"this structure was built in the
^.arly days but was abandoned
ior court purposes when the pre
i vent court house was completed
in 1908. In October 1913, the,
1 the building was turned over to
|the Secretary of the Interior!
,and has been used for a native
I school. The Indian Bureau is1,
putting up a new structure and
■ he old court house has been
vacated and abandoned. The
Delegate has sought to have the|
property turned over to the City
of Nome. Both the Interior i
i
and Department of Justice are
perfectly willing that this should
be done, but the hitch is wheth
er it can be delivered without |
an act of Congress. Assistant
Attorney General Sisson inclines
to the opinion that it would be
advisable for Nome to build the
street thru this tract without
first securing title to the land
in a legal way, lest complica
tions might result later.
C. of C. Endorses Highway
At the annual meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, held last week at
Atlantic City, what was regard
ed as a strong endorsement of
the British Cofumbia-Yukon
Alaska Highway was reported by
the Resolutions Committee and
unanimously adopted by the
meeting. Those members pre
sent who were especially inter
ested in securing the endorse
ment of the project were; Ivan
Gardner, of the Los Angeles
Chamber of Commerce; Herbert
II. Rice, of the National Auto-J
mobile Association: Jack Un
derwood, of the Seattle Chamber
of Commerce; Eric K. Johnson,
of Spokane; Sylvester Weaver,
of Los Angeles; Ernest Walker
Sawyer, of the interior Depart
ment; Judge Wickersham, De
legate to Congress from Alas
ka and others. The resolution
adopted is as follows:
“Substantial progress is re
corded in the development of
an international highway south
from the United States, which
has been endorsed in principle
by the National Chamber. More
recently definite steps have been
taken looking to the extension of
the highway northward to Alas
ka, and commissions of the
United States :and’ Canada are
now making a preliminary study
of the proposal. The Chamber
urges early copletion of the
necessary engineering and eco
nomic studies and favorable
consideration of the results
thereof.”

Will Join the “Glacier Priest”
Robert Douglas, adventurous
Georgetown University junior,
who spent his sixteenth birth
day as a Boy Scout hunting lions
in the heart of Africa, left
Washington today for Alaska.
He is one of the three young
student explorers who are to
join Father Bernard Hubbard,
the “Glacier Priest,” in his lat
est Alaskan exploit to Chignic.
From thence they will trek
some 50 miles into the interior,
to the famous “Valley of 10,000
Smokes.” They will remain
there all summer, studying the
geology of the crater and its
neighboring Mount Vcniaminoff,
exploring and hunting Kodiak
bears with a camera.

On the 8th of May, Lonnie
Newman left for Point Sophia
p Hnflfflsn etaoin taoin hrd rd
to troll. His skiff was found
bottom-side up whilst his gas
boat was riding at anchor. A
.arge group of friends went out
to search for him but were un
successful. Lonnie was a faith
ful member of the Hoonah
Camp, A..N. B. and he fill be
sorely missed.
Judge Harding and Assistant
District Attorney Folta visited
here while on a recent bear
hunt but they did not stay long.j
Perhaps Frank Price was in a
rush to get back home so he
hurried the hunters out of town.
A new side walk has been
completed by the town with the
help of Standard Oil Company,
through Mr. O. G. Hillman. The
new walk is surely appreciated.

Charley Borch and family left
for Ketchikan where he will
have charge of the mild-cure
operations for Melchoir, Arm

Matt Jussila, fisherman and
Cap. Lem Church, tax collector,
.'angled on the tax question
The long arm of the law reached
out and assisted the Captain by
assessing a fine of $10 and $9.30
costs plus the $5 tax on Matt.
No use fighting the tax collect
or for when he too gets hard
boiled it costs a lot more than
the $5 tax.
The Bank of Alaska has pub
lished notice of sale of the Vir
ginia Lake mineral properties:
wildcatted for several years bj
Jerry Galvin. Perhaps now, the
Bank will open up the way sc
that the real mineral properties
back of the Galvin claims car
be developed and sold. This
proposition should put three
hundred men on the job.
Mrs. Louis Schott of San Fran
cisco will visit here very short
ly. Mrs. Schott first came tc
Alaska in the late ’80’s as the
bride of Louis Schott then fore
man. Mr. Schott later became
manager of the concern and
died in that capacity several
years ago. Many changes have
taken place since ’87 and not so
many old timers left even among
ihe natives.
