MISS NELLIE CASHMAN
ARRIVES ON WATSON
Among the arrivals on the steamer
Admiral Watson today was Nellie
Cashman, well known in this section
of the Territory. For more than forty
nine years she has been a resident of
Alaska and mining operator in the
far North and is now returning after
a winter spent in the States.
While in Washington Nellie paid
her respects to President Coolidge
and endeavored to impress upon him
some of the needs of Alaska. She
feels that she was fairly successful in
this respect as she declares the Pres
ident is a thoughtful and broad-mind
ed man who listens well and properly
digests the information he receives.
Miss Cashman declares that the senti
ment throughout the east is decidedly
in favor of the nomination and elec
tion of the man who is now so satis
factorily occupying the White House.
Her investigations induce her to be
lieve that William G. McAdoo cannot
be nominated for president at the
Democratic convention, but that she
thinks he is lucky in that respect for
his nomination would only spell de
| feat.
Miss Cashman is on her way back
| to her home on the Koyukuk river
| where she has been engaged in min
! ing for several years past. She had
i intended going over the Copper River
Railroad to the interior but changed
her mind and took the Watson from
Cordova, where she made a few days'
stopover, to Seward. While in the
East she met up with Editor W. F.
Thompson of the Fairbanks News
Miner, and reports that he is greatly
improved in health.
SELDOVIANS ASK SCHOOL
ELECTION BE ANNULLED
Believing that at the last school el
ection in Seldovia there wrere sev
eral illegal votes cast, a majority of
the voters have petitioned the attor
ney-general of Alaska for a nullifica
tion of the election. General misin
formation of the qualifications of the
voters,and boundaries of the school dis
trict led the judges of the election to
accept voters that were not qualified
it is believed. It is also stated that
several voters who were eligible, wrere
not allowed to vote.
