SAY MECHANIC USURPED
 POWER
Alderman W. J. Lavery Charges Voting Commit tee Did Not Make Ap- pOintments of Assistants Investigate Electrical Charges.

| Alderman William J. Levery, chair
 man of the voting machine committee, declared today that Michael Healy, 1 head voting machine mechanic went | over pae head Cf the committee in ! causing to be hired assistant me- chonics who received $2OO apiece for | their work. He further declared that
 Healy was guilty of usurpatton of power.
 The cause of -AIerman Lavery's LaVery's Outburst is the charge of 1 Edward c. Spargo of the Board of ApOrtiOnment, that the committee ex- ceeded it's appropriation designated
 for voting purposes. Alderman La very rising to defense of the commit tee, now defunct, declared that the aprotionment board did not appro- priate enough money and that the excuse of the board members that none of the committee appeared be- fore it was his fault as the commit tee is not apointed until October. He further declared that there can be but little saving in the account
 of tho voting committee as the cost is bound to remain stable. A saving he declared will be effected this veal
 over last wear when the cost came to $50, ,30S.75. This years cost now
 estimated at $28,000 will come to
 little more he said and cost of cart
 age, this year over last year, was less. Cost this year per machine ot
 which there are 56. came to s1O or a total of SIPS. Total cost last year came to Sl2S2.
 In regard to appointment of me chanics Alderman Lavery said that Healy, the voting machine mechanic, a.praised Mayor Atwater of the racr that he was Immediately in need of assistants, when investigations con- ducted later by the committee proved to the contrary. Fl eatY. wno is q Republican, with the assistance of the town clerk, the story says, persuaded the mayor to make the appointments whIcn he d-d.
 When it came time for the commit 'ae to make it's appointments there tee members are veXed over the mat ter.
 A further fact disclosed today is that the Board of AppOrttonment may conduct an inquiry into expendi- lures of the committee, partIcu3arfy one concerning the Gallagher Eeiec- tric company which was pad Q to- taI of S61S.6S for electrical work done on the 56 machines. Of this and S96 for use of auto The auto is said to have been owned by Ed ward Caue cher. The city was charg- ed SIP per day for use of the auto"

TWO KANTISHNA
MEN FOUND DEAD

According to advices brought to
Nenana this week by arrivals from
the Kantishna district, Rudolph
Lambert and Alois Keim, well
known oldtime prospectors of that
region, were recently called by
death. Lamberts, body, which was
in an advanced stage Of decomposi-
ton, was found by a searching party
composed of Dan Kock, Chris Mel
son and Charles Christensen. at the
head of Little Moose Creek on
June II.
Rudy Lambert - was prospecting
alone on Chop Greek, a tributary
of Canyon Creek, about 35 miles
from Eureka On May Is he paid
visit to Charles Rawlins at his
camp on Canyon Creek and about
two weeks later Rawlins returned
the visit. On his arrival at Lam
bert's camp he found that the dogs
there had been unfed and there was
other evidence that the camp had
been unoccupied for some little
time The calendar on the wall of
the cabin indicated that Lambert
had been there on May %, that date
having been crossed out in accord
ance with a custom followed by the
oldtimer and the majority of tbs
miners and prospectors of that dis
trict.
Being thus satisfied that there
was something wrong, Rawlins
went over the divide to Little
Moose, to the Hauselman camp and
formed a searching party, with the
result as above stated. The body
was buried where it was found
AloisS Keim became i'll about May
26 and was alone in his cabin for
a number of days, until Mike Lodi
happened along and rendered swhat
assistance he could. Keim did not
improve and finally Lodi sent a
message to Eureka. IS miles dis
tant, by Charles Rawlins, but when
the messenger returned with pills
and other medicine provided by Or.
Sutherland, he found Keim dead.
No inquest was held in either case.
Keim owned claims nine, ten,
eleven and twelve above discovery
on Little Moose Creek, and the
property will be sold by Rawlins
under instructions given by the
Commissioner Nenana News.)

Exhibits of Indian Handicraft
to Be Included in

A section for exhibits Of Indian

plans being made for the Country
Fair to be held here September %
and 20. next, according to state
ment made today by Robert Simp-
SON. Acting Chairman Of the Fair
Committee of the juneau Commercial
Association. That organization is
sponsoring the Fair and the Commit
zee in charge is progressing we'll with
its preparations.
Inquiries have been recently re-
ceived about the matter of having
exhibits of the work done by In
ians in manufacturing articles for
the tourist trade and to meet the de-
mands of the local markets. The In
1ians are said to be interested in
he matter to such an extent that the
Committee deems it advisa BILE to have
/ section devoted wholly to Indian
handiwork.
Few people even in Alaska realize
he importance of the industry which
he Indians have built up on the prod
nets of their hands" said Mr. Simp-
son. who is one of the largest deal
ars locally of these articles. at runs
INTO thousands of dollars every year
and includes not only what is sold
to local business houses for their
tourist trade. but a large number
of the pieces they produce are sold di-
rectly to the tourist and is thus a
means of bringing outside money into
circulation here. The revenue the In
dams derive from the industry aids
them considerably in earning liveli-
hood and many an Indian gets the
biggest part of his years living from
hat source" he added
