It is impossible as yet to get a line

The Chamber of Commerce has
scheduled a raeetiny for tonight
where business of importance will
be transacted. As Sulzer is now the
delegate to Congress, how Nome will
'fare at the hands of the new repre

some skepticism among some mem
bers of the body yho have been de
voted followers of Jim Wvckersham.
Wickersham it was believed would
have worked hard for Nome, because
of the large vote which he received
as contrasted with Sulzer. As it is
private reports indicate that Sulzer
is sore on the Second.

Yesterday the last registered mail
closed for the great outside, con
cluding the winter overland service
in this ctass of mail matter for the
season. It was quite a large parcel
of registered mail that awaited the
contractor for hauling over the long
distance to Chitina via Fairbanks.
The last outside mail, letters only
to be dispatched, leaves on April 9.
A recent copy of the American
Issue, the well known dry organ,
commenting on the fight of the wets
against the Wickersliam law, pays
its respects to Colonel Richardson
as follows:
Col. \Y. P. Rickardson, an ardent
wet, is president of the Alaska
Road Commission and has the
spending of 25 per cent of all the
revenues of the territory and he
does not want this money spent for
schools. He spends most of his
time at the Army and Navy Club
in Washington, where it is comfort
able and dictates where the resour
ces of Alaska shall be spent.
Delegate Wickersliam is seeking,
in the dry bill, to have the revenue
of Alaska paid into the Territorial
Treasury to be expended by the
people up there instead of being
expended by Colonel Richardson
from the Army and Navy Club in
Washington. Naturally. Colonel
Richardson and the liquor contin
gent are fighting tihs proposal tooth
and nail. Richaradson is fighting
for his dictatorship over Alaska |
funds and the wets don’t want it j
spent by the Alaska Authorities for
fear they will spend some of it for
schools and they want to starve out
the schools so as to punish the peo
ple for voting dry.
The wets are yelling their heads
off for “home rule" to the extent
of having the Prohibition bill re
ferred back to the Alaska Legis
lature, which has already acted on
the subject. Then the wets are
fighting against “home rule” when
it comes to permitting the Alaska
authorities to spend their own
money in their own way instead of
having it doled out for them by
Colonel Richardson from the Army
and Navy Club in Washington.”
Let us estimate on your Job Wort
