Appearing Monday night was D. L..Mosier, who has a rabbitry on the Old Fort.road.

Councilman Walter Wiesen- danger reported that he and City Engineer is. A. xnoinas nad Dcen out inspecting the city dump along the Old Fort road and that tne ruooisn was uemg cieaneci out and a fence built. He said that as soon as bulldozers were available to push the remaining garbage over the hill and out ot sight, the ruobisn eye sore along that road will disappear alto gether. Councilman J. J.- Keller said that he had been out to the dog kennels and he said a plan was underway to move he kennels several hundred feet from their present location where' residents of that area would not be able to hear the barking , dogs. , The city fathers did not take any definite stand on this matter at last night's session.

A. Erdahl told the city council today. Ho further said that the first electricity from the new project could be. expected October 23, one year later than had been estimated in May, 1943.

VOTE CONTEST SPIRITED IN WASHINGTON SEATTLE, . July 11 (IP) Spirited contests over nomina tions lor governor, U. S. senator and the first district (Scattlc Bremerton) scat in congress were expected to draw. 900,000 out of 800,000 registered voters to the Washington - polls In today's primary election. Gov.- Arthur B. Langlic, re publican, Is the only major of fice incumbent facing a chal lenge for rcnomination. Louis Wasmer, Spokane radio station owner, has made an aggressive campaign against the governor. U. S. Senator Mon C. Wall gren is unopposed for the demo cratic nomination for governor. Because of his lack of competi tion, cross-party voting by dem ocrats may affect the republican outcome. Under Washington election laws, voters can switch their votes between parties in the primary, and there iiave been reports that many democratic voters might jump Into the re publican gubernatorial column in an attempt to bring defeat to Governor Langlie and eliminate him from the November elec tion race. Eleven republicans and three democrats seek nomination to the senate seat which Homer T. Bone is relinauishine after 12 years to take a federal court ap pointment. Rep. Warren G. Magnuson is one of the demo crats seeking Bone's seat. His elimination from the congression al contest brought 10 republicans and eight democrats into the scramble to become his successor. Incumbent congressmen in tho states other five districts arc unopposed for renomination. Elks to Sponsor Servicemen's Dance '.
