The members of the Nenana
school board met at the schoolhouse
last, night for the purpose of reor- tl
ganization, the retirement of cer- 0
tain of the members and the ex- p
piration of the terms of others ne- tl
cessitating the selection of a new c
board of officers. All the members s
f of the new board were present, with h
the exception of George W. Pen
: nington, who has not yet returned a
from the Outside. is
Robert Joseph Diven, a new mem- c
ber, was elected president of the o
board, to fill the vacancy caused by u
the retirement of Mrs. Sweeney, who a
has served in that capacity since the p
organization of the school district, a
John H. Scott was re-elected secre- o
tary, and George W. Pennington was p
re-elected treasurer. Carl Schmidt ii
is the new assessor of the board,
taking the place of Mrs. Ellenson, p
who retired from the board some c
time ago to go Outside. s
The collection of taxes, under the o
provisions of the new law passed by j
the last legislature, was assigned to li
J. A. Slippem, by appointment, -with “
instructions to start the work im- a
mediately. The law in question, a 1
review of which appeared in the p
columns of The News some time t
ago, provides for the collection of a c
tax of $5 from every male resident f
of the territory, between the ages
of 21 and 50 years. r
The selection of teachers for the e
coming year was made at a previ- 1
ous meeting of the board, the mem- v
bers having been unanimous in their r
decision to re-employ Miss Luella c
Shaffer as principal and Mrs. M. A. h
Schaeffer as teacher of the lower v
grades. Whether or not a third I
teacher will be engaged will depend v
entirely upon developments of the t
next few weeks. The selection of i
a janitor has also been deferred c
until a later meeting. i

MRS. JAMES LAVIN
BY RECENT AID
—
“All that the mining men of the
antishna want,” said James Haney,
le other day, to a representative
T The Xenana News, “is a chance !
i land supplies somewhere near j
leir property at a reasonable cost.1
iven that chance, they will soon j
tow what kind of a camp they
ive over there.”
Mr. Haney, who recently acquired
number of options on some prom
ing properties in the Kantishna
juntry, and who now has a force
f men engaged in development j
ork, was in Xenana several days!
?o, enroute to Fairbanks with sam- j
les of rock which he will hav« ;
;sayed at the government testing ;
Bice in the upper town. He ex
ects to return to the diggings with- :
i a few days.
“The recent improvement of the
ack trail from Roosevelt to Moose ;
reek, a distance of twenty miles, i
lows what can be done in the way '
f reducing hauling costs by the
idicious expenditure of a few dol
irs,” continued the mining man.
Before this work was done it was
task to get across the country,
’ow our horses are packing 200
ounds each and making a round
rip between Roosevelt and our
amp, 10 miles beyond Moose, every:
ve days.”
i
5lr. Haney says that the trail has •
lade the development of his prop
rties possible on a small scale.
Without it, he could do nothing;'
nth a still better trail he could do |
luch more, and so could all the j
ther mining men in that district, j
e points out. He believes that a
ragon road could be built between
loosevelt and Moose for $5,000
.•hich would enable the miners of
be Kantishna to take their outfits '
ito the district at greatly reduced
ost during the season when grub
i most needed. “Such a road,”
e says, “would actually serve the
eeds of the district until sufficient
howing has been made to convince
'ongress of the need of a perma
ent wagon road from the heart of
he district to some point on the
ailroad.”
A wagon road feeder, connecting
he Kantishna with the railroad,
I’ould cost a quarter of a million
ollars. which is a larger expendi
ure than can be obtained through
he regular channels. Both Mr.
lanev and Divisional Road Commis
ioner Sheldon, who was in N'enana
ast week looking into Kantishna
oad needs, agree that a special
ppropriation will be necessary and
hat temporary relief in the shape
f a less costly road from the Kan
ishna river to Moose creek should
irst be sought.
Mr. Haney has a force of four
nen at work on his properties on i
he divide between Eureka and Fri
lay creeks, and at the time he came
iut the shaft had reached a depth
if 25 feet. Two horses are being
ised to pack supplies to the camp
rom Roosevelt landing. Later in ’
he season, more men probably will
>e put to work, and eventually Mr.
daney expects to employ a large
’orce.
The Cascade Laundry has plenty
if hot soft water at all times. New
>ath rooms, fully equipped and san
tary, with special rooms for ladies,
fou get -abate with $2.50 laundry,
ehich applies on bath, or pay 50c
>er bath.
