GOLD DREDGES ON
TRIP TO STATES
H. R. Edwards, general super
intendent of the Hammon Conso
lidated Gold Co. of Nome, recent
ly sailed for Seattle from Seward
Mr. Edwards had made the trip
from Nome to the Alaska railroad
by dog team with Leonard Sep
pala, the well known dog mush
of Nome, and his prize winning
team of seventeen Siberian dogs
rhe trip took twenty-one days
md was one of the most enjoy
ible he had ever taken, so Mr.
ul wards stated.
He said that although the dis
rict had suffered somewhat from
| a shortage of water, the extreme
length of the season had enabled
the company to operate the dred
ges up to a few days before
Christmas. The company operat
eda hydraulic plant in connection
with the dredges. This was shut
down a short lime in July and
■ August Nearly !lG0 men are ear
riedon the payroll, Nome benefit
ing greatly by the demand for la
bor. By the installation of the
cold water method of thawing
the ground an enormous saving
was effected this season. A crew
of seventy-live men was engaged
in driving cold water points at
sixteen foot intervals. The temp*1
rature of the water used varied
from just above freezing to warm
