THINGS We Should Copy.

AS Col. Roosevelt has just said, the
new industrial and factory world
brings astounding economic problems.
We may yet have even to compete
with the Eastern world in the factory

their most valuable economics in foods
and in clothing, especially when these

HE IS NOW PORK
 KING ONCE MORE

With nine dog teams and two tons of smoked meats, Tom McMahon once more has the situation well in hand. He came in early last week with ham and bacon enough to supply all the amature "corners" in the country.
 The return trip from Holy Cross was not without it's difficulties. Tom had engaged Simon as the leader of his Indian forces and with plenty of can ines started overland for Flat City. They passed through the Reindeer creek country and found some very heavy going, taking nine and half days for the journey. The Indians said they could get back in five days any way, and they left Wednesday, striking due west from the mouth of Otter.
 There are two barges at Holy Cross, caught there by the late season. One of them is empty and the other has considerable quantity of provisions aboard The ham and bacon has been the chief call since it was discovered that the Iditarod was supposed to be short. It develops however, that nearly every private speculator in the country has more bacon than he can eat in the next ten years, 50 just cheer

 Those lemon pies that were wont to cheer the day when New Year revives old desires, they too, will be but fgment ot the imag- ination.
 They do say that Frank Miller, Ot the Miners Home saloon, has 25 cases on the Minneapolis at Lewis landing. Some ct these are reported frozen, but even this will not destroy them if they are kept frozen until used. Frank will try to bring these lemons in over the trail. but he is up against a tough proposition.

IDITAR0D CLUB
 FAIRLY BLOSSOMS

They opened up the Iditarod Club last Monday night, and with gentle push, started the new organization on what will doubtless be long period of prosperity and content.
 The newly furnished rooms were well crowded with members who had come to hear President Mark Sullivan make the dedicatory address, a stunt that he pulled off in a happy manner which tickled everybody so much that they all gave each other some punch.
 While the orchestra, consisting of Berggren, Bourret and Drake, turned out the marmony, the attendants turn ed out the stuff that cheers and the flowing bowl was there in the true acceptation of the term. Believing they could improve on the quality of the music as being furnished by the or chestra, several of the members tried to sing.-but that is another stery.
 John Duncan of the N. c. Co.,, had donated barrel of beer, and Capt. Peterson, of the Empire Commercial Co,, was there with gallons of punch, and when the sad hours of parting came, there wasn't dry throat in the place.
 The club is now equipped with pool table and plenty of good literature for those who want quiet relaxation from business cares.

TURKEY COMES HIGH
 BUT WE MUST HAVE II

Arriving in the nicotine, as it were. Loss Bernard, Roy Stevens and B. B. Smith reached Iditarod City last Wednesday with half ton of turkey and chicken. It was what might be called a tea strike, for the boys cleaned them out even though turkey meat was selling for two bucks the pound, and yellow-legged broilers cost one and half samoleuns q pound.
 They claim however, that they got all that was coming to them. They caught the birds at Nulato, just as they were being brought in from the stran- ded steamer Minneapolis. By hurrying up and mushing at high pressure they were able to beat father time to Thanksgiving day, thus pulling Idit- arod through in the II ost approved manner.
 Speaking of turkey, we'll turkey is good 10 eat on Thanksgiving and if you don't have it you feel bud about it. Der hard says that turkey is selling for roc a pound in Fairbanks, then it costs about 70c to get it to Kaltag. What show have we got for holiday turkey ? It appears that Nome is cleaned. h. dividuals who went there for the national bird mushed across the coun- try, neglecting to telegraph. They were either short on their shipments or someone had cleaned the market. for there are no turkeys in Nome.
 Besides the lot that Bernard and as sociates brought in, there are 8 few coming with the same shipment that was met at Nulato. In addition there are pork loins and other delicacies that go to make up an epicurian holiday. We may have pork chops for Christ mas if we go shy on the gobbler.
 In the city, big raffie was pulled off at Roses cigar store whereat some twenty chickens and ten turkeys were dedicated to the goddess of chance Many man paid as much as he would
 or a full-grown turkey on the hoof and never even had a chance ts shake hands with bird.
 Out at Flat they had another raff1e, and there were quite some things stir ring thereab bouts. Amt it funny how turkey will make man act?

DESERTED CAMP TELLS
 AN UNCERTAIN TALE

Far over in the little explored Wllds of Reindeer creek tkere is a deserted camp that may have be longed to one HOW dead and gone. A camp that seems to have been left without reconciliation on the part of the dweller, who either dropped everything and ran or else strayed away and was lost i'll the hills.
 Jim T'ansy came in from Rein deer creek F.iday, accompanied by two other prospectors of that re- zion, Messrs 4 brahamson and Lew IS.
 He tells about discovering this deserted camp about midway of Reir deer creek. He and his part ner, .. c, Elder, stumbled across the wrecked habitation for it ap- pears to have suffered from the floods of last spring There was tent, a stove, bedding and blankets, personal effects but no grub.

The dance given at Ansley's ball Thanksgiving eve for the beueft of the Iditarod fire department, was one of the classiest affairs ever pulled off in this city.
 The holiday spirit enthused them to high speed pressure and before the steam gave out, the hours had slipped into the early morning and were little, small things, not worth noticing.
 From financial standpoint, the dance was most successful for a large crowd attended, and the gal lant swains cheerfully dug up for the good of the cause.
