Mr. Business Man-Look over your delivery equipment
and ask yourself if you’d be proud of your trucks if they
were parked in front of your home. If the least in doubt,
whether they create a favorable impression, drop in at the
NOME MOTOR CO.
Main Street, and look over the complete line of Chevrolet
Trucks and Commercial Cars—you'll find the type that
suits your business perfectly. You'll find, too, that Chev
rolet Trucks are as practical, inexpensive and economical, as
they are good looking.

VICTORIA PASSENGER
LIST SATURDAY MAYBE
If the S S. Victoria of the Alaska
Line sails tomorrow morning, as is
expected The Nome Daily Nugget
expects to receive the passenger list
in time for Saturday's issue of the
paper. The passenger list of the S.
S. Dellwood will probably be receiv
ed too late for the paper.
According to the reports which
have circulated this spring there
will probably be several hundred
passengers and The Nugget is going
to a considerable expense to obtain
the list of passengers. If your are
appreciative of the service being
rendered in this respect—Buy Your
Own Paper for 10 Cents Instead of
Reading Your Neighbors—Both the
other person and the paper will ap
preciate it more.
If the list arrives in time, please
do not bother telephoning the pap
er to ask if “so and so” is on board—
wait until the paper is out—It caus
es needless delay and trouble to go
through such a long list.
A telegram received yesterday by
the Nome Harbor Lighterage Com
pany stated that the steamship Vic
toria of the Alaska Line was due to
sail tomorrow morning, Saturday,
and the Steamer Dellwood of the
same company, Saturday evening,

Information also included in the
telegram from Agent James P. Daly
of the Alaska Steamship Company,
indicated that G. R. Jackson of the
Miners and Merchants Bank was
sailing for Juneau and would fly to
Nome from there, instead of taking
the first boat.

Lumber is being hauled from the
Snake River site to the rear of this
building where a warehouse will be
constructed for lumber and building
materials. A retail lumber yard
will also be established in the rear,
fronting on First Avenue.
Mr. McConaghy states that he is
having all available building mater
ials, lumber* furniture, etc., shipped
in on the first boats to take care of
building requirements and furnish
ings in Nome in the near future.
The building occupied last fall
after the fire, by B. J. McConaghy
in his lumber business was moved
Wednesday to a location just West
and behind the offices of the Nome

stood that the building is to be used
as a shop, in the conducting of their
lighterage business.
