NOME CLEANUP
WILL BE BIG
Expect Take Out Larger Amount
This Year Than Last—Big
Spring Cleanup.
That the Nome cleanup lliis
spring will be much greater
than it was last year is now ab
solutely certain, is the statement
'of the Nome Nugget. Both Nome
hanks have already received more
gold this year than they had re
ceived at the same date last year
although the season is very much
later. It could not of course be
ascertained by how much exact
ly the cleanup is greater than
that of the previous spring as
the bank ollicials are not* at. litt
ery to give detailed accounts of
tlie various amounts received
and as all the dumps are not yet
cleaned up and no method could
be trusted for allowing for the
amount not yet washed. Mr.
Sheldon of the Alaska Bank says
that the amount of gold receiv
ed this spring by his institution
is very considerably greater. Mr.
Baedehler of the Miners and
Merchants Bank says that the
cleanup is very much greater
this year but he expected it, and, j
indeed, was quoted in this paper
some months ago as saying that
the output would be far in excess
of what it was last year.
The dumps are not, of course,
all cleaned up yet and are not
cleaned up to the extent that
they were this time last year so
that when it is said that the
cleanup is already greater than
it was last year it means ttiat it
will be still greater when all the
dumps are sluiced.
