is to be devoted to the elimination of the so-called harmless fakes" which,
 because of their frequency, have done
 much to destroy confidence in news
 papers and to detract from their in fluence.
 The World is going back to the
 ideals from which the best news
 papers of the country have never de
 parted notwithstanding the temporary success which has attended the vel low newspapers, with which truth is a
 minor consideration, and sensational and readable story the sole consider
 atiOn in the presentation of news"
 Accuracy is now, and it always has been and always must be, the stand ard at which every decent newspaper
 of the country aims. It is a standard impossible of full realization. Mistakes and inaccuracies are possible in every story penned by human hands and bas-
 ed upon the statements and testimony of human witnesses. A newspaper is dependent upon it's reporters and it's correspondents and suffers for their faults when they make mistakes, or when-the rare eXception-they per petrate deliberate fakes. None per petrates more than one such fake at the expense of reputable newspaper, however There is absolutely no place in journalism for the deliberate faker. Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

NOME FACES HARDEST
 PART OF TASK


 Nome is now going to face the hard est part of her trial. There isn't any excitement now to stimulate the flag ging energies. There isn't any more rush and hurry to keep the mind from what the aftermath of the storm means. The lo, ,sers know approx imately what they have lost and what resources they can command to begin over with. To a good many it is a mighty serious problem, this starting anew It is a problem the solution of which will take lot of grit and gump- tiOn and stay-with-itnesS on the part of the men and women who have felt the terrible blow. But there is no fear about what the people of Nome will do. If they were not just the sort of people with the grit and dOggedness and push to stay by it and win in spite of this jolt they would never have been in Nome in the first place. There may be a few, a very few We predict, who will throw up the sponge and quit. There may be some who through force of circumstances over which they have no control may have to quit But we believe that they will be very few This isn't the time to quit, it isn't the time to sit down and cry over what has happened, and fortunately the peO- pie of Nome are not the kind that do sit down and cry. Our merchants are already preparing to go back into busi- ness. If the old stores are fit to Oc- cupy they will be fitted up again and the old stocks will be moved in. If the original stores are too badly gut ted we will find the old stocks in new stores and business going on. Now is the time to help the enterprise of the merchant with sand enough to start Over-NOme Nugget.

ACCURACY NOW

The reaction against yellow journal ism, with it's sensations and it's fakes, is assuming considerable proportions. The New York World, the pioneer in yellow journalism, but which has steadily sought to improve it's stand ing and it's reputation since it achiev- ed it's original success through the startling methods of which it was the originator, is now taking advanced ground toward the entire elimination from it's news columns of everything which smacks of the flake" or which lacks in accurate presentation of the facts.
 It has established what it calls the Bureau of Accuracy and Fair Play, the purpose of which is to promote ac- curacy and fair play, to stamp out fakes and fakers." Special attention

 WASKEY IS LOSER

NOME, Oct. 11-There seems to be something almost wierd in the luck of Frank Waskey and if he were a man of less grit the continued blows of fate would knock him out
 A recent letter received from Wask- ey to D. M Taylor of Nome states that R. J. Negus lost a boat 60 miles below the mouth of the Yukon in the last great storm in which was all of the stock that Waskey had recently purchased from outside for trading purposes.
 Negus was eighteen hours in the water and his hands and feet were badly frozen.
 With his usual pluck Waskey states that he will get another stock and start all Over-Nome Nugget.
