The plous John d. Roekefealer,
who gives millions to colleges ana
churches. has. taken..a handain the
coal famine: AS people can not get
coal they bought oil stoves and burn
kerosene for warmth. Last:fall coal
oil was eight cents a gallon. AS
people had to have it or freeze Mr..
Rockefeller only raised the price
four cents q gallon and contented
himself with the small ,sum OF, $9S
100000 as increased profits rs.the
Standard Oil Co.. It must be re,
membered that very large part OF
this sum, comes out of the very poor
people of the large cities who cannot
pay from $12 to $40 - ton for coal.
OF all the .mopopolies the Standard
Oil Co. is the closest and most pow
erful and at the same time the mean77
est. Last year Mr. Rockefeller, land
his brother had an SIS, 900, 900 semi
yearly dividend. on their Standard
Oil stock.i This. year their pr0hF
will be very much, increased
We suggest that Mr.. Rockefeller
with some of that SO million should
pay off the debt of the Baptist church
here and establish a Chautauqn8u on
Mokoma Heights. If he does we
will give him good notice in the
Item, and will, agree, that he may
(at his own, expense) put a aicolored
window in the chapel to the honor
of st. John Rockefeller.

BRAVE LIFE SAVERS.

The work of intrepid men saved the lives of two human beings Thursday night last. The unfortu- mates nearly lost their lives in the surf of Boring They were skilled boatmen at that but in the twink ling of an eye by some fortutous circumstance. they were face to face with death. Happily willing hearts and ready hands their peril and rescued them. You walk up and down the streets of Nome and stroll along the beach and you meet quiet suming men, roughly clad, they may be, who are ready to face all the perils of the sea, when human life is at stake. And you give them thought, save when some unusual transpres that for the moment stirs your blood. Then these life savers are forgotten-until they save another life or two. How ever let it be said for these brave that they ask no reward recognition. They simply discharge what seems to them plain duty, and the knowledge that it is done we'll satisfies them Bravery and heroism deserve recognition, not merely words of praise but proper appreciation of humane services rendered Gold and silver medals are Bestowed in
 the states life savers, and braver acts of cue were ever chronicled there than have been wit messed for the vast three years on this coast We cite this fact because it is existent occurred but two days ago, others may follow today or tomor- row. We are without life saving system in Nome; we certainly shall be for this at leas there fore, we will have to depend upon the hardy heroes called the boatmen of the beach, to rescue human lives when they are endangered in the surf THE Nue. GET has opened subscription list for the purpose of rendering slight acknowledgment to life savers- as a reward of merit The amounts subscribed will be seen in another column and any addition thereto will be duly acknowledged.
