I The annual election of officer
; of Xenana Igloo, Xo. 17, Pioneer
| of Alaska, took place at Union hal
i last night, with a considerable num
!
i ber of oldtimers on hand to par
jticipate in the important proceed
•mgs. The election, however, wa
a very tame affair, there being onl;
lone candidate for each of the of
fices, with the exception of one
In the absence of contests, the sec
rotary did practically all the votini
• for the igloo. Several of the of
, fleers were elected to succeed them
selves.
;
In addition to the election o
'officers, several new names wer
added to the membership roll, som
by transfer and others by initia
tion. Xone were on hand, however
to ride the igloo billy. C. M
Prince and Leo Rodrique were elect
ed to membership, and Joe O’Con
nor. Robert Benson. James Le
meiuz. and William Burke were ad
Emitted by transfer from other igloos
; Martin Xash reported for the en
tertainment committee that plan
iwere being formulated for a La
i
jdies’ Xignt, in connection with th
installation of officers, which wi!
take place at the first meeting o
the igloo in January .
Senator Dan Sutherland, who ar
rived in town from the coast 01
Saturday, was among the visitin;
members present, and made a shor
talk regarding the change in th
pension law, made by the last legis
lature. The change had been made
he said, because of certain abuse
'which had developed under the oh
law, but he expressed the belief tha
the next legislature would put th
old law on the statute? again, as i
appears to be more acceptable tha:
the new one. Under the existin
law, oldtimers receiving pensio
money must first deed all their prop
erty, if they have any, to the Ter
ritory. Xearly every oldtimer. th
senator pointed out, has wildca
claims which he is reluctant to par
with.
The officers elected last nigh
were: Martin Xash. president
George S. Smith, first vice-president
John J. O'Brien, second vice-presi
dent; J. A. Slippern. treasurer
Frank Rourke. secretary; Ed Will
