Many Names Mentioned for “City
Dads”—Reservation Elects
School Board.
i ___
The local politicians arc gel
ling their heads together and are
framing tickets for the coining
municipal election. Many of the
present council and several new
names have been proposed.
Among the new names suggest
ed are At. Grigsby, the local ag
ent of the Wells, Fargo Express
company, lie has served in the
council for several years and is
well qualified to till the office.
P. S. Hunt, the local photog
rapher, is also mentioned and if
elected would till the office with
credit.
Harry King seems to he the
choice of many. He is a large
properly owner in the town .and
one of the influential business
men.
Arthur Fang is being urged by
many and he also lias had much
experience in city government,
having served on the council for
many years. He is one of the big
business men of the community
and is well qualified to till the
office and serve the city well.
Al. While is also mentioned and
several of his friends are desir
ous of seeing him elected. Ho is
a largQ property owner and busi
ness man and if nominated, his
friends claim, he will have a walk
away. They claim lie will poll the
largest vote.
Councilman Finical seems In lie
lli.e desire of many. He has serv
ed more terms in the council than
any other man and has always
worked for the interest of the
town. Charles Day, Charles Mc
Callum and K. E. Hilchie are all
being urged to run.
Tony Carlson and Ed. Wood,
who have served for many years
as councilman, have many friends
who are endeavoring' to have them
re-enter the light. Doth of them
would make it interesting if they
should decide to allow their
friends to present their names, as
both.have a very large following,
who will work to elect them.
Neither, however, has given any
indication that they would acceed
to-the demands of their friends
and run.
The elect ion will lie held next
Tuesday. A school director for
the city and three for" I lie Reser
vation are also to lie elected. iso
far I lie only name incut innod in
tile city is t lie Rev. W. II. Zeigler.
Judge Lyons, who lias served
many years on the school hoard,
iias been induced to run and no
opposition has as yet shown it
self. W. II. Caswell has also
consented to allow his friends to
use his name.
Messrs. Heckcy, W endler and
'J'<>i>IiIV are also urged lo run, as
many wish to get new blood in the
hoard.
E. It. Wheat, who for many
years was the city treasurer, has
been prevailed upon by his friends
to allow them to place his name
in nomination for the council and
he will add great weight to any
'ticket upon which his name ap
pears. He is the vice-president
of the S. Blum company, and has
a host of friends.

Cholera and Tobacco.'
For a long time it has lieen
noted that smokers are relative
ly immune to certain epidemic
sicknesses, especially cholera. i>r.
Wenck, professor of the Imperial
Institute of Berlin, has found that
by manipulating cigars in water
containing 1,500,000 cholera ba
cilli per cubic centimeter the mi
crobes were destroyed in the
course of 24 hours. The same
doctor has proved that tobaccoj
smoke rapidly kills the. cholera
gym. In a tobacco factory in
Hamburg not a single case of
chol.era was found among the
workers during the last great epi
demic, though they lived in dis
tricts most affected by the pla
gue.

Code Revision by the Sonata.
Juneau, March 27.—The Senate
yesterday passed, by a very close
vote, the bill introduced by Sen
ator Brundr, providing for a re
vision of the Alaska code. Sen
ators Roden, Tanner and Suther
land voted against the measure.
Alien Fish Bill Passes.
Juneau, March 27.—The Svind
seth alien fisherman bill yester
day passed the House, It prohib
its the employment in Alaskan
waters of foreign fisiicrmen.
Ceylon Tea.
Tea plantations in Ceylon have
been in existence only 30 years,
yet the annual exports of black
tea amount lo nearly $20,000,000
in value. Formerly coffee consti
tuted Ceylon’s main industry, but
after a disease of the plant in
1880 its cultivation was discon
tinued. Many planters, however,
recouped themselves by lea and
j'ubber. Thanks chiefly to the
former article, the island’s' old
prosperity revived. Today Ceylon
boasts 1,500 plantations.
Plant necessary to tea cultiva
tion is costly but very labor-sav
ing. The work itself is not hard;
only the climate makes it irk
some. What is wanted mainly of
employes is to watch machinery
and feed it from the stock of tea
leaves awaiting treatment. The
SvorkCrs are not Singhalese, hut
halives of southern India. A la
borer’s wages vary from eight to
16 cents a day, while a foreman’s
salary averages $200 a month.
Birds and Cyclones.
It lias been suggested that birds
habitually make use of storms in
traveling from one part of their
range to another. It is pointed
out that if a bird cannot find
shelter it must be more comfor
table on the wing than on the
ground during a storm, because
in the fiercest gale it (lies in a
moving medium, like a swimmer
in a strongly flowing river.
It is worth while taking a
chance on the $800 diamond ring
being raffled at Plant & Com
pany's, jewelers.
