SENATE TAKES UP BUDGET FOR
 THE TERRITORY
Two Thousand Dollar Item for Governors Salary Is,
 First One Stricken.

The appropriation measure of the Territory was taken up in the. Sen ate this afternoon at o'clock. This is known as H. B. No. AZ, an aci to make appropriations for the ex rense of the Territory of Alaska until March 31, 1923
 The very first appropriation, that of $2,000 annually for the salary of the Governor of the Territory was stricken. It was the opinion that as the Governor of the Territory is paid out of the Federal fund, as he is a Federal official, it would not be con sistent to meddle with his salary.
 letter was read from the Cover nor, mentioning the fact that there should be included in the bill con- tingent fund of $1,200 for expenses of the governor for the annual trip to Washington, D. c.
 Gov. Riggs also recommended an additional appropriation of $6,200 for a clerk in the governors office to take over dutes of the Bureau of Publicity, as at this time it seems certain that Bureau will be abolished. An appropriation of $2,4O0 was also asked to defray expenses of the Ter ritorial Museum until that institu- tion has sufficient membership to be self-maintaining #

CITY LICHTERACE PLANT AT NOME
 IS NOW PLANNED
Mass Meeting Held to Per- feet Plans for Proposed
 Municipal Enterprise.
Special to The Empire.)

NOME Alaska, May 3-Blocked from securing the plant of the Alaska Lighterage Company for han ding freight at this port, a mass meeting was held here. yesterday for the perfecting of plans to establish mhnicipally-o and controlled lightera'ge plant. A committee ol citizens is going ahead with prepa, rations to secure the necessary equip ment and Nome wills back the under taking.
 Until adequate lighterage facili. ties are assured, the people of this district will be cut off from direct connection with the States. The Alaska Steamship Company has wired that it is withholding sailing until such facilities are assured.
 When it was definitely known some time ago that the Alaska Light craze Company would not operate this year, with the understanding that a bill would be introduced in the Legislature granting Nome au- thority to engage in the lighterage | business, Nome citizens immediately got in touch with the company for the purpose of buying or leasing it's plant. The company has turned down the offer to buy at $6000O and also refuses to operate. All nego tiations between the lighterage peo pie and Nome have ended.
 House Bill No. Al, by MT. Coch ran. of Nome. contains the authorit, mentioned above and has beer passed by both houses of the Terri torial Legislature and will be sent to Gov Riggs at once for his sig nature Gov. Riggs said early to day that he had not seen cop. of the measure, but he was favorth!y impressed with its purpose and would sign it unless some unSur mOuutable obstacle was contained in it which he did not think prob able He also said that he believed that Nome had adopted thc only practicable method of solving its lighterage problem and that he greatly admired the spirit ct inde pendence shown by the citizens o1 that city.
