ELECTION IS QUIET
 TEUFEL GETS HIGHEST VOTE

The annual municipal election in Nenana on Tuesday was a very tame affair and the vote of such small as to discourage those charged with the responsibility of looking after the affairs of the city.

 Frank Teufel, proprietor of the Nenana Gardens, lead the council ticket with 8 total of 92 votes. Harry Davis received 90 votes, Ro- digkeit ST, Thomas ST, Johnson 79, Christensen 7S and Thompson 76.
 For treasurer of the school board. Captain C. c. Jones received l03 votes and Mrs. W. C. Steinmetz, for clerk received 102.
 For the proposition of electing a mayor. and three councilmen to serve ewo years, effecting at the next general election, there were 43 votes and only one vote against 1t.
 There were a number of votes written in on the ballots, five votes being polled for Oscar Rothenburg in that manner.
 The members of the new council will meet with the retiring council next Tuesday night, at which time the affairs of the city will be turn ed over to them, the transfer in cluding a treasury balance of ap- proximately s10,OO0, all of which has been accumulated during the last year.
