Civic Club May
Manage Library

Members of the Woman's Civic
club are making a canvass OF the
town to determine if they can get
financial support for the library for
next year, provided they undertake
to manage that institution
The trustees of the library are
trying to get the ladies to take
over the library, and operate it in
the future. The library, it is stated,
is about $500 in debt, and in addi
ton to getting funds for operating
it for the next twelve months, the
ladies are trying to get enough to
pay this debt. They are induced
to make this effort from the an
nouncement that unless they can
take it over, the library must be
closed.
After the committee having the
matter in charge completes it's can
vass of the town in regard to get
ting promises for library funds the
matter will be voted on by the mem
bers Of the club.

CITY LIGHTS TO
Be ON A METER

Hereafter the city will pay for
its street lights in accordance with
the amount OF electricity they con-
sumo. This was decided at the
last session of the council, held last
Monday night. and it Is believed
that it will result in great saving
to the city. The city will purchase
large meter and will use tungsten
lights, in order to reduce the
amount of electricity to be used.
After it was decided that the
city should have its lights metered
the council placed the matter in
the hands of its street committee to
meter.
A motion made by Councilman
Callahan provided that the rates
for electricity for residences be
dropped from 80 cents a kilowatt to
25 cents. and that the charges for
meter rents be dropped from 81 to
so cents, where the meter had been
used for two years. The matter,
however. was laid over for further
later meeting
Several merchants were at the
meeting for the purpose OF trying
to get the council to pass an or
dinance levying taxes on transient
merchants who, by reason of their
having to pay no taxes and only an
insignificant license fee, are enabled
to undersell the regular dealers.
1t was explained, however, by City
Attorney Marquam that there is no
legal way that the city can collect
license fees in such cases, so
committee was appointed to take
the matter up with the federal
authorities.
The legislature passed a law at
its last session providing for a H.
cense fee of 5000 on all transient
merchants, and the local officials
will be asked if this law is not now
in effect here A committee, con
sisting of Councilmen Myers and
Mack, was named to see what can
be done in the matter of getting a
law passed that will allow Alaska
municipalities to fix taxes and IL
cense fees of that nature
The report made by II. B. Joseph,
who was hired to audit the city'5
accounts. was accepted without much
discussion by the council

T0L0YANA ROAD

AT a special meeting Of the Com
mercial club, held last Friday eve
ming. Col w. P. Richardson, head
OF the Alaska Road commission, ap-
proved the suggestion made some
time ago by the people of Fair
banks, for the commission to spend
$4,000 on the construction of a
trail to the Tolovana. provided the
people of Fairbanks contribute an
additional $4,000 for the same pur-
pose. The route favored by the
commission is from Dimes to the
Tolovana camp. but 1t will not fol-
low. except in spots. the route now
used between those places.
At the same meeting. Col. Rich
ardson explained that it had been
decided to erect steel truss bridge
across the Cinema slough at Fair
banks, and thus it will not be pos
sible to build in this year. The
commission, however will provide
transportation facilities. he said,

A RAILROAD WRECK.

There is still another bill which

and mines, and the large amounts
of money damages collected by pro-
cess of law for the loss of life or
limb, or physical disability resulting
from accidents caused by the liquor
traffic through the bemuddled mind
and the unsteady hand of operators
and employees. Within a year there
was terrible wreck on the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western
railroad in which some thirty lives
of passengers were lost. The fact
was established at the coroners in

of human lives is not calculated in
dollars and cents.
1t seems incredible that business,
always Jealous and alert in other
way, should have endured for these
many weary years this outrageous
imposition and robbery Of the liquor
traffic.
The tariff question, with the pal
try millions which it involves, is not
to be compared with the liquor ques-
ton and all it involves, even far
beyond the two and a half billions
it profitlessly and injuriously drains
