courtesies extended and gracefully
returned thanks on behalf of him
self and Mrs. Riggs. He dwelt at
length on conditions as he found
them to exist in this vast territory -
of ours, mainly as a result of the 3
extraordinary conditions imposed by |
the war and deplored the lack of \
harmony and co-operation existing f
among the various Alaskan com
munities. The little petty jealousies
betwen towns and camps, he said,
had a tendency to retard and ob
struct the measures that were be
ing taken as well as those in con
templation for the betterment of |
conditions in the country at large. \
He eloquently and forcefully ap- *
pealed to the people to co-operate *
and assist him in his efforts to make ¥
living conditions better in Alaska f
for all Alaskans.
The Governor’s speech, which was
well received and listened to with
rapt attention, held much promise
for the future welfare and pros
perity of the people of the terri
tory, provided that all of the com
munities agree to bury their differ
ences and little petty and unworthy
jealousies and in a whole-hearted
and harmonious way assist him in
making Alaska a better place to live
in for all Alaskans.
The Governor spoke of an inter
esting visit he paid to the farms
in the neighborhood of Fairbanks
and of having seen a variety of
wheat that had been successfully
grown in the Tanana valley for the
past four seasons. He was so fav- j
orably impressed with the outlook
for the cultivation of this much |
needed product in this section of
the country that he promised the,
people of Fairbanks that he would
establish a flour mill there if they j
would grow enough of the grain to
warrant such a mill. He urged the -
farmer in this section of the country ,
to look into the matter carefully and j
make it possible for the establishment
of a flour mill in Nenana, which;
would mean a saving of about five ,
dollars on a barrel of flour in freight |
and other incidental charges.
At the conclusion of the Gover- j
nor’s speech, which was very heart-1
ily applauded, Nenana’s poet lau- j
reate read a very clever and in
teresting topical poem which he had
specially composed for the occasion
and which appears elsewhere in these
columns. He was heartily applauded
at the conclusion of the reading.
Mr. Morriss’ reading of the poem
was followed by a speech by Mr.
R. F. Roth, district attorney for the
Fourth judicial division. - He told
of the steps being taken by the
Government for the payment of
a bonus to miners and mine oper
ators which would make the resump
tion of mining on a large scale in
Alaska possible immediately after
the bonus law has been put Into ef
fect. Gold was a commodity that
was not affected by the fluctuation
of the market, by reason of the
fact that a standard value had been

set by the Government, and unlike
any other commodity the cost of
production had increased steadily,
while it’s value remained the same.
The granting by the Government of
a bonus of $12 an ounce or any
where near that figure would spell
immediate prosperity for our terri
tory, he thought. Delegate Sulzer
in co-operation with the gold mining
interests of the whole country, and
the secretary of the treasury, is mak
ing a strenuous fight to have this
measure adopted and made a law.
Dancing was indulged in by the
large and happy assembly to the
strains of the orchestra composed
of piano, violin and drums, played
by Mrs. Katherine Sholseth, Ernst
Berggren and J. Sellender, respect
ively. Light refreshments were
served throughout the dance, and it
was quite early in the morning when
the party finally dispersed, after
having had a most thoroughly enjoy
able time at the sourdough party.
