While Salmon have been any
thing hut plentiful in streams along
the coast according to reports, there
are exceptions and ocn notable excep
tion is the run that showed up Pil
grom river, almost always the best
fishing stream in this section. Mr.
Wheeler of the Iron creek road
house who has a fishing station lo
cated on the Pilgrim river close by
his well know hostelry was fortun
ate enough to take in two hundred
salmon in one day and he has been
kept busy in putting up this valu
able fish for the winter. Salmon is
over ten cents a pound in some
places at the present time and Nome
is not the cheapest place in the
world for tHis fish. That this is not
wholly a sympathetic rise, as affect
ing ail other commodities also, but
is due tr a scarcity locally is stated
by the salesmen. However northern
points say that the run lias been
very heavy.
