FAIRBANKS EDITOR INVITES
NENANA TO CELEBRATION
Fairbanks, Sept. 6, 1922
News, Nenana:
Because of one thing and an
i other, the insufficiency of equip
ment to land the Governor’s special
! here before noon, Tuesday next,
and regular train that evening, and
because of desire to have Nenana
present at the most worth-while
I celebration the North ever held, the
. dedication of the college has been
j postponed to two o’clock. Wednes
day. September 13.
The Farthest North college will
' be the only one ever opened on the
| thirteenth, because the educators be
lieve superstition is ignorance.
W. F. Thompson, editor of the
News-Miner, has charge of the cele
] bration and he is out for special
| rates for the round trip from every
| where—and what he starts after, he
usually gets, be it virtuous.
The News-Miner invites The Ne
, nana News and all the good people
of Nenana to come Tuesday night
; and live through the night if they
can, and join the celebration of
Wednesday’s dedication of the great
est benefit the friendly North has
had to date, and guarantees to get
; Nenanaires home Wednesday night
i safely, if not sober—for who can
i tell what a Nenanaite will do when
i away from home?

CITY WILL RUN UTILITIES;
COUNCIL TO LEASE PLANTS
The city council of Nenana, at a
special meeting held on Tuesday;
night, practically concluded arrange
ments for assuming charge of the
public utilities, owned by the Alas-j
kan Engineering Commission and at
present being operated under the1
management of the Healy River
Coal Corporation. All that remains
to be done is for the contract to!
be prepared and signed, a detail I
that is to arranged immediately so
that the city may take over the
power plant and telephone system
on the first of October.
Examiner of Accounts B. H.
Barndollar and Electrical Engineer
John J. Longacre, of the Alaskan
Engineering Commission, who arriv- I
ed from the coast Tuesday morn
ing, met with the council for the
purpose of arranging the details of
the transfer. Mr. Barndollar out
lined the conditions on which the
commission would turn the plant
over to the city and Mr. Longacre
explained the changes planned to
afford more economical operation of
the power and telephone plants. ,
Mr. Donaldson assured the coun
cil that his company would not ob-|
ject to the termination of its ar- j
rangement with the Alaskan En-;
gineering Commission, notwithstand-j
ing the fact that the promise of
profitable operation loomed large
with the changes and improvements •
promised. He explained that the
company would have its hands all
henceforth mining coal and pro ni-^ed
that there would be a material re- j
duction in the price >f fuel • § soon
as shipments could be made over the
spur now being built from Healy
to the company’s mine on Healy
Fork.
It is the intention to build an
addition to the power plant build
ing to house the telephone equip
ment and protide quarters for the
clerical work of the city and the
utilities. It is probable that this
new building also will be used as a

meeting place for the council.
The present telephone exchange
building will be vacated as such
and the council will endeavor to
secure it for use as a fire depar
ment building, for the housing of
city and commission fire apparatus
and for quarters for firemen. This
arrangement, however, will have no
connection with the transfer of the
utilities and has not yet been ap
proved by the commission.
The power plant, only recently
improved by extensive repairs made
on the big boilers, will be further
improved by the commission by the
installation of turbine engines, one
of which already has been shipped
from the coast and a second ordered
in the States. The use of the new
engines will eliminate vibration a;
the power plant and it is expected
that they will also reduce the con
sumption of fuel
