the country at all, at all; and just as

will return to “God’s country.” Con

NOME NUGGET
BEING ISSUED
NOME, Jan. 17 (Special to the Daily
I Times).—Several Alaska newspapers
have printed misleading statements re
garding the Nome Nugget suspending
publication for the winter, which are
untrue and misleading. The Nugget
never has ceased publication, nor has
it any intention of suspending.
Instead of publishiing a tri-weekly
as formerly, the Nugget is now pub
lishiing a daily telegraphic bulletin
and an eight-page weekly.
The publisher, George Maynard,
claims that this is much less expen
sive and more satisfactory to all con
cerned.
