MANY SIGNATURES
TO PETITION TO
ROAD COMMISSION
The petition to the Alaska Road
Commission which was open to signers
at the Election booths and has since
been circulated with great thorough
ness by Dr. K. D. Graven of Kouga
rok and a copy of which - waits at
Polet's store for the signature of any
who have not yet signed and desire to
do so now has about 1,100 names. Of
those 000 were affixed on election day
and Dr. Graven has seoured most of
the remainder.
The petition recites the total gold
output of Seward Peninsula as almost
one hundred million dollars with wide
and rich areas yet unworked; that
development has been retarded toy
lack of transporatlon; that such rovds
as have been built have been of in
estimable value and that they are in
sufficient for the needs of the Penln
sula which is greater than the state of
New York; that new methods of min
ing require machinery which can be
hauled only on roads; that new roads
would faciliate the handling of mails
both in winter and summer and do
away with the delays and dangers of
the circuitous coast route In summer;
that the construcetion of a trunk line
post road from Nome to Candle via
Kougarok and Immachuk will open up
the greater part of the interior and is
recesfa.y to the development of this
gie.it timing center; in consideration
o' which the undersigned earnestly
petition the Commission to construct
a trunk line Post road from Nome to
' Candle via Kougarok and Immachuk.

he up-to-date mechanician was at the

ruck is being run here on the 15th
of November.
Local Wlckershamlte3 who have
been keeping close tulley say that
here Is only a matter of some thirty
votes or so between Wlckersham and
Sulzer with the latter In the lead.
Irnoko precincts aro expected to favor
Wlckersham to this extent. Then there
remains the returns from Haycock,
the Ben Wade precincts, Kobuk and
Point Barrow. They ure liable to i
vote 60 or more Eskimos up at Bar
row and they may decide the contest.
Then, whichever way they vote, won’t
there be a rumpus?
