 The Snake river bridge has been closed for the winter by the city coun- cil. and the river is now in good con d!tion for taking care of the traffic. but there should have been no hurry in slackingup the bridge cables for the history of Nome is that every fall there i1 period of high water sometime during the month of December when the ice is carried high up on the beach, a,:1 the ice in the river raises and for q certsin distance from it's mouth way up around Belmont Point 1t Is ont of the question to cross the same.
 The council. through it's street con mittee is using every precaution to preserve the structure and this is the right view for should anything happen to the bridge there is q serious aues- lion about it ever being replaced with lhe present income of the city.
 
 The football season can now be said to be over and the game between West Point and the Navy team on Saturday ' last brought it to a close with a fine game
 The scores run up by the big Eastern colleges this year were very small. and with Harvard and Yale playing a game ot nothing to nothing. then the Army and Navy playing what should be a nothing to nothing game, for the score os three to nothing represent just about the same for three points is a goal from the field. and may have been rn a fluke or penalty for outside play pr some other violation of the rules of Ire game.
 Some how or other We wanted to see the army win. for We come in contact with that branch of the countrys' de- fense. and are with them heart and hand. on the other hand not knowing the navy branch of the government and having few if any of its representative a football game by the army any day. Eut this is an off year for favorites. We wanted Jeff to win. We wanted Srotty to win. We wanted to find Birch. We wanted to see Harvard win and many of us would have liked tp read about the army defeating tn. navy.
 There k always the exception which g"es to prove the rule. and in one in- stance the people had the pleasure of seeing their favorite come in under the wire way ahead and that was in the election of the Hon. James wickersham our delegate to congress.

 It is just as well to remember that no ambition k worthy which can only be fulfilled at the expense of other peoples happiness. IL Is true that men who have no other object in life than the mere making of money often find 1t necessary to trample other people down in order to upbuild their own fortunes But contrast the record such men make in history to those who labor for the good of their fellow men. and in leaving this world hand down in the coin of the realm just about what they had when they entered it.
 Who wouldn't have the ever living monument of Lincoln than the richest man who ever lived? And there wasn't any selfishness in his character. and his mission was to help his fellow men. and nothing more.
