Thomas Oehman has bought the
old Lucci store building down be
yond the Standard Oil where it has
been standing tenantless since the
big storm ot 1913. Tom bought the
building for the lumber it contains
and he intends to repair his own
dwelling and also to erect with the
lumber a comfortable prospecting
ratlin on his property in the Rodney
vicinity.
According to its reported position
the I'matiila will arrive early on
Sunday morning with much freight,
a considerable number of passengers
and a mail of dimensions for Nome.
The l.atouche is still unloading at
St. Michaels. Local agents had no
idea when the steamer would be
finished althqugh they ventured to
express an opinion that it would be
some time today. The Latouche
will come to Nome to take mail out
side, the steamer going from here
direct to Seattle. It is not unlikely
that a shortage of experienced
stevedores may have something to
do delaying ihe steamer as forty
men have quit, the company has
been obliged to fall back upon the
natives who do not believe in white
men or corporations owned by any
person extracting more than a de
finite amount of surplus value out
of their hides at a given time. They
cannot lie rushed and neither pray
ers nor curses are going to excite
them to do any faster than the bit
that they have laid out for them
selves.

shipptd as chief engineer on this
schooner and he was one of the few
who perished up the Arctic regions

A local promoter is evolving a
scheme to form a co-operative com
pany which will if the authorities
over there permit them extensively
trade and mine in Siberia. The
plans are passed the preliminary
stage to such an extent that the in
dividual was free to explain what
they were. Each member of this
company is to be combined capital
ist and laborer: capitalist to the ex
tent of digging up the same sum as
each of the other members of the
firm and laborer in that lie will have
to perform the manual work involv
ed the same as every other member
of the company. They will acquire
a schooner and loading it with goods
of all kinds establish a post some
where on the Anadir. The various
members of the company will be
provided with handy portable boil
ers where needed in parties of three
seek good looking creeks and pros
pect them The proceeds will be
carefully divided in the form of di
vidends. The promoter thinks that
about five hundred odd dollars will
be enough capital to start in with,
but a maximum of a thousand will
he certainly set. All will have an
equal share. If any member kicks
or bucks the traces and wants to
get out of the company he will have
to accept time notes in settlement
of what is coming to him. if there
are at the time no available assets.
The promoter was quite enthusiastic,
although it is possible his experience
of Arctic region partnerships may
not be profound. He admitted he
did not hear of the Yukon partners
who chopped everything in half be
cause they were incompatiable with
one another, down to theYukon stove
and the row boat. That there is a
fine field for such a concern where
will be no dead heads and all will
be workers admits of little doubt.
But it might be suggested that to
find successful fields for exploitation
it may not be necessary to go to Si
beria, although distant fields are al
ways the more promising.
