TO BE RIDING SUFELY
CHEST OF ARCTIC ICE
NOME, Mar. 3.—The motorship
Baychimo of the Hudson Bay Com
pany, which was caught in the grip
of the Arctic winter and in a storm
was carried out to sea and report
ed sunk, is apparently still on top
of the water. At least this is the
opinion of Leslie Melvin, young
Seattle man who arrived in Nome
after mushing all the way from
Herschel Island.
Melvin, who visited the vessel,
said that there was no hole in the
vessel as had been first reported
and he also expressed the belief
that the vessel would ride safely
through the winter without any
undue damage. He said that the
ice had lifted *the vessel out of the
water and the ship is now riding
on the ice.
Melvin brought the flags from
the ship and even the Captain's
uniform when he mushed in from
! the ship. Melvin may fly to Fair
; banks and from there come to
| Seward on the train enroute to
l Seattle.
I However, he may possibly remain
at Nome until the arrival of Wm.
B. Graham and Mrs. Edna Christ -
offerson, and attempt to make
some kind of an agreement with
j them whereby he will direct them
i to the Baychimo.

ment that the only delegates to
the Democratic National Conven
tion were six from Alaska, and

QUESTION BOX
Why are Alaskans similar to
North American Indians?
Because they are rapidly becom
ing extinct.
Oh, yeah!

IDE TO THE CHINESE
SPOKANE, Wash. Mar. 3.—
Ten tons of silver from western

for transshipment to a steamer
not touching at a Japanese port.
This metal was originally des
I tined to be carried to China on R.

| couver, B. C., but at the last mo
i ment it was decided not to take
I the risk of sending it on a vessel
i that would pass through Japanese
: ports.
It was consequently shipped a
crcss to Victoria, B. C., to be there
picked up for shipment to San
Francisco, from where it will go
forward to China.

BOB raSOLL MADE
SPEECH DEFEND SILVER
Back in 1873-74 conditions were
about as now, they say, and during
the hard times of those days Col
onel Robert G. Ingersoll delivered
his famous “Address to Farmers,”
during which he had the following
to say about silver:
“For my part, I do not ask any
interference on the part of the
government except to undo the
wrong it has done. I do not ask 1
that money be made out of noth- I
ing. I do not seek for the pros- j
perity born of paper. But I do ask !
for the remedizing of silver.
“Silver was demonetized by fraud.
It was an imposition upon every
solvent man; a fraud upon every
honest debtor in the United States.
It assassinated labor. It was done
in the interest of avarice and greed
and should be undone by honest
men.”
