OVERSTOCK <CD
To the Public:—
We have just finished stock tak
ing, and find that we are heavily
overstocked so are making enorm
ous reductions in Hardware—as
much as 60% in certain lines. Not
withstanding immense advances out
side, especially in Hardware and
Metal Goods, we are still selling ju
the basis of goods purchased tne
past two or three years.
We will sell for cash only at these
prices, and for a limited time, until
we bring our stock down to the re
quirements of the Camp.
If you have an order to be filled,
let us figure on it; we can save you
money. We have proved it oo
others, we can prove it to you.

ROOF GARDEN COMMITTEE
Frank C. Dean, the efficient and
energetic secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce i3 in receipt of advice
from the second assistant post
master general that contracts have
been let for a surplus mail to Fair
banks and that they w'ould also
call for bids for an additional excess
mail to Nome. That is going some
and is the result of consistent agi
tation in -which the Chamber of
Commerce and its secretary took ,
such a prominent part while other
bodies gave up the situation as in
curable.
Clothing cleaned, pressed, altered
and repaired at the Nome Tailoring
Co., Next door to Segerstrom and
Hagen's.
A letter received from Dime creek
announces that pay has been found
on Dime below Goose creek where it
never was located before and the
benches are all looking up well. The
new location of pay is not very rich
but it is wide and gives the camp
an indefinite lease of life. The min
ers are still up in the air about a re
corder and their need for such an
official is declared to be great. They
wonder why the policy of watchful
waiting should be pursue and our
correspondent asks if they are wait
ing until someone freezes to death
going to Council before an official is
appointed. Moreover the booze evil
is reaching scandalous dimensions in
the new camp and men who had
over a thousand are all broke. Com
plaint was made to the district at
torney and our correspondent says
that he saw the reply and will try
and get a copy. It asked for all
details with day and date and wit
nesses and what not. They are wond
ering why the expensive department
of justice dont probe a little itselt
without making volunteer gumshoe
men of the miners. The benches
are showing up well, beyond expec
tations. Still wage workers are
cautioned to keep away from the
camp as none are being hired as
yet.
