COAL CONTRACT
The Doherty Coal Company has.
been granted a contract for furnish
ing the Commission with 10,000 tons
of coal at the rate of $6.00 per ton,
the contract requiring that at least
40 tons be delivered daily.* This com
pany has recently received a shipment
of mining machinery which will be
installed as quickly as possible. The
machinery consists of a coal washer,
screen and six-foot mine fan, all of
which will be propelled by steam, boil
ers having already been secured for
this purpose. The company expects
with the use of this machinery to turn
out a uniform grade of clean coal for
all future shipments. Later on a
crusher will be shipped in and in
stalled. By the use of this the coal
can be crushed to any desired size
smaller than when mined.
__ _ ■ • <« « ■ i i

and since that date this mine has sup

AGITATORS BUSY
AT NENANA END
A second strike at Nenana, occur
ring on July 16th, following a mass
meeting of July 14th, was settled on
July 18th, according to advices re
ceived at headquarters from Thomas
Riggs,
It was decided at the meeting that
a permanent labor organization should]
be formed and that the demands of j
the men should be raised from $4 pei^
day and board to $4.50 per day and
board.
Advices received irom rairuunxs
during the time the short strike was
on, said:
“Not to exceed sixty men are
striking, and some of those have ex
pressed the wish that they had not
struck, claiming that it was just a
matter of their being coaxed away
from their work by agitators. One
camp, in fact, came to town on the
delegation from one of the steel rail
road, after being granted free trans
portation by Commissioner Kiggs, and
returned to work after they had lis
tened to the plans of the agitators.”
The Nenana organization is under-,
stood to have received support from
the union at Anchorage.
