ed and this foundation has been proven
to the minds of most every thoughtful
person who appreciates thoroughly this
great important factor.
Our Seattle branch and cash payment
for our wares gives us the advantage of
procuring a better quality goods, which
we then retail here at Nome at the
standard prices prevailing, giving the
patron extra quality for the same
prices as of goods sold elsewhere which
are not up to our medium of quality.
This point is so forcibly carried and
proven by our Dry Pack Butter, a
Pasteurized, germ proof better keep
ing Butter, which is more sweet and
toothsome than mere words of expres
sion can convey, and that you will
know the goodnfss of this BETTER
BUTTER we are going to make it a
speciality of this week only. Our
price is 37'/2C per pound, and we will
expect that you take advantage of this
treat to yourself and take home a

It is stated that one hundred rein
deer will arrive in the city from Gol
ovin about the middle of the.week. The
animals will be taken out on the tun
dra back of Nome and will later be
slaughtered and the carcasses shipped
to the outside markets. This shipment
of reindeer will probably be the begin
ning of a series of shipments from this
section and will really mark the be
ginning of a new industry from which
Reward peninsula will ultimately de
rive considerable profit now that the
law allows the unrestricted shipment
af reindeer meat from Alaska. In this
connection It will be well to remind
local dog owners that care must be
taken to restrain their animals from
annoying or attacking the deer as there
is a special enactment of the late leg
islature, approved April 2S, which per
mits of the killing of all dogs annoy
ing sheep, leindeer, cattle or horses or
other domestic animals. The following
is the law in full.
An act to authorize the killing of dogs
under certain conditions.
Be It enacted by the legislature of the
territory of Alaska:
Section 1. It shall be lawful for any
person at any time to kill any vicious
or mad dog found running at large.
Section 2. Any dog which when un
provoked has ever bitten or attacked
a human being shall he deemed vicious
In contemplation of section 1 of this
act.
Section 3. Whenever any dog habi
tually annoys reindeer, sheep, cattle
or horses or other domestic animals or
domestic fowls or evinces a disposition
which renders It likely that It will
without provocation bite such animals
or fowls, it shall be lawful for any
person to kill such dog, when at large:
Provided however, that the owner or
keeper of such dog, If known, or upon
reasonable opportunity to restrain
such dog before It shall become lawful
to kill it under the provisions of this
seetlon.
Approved, April 28, 19115.

OFFENSIVE IN
FRANCE
A. P. A. Service.
PARIS, Aug. 2.-—The official reports
of the war office state that the invad
ers are maintaining a heavy offensive
along both the right and left wings and
fighting of the most savage character
is in progress in Flanders and along
the mountain slopes In the Vosges sec
tion. An increased pressure against
the British lines near Ypres indicates
that the Germans are again attempting
to force their way to the coast. Heavy
fightifig has progressed in this section
for the past twenty-four hours and the
losses have been especially severe. As
in the former attempts to fight through
to the coast, the Germans are sacrific
ing thousands to no purpose as their,
heavy assaults have been rolled back
it all points. The Germans are again
bombarding the French positions at
Arras and artillery actions are also
?oing on in the vicinity of Verdun.
The French have made important
tains in the districts east of the Mo
ielle and the enemy have abandoned
several lines of entrenchments.
