WHY NOT BOOST?
I nere is such a thing as over boost- (
mg and there is smh a tiling as not c
being aide to recognize those tilings
which a city, town or community lias
which entitles it to l.iiitjst. The Nugget,
upon its own initiative, without the
expectation of being paid for its ad
vertising iwis made an attempt to
arouse tlie public to the fact that there
is an opportunity to induce many peo
ple to visit us the coming summer. We
have attempted to draw the attention
to tlie ret that tlie Pacific Coast is
going to attract many thousands of
people the coming summer among
whom are the many tourists who, cut
off from their annual trip to Europe,
will seek other fields and that Alaska
v.-ill, for many reasons, tie a. favorite
resort for hundreds of these people.
Such being the ease the N'ugget has
attempted to draw the attention of tlie
people of Nome to this opportunity to
attract travel to this portion of Alaska.
In so far as such travel will he of
benefit to this section of Alaska we.
like others who are In business here,
will be benefltted as all must whose In
terests arc identical with the develop
ment of the country Alaska is in the
public eyp, it has wonderful possibili
ties and the country has that which is
attractive to the home seeker, the
miner and investor and to the tourists
who are seeking. In many eases, to
familiarize themselves with the un
usual conditions under which a people
are living and producing vast amounts
of wealth in the extreme Northland.
Nome has impressed itself upon the
minds of people in every portion of ttie
world There Is scarcely a well Inform
ed person who has not heard of Nome
and knows something of its history in
the eurl\ nineties and the vast amount
of gold which it has produced
There is an interest manifested in
and a longing to visit the place by
thousands who are anxious to visit a
place which to them has many points
of interest.
Many may be Induced to visit us the
coming summer because, when once
started on a trip of p’easure it I® not
a hard matter to hove that trip ex- |
[tended, if conditions are made favor
able for that trip to he made in comfort
with the promise of furnishing them
with an opportunity to interest them
selves in an infinite variety of scenes,
conditions which to them are unusual
and beyond the range of former ex
periences.
Tourists are desirable visitors in all
portions of the world and it would he
short-sighted pessimists alone who
would not welcome them and strive to
have the current of such travel directed
to us
if the future of Seward Peninsula Is
one of promise, and we believe it is,
then it is highly Important that we
should attract people to us, for like
new countries we are in need of help
If Seward Peninsula is on the de
cline. if its mineral resources In gold
tin. iron, copper, coal and other re
sources give no promise for the future
then there is reason in an apathy upon
the part of the people of Nome and a
reason why they should not In any
way boost the country or attempt to
attract people to our shores But we
venture the prediction that within a
\ eiy few' years that. In spite of our
ipathy and lack of faith, Seward Pen
insula will he the great mineral pro
ducer of the Pacific Coast and time will
prove that in the development of the 1
great Pacific Coast that Seward Penin
sula will be in important factor.
The Nugget has faith in Seward
Peninsula and believes that publicity
•vill do us good and believes that public
ipirited people are in harmony with us

lireetion.

‘•Of the 57.000 varieties of things
about women's ways that it is impos
sible for a man to understand,*' said
a quiet observer. *' I will mention only
one. Why is it that women button on
their coats the other way from the way
in which a man buttons on his coat'.'
A man’s coat is so made that the but
tons come on the left side or half of
the garment, when it is buttoned In
a woman's eoat. the buttons come on
the right side When a woman puts on
a man's overcoat the first thing she
says is always this: ‘Why. it buttons
the wrong way!’ Of course, the man I
thinks that the woman's wav is wrong,
and the only thing that Is certain about 1
it is that the man's coat buttons on one I
side and the woman’s on the other.”

NEUTRALITY
WANTED
—
Wanted Neutrality Highest cash
prices paid by evildoers everywhere for
new and second hand neutrality. The j
progress of evil is greatly obstructed
tty the egregious habit which human j
beings have of taking sides ami making
“thieul judgments. The result of these
judgments Is the making of laws and
ihe introduction of other inhlbltive
processes. The only way this can be
stopped is by the establishment of
neutrality on a large scale. As there
is a great difference in quality, please
submit samples before making shlo
ments. The object is to make the av
erage man look at the affairs of life
(vlth the same lack of discrimination as
i deaf, dumb and blind idiot would look
it tlie burning of a helpless city and
:lie mutilation of non-combatants.
