I tie Ideas of the Ininaehuk people in
regard to the forth coming election;
The suggestion of Andy Anderson
and George James that a candidate for
the senatorship to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Mr. El wood
Bruner, tie selected by majorities of
mass assemblies throughout the Di
vision. Is certainly a good idea. It
would do away with the cumbrous and
vexations convention methods and nar
row file nomination to one man on
whom we could all unite and send to
his seat with a unainmous vote. The
Gentlemen above named are where they
can reach Juneau in time for the or
ganization of the Legislature. Tin**
both stand right on pending mining
legislation and are thorough going pro

Kitlier of these Gentlemen are well
thought of in this section and we hope
one of them will be chosen, hut Nome's
selection will be otir selection Nome

FIRST TAXES
ARF PAID ON
STEAMERS
For (tie first time in Hie history of
Fairbanks, taxes were paid on steam
boats recently, and this increased the
funds in the city treasury ffxo. The
payment was made by the American
Yukon Navigation company which in
the past lias no right to tax steauiboajs
Now that Hie American-Yukon Na
vigation company lias recognized the
right of the city to assess steamboats,
it is expected that other steamboat
owners will not oppose assessments,
and tiiat this new source of revenue P>
the city will amount to about $i,000 a
year.
M’BRIDE TO
GO OUTSIDE
In all the time that Hie public has
been discussing the various candidates
for the clerk of the court, it seems
that no one has stopped to question
what will become of Angus .McBride
when lie resigns his position in favor
of a Democratic appointee for the Job.
Mr. McBride lias said little about his
plans, and it was only the other day
ihni he explained incidentally in n con
versation Hint lie is planning to go Out
side Just us soon as ills official duties
here come to an end.
When asked what he would do when
he reached the Outkide, Mr McBride
s.ild that ho has not decided, and proh
it Idv lie would no| dr. (do until some
lime after frettim? there, tlia ambition
Is to pet into l im mountains and enjov

COMMUNICATED
The statement made in yesterday’s
Nugget over the signature of tho "An
derson Campaign Committee" was in
tended to convey the impression of so
much fairness on tlie part of the writer
ns to he convincing of the honesty of
purpose of the committee, but was so
false as to show t lit* sinister purpose
of the writer.
in making the statement that Air.
James favors a railroad lT«»m Tellei to
the Kougmok Country instead of from
Nome* over the present line of load al
I'-ady built, thereby implying that
James supports a scheme not favorable
j to Nome is contradicted by the facts.
The facts are that Air. James was
11 he prime mover in calling a mass
meeting in Nome urging the rehabilita
tion of the present road and extending
ii into the heart of the Kuugarok
< 'ountry.
Mr. Janies in a clear, logical and
, forceful I manner placed the facts be
fore the meeting and was at that time
ami is now in favor of the present
railroad as a means of opening up tin*
Kougarok Country.
It is believed tin* faJse statement
! made by the Anderson Campaign
I Committee" is ilno largely to ignorance
j of the facts, as it is evident that ueithei
the members of the committee or tlie
| writer of the article in the Nugget were
. present at tho meeting, and evldentlv
I have not read the circular statements
issued and given wide circulation in
support of the present railroad from
Nome to the Kougarok
.lames not only favored the present
I road but was the one man who was
j
mainly responsible for the Nome mass
meeting urging the rehabilitation of
the present road and was one of the
main speakers in support of that meas
ure at the citizens mass meeting at
Nome.
It is evident that the “Anderson
I campaign Committee’ are worried over
Mr .lames' popularity In this election.

BIRDSEYE VIEW OF NOME. THE FARTHEST NORTH AMERICAN CITY OF UNCLE SAM ON BERING SEA.
Mm In order to convince the public of Nome tltat the statements of
the Nugget, as to the tourist question were not mere vaporings, that
W there would indeed he a serious attempt to divert to Alaska a portion
of that vast army of sightseers who will visit the Pacific Slope during
the coming summer, the Nugget has taken special pains to ascertain
with certainty the full extent of the movement and also to learn the
opinions of those best qualified to know as to its probable succes*
That the statements published at intervals in the Nugget are not idle
buncombe, that it is an absolute and irrefutable fact that a most
tremendous movement with a backing which practically assures it*
^A success, has been started, and that, without a question of a doubt, a
vast number of sightseers will journey to the shores of Alaska during
the coming season, i* attested by the following facts obtained by the
Nugget's Seattle correspondent under instructions to secure only
^ such data as w as absolutely reliable and such opinions as were worthy
A of careful consideration.
The following arc the results of the Nugget's investigations
The Alaska and Pacific Coast Steamship companies are both making
concerted efforts to increase the tourist trade, not only to Southeast
^a ern Alaska but to Seward Peninsula as well.
The Alaska Steamship Company has already announced that
JM the Victoria w ill make special excursion trips June 28. July 26, sailing
' w to Nome direct and returning via the. inside passage and is offering
X greatly reduced rates for the round trip.
M The Senator will make no *peeial trips but will offer *p*o*«t
imbtcejiients to those desiring to make the round trip to this section
Roth companies in addition to an extensive newspaper campaign
1
are maintaining booths anil information bureaus at tin' sau l inn
cisco and San Diego Expositions.
All lines to Southeastern \luska points arc preparing mi a big
increase in summer travel, and are already making arrangements in
handle it.
Mr. Harry Brandt, < icneral Agent >>i the I’acinc i >«ast >t<-am
ship Company, states that lie expects a greatly increased imt'ti via
the inside passage, down the Yukon and outside via \ om
Traffic Manager Zipf, of the While Pass, predicts unprcccdeii
river trav el during the summer.
E. C. McMiken, acting San brancisco agent m tin* W bit'
who will be remembered as an old Noineite, states dial the \\ lm
Pass promises through rates via X'onie, provided Ins company can
make the desired arrangements with the new owner- .u the
Corwin.
The agents of all steamslnp coinpames handling Y..* -,
assert that arrangements will be made whereby tourist' vvid I.,
enabled to stop in Nome from _’y to 5(1 hours at least
Everett Clark, Assistant Passenger Agent of the Uasku Meam
sliip Compauv say' with enthusiasm that it looks like a i,anm 1
\ ear lor Nome and his company will coopciate with In Ymyg. 1 1
boosting the tourist trav el to Seward Peninsula.
Here is the evidence that sound, level headed 1 nsiness men. nmu
who calculate both words and actions, are not only confident that the
Northland will he an immense attraction during the coming -e*tan
but are also showing their faith by spending large sums in adv erting
the attractions offered.
