TANANA TO REACH
TOWN AT 12 TONIGHT
As nearly as can be reeokoned
by local representatives of the
American Yukbn Navigation com
pany, the steamer Tanana, which is
now enroute up the Tanana river
from Dawson, should reach Nenana
about midnight. The steamer is
proceeding slowly with a tow, and
the time of her probable arrival is
a matter of considerable uncer
tainty.
•’iiiiii
The Tanana will continue on up
the river to Fairbanks, and sail on
the return voyage from that port.
JOSEPH IS HOME FROM
VISIT TO FAIRBANKS
H. B. Joseph, chief accountant
for the Alaskan Engineering Com
mission in this division, returned
from Fairbanks yesterday afternoon,
after an absence of two weeks in the
upper town on official business.

GRIGSBY GAINS
VOIES AT NOME
AND ELSEWHERE
Telegraphic advices received by
the News today from Nome and
Juneau confirm the reports of
steady gains for the Democratic
j candidate which has reached Ne
j nana since Tuesday, and there is
reason to believe that outlying pre
cincts in the several divisions which
j have not yet reported will still
further increase the lead of Grigsby.
The Nome Nugget, which sup
ported Jones during the campaign,
■ is authority for the statement that
I Jones now has a total in the
j Second division of 283 votes, with
j Grigsby a close second with 241,
jand only five more precincts to
| hear from. Prior to the election
:the Nugget predicted that Jones
'would carry the peninsula by three
to one.
; The Juneau Empire, reporting for
j the First division, gives Grigsby a
j total of 902 and Jones 795, in
twenty-one out of thirty-seven pre
jcincts. The unreported precincts,
jthe Empire predicts, will increase
j Grigsby’s lead by a considerable
j number.
| The News has been unable to
| hear from the Third division, but
| a report doubtless will be received
| by tomorrow.

ECLIPSE MS
TO BUG LOAD
j The launch Eclipse arrived from
|F<-.rbanks late yesterday afternoon,
| enroute to the Log Jam to pick up
ja load of Tolovanites who are
I planning to leave that district to
| seek employment on the govern
iment railroad. The launch left
j for the Tolovana after a stay of
three hours in port, getting away
at nine o’clock.
Information received by Captain
George Black, before leaving Fair
banks, was to the effect that scare
j ity of water on the creeks of the
| Tolovana district is hampering oper
ations to such an extent that many
miners are unable to find employ
ment, and rather than wait for im
proved conditions, they are coming
to Xenana, where there is work for
all who care to sign on with the
j government.
j Among those who will make the
! trip out on the Ecilpse are Dr.
and Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Ernest
Peterson, who expect to board the
steamer Tanana at this port, en
route for the Outside. Their ex
cuse for coming to Xenana is that
they desire to see the town before
| taking passage for the States.
J The passengers arriving 'from
I Fairbanks on the launch were Jos
|eph Salka, Fred Truches, A. W. Van
j Sant, John Frank and Andrew
Zaboff.
FAIRBANKS COUNCIL
TO CONSTRUCT SEWER
The town of Fairbanks has under
taken the installation of a sewer
jon Front street, between the Bloom
land Hoofman properties, at the:
solicitation of the abutting property
owners, who agreed to furnish the
material. The work was authorized
at a special meeting of the council j
held last night, and the cost of the j
work is not to exceed $250 .
The only councilman opposing
the work was J. A. McIntosh, who
contended that all the expense
should be borne by the property
owners whose property is to benefit.
A. B. Funk, Albert Delano and
one other passenger made the trip
down river from Fairbanks yesterday
on board the launch Peerless, reach
ing Xenana early last evening.
A. B. Funk returned to Xenana
yesterday after an absence of sev
eral days in Fairbanks on business.
DEFEAT OF BIEL
The introduction of a resolution
in the lower house of Congress this
week, providing for the further sus
pension of the law requiring the per
formance of annual labor on mining
claims in Alaska, does not meet with
the approval of mining men and
prospectors in this part of Alaska,
and in order that Congress may!
be made aware of this attitude on
the part of Alaskans, the Nenana
Commercial club will request Alas
ka’s special representative at Wash-.
I ington, J. L. McPherson, to protest
against the passage of the objec
Jtionable measure.
The motion authorizing the club
protest was introduced at last night’s
meeting of the organization by J.
I A. Slippern and was to the effect
| that the clubs objects to any further
| suspensions beyond the present limit
! of exemption, as provided in the 1
^ bill introduced by Delegate Wick
ersham shortly before adjournment 1
of the Sixty-fifth Congress. j!
The club made similar protest ati1
the time the Wickersham bill was '
pending, but it was without effect. I1
The excuse of those favoring suchj'
legislation at Washington is that the '
suspension of the assessment clause *
will benefit owners of mining claims
who are still in the army and un- *
able to comply with the annual '
labor requirement. The answer of *
Alaska miners to that argument .s ‘
that a limited bill, providing a spe- 1
cia! exemption for soldiers, would '
meet the requirements <5f the emerg- '
ency without needlessly prolonging
the inactivity of thousands of min- 1
ing claims which should be developed 1
by their present owners or released 1
for relocation by men who would '
develop the ground.

TWO FROM FAIRBANKS ;

CARL WHITE DELAYED; j •
ARRIVAL UNCERTAIN ) \
The launch Carl White, which is
reported to have left Chena for '
the Tolovana shortly before mid
night last night, had not made its
appearance here at the time of go
ing to press, and the time of the
arrival of the launch was then a
matter of much uncertainty. The
boat should have reached Nenana
early this morning and the assump
tion is that the delay has been
caused by engine trouble.
When Seward saw that she was
not going to be able to reach her
quota in the recent Victory loan,
Gus Borgen, one of the live wires
of the city, sent letters to certain
business houses in the States asking
that they assist the city in reaching
the quota. Mr. Borgen received
two answers to his letters, increas
ing the subscriptions credited
Seward by over $3,000.
