City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, JULY 20, 1915.
The Xugget is now selecting the
material for the Sixth Annual Mining
and Dredging Edition of this paper
and an the forthcoming number will he
in many respects a radical change from
the Issues of the past, a few remarks
concerning the Intentions of the pub
lishers will not lie amiss at the pre
sent time, especially as we are to a
degree seeking the cooperation of the
public In our endeavors to make the
1915 edition the best nnd most Inter
esting that has so far appeared. Fol
lowing along the lines suggested by
last years Issue, which also differed
in a great degree from still earlier'
numbers, the 1915 edition will contain
not only the material features of the
earlier Issues hut in addition will
cover a field that has heretofore been
almost entirely neglected owing to the
mining industry being given a pre
ference over all other subjects. In the
beginning, the primary intent in issu
ing the magazine was to encourage
mining activity in the district nnd to
lend all possible aid in fostering the
dredging industry, then in its infancy.
In this respect It has served a most
tiseful purpose in the past and the
publishers feel that their efforts have
not been wasted in devoting the pages
of the magazine entirely to such in
terests. \t the present time, however,
it is felt that those Industries are so
sufficiently well established as to need
hut little of such aid or encouragement
as can be offered through the medium
of a mining journal and as n conse
quence the space that has been de
voted almost entirely to featuring the
different aspects of the mlnln- Indus
try can now be devoted to broader uses
and It has been conceived that the I
magazine can best fulfill a useful pur
pose by extending the subject mntter*
to embrace not only the mining fea
tures of the territory but also every
other feature of interest peculiar to
this section of Alnskn. In brief, It will.!
in the future, he the aim of the pub-i
Ushers to mako the Mining and Dredg-'
ing Edition ns broadly descriptive of
the whole of Seward Peninsula as ran'
he conveniently done in a publication
of that size. In pursuance of this Idea
the 1915 edition will attempt to cover1
I every interesting feature of the terri
tory. and it will lie our endeavor to
overlook nothing In the way of infor
mation that will add to the Interest of
the magazine and help to disseminate
a fuller knowledge of Seward Penin
sula and all that it contains. In ad- i
dition to helm* an index of tlie mining
activities of this section, the forth
coming number will embrace every
feature of the conditions and activities
of this region. The business and social
life, the sports and amusements of the
people, the animal and bird life pecu
liar to the district, will all be delin
eated as comprehensively as possible.
Also especial attention will be paid to
the native Eskimo, their habits, eus-,
toms and traditions, all of which aro|
of the most interesting order when
clearly presented to the understanding.
In short, everything of interest con
tained within the confines of the dis
trict will receive consideration to the
end that the magazine may he as fully
descriptive of Sewar.d Peninsula, its
resources, its people and their activi
ties, as enn lie conveniently handled
within the compass of the volume, in
addition to the written articles it will
he our endeavor to add still further to
the interest by illustrating as far as
possible every story contained within
the pages of the magazine. In this, as
much as in the descriptive matter con-|
talned, it will lie the aim to cover os
much ground as possible. In order that
the reader may fully comprehend
every feature of that which is describ
ed in the written articles. As previous
ly stated we intend to make the 191 f>
edition the best that has so far boon
•presented to the inspection of the pub
lic and in pursuance of this idea no
effort or expense will be spared that
will enhance the value or interest of
the publication. In conclusion, it can
he stated that the general public can
greatly aid our efforts in building a
magazine that will he unequalled by
any similar publication Issued in the
territory, by sending in photographs
of any interesting feature of this sec
tion of Alaska. Photos descriptive of
any feature of mining or the life and
activities of Seward Peninsula will lie
gratefully received and the public arc
urged to cooperate with us by sending
in their views as early as possible so
that We may have ample time to make
selections.
