Reports from the Nome Fin
nish Relief Committee indicate
that the drive in Nome went o'v
er with a big bang to the tune
of $537 with reports that several
other donaions in Nome are yet
jto be made.
The committee wished to ex
press its enthusiastic apprecia
tion for the manner in which the
people of Nome responded to the
entreaty for aid for the non-com
batant Finnish people.
The drive was conducted for
Thursday, Friday and Saturday
of last week. It is believed that!
for the first three days of any,
drive in the Territory, Nome >
has eclipsed any oher city in its!
response.
Communications are yet to be I
heard from outlying points on!
Seward Peninsula, which will;
swel the fund to an even greater |
high. The specia drive is a mat
ter of history, but the commit
tee announces that in case any
one was overlooked, any dona
tions will still be accepted with
thanks.
Another Repubican candidate1
has filed his candidacy for the
primary election—Kenneth Dean,
Rude of Nome.
He has filed for Represent-1
ative. This makes four Republic!

ator on the Republican ticket has •
been made; and as yet no candi- i
dates on the Democratic ticket
jhave filed for the House.
Telegraphic word from Juneau'
'today indicated that U S Marshal]
B B Miozee and his party of in-!
sane prisoners, and guards ar- i
rived there Saturday from Fair-j
banks and were sailing for Seat!
] tie tonight.
