It is announced that William
Worcester has been appointed U. S.
Commissioner of the Kougarok min
ing precinct with headquarters at
Shelton, vice Judge Thomas the pre
sent incumbent. Judge Thomas al
though appointed by Judge Murane
has always been a democrat.
Laird and Wells are said to have
bought the Zehner building, show
cases wall display racks and two
safes and all for $800. If Assessor
Grimm were to make his annual

the city will be broke flatter than
a dollar.
j he Wild Goose Heating Plant Is
now approaching completion and in a
short time the company which just
received its franchise through
Fred Ayer will soon begin laying the
mains along Front Street with the
object of supplying the household
ers who have determined to make
use of the supply.
One man whose confidence in the
future of Nome is manifested In a
recent real estate deal is A. Polet
who has bought the Discovery Sa
loon building and is having it moved
back from 2nd St. and east from If.
while it is being turned into one of
the most palatial residence mansions
around Nome, for himself and his
family. Clias Ross has the contract
moving the building and the work
of repairs which have to he effect
ed on account of the damage done
by the fire is quite extensive.
Joseph Chilberg is now showing
in his store specimens of jade from
the Kobuk mine of Walter Kolin
the jade king. It is the green
variety much prized by the Chinese
as a stone possessed of almost as
many virtues as Alladin’s lamp,
and with curative properties has a
rattle snake’s skin backed off the
map. In some specimens of the
jade, nodules of some kind of ore
with a metallic luster can be seen
and some erudite prospector thinks
that possibly this may be radium.
As radium is worth about three
hundred thousand times as much as
gold it is therefore possible Mr.
Chilberg is harboring the wealth of
Midas within his curio store.

The La France engine is now
subjecting the James well to a
strain well calculated to test its ca
• pacity to supply the mains in case
of Are. The result of this experi
ment was entirely sucessful. The
mains were emptied and the La
France engine filled them to the
highest point at the Discovery in
twelve minutes. After the mains
were filled and the water turned on
' in the nozzle hose, the stream was
thrown to a distance in height of
about thirty feet and almost to
Snake river from the end of Second
St. Notwithstanding that Bond who
had charge of the engine ran short
of coal a fine pressure was main
tained and one can easily see that
with additional engine, the city can
maintain a fine water supply pro
viding of course winter conditions
do not Interfere with yesterday’s
' results.

The Nome roadstead is now clear
of all ocean going steamers and
only the various units of Nome's
trading fleet are riding at anchor.
Those to be seen from shore are the
Teddy Bear, getting ready to load
up for the Arctic cruise of Captain
Bernard, the Challenge also getting
ready for a trip to Herschel Is
land under Captain Crawford, the
Gladiator waiting to discharge its
cargo and re-load for another trad
ing cruise in the Arctic with «'). An
derson, and the Sea Wolf, soon to
sail on a trading trip under sealed
orders from Commodore Wittenberg
Admiral of the fleet. The Belinda is
also in the roadstead making ready
to take on supplies for Willow
creek in the Marshal district.
The schooner Belinda with cap
tain Heck la and Andy Otterson re
turned from Marshal city after land
ing much freight and several pas
sengers in that camp. They report
that there are about five paying
claims. Most of those who went up
with them could have gone to work
were there more water; as it is
several did find employment, but a
water shortage is decreasing opera
tions. Otterson has a poke of gold
that was from Willow creek digg
ings and never finer metal excited
the cupidity of the avaricious than
the Marshal brand of the root of
all evil. He stated that Delbar of
Nome has had great good fortune
merchandising in that region, and
sold out an immense supply of
of goods. In a letter brought down
to Charles Ross from Waskey, he
spoke optimistically of the camp’s
future and said that there had been
quite a large bunch of money taken
out. He had found pay on the
benches ami intended to do most
of his mining In the winter time.
Otterson brought large orders for
hardware and mining supplies to
the Darling and Dean Co. and also
orders for groceries etc. to other
merchants of Nome. Just as soon
as he can get this freight on board
the Belinda he intends to set sail
again for Marshal. The Russians
who were unable to get work say
that there is a number of idle men
in the camp and the alleged short
age is all humbug. They point out
that if there was any demand they
would not return. One operator, they
say, is hiring eskimos only.
The republican district convention
which convened on Thursday even
ing nominated Cap Sundback for
Senator, Nate Coopibs, T. M. Heed,
Leo Kent and Andy Anderson for
representatives and W. J. Howe for
Territorial Road Commissioner. The
convention endorsed the nomination
of Geo. D. Schofield for Attorney
General and the candidate made
quite a political address to the G.
O. P’s. Charles Jones who is also
a candidate for representative de
clined to bind himself to vote the
ticket straight and that probably
cost him his being placed on the
ticket. Ira D. Orton moved that
the convention endorse Delegate
Wickersham as the candidate for
Delegate to Congress on the repub
lican ticket. The chair over-ruled
the motion because of the fact that
the nomination was in the hands of
a nominating committee which
meets in Cordova on August 17.
The mover of the motion appealed
from the decision of the Chair but
lost out, a large majority sustain
ing the chair’s ruling, so Wick was
snuffed out of the proceedings. It is
reported that the republican! com
mittee will not make any choice, but
that in reality the democratic nomi
nee will receive the support of the
republicans throughout the terri
tory. Wickershr.mites of promi
n'-nc.e comment unon the conven
tion’s refusal to endorse their man
by declaring that the failure was a
great boost to the Hon. Jim and
to receive the endoisement would
have been a body blow. But they
possibly protest too much, me
thlnks.
