HOME RULE ALASKA WILL PASS.

Indications are favorable for the passage of our home rule bill. and Alaska will soon be eiecting it's own law makers. then the territory will start forward at a pace it will make some of the old timers dizzy on ac- count of their being accustomed to snail like movements for legislation.
 We will accept any form of home rule. provided it will prove the open ing wedge to greater things for the territory. The country needs a start and it looks as if the members of congress are willing to ease off a bit on the line that has kept the territory snubbed up close to the hitching post
 We hope the senate will get to the bill this season. pass the same and President Taft will affix his sigma ture. then we can depend upon the Give the citizens Of the territory a chance and they will correct many of the abuses, and accomplish more in one season than congress has per. formed for the Northern possession since 1t purchased the land from Russia for two and fraction cents per acre. No doubt the cheapness of the bargain has initiated against its advancement. for congress has beer cheap from the very first. it got started off too cheaply in the begin ming. Had 1t won the country through conquest. like 1t did the Philippine islands. then turned round and paid an additional twenty millions for the same. together with other costs for private interests. instead of paltry seven million two hundred thousand why this land. or its people would have millions expended upon it. where it has had thousands.
 But the home rule bill will correct many of the evils. and in a measure give the present and coming genera ton better chance than the pioneers who blazed the trails and forced the development of the territory and made Alaska what 1t is-the best and richest possession Uncle Sam owns.

THE TARIFF THE GOAT.

There is no easier way to appeal to the prejudice of the consumer than to point ont that the tariff is re- sponsible for all national ills and par ticularly the high cost of liivng.
 The trend of trustworthy evidence is that Canada, with scarcely any tarin. has experienced a notable rise in prices of commodities of late years. which. measured by the index number adopted for the purpose, is not far from the proportions shown by advances in other countries. The Canadian government began its in vestigation ot prices early in 1909 tracing the movement back fully twenty years. The Canadian inves tigation has been confined to whole sale prices. but makes two separate coplilations. one of thirty staple com modities entering largely into the cost of living. and the other embracing 230 commodities which. it is expected will tend to reflect general current industrial and trade conditions. Tak- ing the average of the levels of prices from 1890 to 1899 as a basis. 1t has been ascertained that the group of 2SC commodities have advanced PTS per cent.
 England and France are eSperi- encing the same trouble with higf prices: the trouble seems to be gen. eral. To place the blame on the tariff in the United States is merely political moonshine.

OLYMPIC GAME S.

Saturday afternoon there sailed from the city of New York. on the steamship Finland, as fine collection of athletes as ever were gotten to- gether. bound for the Olympic games to be held in Sweden
 The sturdy fellows who Will en- detvor to uphold the reputation of this country. compose the best We have, and without question of doubt they will be heard from. and as the contests are held. We can expect to hear of The Star Spanglcd Banner" floating most of the time from the tall nagpole. denoting the country where the winner of any particular event being finished, halls from.
 These athletes have our best wishes. and the worst We will wish them is q majority of points over any other country competing. and that they will maintain the most excellent standard made by their countrymen during the other four Olympic games pulled off in the different parts of the world during the past sixteen years.
 The Olympic games are To be held in Stockholm, Sweden. this summer. and arrangements have been complet- ed to make this event of even greater importance than at any previous event. and is officially known as the Fifth Olympiad."
 The events take place every four years, as per arrangements made in Paris in the year 1894. at what was called an international congress. and the first Olympic games were held at Athens in 1896. a most fitting place 10 hold the fiIst of the Olympic games since their revival. after many. many generations.
 To date four contests have been pulled off. the first at Athens. then four years later at Paris. the next at St. Louis and the fourth at London 1908. American athletes made 6 most excellent showing in all the contests and We have every reason to believe they will walk away with the ma jority of prizes in the coming con- test over in the land of the midnight sun.
 We understand a new stadium has been erected at an expense of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. large enough 10 seat twenty-five thousand people. Many Americans are making the journey to Stockholm. for that country offers many scenic beauties to the traveller. and great in- ducements have been offered in the way of excursions. Thousands of strangers will visit the country this summer. but the greatest attraction the land will have for Americans. will be to see its athletes come in ahead of the best that other nations

Great interest in the Chicago con- vention is being taken even here in Nome, people can hardly wait for the paper to go to press. they run down to the Nugget office every few hours to get the latest, knowing this is Headquarters for authentic news here in the North.

Our patrons are urged to act

any necessary movement of freight.
Cars are not too plenty at present but
week by week for some months the
demand for them will grow. and 1t is
the part of prudence to order reason

Of the winter coal now and to not
hold back wheat and oats shipments
waiting better market for same.
There viii be ample opportunity to
hold them a few weeks from now,
when the cotton movement is press
ing, and when one of the largest all
round crops the country has ever rails

The whole problem is more than
one. of cars and engines. It involves
even more largely the oyer.crowding
Of division point and terminal facili.

Of the heavy yalume Of traffic between
the various railways; the capacity of

avoid the congestion which is coming.

Because il was a mOOnlit summer
evening and they We're young. happy
and courageous. they bore the infiic-
ton of Rilly's music without throwing
things at him. They liked Billy so
much that even his joyous rendition
of "Juanita" in sweet but hardly ac-
curate tenor voice TO the twang OF
his guitar Was received with patience.
albeit neither man nor girl on the
wide. cushionstrewn veranda ceased
talking or laughing or flirting. They
knew Silly would net expect that even
from guests.
Billy looked out on the little lake
to a boat that drifted in the white
path made by the moon on the water,
and wondered what James STAFFORD
was saying to Stella. The wonder
made him so wretched that he began
an aSonizing improvisation on the

guitar strings a bit fiat. Then he no.
ticed that Norma Main had come near

knees.

child, needed comfort. too. BY some

her behavior worse.
