The Post Office Inspector is at
present here looking up the affairs
of the department in this section.
One thing that is needed here is
more publicity. For the past few
years the poundage of mail arriving
has not been given out for publica
tion for some reason. Anyhow the
winter allowance of mail and the
mail service granted Nome should
be capable of considerable improve
ment. If the official mail was car
ried over and above the amount of
mail allowed by contract, Nome
would have an approximate winter
sufficiency, considering everything.
But with official mails taking up
the bulk of the contract limit, the
people don’t get off anywhere.

Three deserters were taken off the
Victoria yesterday at the instance of
Lieutenant Perrine, TJ. S. A. by de
puty Marshal Holland. The men
left the service at St. Michaels to
enjoy the delights of a trip outside
and the fuller life which the cribbed
cabined and confined existence on
the island of St. Mike’s denied them.
However their trip was nipped in
the bud, and they were brought
back probably to face court martial
for their indulgence in a temporary
wanderlust.
Pete Gervais returned from a trip
of investigation iii Marshal and his
account while not depreciative is
also not at all likely to occasion any
wild stampede. Five claims are pay
ing. Tiie output of the camp to
date is not less than $250,000 and
one man paid as much as twenty
thousand dollars for one lease. Two
hundred and fifty men are working
and all active with five dollars a
dayr and board to their credit. The
eight hour day is an accomplished
fact th-re. Deputy Marshal Lee has
taken charge of the law enforcement
functions in the camp. So far it is
all summer work. There is however
a big tract of flat at the end of Wil
low which this winter is to be dril
led and if pay is found to warrant
it, as the miners hope, they will
prospect A1 Braten returned to St.
Mike’s after some more provisions
and has as much freight as he can
take along. There were some sup
plies short and these were being
asked for in St. Michals. It is as
irnnd a i imn for its size as in Al
aska at present.

A. Wittenberg, received a commu
nication from Captain Leo Witten
berg, the Sinbad of the family, who
is now en route to the Arctic to
make the deeds of dering-do chalk
ed to the credit of the Stefansson
outfit look like thirty cents on a
dark night before the lights are
turned on. They made Barrow in
fine r.hap without a word of trouble
among tie1 crew and all a happ> fa
mily as it were. Leo wrote when j
they were about to sail for Herschel. i
lie said that owing to the lateness
of the s- ison they did not hope to
make Victoria Land this summer,
but would winter instead at Her
schel island, renewing their journey
the following year. Leo said that
they would be out of gasoline and
would have to have some sent up
next year. They reported that Beck
land traded with the Anna Olga for
all her goods where he met them at
Wainwright, and the Anna Olga
started again back to the Arctic.
The letter was written in good spi
rits and Wittenberg praises Captain
Crawford as a Bayard of the sea,
without fear and without reproach.

William Maloney, Territorial Min
ing Inspector arrived over from St.
Michaels on the steamer Victoria.
Mr. Maloney has made a complete
inspection of all the interior camps
including the Tolovana, the Kusko
kwim. Ruby and Marshal as well as
Fairbanks and Iditarod and will
now spend some time in the Second
Division completing his inspection
of the various mining activities. His
opinion of Marshal is that it will be
good little camp, pay is found on
very rich. So far the country will
stand a lot of development before
being in the same class as Nome and
Fairbanks. There are very many
working there, and things are gen
erally good with an eight hour day
and a wage rate of live and board.
The Tch-toi camp he did not visit.
But two claims are really pro
ducers. and there has to be even
still mere work done there and
more found to place the
Tolstoi section in class A of
placer camps. The dry weather
samewhat hampered operations in
the interior and it was indeed a
very dry season. How long Inspe
tor Maloney wil remain here de
pends upon the time his work will
take in this district. As with every
other inspecting or travelling offi
cial, a good deal depends upon the
connection by land or water one is
able to make travelling through Al
aska for the time engaged in the
trips.
