The ^ S. Mount McKinley of
the Alaska Line, Last vessel en
Toute to Nome from Seattle this
season, is expected to arrive at
Dutch Harbor lat today. It is un
derstood that the vessel has a
couple of stops to make in that
vicinity before proceeding here.
Agent Joe Harnish will receive
the first information when the
vessel leaves Dutch Harbor for
Nome and after that the time of
the steamer's arrival at Nome
can be easily estimated as two
days. There is a lot of “grape
vine" dope as to when the vessel
will arrive here, but nothing cer
tain can be taken for granted un
til the local agent receives a wire
from the Captain of the Mount
McKinley.
Partners E. K. Johanson. Wm.
McDonald and Henry Wurman,
Coffee Creek mining operators in
the lower Kougarok section flew
into town several days ago after
a long season’s work. The boys
have been on the creek since last
March, but judging by their looks
(added girth), their long isola
tion worked no undue hardship.
Possibly, Miss Ruth (Toddy) Jo
hanson, also returned to town,
I
and who presided over the culi
nary department of this camp,
is responsible for their skookum
appearance.
Mr. and Mrs. John Kanari are
again occupying their Nome resi
dence on 2nd Ave. having com
pleted their summers mining op
erations in the upper Kougarok,
which John reports to have been
satisfactory.
Oscar Margraff and partner
are in from their Big Hurrah
property in the Solomon River
section to spend the winter in
Nome.
Oscar reports most of the sum
mer spent in putting in several
miles of ditch and in other dead
work preparing for the next
mining season.
A. V. Cordovado and Si Wallin
departed via plane yesterday for
Deering where with two others
they will conduct a drift mining
venture this winter, on the In
tnachuk River about 20 miles
from Deering.
Fred Mebes, pioneer Nome
and Council miner and dredge
operator came up from Council
yesterday. Fred says he came in
to take in the annual N. W. Al
1 aska Fair, and to visit around for
a few days after which he will
head back for the Council sec
tion where his company will do
considerable drilling on Fox Riv
er. a tributary of Fish River.
Clinton Gray, Council-born
son of pioneer Dave Gray and
Mrs. Gray, recently returned
from Ungalik in the Bonanza dis
trict where he has been employ
ed during the summer on the
Frank Shaw dredge, has taken a
position with the Nome Nugget
as linotype operator. Clinton af
ter several years apprenticeship
with the Nugget, spent the last
two years in Oakland, Calif, at
the Central Trade School study
ing the printers art.
Clyde (Tex) Cockburn, long
time Nomeite arrived yesterday
from Taylor, where he was em
ployed since spring as engineer
on the Kougarok Consolidated
Placers Inc. dredge. Tex is going
out this winter to visit the folks,
his first trip out in ten years.

James A. Farley PM General
For some time past the local
Chamber of Commerce has been
burning the wires and otherwise
using its good offices to further
the extension of airmail service
to the outlying sections of our
own 2nd division.
The above wire from the Post
master General bespeaks his per
sonal interest in the projected
air mail program of this section
of our great Territory, and
should prove an added impetus
to the continuation of splendid
work that our local chamber has
. been doing toward extending the
air mail service that Nome has
been receiving for the past sev
eral years to the balance of our;
towns and communities, espec
ially to the North.
A special commemorative pro
gram will be held coincident
with the inauguration of this
latest air mail service, and will
be announced later by the Cham
ber of Commerce through The
