This Takes a
Power Plant
An electric iron is just
about all an ordinary
electric plant can handle
under the best condi
tions—
But it’s child’s play for the
1500-watt Kohler Automatic,
with double the capacity of
most plants and no storage
batteries to be ruined by over
loading.
If you want electricity without
hobbles—all the light you need
and all the power you’ll demand
sooner or later—you want the
Kohler Automatic.
Come in any time and see a
mighty fine piece of machinery
at work. Or telephone or write
us for a demonstration at your
home.

BERS STEP OUT
The old Seward council seni died
gracefully last evening whereupon j
t’ne new council stepped in and made |
its maiden bow and was cordially
welcomed as befitted the august
heads who will handle the reins of
the civic government for the ensuing
year.
The new members of the council
were Elwyn Swetmann and Harold
Painter and the outgoing were Mr.
Heim and .Mr. Hofman. As they re
tired Mayor Ray took occasion to
thank them for their unselfish civic
work while in office and that he
knew that both had devoted much
personal tinier and attention to every
matter which had come up before
them. He trusted the people of
Seward would duly reward them in
the future by again appointing them
to office.
At the conclusion of his remarks
the meeting of the old council was
adjourned.
“The hour is now' set for the con
vening of the new council,” the May
or stated a few minutes later, “and
I will ask the new members to take
their scats.” Followed then the roll
call.
The first business presenting it
self- was that of having the city
clerk s books audited. It was moved
oid,s be called for the task.
At this juncture Mayor Ray era
phasized the necessity of economy
n the management of affairs of the
city adding “a hard year is ahead of
is. We must treat all matters in
ne same light as if it were our
>wn personal business for we are
tandling other peoples business. The
[uestion of friendship cannot enter
nto it.” His Honor stressed the im
tortance and desire for the city,
5eward being so designated by Ter- -
itorial law, show signs of progress j
n the coming year and that he
rusted and hoped all would work to- <
etaei or Seward and its residents,
fe said there wrere no real griev
nces on the part of anyone, any- 1
>here in the city, and that out of the
'resent harmony splendid results ,
hould be attained. (
He had the opportunity to con
cise, on Saturday, wi.L General <
lanager Noel W. Smi'h, of the *
Jaska Railroad, on the subject of
he proposed opening up of Second <
venue through to the wraterfront.
he Mayor stated he bcTeved Seward I
an obtain a tract of land for a mar- j
le ways and also, in all probability,
le prospects of erecting a small 1
ity dock appeared very encuuiag- <
lg. He pointed out a water-line
ver the dock, for the benefit of the 1
mall fleet, would be a most w'elcom- <
d improvement, also, the abandon- (
tent of the present floating doer ^
hich is a constant menace to all \
ho are compelled to use it. 1
For the purpose of appointing city j
ffices and arranging salaries a cau- <
as will be held next Monday even- ^
lg April 18, at 7 o’clock and at 8 j
’clock on the same evening, the <
ouncil will again set in regular
sssion. j
Oaths of the incoming officers were |
II duly filed and all claims against
le old council, as presented by a '
mall list of warrants, were ordered j
aid.
The report of the city attorney was
ead and ordered filed. The report ■
of the municipal clerk, the contents
of which will be published later, was
not read but ordered filed.
Referring to the reports, both of
which were read prior to the old
council stepping out. Councilman
Hofman stated it was the first time
he had recalled in years that two re
ports from city officers had been
turned in at the completion of their
terms. He complimented J. P. Han
non, city clerk, and A. R. Rucker,
city attorney, for their pride and
thoroughness in their work.
Hie matter of continued payments
to the 3. A. C. during the school
months, $25 per month, was brought
up by Councilman Painter. Discus
sion and action was laid over until
next meeting.
