The Jackson Day Dinner held
at the Nevada Grill Monday ev
ening proved to be one of the
most enjoyable affairs of the win
ter season, with fine food, wine
and music.
Toastmaster M J Walsh intro
duced the numerous speakers in
eluding Judge J H S Morison,
District Attorney Chas J Clasby,
U S Commissioner C C Tanner
and Senator O D Cochran. Fol
lowing the above speakers Toast
master Walsh called upon sever
al for impromptu remarks. A cor
dial welcome was extended to
Republicans and other guests
j who attended the ceremonial
banque arranged by the Demo
cratic organization of Nome.
Music supplied by the Nevada
orchestra was greatly appreciat
ed as was the sumptious meal.
Indicative of our time were
the numerous addresses eulogiz
ing the memory of the 7th Presi
dent of the United States, An
drew Jeckson, to whom the pre
servation and domination of the
Union were more important than
any other question.
Personal liberty and the right
to live, speak, print and worship
as we please, were typical of the
discussions which ensued.
The critical condition of affairs
of personal liberty in other parts
of the world were compared to
the state of affairs as they exist
in the United States today—dir
ectly traceable to the will and
determination of the prominent
men of Jackson’s time, who
fought so courageously to lift the
United States to the position of a
united nation, based on a consti
tutional form of government.
Many of the historical events
in which Jackson participated
were related, to the enlighten
ment and enjoy*ent of the many
dinner guests. The banquet came
to an end about 9:30, with a vote
of thanks to all those who devot
ed themselves to putting it over.
The PAA mail plane arrived
Tuesday from Fairbanks with a
large consignment of first and
other classes of mail, and one
passenger from Golovin. The
plane departed at 1 pm Tuesday
on its return flight with Garnet
Martin, Jack Fricke, and one oth<
er.
- — -
Incoming passenger aboard the
PAA yesterday was George Bay
er. bookkeeper at the Nveada,
who has been away on a vaca- i
tion for some time past.
Outgoing in addition to Garnet
Martin and Mr. Fricke was L H
McCloy.
Remember the Xmas Benefit
baseball game tonight at the
school gym at 8 o’clock. The A1
askans vs the Nome team start
the games off and the Hammon
team plays the Commercials.
Tomorrow afternoon at 4:30
Lehmann’s big drawing will take
place. Five prizes the offered
the first of which is $100 in
cash.
Pilot Cross arrived from Kotze
hue Tuesday with Paul Davido
vics as a passenger, who came to
Nome to take up the matter of
relicensing his beverage dispen
sary at Kotzbeue.
Last week, Judge J H S Mori
'son of the U S District Court den
ied the applications of four resi
dents of Kotzebue for liquor li
censes on the basis of two con
flicting petitions received from
Kotzebue—one in favor of grant
ing the applicants their licenses
and the other opposed to the li
censing of liquor stores in the vil
lage of Kotzbue.

JURY UNABLE TO AGREE
IS DISCHARGED
A jury, was obtained in the
case of the U. S. vs Nome Mer
cantile and Mining Co. in the
U. S. Commissioner’s court Tues
day morning and argument com
menced on the case. Court was
adjourned over the noon-hour
and the case was resumed at 2
pm. Following are the names of
those composing the jury: B D
Camp, Mrs W F Baldwin, W A
Boucher, . Mrs A D Stormfeltz,
Gus Hendrickson, Chris Johnson,
A L Hanson, J B Hurley, John H
Olson, George Modini Nels Swan
berg Jr. and D R Jackson.
Inrtoduction of evidence and
testimony by the government &
the defense in the case of the
U S vs Nome Mercantile and Min
ing Co. occupied the attention of
Vne court Tuesday and Wednes
day mornings.
Arguments to the jury were
made by District Attorney Clas
by and defense attorney O D
Cochran, and the case went to
the jury before noon today. The
jury went out to lunch and then
returned to its deliberations.
Strangly stressed as the vital
element in the case was whether
the defendant sold a quart bottle
of liquor to Malcolm McLeod
while he was in an intoxicated
condition in violation of the Al
aska Liquor Law, and with
which the defendant is charged.
It appeared that the crux of the
matter was whether McLeod was
intoxicated at the time of the
sale—a contention of drunken
ness being made by the govern
men and refuted by defense wit
nesses.
At 5 pm the jury was unable to
agree on a verdict so was dis
charged by the U S Commission
er.
