REPORTED MRIZ1KG OF
BOOZE ('A(HK
A persistent rumor floats about
the streets that the Federal officials
took a trip out into the hills and
came back laden with a good sized
load of booze which had been found
in a cabin. As no details are avail
able the public no doubt will receive
more definite information by fol

'have on this Victoria for the States
returning on the last boat of the

one the Weavers will combine pleas
ure with their business, visiting the

ver. Wm. McGuire will have charge

FOX FARMER RETURNS NOME
Nick Simeon arrived from Cape
Douglas Thursday afternoon in his
gas boat the Helen. Nick has en
deavored to start a fox farm at
Douglas, but has become thoroughly
convinced that for a man with small
capital to attempt this venture is
a losing game. To become success
ful in this business one must fence
in a large territory and keep etern
ally on the alert to see that drifts
are not formed to sufficient helghth
for the foxes to climb over. All
this takes money and vigilance. As
far as his venture developed Nick
is assured that propagation of the
arflmals can be accomplished if
proper financial means can be ob
tained .
Mr. Simeon will probably go to
some Southeastern Island and there
engage in the business of fox rais
ing for the market. These islands
afford better climatic conditions and
make the proposition more feasible.

HIGH^VATER REACHES
SEVERAL SMALL BOATS
The heavy rains of the last week
caused such high water In Snake
river that small boats were In dan
ger of being left high .and dry by
the receeding water. The White
Mountain and the hull owned by
Ous Hendricks were caught and con
siderable labor was necessary to
again place them In the river.
Other owners watched their ves»
Mels more carefully and escaped
this inconvenience.
SUCTION DREDGE ABOUT
READY FOR OPERATIONS
.7. J. Keenan informs us that
within 48 hoars after the unloding
of the Vic. the Snake river suction
dredge will begin work on the gra
vel of the river. Motors and pumpe
have been tried out and everything
found in proper condition. Certain
parts were ordered on the Vic., but
the peculiar method of loading
Nome freight made it necessary to
wait until the Victoria had unload
ed her St. Michael freight before
the Nome consignment could be com
pletely delivered.

DELINQUENT TAX ROLL OF
CITY AMOUNT VAST SUM
j City Clerk E. E. Grimm has
j been busy checking the delinquent
[ tax roll of the city for the years
! 1917-18-19-20-21. with the result
j that there appears on the city tax
books an unpaid tax amounting to
j $11,129.64.
This tax will be collected or the
property sold. Too many Nomeitea
live in the false security that taxes
are levied only to be paid when the
property owner sees fit. True, for
mer councils have been lenient with
delinquents, but the present council
will see that the taxes are paid or
the property taken over by the city
and sold.
A complete list will be published
with the legal period of limitation
and then offered for sale, if unpaid
