HOLO IMPORTANT

At the special meeting of the Ne

The report of these committees

Mr. and Mrs. J. C. VanOrsdel re-!
turned to Nenana.
Mrs. VanOrsdel made the trip to'

the upper town intending to go to
the States by vvay ol the Valdez1
trail, but owing to the ten-day quar
antine, imposed by the health offi-1
cials of the Third division against
all travel passing through Copper

compelled to return.
Mrs. VanOrsdel will probably'
leave over the Broad Pass trail.

membership in the club were con
sidered and the vote being favor
able, the names of these gentlemen
■ were added to the membership roll,
j A telegram from George Penning
ton regarding the Broad Pass trail
| was read by the secretary and filed.
A telegram from the Fairbanks
I Commercial club, asking the co
j operation of the local club in the
i matter of the Sophia inquiry was
j read. It would appear that at the
inquiry into the disaster, which is
to be held in Victoria, B. C. shortly,
it would be necessary for the rela
tives and dependants of those who
lost their lives, that the blame, if
any, for the disaster be definitely
. fixed so that the owners of the
j vessel can be held for the damage
I To ensure a fair hearing the cvi
' dence of the men on the vessels
which went to the relief will be
' necessary at the inquiry, and in
■order that this could be done the
Fairbanks Commerical club on be
haif of Fairbanksans who went down
on the boat, have wired the gover
nor requesting that the traveling
and other expenses of the necessary
witnesses be paid out of the terri
torial funds, and have asked Nenana
to do likewise. A motion was duly
made and carried that the support
asked for be cheerfully given.
The secretaray read a communi
cation to F. D. Browne, regarding
a _survey qf the McKinley Park
region, and his reply thereto. Mr.
Browne said he would do all he can
to help put the survey through.
Dr. Myers, chairman of the com
mittee appointed at a previous meet
ing to see about getting federal aid
to prespectors, reported that he had
taken it up with J. A. Davis, sup
erintendent of the Bureau of Mines.
After some discussion on the subject
a resolution was adopted endorsing
the action of the Fairbanks Chapter
of the American Mining Congress
regarding aid to prospectors.
The advisability of having a min
eral exhibit was discussed, and Sec
reary Joseph stated that the library
had a mineral exhibit case which
could be acquired by the club for ,
$28. The case was purchased and .
will be installed in the club chamber, i
Dr. Myers suggested that the club ]
make efforts to have a good col- \
lection of samples for exhibit at |
some desirable point in the States. \
On the suggestion of W. Julian, ]
the secretary was instructed to ob- <
tain a supply of maps of the Kan- <
tishna district for distribution. It (
was understood that copies of these ■
maps could be obtained from Wash
ington, D. C.
The action taken by the Anchor
age Commercial club in regards to
government owned steamer lines in
connection with the government
railroad was discussed. The sec
retary informed the club that a
letter endorsing the action had been
sent by the Nenana Commercial
club to the Anchorage club.
Several miners it was understood,
had petitioned for a change in the
recording precinct, as they were, at
the present time, required to go to
Fairbanks to record locations, etc.,
in the watershed of the Totatlanika
, which by reason of the completion
of the railroad to 43-mile was now
brought very close to Nenana. Sev
eral other matters pertaining to the
mining industry were brought up
for discussion, with the result that
a permanent mining committee was
appointed by the chair to look into
these things thoroughly. The com
mittee is composed of Messrs M. A.
Schaeffer, G. S. Martin, Wm. Julian
C. Sellander and A. G. Johnson.
It was brought to the attention
of the club that prospectors in the
Bonnifield country, who had hither
to gone into that district by way
of Fairbanks, were now utilizing the
railroad as far as the Crossing, and
are going in by way of Lignite
creek. This is said to be tfye short
est route to the Bonlfffieid district,
and a ferry at the mouth of Lignite
creek was suggested. The permanent

mining committee will look into this
matter and report at a later meet
ing.
The Jones joint resolution, which
makes it unnecessary for assess
ment work to be done on mining
claims from 1917 to 1920, came in
for some adverse criticism and was
condemned by all as a vicious and1
unnecessary measure. On motion
of Dr. Myers, the secretary was in
structed to wire to Delegate Wick-1
ersham and apprise him of the club’s,
disapproval of the law. Co-opera-!
tion for defeating the passage of
this resolution will be requested of
all commercial bodies in the In-1
terior.
