MANY TAKING ADVANTAGE OF
 LOW RATES.

There is positively no pleasure or economy in using old stale merchan- disc. More especially is this true with reference to meats. and Nome has been very fortunate for the past four years. in as much as Alaska's best friend has never been compelled to carry over meats from one season to another. This year there has been more meats shipped than usual in proportion to the demand and rather than carry any stock over another season The Pacihc Cold Storage Company are selling all meats. both wholesale and retail at outside prices. The special sale on fine. fresh Mis- souri turkeys at 25 and 30 cents per pound. continues until Tuesday night
 There are very few Nomeites but will enjoy feast of this royal bird for their Christmas dinner. Adv.

SENATOR KERN's GREAT PEN

K
SION SPEECH.
United States Senator Kern, who
was Mr.. Bryan's running mate in
{ 1908. is generally credited with hay
ing made the best speech in favor OF
the new dollar a day pension bill.
Here are a few sample paragraphs:
Measured by its dealings with 9TH
er creditors" said Senator Kern,
.:this government has failed to carry
out the plain provisions Of its con-
tract with the soldiers Of the civil
war. The government promised to
pay the soldiers SIG month, in dol
lars, They were actually paid in
currency so deprecated in value as
70 be worth less than so cents on the
dollar. In recent campaign we
heard much about so cent dollars,
and the infamy of a government that
would discharge a contract obligation
calling for the payment Of dollars
with money worth only so cents on
the dollar. Yet today the same
financiers, who so earnestly and Wig
orously shouted for national honor
in 1896, are denouncing as a raid on
the treasury a proposal to pay the
cid soldiers who saved their country
for them the pittance of dollar a
day, that they may have food ana
shelter in their old age, and that
some measure of justice be done
them because in those dreadful days
Of civil war they we're paid dollars
