withstanding Immense advances out
side, especially In Hardware and
Metal Goods, we are still selling jo
I the basis of goods purchased tne
past two or three years.
We will sell for cash only at these
prices, and for a limited time, until
we bring our stock down to the re

If you have an order to be filled,
let us figure on it; we can save you

Next Friday is the shortest day

good old summer time.
Monte Blair who sustained a frac
tured arm last fall is now greatly
improved and the injured member

It is hinted that there is to be
considerable staking of claims this

A letter says that no workers
are needed at Dime creek as there
are more there now than can get em
ployment. So far little or no wage
working is being done although later
on some will be required.

The lynx reported common on
the creeks in the outlying districts
are said also to be the “wolves” which
are reported, attack reindeer. A
sourdough of experience says that
the native herders who reported loss
from wolves looked upon the lynx
as such.

Andrew Otterson is busy getting
supplies for a general overhauling
of the schooner Eagle which he is to
place on coast passenger traffic next
summer. The Eagle is the schooner
that made the scientific trip to
Kolyma river and is practically a
new boat. However to equip it for
passenger trade along the coast, the
rules and regulations require a con
siderable equipment at once compli
cated and costly. Bulkheads have
to be put in and life boats specially
designed to be secured.
Clothing cleaned, pressed, altered
and repaired at the Nome Tailoring
Co., Next door to Segerstrom and
Hagen’s.
Chas Mason arrived from up the
beach where lie is engaged in pros
pecting. He will return today.
Everything is very quiet up in his
section although much representa
tion work has been performed, so
some must have some hopes for the
future centered in that neck of the
woods.

The fact that there are consider
able number of reindeer wild and
maverick running at large near the
head of the Koyuk is well known. <
This winter some who have control
of some deer have been herding
their stock in the region so that
they can corral the wild reindeer
and mark them for their own.

Lomen brothers have evolved an
! additional trade attraction in their

if ticket number 234,576 won the
Victrola, tickets nos. 6, 16. 26. 36,

merchandise the sum spent and foi

Mayor Moller corrects the report
that he voted against the reconsider
ation of the Alaska Ligtherage as
sessment. His name was not called
and did not vote. The vote was two
to two. Two councilmen also
passing. Furthermore although
advised by the city attorney that his
power did not reach that of voting
except in case of a tie, he has been
advised that Mayor Blake wired to
Territorial Counsel Cobb and re
ceived instructions specifically that
he could vote and he did. In this
connection it may be stated that
legal opinion in Nome opposed the
Cobb interpretation of the law and
at least on one occasion when the ,
city contract for the pumping plant
was being signed, because the Mayor
voted for it, Attorney Orton insisted
that another meeting be called eli
minating the mayor's vote, as it af
fected the legality of the proceed
ings. The whole queston is a very
nice one.
