Prank Manton an old timer o£ this
district who has of late years been
mining in the upper country, is at
present in Seattle. Wjriting about
conditons in- the latter city he states
that since the conclusion of hostili
ties over seas the army of unemploy
ed is growing automatically.
Wages are steadily declining while
the cost of living remains at its pres
ent high level. Manton says that
the war has been a glorious harvest
for the Seattle spirit, but as the busi
ness men have to retrench now they
are putting up an awful roar.
The exponents' of the Seattle spirit
are a unit in demanding a lowering
of wages all around although there
are no signs yet of a reduction in the
price of necessities.
A X OX-INTOXICATIN' G DRINK
THAT SATISPYS—REVO
A short message received from one
of the Victoria passengers states that
the latter steamer was a regular hog
pen on her last trip to the outside
and that the passengers v ere treated
worse than hogs. Billy Anderson, who
■1 mi enrollte t-> Seattle from the In
fluenza, died according to our in
formant from lack of care of any
kind.
Wm Stipek who left here last sum
mer for the states went to work in a
shipyard in Tacoma Wash, after his
arrival, finding the painting business
very slack. He states that Herman
Webb and Carl Hendricks from Tel
ler wfljre working in shipyards in
Tacoma. Also met Fred Weiler, ex
ganymiede of the Board of Trade who
is working as a painter in the ship
yards and there were many other
Nomeites whose names he could not
recall employed in Tacoma at the
time he wrote. He states that the
laboring men were very dissatisfied
with existing conditions and that con
siderable agitation for a strike was
being carried on among them.
Wages were not near as high as
they had been led to believe while
the cost of living was steadily mouilt
ing higher.

ing it easy. Jack Winters was working

Tom Sharkey, the culinary artist
stated in a letter received here tha
‘she was some trip’. He describe
conditions on boart^ the Victoria 01
her last trip as horrible.*
He says that Seattle was rippei
wide open when the news that th
armistice had been signed was receiv
ed there.
It was go as you please for fort
eight hours the streets crowded b
tens of thousands of people and ;
seemed to him that almost anythin
short of actual murder was permiss
ble.
Tom intended to leave for Frisc
which will be his headquarters. H
sends his best regards to all of h
friends.
The following was received in last j
mail from the Governors office at t
Juneau and Is self explanatory. t

THERE IS NONE AS GOOD AS BE VO
A telephone message yesterday
from H. S. Chester of,Golovin to Road
Commissioner Wilson conveyed the
information that the shelter cabin
owned by the Territory at Wallja
Walla eighteen miles east of Golovin
had burned down completely. It was
also requested that Dr Neuman be
interviewed and asked to allow the
mail earners to stop at the Mission
Roadho^e. Dr Neuman readily
granted the request, providing the
carriers wear masks and use their
own cooking utensile and bedding.
The burned cabin was bought and
fixed up by the Road Commission and
was one of the most comfortable
places on the run. It. was constructed
of logs and fitted up with bunks,
stove, cooking utensile, table, shelves
and had a roomy dog barn attached
to it. This cabin and the one ?.t Moses
were the only places of shelter during
the quarantine. How the fire arigi
nated is a mystery, as no one seems to
have been stopping there when it
was destroyed, but presumably some
one left a big fire and did not put it
out when leaving. Travelers are ad
vised that at present there is no stop
ping place between Golovin and the
Mission.
