the sad news of the death of his

the young man would have joined his
brother Leo at Fairbanks this year.

HE HAD BEEN
MISINFORMED
A citizen who “likes tilings done
right’’ complained to Councilman
Joe Smith the other day that the
notice of election for the city coun
cil had not been posted for the te
quired 30 days, and, worse still, in
order to make it appear that the
notice had been posted the proper
number of days in advance of the
election, it had been “dated back.”
Councilman Smith thought the
complaint serious enough, if true,
so brought the matter up before the
council at last Wednesday’s meet
ing.
It turned ont that the law does
NOT require 30 days notice of a
city election, but 10 days only, and
furthermore the notices were not j
dated back. There was no need j
for it. The first notice of election
appeared in the Pioneer last Satur ;
day, the copy for the notice being
received several days earlier.
