Tests which have just been COM

wireless communication across the

telegraphing through the air without

been carried far enough to prove that
it will probably be the popular way OF
sending messages before many years

TIE NUGGET fails to see the ne cessity of holding an election to fill vacancies in the city council. There IS little work to be done by that body during tho winter season. and the interests of the city will not be leopard zrd by the fact that the council Is shy councilman or two. The expense of holding such election would be considerable and i. is submitted that the benefits to be derived would not be commen- >urate with the expense that would be entailed. It is stated that City Attorney Sullivan holds that ! councilman cannot sign; once be- ing elected he may be compelled te serve the term for which he was elected. This being the case Mir Tierney is still de iacto a council man and may resume his seat. The only vacancy existing therefore would be the seat of Capt. Geigsr who has left the country.

It's good thing to patronizc home industry. We in Nome, and to who-e people they are indebted not only for their means of subsistence, but for their nual diyidends we'll, invariably get their printing done the 'outsde." Why? Because it is cheaper. Yet these same business men do not pretend to sell their goods, wares and merchandise at ''outside prices; that IS those who pretend to do Legitimate business do not. The who sells goods away be- low cost will always find customers. It IS law o human nature if 1t is bad for the community, taken in true sense. We are not of the narrow school O political economists, which would sacrifice the many for the benefit of the few; may say, in fact that believe that every man has the right to buy in the cheapest market and sell in the dearest bu, there are some duties which owe to friends and neighbors. We would rather patronze home in dustry than one which has its location in a foreg land, everything else being about equal. Ii home manufactured article is pretty nearly good as one manufac tured elsewhere we'll take the home produc, every time. If an Alaska product comes the standard ws'll select that in preference to one inn ported from the states" and which, probably, s mol good for the standing given it by it's reputa ton.

RESTITUTION AMONG NATIVES.

The report published in the last issue of this news paper, touching the starving condition of number of natives Pilgrim river should be looked into. It is not within the province of the municipality of Nome to do so it to the responsibility rests with the government of the United States, but the representatives of the government in this section claim and no doubt rightly, that they are not en' powered to render the Eskimos any assistance. It has been done, however, heretofore. During the win ter of 1900 the military authorities at Fort Davis sent an expedition up the and into the interior of the Kougarok country, distributing supplies to the starving aborignes. Some little help was also fur nished few natives last year. Common humanity demands that these poor people be not permitted o starve to deatas.
 The neglect of the government toward these natives is little short of being atrocous This newspaper has published many articles showing the condition of these patient people Agents of the various depart.

AS TO CITY WARRANTS.

TfH NUGGET heretofore, has published articles wherein the advisability of carrying or the business of the city business principles has been advocated
 Chief among the reforms suggested has been that which affects the issuance oi city warrants The process pursued is sort of happy -So-ucky. It is of every man for himself and the de'il take the hndmost.n There outstanding warrants of year or more which still remain unpaid There are warrants issued week ago which have been used to pay taxes for the year. That is to say that the city treasury has acknowledged the receipt of sra thousands of dollars, by means of city warrants. which will not be paid year hence; that is to say that warrants issued year ago hayo been forced in- to the background while recent issue has been honored They have been accepted cash, in lieu ot the payment of taxes in the coin of the republic Who suffers thereby Manifestly the who ex- tended credit to the municipality year ago. while the official hawker bought up warrants issued two three months ago, or less, and realized full value for them. former city official IS said 10 have turned some $l7OO worth of warrants into the city treasury in pa yment of taxes He bought up recent issues and cashed them thus securing cash for the warrants which he held for his personal salary. We do not blame him, but do blame tho system which allows this procedure. There $ no one to blame e1- cept the city council. The warrant system now in vogue IS vague, lOOSc ana uISdlSiactOIy It suOUIO be remodclsd and system perfected which will avoid the charge of looseness and ineficency. As 1t stands it is absurdty City warrants should bear interest. When, after issue, they presented to the city for payment, and there funds to meet them should be recorded the back of the warrants, and thereafter they should bear fair of interest. This is the system followed in every and county in the United States, of which have cegnzance Why should the creditors of the city of Nome be ccmpelleI to wait for indefinite time for their money2 There is neither justice equity in the system which obtains.
 The police officers who preserve the peace of the city compelled to hawk their warrants from door to door should they wish to dispose of them in order to obtain the means of sustenancc. And even then they must submit to 20 per cent discount. This s not right. It is not just decent, There is no apparent reason why city warrants should be at Q discount. The ctys indebtedness is not great and a warrant should be worth it's face value. But it will not be until the city council provides that all war rants shall draw interest," after being presented for payment, when .here funds in the treasury to meet tho demand
