The Nome Chamber of Commerce
which received a dispatch from
Key Pittman relative the Harbor in
timating that it was too early to re
port upon the question as yet. at the
meeting on Tuesday evening decided
to leave no stone unturned to gel
this needed appropriation through.
It cannot be denied that there is
some feeling prevailing that the
election of Sulzer may interfere with
the passage of this appropriation.
On the other hand it is likely to as
sist in the passage of the road ap
propriation which will be badly
needed this year, above other years.

The Eagles hope to recoup them
selves with the big show on Satur
day night for the expenses con
tingent upon the maintenance of the
big hall during the winter. So few
entertainments have been pulled off
during the season past that the
Hall has been quite an expense. As
all take an interest in the up-keep
of this magnificent hall, it is likely
that, one of the largest crowds ever
gathered there will greet the per
formance on Saturday night.

At the last regular meeting of the
Miners Union a committee consist
ing of Andrew Beck, John A. YVilson
William Austin, J. Nelson and Pat
M’Ginty was appointed to co-operate
with a like committee of the W. C.
T. U. to investigate the advisability
of preventing saloon licenses being
granted this spring. It was decided
to interview Judge Tucker on the
mill vrstprdav at one o'clock
they saw the Judge in the District
Court room, the presidents of the or
ganizations stating the purpose of
the interview. Judge Tucker was
asked what procedure if any was
necessary to prevent his issuing new
liquor licenses to saloons when the
present ones expired. Several ques
tions were asked of Judge Tucker
who courteously and frankly an
swered them. He suggested to the
committee that they circulate their
petitions and present them to him
not later than April 20. He asked
that it be specifically stated in the
petition when they would desire all
licenses to expire. In passing Judge
Tucker said that he had power to
grant licenses one day, a week or
for any lengtn oi lime up 10 jan. i.
1918. He would carefully give the
both petitions consideration. As to
what action he would take in the
event of either having a majority of
bona fide signatures, he said he
would issue a license if the saloon
men had the largest number, and if
the drys had the majority he would
refrain from doing so. The peti
tions would be carefully scanned
and the same signatures on both pe
titions would bo properly appraised,
and if in his opinion he deemed it
necessary to issue a call for a spe
cial election he would do so. The
committee notified the Judge that
they would give him a definite an
swer as to their intentions at ten
o’clock on Monday morning next.
The intention is understood to be
to eliminate the saloons about Sep
tember 1 so that the men coming
in from the creeks on the freeze up
could not be fleeced of their hard
earned coin.
