Mining Property Assessments
Sustained.

But few changes were made in
the assessments of the properties
of the Odanah Iron company and
the Harmony Iron company by the
board of review for the city of
Hurley which concluded its ses
sions Tuesday. The assessments
as made by the city assessor were
in general sustained.
The testimony of numerous wiz
nesses for the mining companies
was heard Monday and Tuesday
and a number for the city. The
mining companies sought to prove
their contention that the assess
ment of their properties was too
high, and in view of the action OF
the board of review will probably
appeal their cases to the state tax
commission.
The property of the Odanah Iron
company is assessed at S855,279,
including real estate aud ps.soual
property, which is almost twice the
amount assessed last year. The
assessment of the Harmony Iron
com yany totals S215, 500. Last
wear this property was assessed a.
$50, 900.

Failure on the part of the Wake
field highs to make point from a
place kick after making a touch
down in the third quarter gave the
game at the local park last Satin
day to Hurley by one point. The
final score was 7 to 8.
Although Hurley was outweigh
ed they overcame the disadvantage
by snappy work and good punting
on the part of Wilcox. Hurley
made a touchdown in the second
quarter and with a drop kick
Wilcox added the extra point. The
locals carried the fighting right to
the visitors and during almost the
entire first half had the ball in
Wakefield sterritory. In the second
bali Hurley almost made another
touchdown, line plunges aud end

WOMEN FAIL TO EXERCISE
 THEIR RIGHT
Less than Half of Women Voters in Sweden Cast
 Ballots First Election.

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 2.-Less than half of the women of Sweden entitled to vote exercised tholr newly-won franchise rights at the polls in the elections of 1921, the first year of full suffrage for women, according to a report of the Swedish Central Bureau of Statistics just made public. However. the official report of the 1921 elections give the suffragist leaders at least two causes for re, ioicing.
 The men did not show a much bet ter record than the women, and the number Of women voters exceeded the male voters in the capital Of Stockholm by more than 1000 voters.
 The official report shows that 47.i per cent of the Swedish women vot CTS east their ballot. while G19 per cent of the men voted. The tota' women's vote in the city of Stock. holm was 76.566, while vote cast by men was 71.196
 The general impression through the country seems to be that the Swedish women have not fully realized the importance and significance of their new privilege. It is believed that in the future they will make a better showing at the polls.
 The heavy women's vote in Stock holm. which is to large extent an industrial city may indicate that the trade union members, grasped the opportunity to register their votes However, other women cannot be said to have neglected the ballot as whole

DELAY OF ARMY BILL FORESEEN
 BY COL. STEESE
Seeks Authorization for Ex penditures to Facilitate
 Early Road Work.

Anticipating that the army bill containing the Alaska road and trail appropriation will not be passed by Congress until some time during the summer, Col. James c. Steese is mak- ing an effort to secure an authoriZa tion for the expenditure of an amount equal to 75 per cent of last years ap- propriation, according to advices re- ceived here today. If this authoriza tion is secured, contracts may be entered into and expenditures in cured to the extent of S31S,750. or 75 per cent of the $425, 900 appropri- ated by Congress for the fiscal year 1921-22.
 Would Facilitate Work
 The authorization sought has been included in a deficiency appropriation measure on which Congress is ex- pected to act in the near future. It provides that in case the army bill carrying the Alaska Road Conan. sion money for the next fiscal year has not been passed by April 1, the Commission is authorized to incur expenditures in the amount stated above but does not carry any spe- cific appropriation, merely granting authority to incur debts which will be paid out of the regular appropri- ation when it is passed. Such au- thOrity, it is stated, would enable the Commission to launch it's opera tions at the beginning of the season, even should it's appropriation be late in passing Congress and would great ly facilitate it's work in that respect.
 Hearings Are Concluded
 The hearings on the army bill were concluded late last month be- fore the House military affairs com mittee. Colonel Steese appeared be- fore that body explaining his orig inal estimates and the need for ade. luate funds for continuing the AL

EXAMINATION OF THREE PROJECTS
 IS BEING URGED
Com m ercial Association S Suggestions Are Submit
 ted to Congress Now.

Initial steps have been taken in three Southeastern Alaska projects suggested by the Juneau Commercial Association to be undertaken by the Rivers and Harbors Board, according to advices received by Capt C. s. Ward from Col James c. Steese, district engineer for Alaska, who is now in Washington The three prof ects are proposed canals across Glass Peninsula at Oliver's Inlet, and across the portage at Hawk Inlet, and the dredging of a channel across Mendenhall Bar.
 Joint resolutions authorizing the preliminary examination or survey of all three of these projects were recently introduced in Congress by Delegate Dan Sutherland. It is be- lieved that there will be no opposi- tion to the resolutions and that they will pass during the present session of Congress No special apprOpria tion. it is explained, will be neces- sary for the work as a lump sum is carried in the Rivers and Harbors bill for all investigations and survey work which Congress may authorize.
 Survey Next Spring
 The projects were suggested last summer by the local commercial or ganization with Colonel Steese and some data presented covering each one. Colonel Steese turned the en tire matter over to the Alaska dele gate, as he is unable to appear in such matters before they have al least been sanctioned by Congress Should the resolutions pass by spring it is probable that the examinations will be carried out next season and a report made to the Board of En- gineers in the fall.
 Two Others Suggested
 In addition to the Southeastern Alaska projects, two were requested for interior districts. One of these is covered by a resolution asking for preliminary examination of the Tolovana River between it's mouth at the Tanana River and Log Jam; the other is for a preliminary examina ton of the Yukon-Kuskokwim port. age The Tolovana River was the subject of a survey made in 1916 by an engineer of the board, who re- ported favorably on the project, who recommended an expenditure Of SIP 900 in cleaning out Instructions to navigation in the river. His report was turned down by both the Divi sion Engineer and the Chief Engineer in report to Congress in 1918 and the project was allowed to die with out further effort.
