 It is said that Councilman King i, slated for mayor. The question that seems to be of surpassing interest is, "Who shall be chieI of pollce?'
 The new council held a caucus yes- terday afternoon, but two of the mem berS-elect were absent and nothing was done, it is said. One of the c0uncilmen said: We agreed upon nothing. but we will probably meet a9aIn on Thurs day afternoon. and if we cannot agree in caucus the appointment of officers and other matters will have to he threshed out in the council"
 There are at least four candidates for chief of police who are sure oi being appointed. A number of candi' dates for city clerk also express them selves as having the place within their grasp. As for the office of city attor ney, there does not seem to be much contention over it.

J. p. Rudd Rooms This
 Part of Alaska
HE WAS IN DETROIT
And Talked Interestingly of Min. ing, Politics and General
 Conditions in Alaska.

1 James r. Rudd was in Detroit, Mich. by all the Detroit newspapers. Mr. Rudd knows the value of newspaper advertising, and clippings received by THE NUGGET show that he availed himself of it to the fullest extent. Some of his stories were weird enough to satisfy the most credulOus. Following is all interview which appeared in the Detroit Free Press of Jan. 24, last;
 We are for Roosevelt first. last and all the time. If the entire convention should turn against him we would still cast our four little ballots for him. We want to see him elected, for we believe that he has our best interests at heart and would do more for Alaska than any man either party could place in the White house."
 The speaker was Jamess P. Rudd, of Nome, Alaska, who, at the present time, Is stopping at the Metropule, and W ho is m Detroit on business connected with the firm which he represents, the Merchants X Miners Transportation Co.
 Hast summer Roosevelt sent a sena- tOrial delegation up into our country 70 look us over. and they went away satls- fled that Alaska has great possibilities before 1t. What we are fighting for just now is representation Tn congress at Washington. The Indians, the Phil ippines and Hawaii have it, and 1 thInk that we are just as much entitled to be heard in the congress of the nation as any other colony or possession.

Carpet Baggers in Alaska.

Alaska has four votes in the nation al convention, and those votes will be cast for Roosevelt in the hope that he will end the carpet-bag government with which Alaska is cursed at the present tune. We believe that the federal officers in Alaska should be se lected from our own territory. not from the broken down sports ot the States. We have good men up there. Men who went to the best colleges in the country, and are fully fitted to be lead CTS.
 The future of Nome and the whole of Alaska, in fact, is bound up in the gold inning industry. Around Nome we have strip of territory 30 miles long and 20 miles wide that IS stocked with millions of dollar. of the precious metal. don say that d man can go up tbere and pick gold of the ground, but one who perseveres can locate pay ing claim.
 One thing that has done much to discredIt the country are the fake min ing companies who go up there, buy few acres of land and then come down in the States, open luxuriously fur nshed office and sell a lot of worthless stock. We are dOIng all in our power to suppress such companies.
