OF JULY MEETING TONIGHT
 AFTER THE SHOW

The members of the various com mittees appointed to arrange the Nenana Fourth of July celebration will meet at the Coliseum theater tonight at the conclusion of the show for the purpose of talking over the plans and outlining the program. Every member of the sev- eral committees is expected to be present at the meeting, for the suc- cess of the celebration will depend very much upon the cooperation of those who are to look after the many details.
 Chairman Martin Nash, of the finance committee, was out with his list during the week and he will have very encouraging report to submit to the general committee. The amount subscribed, it is under stood, is very nearly as large as was obtained by last years committee, which insures ample funds for a big celebration.
 At least three big drawing cards are assured for the celebration. One of them is the baseball series be- tween Nenana and Fairbanks, with a crowd of Fairbanks rooters on hand to lend interest to the games. Another feature will be a speed boat contest on the river between the Anderson and Hill boats, with possibly an entry from Fairbanks. And the third feature will be the holiday bills for which the manage ment of the Coliseum already has completed arrangements. A tug-of- war is also in prospect and it is possible that team of Fairbanks ans will be induced to come to Me- mana to pull against the Kestly outfit, which has issued a challenge, with an offer of a side bet of $1,OO0. And there is some talk in Fairbanks of sending a band down with the baseball excursion, to play during the Nenana games.
 These are matters that will re- ceive consideration at the meeting tonight, and the committees also will arrange for the various other events which form an important part of all such celebrations.
 The following committees will have general charge of the celebra- tion: Martin Nash, of the Terminal: :: o. M. Jackson, of the Portland, and

THE
BOND ELECTION

THE date for the special munich
pal bond election has been set for
April IL by the city council. At this
election the taxpayers of Montpe-
lier will decide whether or not Mont
pelier is to issue the coupon bonds of
the city in the sum of $4,000 with
which to pay the city's portion of in
stalling street paving on main street
from the Oregon Short Line station
to Fourth avenue.
II we are to Judge the outcome of
this election by the small number of
property owners who met with the
city council some days ago to enter
their protest, 1t is safe to say that
this election will carry in favor of
the bonds by an overwhelming ma
jority.. We believe however, that a
campaign should be inaugurated
soon by one of the civic clubs to
make a canvass OF the district ar-
fected by the paving program and ex-
plain to the taxpayers the great ben
efits that will be derived through
paving by way of enhancing the val
ue of property.
