self.
A terrific, prolonged, and chal
lenging burst of applause greeted
him. For nearly a minute, and that
is a long time for applause, he
stood there, unable to speak be
cause of the noise. He could only
smile, and it was a good, honest
smile.
It was an ovation for a beaten
man.
Then he spoke, briefly and
warmly. He said he was withdraw
ing, and he asked his people to
work as well for Dewey as they
had worked for him. As for him
self, he said he would continue
to fight for progressive principles
that he seconded, all along.
He lost like a thoroughbred.

Kougarok Railway
Rebuilt To Nome

officials.
Mr. Jones was to have driven
the golden spikes.
This important transportation
link was severed during the war,
when the U.S. Army took over
the area, and has handicapped
the moving of heavy equipment
and suplies into the Kougarok. It
I was necessary to haul everything
to Little Creek by truck and then
transfer it to the railroad, thereby
increasing the cost of transporta
tion.
The famous little railroad was
built in 1900 by the Wild Goose
Mining Company and has changed
ownership several times. In 1915,
it was knows as the Maine-North
western Development Co., and lat
er was taken over by the govern
ment. It may someday link with
' a trans-continental railroad and
' be of major importance in the
development of Alaska.
