INTERESTING EE1TCR
FROM EREDIIIEILER
*
The following very interesting letter
from Fred Weller was received re
cently by Mr John Nester who has
kindly let the same be published:
Tacoma, Nov. 30. 1014.
Hello John: —
Well here 1 am in the great outside,
and am taking life just as easy as
possible. T spent the first week in
Seattle and looked over all the doughs
as were here and arriving on last boats
and after getting tired of the Seattle
spirit I settled down at home in Ta
coma and have been working pretty
hard around the house straightening
things up. and the coming week will
dig out a cellar and level up the yard
with the dirt and will have all this ac
complished in a few weeks, then 1 will
have nothing hut time to loaf.
Could of went to work at several bars
but have a somewhat nauseating feel
ing for the biz which has not worn off
and don't want to butt into it for awhile
and in fact want to take a good layoff
first and perhaps the feeling will wear
off. so I should worry.
I saw our mutual friend Felix Tlrown
and found him just the same old Felix
with a heart as big as ever as also the
same sociability.
Saw Morte Atkinson and he is doing
fine and will have his place paid for in
about four years more and then will be
a hundred thousand to the good, which
will be n dandy showing for him and
he deserves it.
Joe Radger has heen spending a few
weeks with Morte. Ry spring Morte
will have eight thousand chickens, hut
of course many of these are for the
market. At this time of the year he
is faking in $30 per day for eggs and
the retail market is now F>0 cents per
dozen.
Also saw Seiffert at Senttle ITis
ground at Hope is turning out n. K
Showed me a poke that looked good.
Child is coarse and fiat. His ditch will
he finished in the spring and then he
can hydraulic and as he has as fine an
outfit as ever came to Alaska he will
i no doubt make good. He is now at
St. Louis making a report to his hack
ers and will return North after the
! holidays. Mrs. Seifert and Rinks re
i rnnlned at Seward, and little Johnny Is
! with Oils, and Johnny says daddy is
going to send him hy parcel post to
grandma in New York.
I have not been to Seattle for a week
| now. so don’t know any of the late
dope. but when T get through tinker
ing around the house, will try and
gather somo material for you.
Have boon watching the railroad sit
I uation and as far as I can see it will
he Seward. It may he that only a road
will he built to the coal fields, hut in
speaking to some of the higher ups
they seem to lie positive that the ap
propriation will he made for the entire
amount and that the road will he con
structed as far as the money will go
anyway, hut some definite action will
be taken in February, I understand,
and then it will be time to make some
kind of move. I may take a run up to
Seward the latter part of January hut
am waiting for something tangible to
work on first.
I also want to make a trip to San
Francisco and see the Fair. They are
going ahead with it pretty strong and
understand that it will be a grand
thing, but have grave fears for its suc
cess, but hope that it will pan out all
for the best.
The remainder of Mr. Weller's letter
will be published tomorrow. He tells
in interesting details about the oil
strike at Tenino, about seeing moving
pictures of the present war and other
interesting news.

Nome, January 25, 1015.
To the editor of Nome Daily Nugget:
I Mease allow me space in your val
liable paper, in answer to an article ir
the Nome Industrial Worker of Jan
uary 23rd. signed by J. F. McAllister
snying that “W. J. Rowe turned hi:
learns out in the morning before day
light so that they would upset theii
loads.” The system anil policy of tin
firm of IV. J. Rowe is so well and fav
orably known in this community tha
it is not necessary for me to make an;
comment upon the same. Mr McAllls
ter might Just as well have added ti
his assertion “and have his teamster:
maimed or killed by the upsetting o
the load." This charge eertainlj
sounds like mere child's prattle or at
old man in his dotage.
This is the second time this wintei
that T have had (he misfortune of hav
ing my load upset and life endangered
land the consequence of which is tha
1 have been badly crippled, and pro
bably permanently so. My loads an
not the only ones that have been tip
tied over this winter since the so-cailei
---—
1 contractor started to clear the streets
j The day previous to my last accident,
•two of the Fort Fa vis teams were up
, set; about three weeks ago another
team belonging to W. .T. Rowe was up
sot; a water wagon shortly after was
also upset. All this happened between
tlie Electric Light Company on Front
Mrect and the Consumer's Milk Com
pany in the east end of town on the
same street In tlie city limits.
It seems by Mr. McAllister’s attitude
j that be is trying to make the puhlh
believe that this street was in good
; condition at all times during the win
ter, but this is absolutely not true, as
the street has been in an outrageous
condition nearly at all times during the
winter, and was unsafe for heavy and
light traffic and even pedestrians. The
street was in no worse condition this
particular morning than at any other
time during the past thirty days, and
ii; is useless for Mr. McAllister or any
one else to try to make the traveling
1 public and the east end people in par
ticular. believe that this street was in
good condition, because I have heard
dozens of complaints coming from all
pearlers, every day. I have myself had
, to do from fifteen minutes to one hour’s
work every day on this same street
, before 1 would dare to try to get over
some of the worst places.
The snow all along Front street Is
from one to three feet higher (I mean
from Sesnon Company's office running
west) than the specifications call for
Rut you cannot expect anything much
different from McAllister, taking the
j contract for a starvation price and
. . having nothing but two old crippled
j I arses to carry out the same.
