 Nome is emerging from the finest winter, climatically speaking, in the history of the camp. Old "sourdoughs" say that it resem bles to great extent, the winter of 1S99-19O0, only that it surpasses even that winter in it's beau tiful weather.

 The fad of William Dibble, former wood dealer who left Whitehorse few days ago with, it is said, upwards of 5000 in his pocket for the outside, is to corral all the longshoremen in town and buy them whisky. That is what Williams is said to have done at Skag- way. He rounded up all the long shoremen in town and marched from one saloon to another, not pausing to think that pouring whisky into the guzzle of longshoreman is like pour ing it into gopher hole so far as fill ing the vacuum is concerned. Williams crowd stayed with him and when res cued by friend Monday night he had but S26o of his original capital left. The money was placed in safe hands and when the wood dealer resumes his normal condition he will be placed on steamer and shipped below, his cash being handed to him over the rail after the gang plank has been hauled in. This is said to be the third time Dib- ble has started for the outside, drop ping his entire roll at Skagway on both l former occasions.-Star.

 Photographic advices have been re- ceived from Marshal Perry at Eagle that the construction of the court house and jail would not be commenced for some time yet owing to the uncer- tainty as to whether the judicial divi' sion would be divided.

 Heavy mining promoters, lawyers business men and others of the hlon- dike. who have visited London and Paris this winter, bring back important reports as to the reason why no share of the millions of capital there idle and seeking investment has not come into the Klondike the last two or three years.

If the negro pays his poll tax and

registration books.
When election day approaches he
goes to the polls and is given ballot

rectly it is counted; if he omits to
mark it or marks it incorrectly, it is
not counted.
AS we vote under the Australian

white party friends, have rarely if

There is no intimidation of voters
nor suppression of votes. This is a
charge against the south only heard
away from home-a chimera thatdoe
not longer exist in the brain of any
resident republican.
