Tho director of th? Bureau of
Mints puts .it rest the grey haired
fallacy that Nome quartz U brok
en up and not "n place at all. For
some unaccountable reason thi
bogey has been flourished In the
face of all who attempted to develop
the ledges here and people acted
as if such a theory could not be
Mr. Holmes said distinctly that It
is ridiculous to hold that all the
quartz peninsula bad been broken
up. Indeed he could see no cause
at all for such assumption and be
was surprised that any one could.
With this old bugaboo laid to
rest Nome can see before It the
prospect of a greater future than its
past. There is quartz here In groat
ledges and In great quantities. The
rich placers prore that they must
have had their origin in Immensely
rich ledges and some of these ledges
have el ready been opened but still
ther? exists that apathy which re
sists every camp after a certain per
iod of cxlstance and which is usu
ally as uuaccountable as It Is un
Notne decidedly has better quartz
than th? country around Juneau
Juneau for quarter of a century
')ail other mines, richer than the
Treadwell, lying at her doors, but
the same old apathy no doubt, left
It for the people of the present day
to open them und reap the great
Nome has the goods, and It lies
with Nome to use them to the best
advantage. The people of thl'
camp ought to open their eyes ti>
what they have it home and let
pessimism and knocking nursue thel
ways unheeded ? Nome Nugget.
