BRANCH HOSPITAL
PLANNED FOR FLAT

Mrs. Davis, matron OF the Iditsrod
hospital, has been On the creeks this
week in the interests OF the sub.crip-
ti0n lists TO the hospital whereby for
a small monthly fee subscribers are
entitled to accommodation and medical
treatment free in case Of sickness or
disability resulting from accident.
Through the encouragement received
from the enterprising citizens OF Flat,
Mrs. Davis has decided to establish an
emergency hospital at that place for
the care of the minor cases that NAV
require attention. The emergency
hospital will be auxiliary to the Idita-
rod hospital, and the more serious
cases, and those that promise to be OF
long standing will be cared for at ths
lditarod institution as heretofore. Mrs.
Davis is now arranging the details OF
the new enterprise.
A May day dance will be given at Flat
Wednesday, May l, for the benefit Of
the emergency branch, particulars Of
which will be given next week Mrs.
Davis's laudable work has met with
hearty encouragement from the creeks
people and she, as well as themselves,
is TO be congratulated on the assured
success of the new enterprise.
The use OF the Flat City A. 3. hall
has been donated for the purpose OF the
kance. Mrs. Mckay, Mrs. Suter and
Mrs. Ives have the arrangements in
hand and particulars will be made
known later.

iremen were to be retained. Here
Mayor Barnes told the council that he
would put restraining order upon The
city if necessary to prevent the Two
men from being kept in their positions.
Only one Of them could remain. He
did not care which one, or ii it were
some one else, but only one man can
remain and draw a salary from the
city. II he were not member o: the
council he would exercise his right as
a private citizen to arrest this thing;
being in the council, he will most
assuredly do so.
Mr.. Mcdonnell suggested that i,
might be well to pass motion retain-
ing O'Farreli and McGovern in their
present positions till further notice;
ouL Mayor Barnes said no. He could
see no use in delaying the matter from
ime to time. They would stay in their
places till the first of the month and
then one of them will 20. By that
time the city pump will be installed in
its new location and the service of one
man can be dispensed with and will be
dispensed with.

Talk BY Henry Roden.

During the progress of the business
Of the meeting it was ordered that an
application OF A. E. Maitby for the
city attorneyship be formally ordered
filed. This prompted Mr.. Mcdonnell
to ask Henry Roden why he had not
applied for reappOintnent TO the
place, Mr.. Roden answered that he
had had it for year. The city
does not owe him a job and he does
not like to work for a small salary;
he had rather do it for nothing. At
the same time he approved of the
cut that had been made. This was
before the position had been abolshed.)
He said the necessity for economy was
self-evident, but said it was just as
little debt, and cited the cases of
Fairbanks and Nome, which cities had
incurred large obligations in their
early days and had finally paid out. BE
said the work Of the attorneys Office
was harder last year than it will be
again and the higher pay then was
but just. In conclusion he thank ed
members of the council for assurances
OF their support for the place il be
wanted it again, saying that no less
than five had given him such assur-
auce. Mayor Barnes said the only
reason he would not thank Mr.. Roden
back in the same felicitous terms as he
had himself used was a lack of the
attorneys fine command of language.

night were expecting to see something
sensational take place they were mis-

the matters in which seemingly irrec-

the participants were so cool and col

The business had not progressed far
before Mayor Barnes let it be known
that he would fight to finish for his
measures of ecol omy-even to tho sx-
tent of applying to the court for 4
restraining order against mourning
what he considers unnecessary oblisa-
tions. In stating his determination in
this respect the mayor displayed but
little heat, and the members of council
received his statement as if it had
been expected and was a part of the
regular order Of business.

Banks l. Rowland,

Under the head of reports OF special
committees in the regular order Of
business Mr.. Mcdonnell delivered a
verbal report of the committee which
had been named to confer with Banks
& Rowland and do other things looking
to the reduction of the cost in main
tanning the water supply for the fire
department.. He said each OF the three
members Of the committee had gone to
Mr.. Banks in turn and had pleaded
and argued with him, but reduction
to $500 q month was the best they
could get him to agree to. The $500,
too, Mr.. Banks wanted to receive from
the salary fund, instead of from war
rants on the general fund, which would
be unavailable in the meeting OF the
expenses of keeping up the service. II
was the recommendation of the COM
mittee that the offer should be &C
cepted, at least for the time being, as
nothing better could be had At the
present.
Mayor Barnes thought Mr.. Banks
ought 10 be content with having part
of it on the salary fund and the balance
on the general fund. Mr.. Wood, too,
thought $3.50 on the salary fund ought
to satisfy Mr.. Banks, and didn't see

City Attorney Abolished,

Mayor Barnes said he had been en-
deavoring to get around the present
expense for ground rent, but found the
best he could do was to have the rent
cut in half. He said he had come to
the conclusion that the Office of city
attorney will have to be done away
with altogether. MIR. Mcdonnell said if
any body of men on earth needs the
services of lawyer it is certainly this
council. Where are you going to get
the the money to pay him?" >qteried
the mayor, and nobody answered that
oftrepeated question. Talk OF the
city's needs and possible expsdients for
meeting them followed, and finally Mr..
Mutchler moved to declare the Office of
city attorney abolished and the motion
prevailed

how more could be placed there under
the present conditions. Mr.. Banks was
present and was invited to state his
side OF the case. He said when he
took the contract at $500 he did so with
the understanding that it should be
paid out OF the salary fund That had
not been done. He had gone to the
expense of installing the plant and had
not made any money; but having the
plant on hand be is now conserving to
reduction to $500 in order to keep the
plant in use and avoid trouble with the
city. He said he is entitled to have
his pay from the salary fund and with
out so having it he cannot meet the
expense OF labor and fuel to keep
going.
Mayor Barnes said he had figured OF
MIR. Banks coming down to SAG
month. If the city don't keep within
it's income it will not make any differ,
ence how much he may be promised.
The city's paper and promises will
alike be worthless and will buy nothing.
He suggested the postponement of the
matter to see if better arrangements
can be made. z motion made by MIR.
Bradley and seconded by Mr.. Wood to
let the matter go over for week was
carried.
