 Here Is littlr information for you. The delegate from Alaska recommends .Georgr F Grieshy for the position of .districf attorney at Nome. but Mir Roosevelt stated positively that he would BaG nominate him. IIc gayr no rca~"us fur refusing tn nominate Mir Grig~by. buf gave Mr Gale a list uf applicants all of whom had applied for the job aud told him that if he did not like any ef those. he could uominata sam, hudz alsa Sehriug. who former E acted as Judge Maarc's secretary. Na~ among the uumher and so also was John Eus,gard and several other N"mcitc~ | don't think amy of these people Mil la. appointed. There ar. so many knockers here that II k probable that t4, president will E" outside the district for man Pete overfieId serm~ To have better chance than any of the other Alaskan candidates al present. but as the appointment Will not hc made for Somc time. many ehaugcs atr liable to take place.
 since Roosevelt is out of the prcsi- lcutial race. politicians here are more than busy seeking votes to the nation al convention If an Alaskan were here with couple of proxies to the big convention right now. he could get al- most anything he might want. Six Alaskan delegates were elected to the tttliilil tfltNfi4AlHii. bdt tll'-St NfIf AAil down tu two hy the national committee don't know who win have those two vateS hut if some man who wants tn back Grisshy for the district attorney ship were here right now and could da- liver the Alaskan delegation. or even d half of it. believe h. could land the job without any trouble
 Besides myself. Bolander is about tho only person from Nome Wno has yet arrived in Washington Eolander had an interview with the president in re- gard to some Nome matters. but I don't kuow whether or not he said anything
 bout the district attorneyship.
 Biou Dodge. of Fairbanks. has been here for a few days past don't know what he iS after but think he wants !.
