OVERSTOCKED
To the Public:—
We have just finished stock tak
ing, and find that we are heavily
overstocked so are making enorm
ous reductions In Hardware—as
much as 50% in certain lines. Not
withstanding immense advances out
side, especially in Hardware and
Metal Goods, we are still selling ju
the basis of goods purchased the
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
quirements of the Camp.
If you have an order to be filled,
let us figure on it; we can save you
money. We have proved it oj
others, we can prove it to you.

An interesting and important case
affecting many miners, • prospectors
and others who hold claims in this
section was decided by Judge Brown
the other day at Valdez. This deci
sion decides that that section of the
territorial mining law making com
pulsory recording of assessment work
each year is valid and binding. The
decision was given in a case that
arose following the jumping of a
claim whose prior owners failed to
record their assessment work. It
was shown that they dijl do their as
sessment work, but because they
failed to comply with the law, their
ground was forefelted to the man
who staked it. Quite a general idea
has been prevalent that the claim
owners could or could not file their
assessment work on record at their
own option. Judge Brown’s decision
practically settles the question and
makes this recording of assessment
work as obligatory in terms of the
territorial mining law.
Clothing cleaned, pressed, altered
and repaired at the Nome Tailoring
Co., Next door to Segerstroni and

Tonight the Democratic Club
meets in the City Hall, and there
may be a lively time. The ma
chinery of the party has been creak
ing of late for want of some job oil,
and they are going to overhaul the
works. That's political metaphor,
for your whiskers. It is, in plainer
language, reported that some of the
incumbents are to meet with criti
cism, political and and otherwise,
and there is to be something doing
if all the wise nods and hints and
intimations and ejaculations are to
be believed. It is also not imposs
ible that questions of endorsing this
or that candidate for a federal job
may come up for discussion. One
authority stated that Jim Daly was
desirous of being endorsed for an
important federal position and other
aspirants hope for the same thing.
On the other hand one of the stal
wart leaders asserted, declared and
otherwise stated that the club would
not endorse anyone. Literally the
question and answer were as fol
lows: “I hear the club is going to
endorse some candidates for office in
this division? It is going to do no
such a damn thing”. That at least
was plainly spoken, and is what re
porter’s jargon describes as an em
phatic denial. It is likely however
that there will be quite a large
gathering of the unterrified (and ex
pectant ones) in the city hall to
night.
Patronize the Nome Tailoring Co.
Why? Because they do the best
work, and- are the only pioneer
tailors in Nome.
