So many of the leading business
men of Nome have failed to blow
through with their taxes this year,
that Clerk Grimm is watching the
books with some anxiety. To make
ends meet drastic action as devised
by the Alaska law may have to be
used. It is freely admitted that if
the business men who are refrain
ing from, paying are bluffing they
will be speedily disillusioned and if
they mean to fight the city in the
courts and lead possibly to disincor
poration, the sooner the city learns
its proper status as a tax collecting
municipality the better.

There is just now considerable
uncertainty as to whether or not the
road appropriation which was elimi
nated through the influence of
James Wickersham was re-inserted
in the army bill. Nothing definite
has been reported in the dis
patches , and hence the public is
more pr less up in-the air. Steps
have been taken to correct this con
dition by learning definitely if the
appropriation passed of not. It
means something to Nome to have
this money available for work in the
Second Division ever, in the cur
tailed allotment usually tails tq
this section of the Ter
ritory. It is understood the Cham
ber of Commerce is making an offi
cial inquiry on the subject.

The Chamber of Commerce and
the City was busy sending dis
patches yesterday to the various
solons relative to the school appro
priations. By the way most of these
dispatches are sent as night letters j
and the public think that they have
to wait until evening to file night
letters. Night letters can be filed
any time and they are dispatched 1
subject to delivery the following
morning. The Nome people have
got the habit of filing all such the
very last thing and in consequence
they keep the lines congested to a
late hour when they could have te-’n
filed earlier in the day and ; tb
jected no incoming dispatches to.
any delay by reason of the exces
sive amount to be sent out. If per
sons can file telegrams or night let
ters during the day they will
greatly reduce the work and the
late attendance at the instruments 1
if they will file such in the day '
time instead of waiting until closing
time to get their message filed. It j
seems strange that in almost all j
lines of business of the kind people I
get the mistaken habit of doing [
everything ' at the last minute and [
shoving a pile of work over on the J
telegraph operators when the latter [
should be quitting as well as delay- )
ing arriving dispatches oh the last j
run.
