Extraordinary Ice Con.

ONLY YOUNG ICE
Was Found to Contend With=-
Belyidere Loses Propeller
Off SIedge Island.

The whaling steamers jeanette, +.
w. Newth, master. and Belvidere, Geo.
+. Tilton, master, met extraordinary
ice conditions in Boring sea this spring
The steamers found only young ice to
contend with, and it was much broken
up. They reached the west end of st.
Lawrence island April II, the earliest
date of any steamers in reaching Boring
strait.
The Jeanette sailed and steamed
through the broken ice, making a
straight course at the rate of seven
knots for 80 miles in a gale, during
which the young ice flew over the rail.
Off ST Lawrence island the Jeanette
caught three whales, and later caught
another off the Diomedes. She has
nearly 10000 pounds of whalebone in
catch and trade. The following is the
catch of fleet: jeanette 4, Belvidere /,
VIM. Baylies . Alexander |. all the
others clean.
At midnight on June H. in coming
into Nome, the Belvidere lost her pro-
peller off Sledge island. This accident
converts her into "a sailing vessel, as
repairs cannot be made here.
There is a report among the whaling
fleet that Jas. Mckenna is at Unalaska
Arctic bound, with two whaling and
trading schooners, which have 40
tierces of alcohol on board for native
debauching purposes.
The whaling fleet will rendezvous at
Port Clarence July to receive supplies
from their tender.

perienCe With Ice Packs
and Weather.

Seven steamships, bringing probably
1000 passengers and full freight car
goes, arrived in port Monday. The
Tacoma, of the Northwestern Steam
ship Co., Capt. Connauton, was the
first to arrive, followed by the Pacific
Coast Steamship Co.'S Senator, Capt,
Patterson. The Victoria followed in
the afternoon. She left Seattle June
4, less than nine days in making the
trip, Notwithstanding the ice pack
found in Boring sea. The Tacoma and
the Senator sailed from Seattle June l.,
and they, too, found the ice heavy and
were forced to move slowly after enter
ing Bering sea.
The Senator and Victoria brought
back many of the leading mine opera
tors and well known old-timers, as did
also the well known Oregon, Capt
Warner, of the White Star line.
The Oregon reached Nome on Satur-
day afternoon about O'Clock. AS she
made her way through the ice pack,
she was taken for the Portland by
many people, and THE NUGGET so
stated, as the paper was just going to
press when the Oregon hove in sight.
This steamer also left Seattle on June
l, and considering the state of the ice
in Boring sea, made a remarkably
quick trip. The Oregon's cargo was
quickly discharged and she sailed for
Seattle Monday evening. The Oregon
was the second passenger vessel to
reach Nome last year, the Corwin pre-
ceding her by one day, on June ID.

called to the character Of this business
not particularly the Monte Carlo--as
to how such houses were conducted by
the Columbia last winter. A complaint
was made by some two or three people
what their motive was | don't know
they simply told me that it was one OF
the worst houses that had ever been
here. 1t set me to thinking. 1t set me
to thinking what would be my duty
when 1t came up to granting licenses.
1t was brought clearly to my notice that
q very immoral house had been con-
Quoted; such a house that would dis
grace any community in all the land;
and such house as would disgrace q
court il he knowingly would grant
license for 1t. Liquor licenses are,
within the contemplation and within
the intention of The law, not for such
places as are harbOrs for the crimes of
prostitution and gambling and rustling
and such crimes, and the proper way
under the circumstances, inasmuch as
the law invests the authority of grant
ing licenses in the court, is for the
court TO stamp the evil out at its source,
and the way to do that is to refuse the
licenses. The time has arrived in the
community of Nome when there must
be nothing but good men and law-abid-
ing ones in charge of licensed saloons;
a distinction was made in the interest
OF decency.~ A man can run a saloon,
but he must cease to do all these crimi-
nal acts which have been brought TO
our attention SO sharply by the evidence
in this case. We refuse this license,
and mean to see when other applica-
tions come to be passed on, shall scru-
tinize the applicants and applications
for licenses more than in the past. This

long as such practices are carried on
