Mrs. Hatcher, the earnest and
charming organizer of the W. C. T.
U. made a distinctly favorable im
pression on Nome and left behind
many signs also that her work has
not been in vain. She has estab
lished a strong organization in
Nome and also founded a branch of
the Loyal Temperance Legion for
children under sixteen with many
members. The women of Nome
were -especially attracted by her sin
cerity and fascinating personality
and the influence of her visit will
surely be felt when Nome has its
next election on the liquor or no
liquor question. Owing to having
to attend the convention of her or
ganization, she was unable to pro
long her visit here.

How is it that Arctic explorers,
traders and travellers are always
wearing a darker weather beaten
tint than even those who live in the
tropics? This question suggests it
self seeing Captain Anderson of the
Gladiator who arrived yesterday
from Herschel Island after a pro
longed sojourn in Arctic waters.
Captain Anderson left Herschell on
July 26 and although there wasn’t
much of an opening in the ice, he
had ample clear water with from
four to six fathoms under his craft
all the way to Point Barrow which
he reached on August 1. He left
behind the police at Herschell and
that’s about all and did not see ex
plorer Stefannson or any of his par
ty since he left Bank’s Land on
September 4, 1915 and all were well
then and well supplied with provi
sions and necessaries. Stefannson
according to the understanding at
that time was to winter in North
west Banks Land with a view of
proceeding with his explorations,
but since thqn nothing has been
heard of him. Captain Anderson
brought Lane’s furs to Point Bar
row and coming from Barrow
where he encountered the Herman,
he met Captain Beckland with the
Holmes off Icy Cape. They did not
see the C*bast Guard steamer Bear.
He visited Point Hope on the way
down and this side of Barrow did
not encounter any ice so had an un
eventful trip. The southern party
of the Stefannson expedition is
wintering at Cape Ecksley and Alex
Allan with his boat, the El Sueno,
is probably with them. With the
northern party is Stefannson and
the Mary Sachs, North Star and
Polar Bear while with the southern
is the schooner Alaska. Last winter
was an average one, neither exces
sively mild nor excessively cold and
the spring averaged up with other
open seasons. Anderson acquired
the Gladiator in the Arctic, the con
sideration being in the neighbor
hood of $3,500. He has a large
supply of furs etc. and will re
plenish his trading stock and again
return. There was nothing of an
eventful nature to be reported and
in this case no news is good news.
Let ns estimate on /our Job Work
' Colonel Richardson, the head o
the Alaska Road Commission, con
eluded the last lap of his inspectioi
trip when he reached Nome on thi
Umatilla from St. Mike's havinf
come down the river on the Susie
He made a trip with Superintenden
Jones and C. E. Darling to the nev
bridge In an auto where he express
ed himself as satisfied with th<
work of the commission at Snak<
river. He had intended to stay ovei
longer, but as his presence is de
manded at Valdez had to cut i
short in order to make connections
The increased appropriation has en
abled the head of the Commissioi
to satisfy Ruby's demands for t
wagon road and to effect other per
manent work long has been requir
ed. By tha* way, the Wickershan
bill which has for its object tin
abolition of the Road Commissioi
under tin war department, createt
such opposition in the Fourth Divi
sion as to lead to a demand fron
the Commercial Club that it be no
pressed and that body got an an
swer from the delegate intimating
that he would not press the passagi
of the bill this session. Colone
Richardson is satisfied that the bil
would prove disastrous if passed.
The School Board has set no dat<
as yet for the opening up of th<
Public school and are even just now
without a principal. They are en
gaged in improving the building
some of it has to be raised and ths
rooms painted and papered prepar
tory to the grand opening. The ar
rangements so far, for teachers art
more or less indefinite. A few days
ago Professor Baird wired his re
signation hut he wired that he could
secure a competent successor and
two competent teachers for tht
higher grades and the High School
The board wired- accepting Baird’s
resignation and authorized him tc
secure the successor named, alsc
the two high shool teachers who
will take the place of Miss Baker
and Miss O'Connor. Neither of the
latter is coming back. The two
new teachers whom Baird is secur
ing are Miss Majora White and Mise
Jessie Smith. So far the onlv teach
ers secured by the boan* are Miss
Orr, Miss Lehmann and Mrs. Ida
M Coke, the latter a sist. >r of Mrs.
Davis Runyan and a teacher with
ten years experience, now in Nome.
Ci< rk Grimm nays that they have
had over two hundred applications
from teachers outside, bur that they
believed it best to leave the selec
tion of t lie tv o to Professor Baird
who understands the course before
the pupils, and will therefore he in
a position to obtain the services of
competent teachers.
