The President by executive order
has declared a native reservation
for the Bureau of Education and to
the request of the Secretary of the
Interior on Norton Sound. The
metes and bounds of .the reserva
tion are thus described: “Beginning
at a point where latitude 65 inter
sects longitude 161.20 West of
Greenwich, thence due west from
161.40 west of Greenwich in a
straight line southwesterly to longi
tude 162.40 west of Greenwich
thence south of the place of b 'Tin
ning, thence to place of beginning*'.
The reservation also includes the is
lands adjaci nt to within three miles
of the com line. It takes in Walla
i Walla, Moses and Isaac's and the
I offshore limit is just south of Darby
j Mountains The Bureau of E.Mo.x
! tion will plot extensive developments
| in the new reservation similar to
that at Noorvik.
By all accounts the democratic
1 organization is up in arms against
Governor Strong and his refusal to
abide by the decision of the At
torney-General in determining the
election for Delegate. Private ad
vices which are carefully concealed
from prying press reporters show
that this irritation is exceedingly
strong and that it was the Wicker
shamites who really engineered the
memorial to Congress asking the
president to re-appoint Strong as j
governor. It is well known in po
litical circles that Strong and Sul
] zer never did hit it and now that
! this memorial was supported by the
democratic members of both houses
before they fully realized the full
significance of the memorial which
Wickites gave cleverly the rush act,
using two almost democrats to
frame the tiling through. Some of
this distant storm is reflected in the
local teacups.
I
The Land Office is advised that a
patent has been issued to the Lis
burne-Corwiu Coal Co. for the
Gertrude West claim and the Virgil
Moore claim totalling 260.436 acres
and situated at Cape Lisburne. The
history of this parcel' of coal land
is intimately connected with the
story of Nome, and already a quan
tity of bla*k diamonds from these
claims have been brought and sold
to Nome At one time the schooner j
Seven Sisters, which had another i
name among sailors, was operated j
in connection with the Lisburne coal
lands. It is not impossible that j
early development work will be !
undertaken in the region which j
lies so close to Nome’s door and that
the quality of the coal which is
semi-bituminous will improve with
the depth. Immense quantities are
easily available, outcropping on the
cliffs of the cape and in other days
whalers and other ships, including
old Corwin, used to coal up on the
spot.
