| As the public has been educated t. look upon the Code moving picture shows as e regular semi weekly affair to continue during the Winter, they will be sorry to learn that the manager of the company has decided to take his outfit into the interior for the Winter and give the people in that l section of Alaska a chance to witness the latest things in the moving picture line.
 B. B. DObbs has returned to spend the Winter in Nome, and the public may induce him to give a series of shows during the Winter. for the rec ord he has made in the past for giving a first -class show should warrant him In re-entering the field and giving the people change in recreation. With out something of this kind to break the long Winter siege of dancing which predominates during the closed sea- son. there will be little entertainment for those who don't indulge in the light fantastic.

According to his statements the

said. 1T would break your hearts.
One Of the first things to be done,
continued the commissioner, is 10

slave trade. There is no use denying
that there is such a trust, and the
sooner We realize it the better off We
will be-

Bingham was asked to amplify re-

He referred his questions to his an

1.-THE traffic of importing women. es
ecially among the French. has re-
eived careful attention from the de-

raffic is found TO he Of large dimen-
;ions. There seems 10 be very
flight difficulty in getting women into

ne immigration authorities are easi'yI
net by various simple subterfnges.
The new law which went into effec;
fully |. 1907. should be Of great help
but the traffic still goes on and will
continue until drastic Federal meas
