NOME AFTER
MORE TRADE
WITH SIBERIA
Thorulf Lehmann, a Nome pioneer
business man, and president of the
commercial body of his own home
town, was last night the guest of the
executive committee of the Cordova
Chamber of Commerce at an informal
conference in which matters of mu

fourteen days with a string of sixteen
Siberian dogs owned by L. Seppala.
Mr. Lehmann says that between 500
and 600 white people are wintering at
Nome, and business there is fairly

this meat in the States. The car
cases are sold for 22 cents per pound
f. o. b. steamer at Nome, and the hides

in the northern part of Alaska, and it
is estimated that there are at present
about 250,000 head of reindeer in the
territory.
Mr. Lehmann is anxious to see bet
ter communication established be
tween Nome and Siberia. The latter
country is now making large ship
ments of furs to Nome during the
summer months, and this trading for
a single season runs as high as $250,
000. He believes that Nome will be
TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS
Beginning on March 1, the
subscription price of the Cordova
Daily Times will be $1.25 per

lutely essential on account of the
high cost of material and labor.
The Times is practically the last
of the daily newspapers in
Alaska to increase its rates, but
is now forced to take this action.
