Returning yesterday by plane
from Spruce Creek, in the Solo
mon river section, Tolbert Scott,
who is associated with Fred and
Bill Jones in the operations of
the Spruce Creek Dredging Co.,
told of running into tough luck
the other day.
Following their last digging
schedule, they cleaned up only to
find that the pay had run out and
that prospects were exhausted
for further operations in that par
ticular spot this year.
The dredge started operating
July 7th and ceased Sept. 21st,
putting in only 75 days of dig
ging. Mr. Scott says that opera
tions have definitely been ended
for this year, and that it is im
possible at this time to announce
any further plans for next sea
son. His statement indicated
that the period of operation had
been successful, but that running
out of the pay at this time, crimp
ed their operations seriously.
Mrs. A. B. Miller, formerly of
Nome, was killed recently in an
auto accident in South Dakota,
according to a letter received by
O. D. Cochran in yesterday’s mail.
Mr. and Mrs. Miller lived in
Nome for sometime several years
ago, and since leaving here Mr.
Miller has been in the Marshal’s
office in Seattle.

Selawik Trader
Comes to Nome
Business Visit
Louis Rotman, fur trader and
j Arctic store operator from the
j Selawik country north of Candle
I and between there and the Kobuk
river section, was an arrival in
Nome by plane today, for the first
time since Nome burned in 1934.
He is making a business visit
to Nome and expects to return
to his interests in the North in
a few days. Mr. Rotman operates
a store at Selawik village, and
another about forty miles above
there. He reports that the musk
' rat season this spring was unus
ually prosperous and that condi
i tions during the summer have
been execellent, both in mining
and trading.
Commenting on the prevalence
of wolves and other predatory
i animals in that section, Mr. Rot
man declared that the wolf sit
I nation appeared to be just as
srrious as ever and that this com
ing winter they may expect and
even larger force of destruction
from these animals, unless appear
ances are deceiving.
While a great deal of the com
ment on this situation has been
over-publicized, said Mr. Rotman,
it is beyond doubt a serious ques
tion, and one that will require
much work and effort to correct.
The results of the marauding
bands of wolves are apparent on
all sides, and especially regards
fox and other fur-bearing ani
mals. These animals are rapidly
being either driven out of the
country or being killed, and a
valuable source of wealth and
industry, cut off, he declared.
