LABOR SITUATION,

With the coming Of the summer season. and the drawing nigh of the time when the first fleet of steamers win be leaving Seattle and San Fran cisco for Alaska, the question of how many men will be needed to carry on Inc work planned for thc season is nppermost in our minds.
 We read that Seattle is overrun with men who are broke. and trying to secure work for the summer in Alaska That these poor unfortunates will contract for the sumcr at a lower rate fhan has been the going wage during the past two or three seasons, and this We believe is all wrong: but a hungry man with nothing In sight who can be guaranteed four hundred dol lars clear for d seasons work Is liable To break his neck trying to catch the job ahead of some other fellow equally unfortunate
 All things being equal. We believe The men who have staid with the country expended their wages trying 10 locate q pay streak upon some wild cat" OF elalm Of unknown value are a hundred Ter cent more entitled 10 the positions to be filled during the working season than the hungry horde to migrate here from Seattle and other Pacific coast cities.
 The Nugget Is not endeayoring c. Try and lead the working men. they have their official organ established for that purpose. but having their interest al heart we can offer sugges- tions from time 10 time. and they can take the same for what they are worth. We ever have in mind that the real backbone of any community. moe especially placer mining camp. is the men who delve Into the earth and help 10 extract Its frozen treas ures. as happens to be the case on Seward Peninsula.
 The Nugget believes the men who
 
 ground bright and early in the spring should be given the preference over birds of passage. who arrive with the geese in the spring and return with them in the fall. The man who stays with the country. who makes his home here. who never has the least sus- picion of a carpet bag about his per- son or belongings. they are the people to receive first calls from those having employment. and the last 10 be laid on in the fall. also entitled 10 the highest wage.
 Realizing there is much truth in the adage Tn unity there is strength" also believing that unions can accom- plish and are accomplishing much good for the working peopl. still we believe there arc exceptions to thls rule as in all others. We would hate to see all the good honest. hard working

GIBSON FAILS TO DISPROyE
MOTIVE, SAYS PROSECUTOR

GOSHEN, y. Y, Nov. 23--With the
jurymen at their homes today, and
the attorneys in the case engaged
preparing their closing arguments for
presentation to the jury on Monday,
speculation was rife regarding the
probable outcome of the Gibson case
II will reach the jury late Monday.
Gibson and his attorneys are satisfied
that they have broken down the
states case. District Attorney Rog-
ers, however. pointed out, today, that
the defense absolutely failed TO dis
prove the alleged motive. Neither
Gibson nor his wife took the stand
and just what has become Of the 81
100 admittedly missing from the Szabo
estate, is known only To- Gibson. This
money is tho motive for the crime, ac-
cording to the prosecutor.
The iron nerve that has character
lied Gibson since the first accusation
was brought against him, has disar-
peared. He complains of suffering
IRON very serious headaches and has
required medical attention for the
last two or three days.
Mrs. Gibson, too, shows the strain
Of what she has been through. Mrs.
Gibson broke down last night in Glib
son cell and had a lengthy spell ol
crying but today she seemed all right
and insisted she had no fear OF the
result.

go to the express office and hand in

system of rates is so confusing and COM

But you pay what is asked, which is
very often not the correct rate. II by
any chance the package is lost, you have
the greatest difficulty in collecting dam

with the company will be so tied up
with red tape and tiresome details that
WEAKNESS finally lends YOU to abandon
