FAIRBANKS GOLD STRIKE RECALLED BY PIONEER
 MERCANTILE FIRM
An Interview with J. Howard Al-
 len, National Grocery Co

len, National Grocery eo
 Few perhaps realize the great responsibility placed upon the ear zsly mercantile firms in furnishing dependable food supply to the prospectors during the gold strik- es With their backs turned on civilizations. great armies of sour doughs and chechaceos practical ly placed their lives in the hands of food distributors. Failure to get food shipments in to the dis tricts. which was by no means an easy task in those days, would have been mighty serious.
 Even before there were any out standing gold discoveries in the Yukon Rver. Va1fey, <. almost forty years ago. the National z Grocery Company was furnishing the now famous line of Reliance food pro ducts to Alaska, at that time pfin- cipally in Southeastern and the coast line poirts.
 When the strike was made on the creeks now known as the Fairbanks district, the big rush began, the prospectors after gold, grocers after food from the stat es to supply the miners. There came to Seattle Alaska merchants seeking to meet the requirements of prospectors, many of whom were familiar with the Reliance brand.
 Dramatically, almost an entire shipload of foods from the Ma tional Grocery Company, large percentage of which was the "Re- liance Brand, we're placed aboard the steamer, City of Seattle which set out with several hun- dred tons of food for the Fair banks district.
 Shipments of large tonnage in those days were routed via St. Michaels on up the Yukon River to the Tanana River. up the Tan ana as close as possible to Fair banks at that time were $60. to S70 a ton: Added to this, the pro- spedtor had the expense of hauling his supplies to the creeks. As the pioneers in this district can con firm, the cost of getting food to the creeks ran as high as twenty five cents per pound.
 The freight cost was the same whether the goods were inferior or the highest quality Consequent- ly. the miners purchased the best mbAsy could buy, rather than pay high freight to bring in inferior products.
 Little wonder that these men not

DIRECTORS OF
HAY GROWERS
HOLD MEETING

At the regular monthly meeting
of the board of directors of the I'M
perial Hay Growers association, it
was decided that the campaign for
memberships would be closed on
April Is, 1894; that further mem
berships would not be accepted I'M
til February /, 1885, and then only
for hay to be produced in the en-
suing year. This policy was adopted
by the board of directors in order
that definite budget arrangement
might be made tor the years oper-
ationS, and in order that definite
plans might also be made as to ar
rangements regarding loans to be
obtained from the Federal Interme-
date Credit bank at Berkeley, and
from the Berkeley Bank for Co.
operatives.
The board felt that inasmuch as
definite commitments must be
made in the matter of these loans,
the number of the loans to be OBJ
tanned and the amount of hay to
be sold through the association
should be known as definitely as
possible.
The matter of obtaining loans
through the Farm Credit Admins
tration at low rate of interest is
one of the accomplishments of the
Imperial Hay Growers association,
said Hastain, president of the Or
ganization. Hastain is anxious that
all hay growers wishing to avail
themselves of these loan privileges
join the association before April Is.

CARS ECONOMY

Motorists who wish to get the
most for their money out of their
automobiles and tires will find it
genuine economy to have a thor
ough check of their equipment
made during April.
While winter weather is not hard
on tires, it does work considerable
wear and tear on the automobile S
finish, top and parts exposed to
the weather, according to John 3.
McNeece, local Goodyear dealer.
cit also is an excellent idea. :"
says McNeece, "to establish the
habit of having tires checked for
air pressure at least once a month.
1t only takes minute or two to
have tires checked and properly in
flated. This service is gladly given
free at our station and the Gus
toner does not even need to get
out of the car.
"At the same time, our trained
employees will be glad to inspect
the condition of the top, under the
tenders and other parts that may
have been damaged by the ele-
mentS.
1--WE have paints and dressings
which can be applied to cracked
tops, under side of tenders, or to
spots where paint has Clipped off,
in a few minutes. Many times, the
applications of few drops of paint
will avoid extensive damage to the
original paint job, or top.
Automobile owners who defer
red buying new tires during the
winter will not want to delay much
longer. With warmer weather, old
tires will begin to fail and the ap-
plication of new tires now will
practically eliminate the danger of
embarrassing and inconvenient tire
failures during the warm months, 4"
McNeece said.

ASKS
FOR SUPPORT
FROM VOTERS

AS a candidate for the office of
city clerk at the election to be
held Monday, April 9th. I wish
to state to the people of Ell Gen.
tro through this column, that it
IS a great pleasure to serve you
in that office.
I would like to call on each of
you personally, that we could have
better understanding and better
acquaint ourselves with the duties
and responsibilities attached to
the office of city clerk, and in SO
doing you would realize that l
am a public servant and not a
politician, for I have long realized
that the people on the outside of
the counter are the ones paying
the bills and are Que every pos
sible courtesy and consideration,
and my deputies realize this al
so.
Under the late John C. Neal,
had five years of training in mum
icipal government, and l know it
to be fact and feel that it is
agreed, that Mr.. Neale was we'll
versed official in municipal affairs
In his passing the city not only
lost qualified public servant, they
also lost a friend.
At the time of appointment as
his successor, the city council was
unanimous in their decision, for
which 1 am duly grateful and now
the time has come when the Of
flee is up for election and when
you go to the polls Monday, April
8, you will elect a city clerk to
serve you for the uneXpired 2 year
term, l am sincerely asking for
your consideration, and in doing sc
l feel qualified to serve you, due
to the experience I have had in
the city clerks Office. The city has
trained me for handling one of
the most important offices in the
city government, for the clerk S
office is the direct representative
to the public for the governing
bodies of the city.
I feel that friends whom have
not contacted, realize I want their
support and will give me that con-
sideration, and those of you I dc
not know, I would like to, and also
ask for your consideration.
Some of you will probably ask
"how long have you lived here?'
I have lived here eight years, COM
ing here from Phoenix in 1926
Are you a property owner?' Yes. ]
believe in our city and am buying
a home here, and have a great
deal of pride and pleasure in keep
ing it up.
Now to my friends, and all OF
you whose friendship I hope to
gain, when you go to the polls
Monday, if you feel I am en-
titled to, and have earned this
promotion, ask you to cast your
vote for me for the office of city
clerk.
Sincerely yours,
