GENERAL ELECTION
TOM OR A OW—VOTE
The General Election in Name
and thruout Alaska will take
place tomorrow. Several years
ago it was the policy of editors
of newspapers to tell the people
how to vote. But for the past
several years an enlightened
public resents the old way of
politics, and therefore the Nug
get is only going to call your at
tention to the fact that it is the
duty of every American citizen to
go to the polls and cast his or her
vote, for the candidate or candi
dates they believe will be the
proper persons to represent you:
in the next Territorial Legisla
ture.
The Nugget printed many col- j
umns of literature last spring on
the one house legislature and the
two house legislature. We think
we have done are part in bring
ing before the public this impor
tant matter without personal
favoritism. The people of Nome
and outlying sections are classed
as a highly educated citizenry,1
and we de not propose to dictate
to the electorate wrhat they
should or should not do.
We urge that all citizens, re
gardless of their political faiths,1
turn out and vote according to
your ideas of men and govern- j
ment. The man wrho has the |
right to voto and do^s not uso
his privilege, should not kick and

make a big fuss after the election
is over, because the election did
not goe the way he expected.
Go to the polls tomorrow and
cast your vote as you see fit and
that is your American right and
privilege, but do it.
Two Kinds of Claims
.. It is very important to distin
guish between a lode and a pla
cer deposit... If a deposit is lode,
it should be staked as a lode
claim: If it is placer, it should be
staked as a placer claim... If both
a lode and a placer deposit are
found in the same area, it should
be located as both a placer and
a lode claim.
