A SHORT RESPITE
William Maloney, Territorial
j Mining Inspector, came to Nome to
J (lie—officially speaking. Having
I backed Strong against the machine,
the machine in the person of Riggs
insisted upon the hook. Yesterday
the popular and competent official
received information that Governor
Riggs would accpt his resignation
to go into effect on July 1. This
unlooked for respite it i3 presumed
I is granted that the official may be
! spiritually prepared for his decapi
i tation.
i
—
j ALSO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
j George B. Grigsby, formerly Dis- [
• trict Attorney of the Second Divi
i sion, late Mayor of Nome, etc etc, J
j and present time Attorney Generrl
i for the Territory of Alaska. Offi
j cial business has brought Mr. Grigs
! by h're, also the fine duty of be
i
| ing a light and guide and lantern
1 to tho feet of the local unterrified
| mayhap had a little to do with it.
Tho work of separating the sheep
j and. the goats, the trees from tie
: wheat, is now proceeding.
LIKES THE ICE
j There was one man on board the
i Victoria who was not troubled by
j tho lingering hours among the Bor
ing ice floes. That man is Martin
I Anderson, the well known Arctic
I trader, explorer, and personal friend
of Stefannson. Martin leaves for
Safety in a day or two to got his
craft the Anna Olga ready for a trip
to tho Arctic. He will set sail jnst
as soon as ice conditions are favor
able for a passage norht.
VALUABLE INSTRUCTION
Two young native gentlemen who
have boon at a reform school as
the, enforced guests of Uncle Sam
near Boise, Idaho returned, on the
Victoria after receiving considerable
instruction in agricultural arts. .The
oldest of those hoys boasts of being
able <o drive gang plows with ten j
or twelve horses, to milk cows and |
to guide a header in the harvest j
field. Both have a choice selection ;
of slang and otic admitt d that he i
received best marks as trusty for j
snitching on his comrades who plan- j
ned escape. This instruction doubt-,
less will have a deeply civilizing ef
fect upon the impressionable minds
of the aborgincs.
WILL INVESTIGATE
Mersss Dawson and Chandler will ,
proceed to the Nimachuk where
they will make an expert survey of
the property cf the Fairhaven Co. ,
George M’Leod is out of the con- ;
cern and a prospective buyer is i
sending in Mr. Dawson who has ■
charge of the expedition. George j
F. ICilroy is to join tho party when -
leaving for the North.

A huge batch of mail arrived i
on a stea.mor last niglit. This was |
the first mail shipped from Seattle i
since tho opening of navigation and (

AVAR SAVING DRIVE
The Commit.oo in charge of the
War Saving Drive met with great
success yesterday socvr’r.g pledges
for consid Table eve- $12,000 worth
of War Savings Stamps. About one
half cf the pledges will be taken
up by tomorrow which has been
proclaimed Wrar Savings Day by the
President wh< n the. Drive closes.
Many pledged to take stamps in
end of mining see son or in monthly
Installments.
A’ery few but understand the
good features of Savings Stamps as
i readily redeemable investment
5ays the Committeemen. “Stamps
ire really ‘Baby Bonds’ bearing 4'T
ntcrest compounded quarterly and
jan be redeemed at Post Office in
lot over ten days from request ■,
’or redemption. Those not in a ’
ior.ition to purchase now can pledge ’
hemselvcs to purchase during cur- i
•cut year.” *
NOT THIS YEAR
Although Engineer Carpenter who
conducted the later surveys is a
passenger on the Victoria, is not
for the purpose of inaugurating
work on the Snake river harbor but
for the purpose of inspecting the
work on the Apoon mouth of the
Yukon river where the government
dredge is in operation. For the
Snake river harbor construction it
was impossible to secure tonnage,
but in any event the work is likely
to be delayed pending considera
tion of a plan submitted by the
management of tho Alaska Mines
Corporation and a bill for which
passes through Congress. It is pro
posed by this company to dredge a
channel thru Snake river bar and
dredging up the shores of Bering
Sea to throw back a bulkwark of
tailings which would, it is held, by
the promoters be sufficient, protec
tion against a storm. Government
engineer officials in Seattle were not
impressed when the plans for this
were laid before them but at Wash
ington a better view was held, and
the company is hopeful tHat. they
may be able to secure the passage
nf tho bill and they claim they will
provide Nome with a harbor at
no cost to the government. What
is regarded by some ns in the na
ture of a joker is a return request
for a ten year monopoly of b. aeli
dredging in tlic vicinity.
