MRS MONOHAM
AWFUL TRIP OF VICTORIA
A wire received here from an out
going passenger on the steamer Vic
toria gives only a condensed state
ment of the awful conditons which
existed on that boat on her last trip
to Seattle leaving the details to be
supplied by one’s imagination. 24 of
her passengers have so far fallen
victims to the epidemic.
A mass meeting held by Alaskans
after the Victoria’s arrival appointed
the following Sick and Relief Com
mittee Win Eddy, Lloyd Botts, Mil
ton Luther, Harold Jensen and Harry
Conrad. Mrs Lars Gunderson of
Dime creek is doing noble work
nursing the Nome Boys day and night
The Epidemic is abating but many are
still very sick. Toby Reed, Ewing,
Hall Ohrem and Griffith buried yes
terday.
There are quite a few seriously ill
at both hospitals but the severity of
the epidemic seems to be relaxing.
It is absolutely imperative for every
one to take all possible precaution
until all danger has passed and the
Health Authorities give the town a
clean bill of HEALTH.
Most all of the Boys who were out
prospecting returned to town to assist
in the nursing and other necessary
work being carried on to top the rav
ages of the Epidemic.
Dave Bauman. Albert Ramsey,
Tom Rosskopf and Pete Butrlch were
taken to the Holy Cross hospital suf
fering from an attack of influenza.
At last report they were doing nicely.'
Nick Scorlich who was suffering
from a broken leg complicated by an
attack of influenza died in the May
nard Hospital.
Bourdon, Cy Carman and our gen
ial Fire Chief Haughey are conva
lescing nicely.
A good many citizens of Nome both
men and women are doing heroic
work tending to the unfortunate suf
ferors of the Epidemic irrespective
of creed, color or nationality without
blowing of trumpets or expectation
of a reward.
We only wish there were more of
them.
Dave Denny who brought buncan
McLain, an influenza victim from
Cape Wooley left town accompanied
by Hans Thorsen with a wagonload
of Grub, Medicines, etc to be distri
buted to the sick natives along the
coast as far as Cape Wooley. He re
ports 'that almost all have been
stricken down by the influenza and
quite a few had died when he brot
down Duncan McLain.
A late dispatch received here an
nounces the death of Chas W Reed
at Seattle. Mr Reel who was well
known here had been running a ma
chine shop in Nome for years and was
one of the town’s pioneers.
George Prosser the well known
harness maker passed away last night
at the Holy Cros hospital*

ANNOUNCEMENT
Attorney Fred Harrison from
Marhxall has moved his offices to
Nome may be found in Rooms 9 and
10 Wild Goose Building.
Following are the names of the vic
tims of Nome’s white population who
have succumbed to the Epidemic of
Influenza now raging here.
Walter Shields. Martin Anderson,
Capt Erickson, Mrs Harry Clark,
Geneva Brown, Ida Stenmark, John
Milne, Fred Sager, Gus Nystrom,
Finn Rosvold, Sam (Sport) Boich,

Davis was removed to the Fort Hos
pital this morning seriously ill.
FOOD CONTROL WILL CONTINUE
Nome, Alaska Nov. 15. 1918.
Believing that the termination of
the war could not possibly relieve the
food situation immediately, and
probably dot for sometime, this office
took the pains to wire District Ad
ministrator Carl Lomen who is now
in Seattle, to wire the best obtain
able opinion on the subject. In an
swer he says:
“Food control will continue at
least eighteen months.’’
Hence we shall have to continue
our efforts along the same line as
heretofore. It may even happen that
we shall have to “Take the worst of
it” for a short time. For instance,
although people "In the States” may
return to white bread, without sub
stitutes, we can’t do that immediately
Our dealers were not permitted to
lay in their Winter’s stock of flour
without buying substitutes, at the
same time. Now it is only right and
fair that we use those substitutes.
Salt Water Fishermen, and all who
sell or distribute salt water fish, will
the required to take out Licenses, as
heretofore. The penalties for operat
ing without License are very severe
and as there is no fee charged for the
License, all who contemplate operat
ing during the coming year, are urged
to make application at an early date.
CHAS. W. THORNTON
.District Food Administrator.
Reports coming in from Cape Nome
