The Victoria according to the cal
culations of those who should know,
ought at the present time to be
plowing the waters of Bering Sea.
The steamer has a full cargo on
board, a considerable portion of
which is coal. It is stated that the
Victoria will have a very large pas
senger list on the return trip.
Natives say that they never have
put up so many salmon as this year
and dried hump back is likely to be
cheap enough this winter. When
one considers the enormous run of
salmon in this section and the ab
solute absence of effort to conserve
this great food supply for outside
as well as Alaska consumption, one
cannot help but feel that the govern
ment overlooked a bet in food con
servation. The humpback salts bet
ter than any other form of salmon
belly according to the experts at this
kind of work.
In an advertisement elsewhere it
is made evident by A Polet that he
at least has no intention of leaving
the country just yet and intends to
stay with it for a bigger and better
Nome. His optimism is a fine
thing if not very contagious. It is
fair to say that in the reports as to
certain further consolidations in
view, the firm of Polet did not
figure, nor have any grocery firms
been connected up with such absorp
tions. As a matter of fact these
reports which are not entirely base
less refer to an entirely different
line of business and. may well be
accomplished facts before the close
of navigation.
A difference of opinion existed
within the minds of the city’s aider
men as to the meeting of the I
council, and although there were
no reporters present they gathered
last evening to take steps to legislate
for the benefit or otherwise of this
great and growng cty. • But the
clerk was absent and. so the Chief
of Police was commandeered to
bring the clerk down to the office
for the purpose of recording the
mighty deliberations.
When Clerk Grimm arrived a dis
cussion arose as to when and how
the meetings of the city council. It
was pointed out that the council
had. adopted the old rule which de
terminated. that the council meet on
the first and third Monday in each
month, and that as there were five
Mondays in this month of July, the
meeting was not in accordance with
Hoyle.
It was held by some of the mem-1.
ory sharks that this had been mod.i-1
fied but that the council’s clerk |
has suffered*a lapse in his efficient]
forgetting to record the modification,]
but it was finally rec..Ued that
while such modification had been
discussed, pro and con—long on the
con—no action had been taken. So
without more ado and as it was
noted regretfully that the Worker’s
representative was not present t take
notes for the edification of Nome’s
citizens, and to show how efficiently
ably and well are its affairs attend
ed. to. the Council held no meeting.
The Worker man is to be on hand
when the Council next meets or will
bust something.
