them. '"Then bring in Jameson"
The chair in which she was sit

couch cover and couple of mys-

greens and browns.

turnkey came back with the glass of
water. When she returned the
glass, the man hurried away. "All

Alarmed and protective, Lee stood

Followed by the turnkey, Jameson

COUNCIL
 HAS MEETING
 DOES BUSINESS

The City Council met in session last evening. All councilmen were present except Sather and Seiden- verg.
 A wire from R. T. Gridley state engineer for the PWA assigned for Alaska was read in which he re- quested information if the City would rather apply for straight loan and not take the grant from the PWA, repaying the loan but at 3 percent. Mayor Swartz answered the wire and declined, stating the city preferred to make the regular application. The council approved of his action.
 Another wire was read from A. E. Karnes, Territorial Commission CT of Education pertaining to. the new school building for Nome. He stated that Col. Clark had talked to him about the fifty thousand dol lars already available and stated he would like to see Nome wait until 1886 before attempting to get enough money from the government to build a suitable school house. The council interpreted this to mean that it was possible at that time and probably would be easier to get the sum re- Quired. However, no definite action was taken.
 MT. Karnes did state he thought it might be possible to get twenty five thousand dollars, but not the fifty thousand required.
 Discussion as to better lighting for streets took place. Additional lights were ordered placed on Front Street. Permanent lighting methods were brought up but postponed un- til later date.
 The matter of dogs running loose on the streets during the day was brought before the attention of the council and Councilman Polet was ordered to enforce the ordinance pertaining to the tieing up of dogs between certain hours.
 A suggestion for a temporary fire alarm system brought approval from the council and some of the old alarm boxes are to be investigated to see if they will be serviceable during the remainder of, the winter.
 The dumping of garbage on Sea- shore Avenue by business people came before the council and was re- ferred to the committee on health and sanitation.
 The City donated $25.OO to the Community Xmas Tree fund for this year.
 Further details of business were disposed of and the council took up the matter of the meeting dates of the Board of Equalization. It| was ordered that the council would sit as whole as Board on Fri day Dec. IA, and possibly twice later than that, but would finish it's business of adjusting the tax roll by Dec. 21st.
 Upon motion the council voted to adjourn to meet as, a Board of Equalization on Friday of this week.

BOSTON, Oct. 1S.-(UP)-
President Roosevelt's instructions
to the committee which will draft
a permanent plan for regulation
of work assignments in the textile
industries tend "to prejudice the
freedom of the committee before
it begins its work." President
Ernest N. Hood of the National
Association of Cotton Manufac-
turers charged last night.
In recent executive order the
president stipulated that in its
recommendations, to be made be-
fore January /, the committee in
clude three principles, namely:
That no employer increase work
assignments unless authorized by
the impartial chairman of his dis
trict; that the chairman, on petit
ton of workers, investigate the
justifiability of existing labor as
signments and reduce them if ex-
cessive; and that decisions of the
district chairman be subject to ap-
peal to the textile work assign
ment board.
"Whatever the merits of these
principles" Hood said, sit is un-
fortunate that they should be
stated in an executive order IN
such a manner as to prejudice the
freedom of the committee before
it begins it's work."
