.LASKA LETTER

SEATTLE, Dec, g. More than G.. OOG reindeer carcasses will be available for shipment to American markets through Seattle next year, breaking all previous records in this new Alas kan industry, according to announce ment of Carl J. Lomen, secretasy-xea- surer of Lomen & Company of Nome who is now in this city preparatory to an Eastern trip to organize distribut- ing agencies for reindeer meat, Lo- men & Co.,, with herds of 35,O0O rein deer, could only ship 1,600 carcasses this year because of restricted trans. por<ation.
 "This has been an epochal year in reindeer developments" he announced. "We have just completed two cold storage plants at Egavik and Golovin, near Nome, which, with our other two plants, will afford cold storage facil- ities for approximately 15,000 carcass es every year. In the near future it IS proposed to establish a chain of these plants on the Alaskan coast to Itchey and freeze reindeer meat, with a special refrigerator steamer of en- larged capacity transporting this meat to Seattle for distribution. If we can get the transportation, 5000 carcasses will be shipped in 1921"
 The early freezup. on the Yukon, together with low stages of water and heavy floating ice, cost the White Pass & Yukon s1OO,0O0, according to Hert, Wheeler, general manager of the railroad, who returned to Seattle head quarters after spending the summer season north. The company lost two river steamers, and were forced to place others in temporary winter quar- ters miles from the overhauling shops at Whitehorse. The Mayo section, pro- vided winter development work proves the opinion of experts, will become the greatest mining camp in the West. The Mayo district has tremendous pos abilities for silver and lead. Already some of the largest mining corpora tions in America have development crews working there and all during the winter this work will bs carried on. s,E Y

MASS MEETING AT NENANA
 EXPRESSES DISAPPROVAL OF ENGINEERING COMMISSION

| N@A0Ao NAOlA AS>N AA 4>H1>&AN0
 EXPRESSES DISAPPROVAL
 OF ENGINEERING COMMISSION
 Long - smoldering resentments against the Alaskan engineering commission, because of an apparent lack of interest in the development of. Interior Alaska, was whipped into flame by the receipt of information from Anchorage indicating a further curtailment of construction activities in this division, says the Nenana News. The public feeling found expression at a mass meeting held at the firehall at which it was de- cided to take immediate steps to bring about more friendly and interested attitude toward Alaska on 'ts part of those in charge of the government enterprise, or upon the part of those who will succeed them shortly if the plans of the meeting are crowned with success.
 It was the sense of the meeting, expressed in no uncertain manner, that both Chairman Mears and En- gineer in Charge Browne be re- r,oved from their positions without delay and that men be appointed to succeed them who will take a real interest in Alaska The re- quest was in the form of a motion which carried enthusiastically and the grounds for revomal are alleged incompetence. together with disre- earo for the purpose for which the .s,ilroad was originally intended to oe constructed.
 Commission Mcdonald, who was delegated by the Nenana Commercial Club some time ago to meet Secre- tary Payne on the occasion of that officials visit to the Alaska coast, but who was unable to do so be- cause of the secretary's unexpected early departure from Anchorage, read to the meeting lengthy letter which he had sent to the secretary, explaining the purpose of the mis- sion on which he had been sent from Nenana. The letter presents fully the situation in Interior Alas ka and should have proved very h. lpful in informing the secretary regarding local conditions.
 After numerous complaints had been aired, and conditions discussed at considerable length, it was for mally decided to name a committee to communicate with Secretary Payne for the purpose of securing relief which is deemed of vital i'm portance to the future of Interior Alaska and to the success of the government railroad after it 8 con- pleted. The committee named is composed of Commissioner R. $. Mo Donald, Robert Joseph Diven, Martin Nash. pr. J. R. Bowen, Joe Fisher and Herman Anderson. This com mittee met this afternoon but was not ready, at the time of going to press, to give out anything for publication. ,|
 Notwithstanding the fact that the meeting was arranged hurridly and without general notice to the public. there were about forty in attend ance, representative of the town and the district in general. Mayor Joe O'Connor acted as. chairman.
 The direct cause of the meeting was the receipt of instructions from Anchorage to close the local account- ing office and to transfer all of the work to the headquarters of the southern division. The. instructions were received by Chief Accountant Mcintosh. his orders being to. close liIiInllin,l.nuluiIIlDi,iniinpai',.a,Ilin

 LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE
 Last Wednesday night the Moose started off the new year in good shape, with its best foot to the front Many who had not been at a meeting for a long time were present and seemed to enjoy being there and were quite at home. Some new applications were re- ceived and some splendid talks were made by the brothers present. After the roll call all the members sat down to an oyster stew, and the way they all went after it it must have been pretty good. We are starting off the new year in good shape and are look ing forward to a year of continual progress. Next meeting we expect to have a large class present to be in itiated. Our motto for the new year is work and grow" Now, Brother Moose, we don't want you to watch us grow, but we want you to get in and help us grow, for grow we will in spite of everything. We can't be stopped. When men find out hat the Moose stands for and what they are doing they are pleased to become one of them

TIRE CO. MAKES
 LARGE GROWTH

It is the opinion of the Arizona Tire company that Phoenix is bound 10 grow and they back their judgment by the great increase in their business within the past six months. Although their quarters at the corner Of Central avenue and Monroe street have been plenty large in the past, they have found it necessary due to the great in- crease in their business to not only build additional tire racks. but to place a part of their stock on the floor
 Of course placing tires there does not hurt the many. but they hate to do it anyhow. Within the past week they have secured over car load of tires and tubes from the coast and expect anothery large shipment within short time.

GETTING READY FOR WOMEN.
Waterloo Busy Building Election
Booths For New Voters.

Waterloo, Sept. 23.-Election sup
ply houses all over the country are
working, at full blast, especially the
and paraphernalia for the millions
Of newly enfranchised women voters.
w. +. Parrot, manager of Matt
PARROT & Sons Company, one OF the
four largest election supply houses
in Iowa, today stated the booth
makers are buried under orders.
Since the law specifics that a booth
|shall be provided for every 60 vot
ers. almost every precinct in the
United States will need additional
booths. The parent booth costs about
$1S and the annex about SIS. The
average per booth might be placed
at SIT and the sum would not be far
wrong.
That the matter of expense will
be an important item as result of
the passage of the constitutional
suffrage amendment is indicated
from the fact that almost every pre-
cinct in the state will want more
booths. In addition, the supply of
ballots will have to be about 40 per
cent larger than in previous years
before women had the right OF suf-
frage. Some observers place the
estimate Of women voters at, an
even higher percentage. but Mr.,
Parrot said today he had observed
the proportion 'of the women to men
voters In other states and believes
40 per cent will be a safe guess.
More supplies Of all kinds will
be needed for the Nov. . election.
more booths. more ballots. more
pencils. more pollbooks, more in
struction cards, etc.
Counting the ballots will be an
arduous task the coming November
because OF the added number OF
voters.
