JERSEY CITY, April 7—When
the annual meeting of 'he American
Smelting & Refining company opened
here today for the election of a new
board of directors, there wae such
a largo crowd of stockholders in at
tendance that it was found neces
sary to adjourn to larger quarters.
The big attendance was attracted by
recent charges to the effect that the
Guggenheims were operating the
company for their own benefit.
The Guggenheim interests won
the preliminary skirmishes and mem
hoi’s of the opposing faction have
virtually conceded the election of
the Guggenheim slat-;.

Suppose a banker would agree to
place $2,000 to the credit of a
man’s family, issued a pass book to
the family and agreed to let thorn
check out the full amount if the
! man died at any time during the
i next twenty years, provided he
would deposit in the bank $100
every year; with the further guaran
tee that should the man live to the
expiration of the period, the banker
woifld allow HIM to check out the
money, and, in addition thereto, al
low him the interest earned on this
class of deposits. Wouldn’t that be
a pretty good proposition? It would,
but no banker could safely make
the offer—yet, that is in effect the
offer the New York Life Insurance
Company makes. See R. S. McDon
ald, local agent.

coming season has several import
ant changes, as compared to 1920.
The main changes are:
Via St. Michael—The carload
special commodity rate expires July
31, instead of August 10. From July
31 to August 10 the regular tariff
will rule. On August 11 there will
an advance of $10 per ton, instead
of $5, on all classes and special com
modity does not apply. The base |
rate has not been announced, but
will be some time later.
Via Skagway—Carload commodity!
rates expire August 5, instead of!
August 15, and all class rates ad- j
vanee on August 10, instead of,
. I
August 20. There is an advance on j
all rates of from $2 to $5 per ton j
over last year’s rates.
I General Manager Wheeler reiter
! ates his statement made last fall
! that boats will this season be tied
! up early. Unnecessarily late ship

the Iditarod river this season, but
arrangements have been made to
connect with Ira Wood’s launches at
Holy Cross, instead of at Dikeman,
as heretofore.

SCHOOL BOARD DIRECTORS
Only sixty votes were cast at the
election held in Nenana on Tuesday
for the selection of four directors to
fill vacancies on the school board
The small vote is attributed to the
fact that there was no opposition

appeared on the ballot, the printed
list being really short one name of
the required number.
Of the sixty votes cast, M. .1.
Cooney received 59, Fred Major and
Frank Tuefel, 57 each, and 37 of
the ballots had the name of Carl
Schmidt written in, as the fourth
candidate, thereby practically forc
ing Mr. Schmidt to remain on the
board.
The following, whose names were
written in, received one vote each:
Mrs. J. II. Scott, Mrs. Charles Stan
ford, .1. H. Scott, William Smyth,
J. N. Neilsen, Alex Fowler, Walter
Gould.
The board, when reorganized, will
be made up as follows, J. H. Scott
being the only hold-over member:
Fred Major and Carl Schmidt, re
elected; J. H. Scott, hold-over mem
ber; M. J. Cooney and Frank Tuefel,
new members.
The election board consisted of
Mrs. Walter Gould, Mrs. J. H. Scott
and Fire Chief Allan A. Johnson.
