The southerly wind drove up the
water into Snake river and the Sand
spitters who are no more amphibious
than the rest of the Nomeites. are
obliged to go around by the Bridge.
As there is no store running on the
Spit, they have to come up town for
everything they want and they are
very angry by reason of the fact
that to reach town they have to
come all the way around by that
other suburb of beauty: Belmont
Point. “They are all short of grub
over there", ‘old one irate resident,
of the Spit to a Worker representa
tive, “and it's working a real hard
ship on us to have to come around
through the heavy drifts to get to
town. Moreover we are all paying
our taxes. The city promised that
it would give us lumber with which
to build a bridge if we did so, but
the city is long on promises and
short on fulfilment”. An investiga
!
tion shows that the residents of the
Spit have been in fact paying up
taxes, back taxes at that, in many
instances, but whether this filthy
lucre was lured from them by the
city under the pretense of getting
a bridge built later, or because the
Snake River Harbor project’s appar
ently being favorably reported, may
not be ventured.
