Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, NOV. ii, 1913.

Seattle has just celebrated Alaska day with banquets and speeches ani other good things that come in bottles end cans. The liquid that came out of ne bottles and the oratory that came o'.t of the cans were both spirited and enlivening. But the best part of the has just pulled off a bigger Alaskan celebration than did Alaska herself. I'h's shows that the boasted Seattle SI ;Iit Is not SO much taken up with aafF!rs at home that it has no time to cast it's eyes about for other good things to push along.
 Scettle has had an eye on Alaska for some time and there are few people in the world. the actual Alaskan be- ing excepted. who believe more in the future of this great territory than do the people of the great metropolis of the noi invest.
 Seattle has never been asleep since t..c day that she first opened her eyes along with her own great progress she has contemplated the progress of the rich country lying to the north. The people of Seattle know more about Alaska than do the people of any other section of the United States. Desire the development of Alaska more than do any people outside of Alaska itself and this desire for the opening of this wonderfully rich land is not entirely unselfsh.
 In Alaska We have not gone far be- yond the exploration stage. We are for the most part pioneers and have not much of the weaker, but neces- sary blood of commercialism in our veins. The people who up to the pres- ent time have pushed Alasak forward on her way to the great future which is hers are of the frontier class. The hardy mushers over outland trails who are lured on by the mere love of new lands and new obstacles to overcome. AS a rule this class is not the one to reap the harvest of a new land. It is as necessary a class for the development of a virgin territory as is the com- mercial class that will follow the trails but 1t is not the class that will event ually get the rich harvest.
 It will be in the second or third generation that the land will repay those who come after the redblooded men who first ventured into the frozen north over the dangerous trails. The ones who come after will not have the hardihood of the original pioneers. but they will have the commercial in- stinct and they will have the results of the pioneers work and of the pion- eers efforts to foster the development of the land that they have spied out.
 Alasak is fin it's infancy as produc- tive country. It has not yet been
The Nome daily nugget., 1913-11-11


 scratched by the hand of development but 1t has produced a hardy race of men who have left their marks on the trails and have made it possible for the softer handed genrations which will follow to garner of the riches that the pioneer has found.
 Seattle does well to celebrate Alaska day. Seattle does well to bind herself with cords of friendship and natural understanding to the people of this northland. for Seattle will profit much in the future as she has prospercd much in the past by her connection with Alaska
 And We here in the north must not forget that all of this interest in our land on the part of the people of Se- attle is not mercenery. Not many weeks ago when we were in trouble 1t was Seattle who first came to our assistance. It was Seattle who con- tinued her donations to our relief un- til she believed we were out of our prostrate condition and did not need more help and 1t is now right in Seat tie and the state of Washington that .Alasak may look for her best friends
 Alasak has good friend in Seattle and the celebration of the day shows that the welfare of the territory will continue to be of the first importance to our friends in the Washington nc tropolis

Railroad Prospects

2 After quoting what THE HERALD
had to say week before last, the
Craig Courier observes:
1.-The prospect Of the Moffat road
turning south from Craig and rum
10 Meeker and down the White river
valley begins to take on serious pro-
portions. 1t is reported that the
slatter part Of this week the Cow
den survey party will be pulled of
.the present work westward from
Craig and put on the southern sur
svey, establishing camp In the vicin-
Elty Of the Thornburg battle ground.
IThe claim is made that by going
|south from Craig the road will tres
base segteaaly on the d. 4 r. q. tar

freight and passenger business that
would continue to go to the Rio
Grande should the Mofiat build down
Bear river. The promoters Of the
big coal mines In the vicinity of
AxiaI are also boosting for the
change Of route.

Are Much Encouraged

The Woman's Club is much pleased
with the success of the play given
last week.
The committee was assisted gener-
ously and they, rs we'll as the club as
q whole, wish to extend their graft
tude to those who strove so earnestly
to make the play one of the best ever
given here.
Special mention is due Mr.. J. A.
ReA for material donated and time
spent Gin making up the cos
tunes; to Mrs. Strehlke, for as
sisting with the music, and to Mr..
John Shields, for giving the special
colored lights for the stage.
The club has met with hearty en-
couragement and assistance on every
hand since Its Inauguration for the
purpose Of establishing 3 free read
ing room and library in Meeker, and
it expects ere long to open to the pub
lie q comfortable and attractive
room where people may read and
rest, and where good books may be
obtained free of charge. Report Of

May Be . Noted Case

Robert Reigan, plaintiff, versus R.
Oldland, garnishee, defendant, was
the title of case up before Judge
Shervin Of the county court, Monday.
Defendant moved to dismiss on ac-
count of Irregularities In the hearing
in the justice court. Motion sus-
tanned and cause dismissed.
The case is continuation of that
of Reigan VS.. Laura g. Foote, tried
in Justice Sanderson's court some
time ago, involving q claim by Rel
gan Of about 1900 against the Foote's.
When the Foote ranches were sold to
Joe Neal Reigan garnisheed money
said to be in r. Oldland's hands, and
Reigan got Judgment against Old
land, from which the latter appealed
to the county court.
Thus it appears Reigan won the
first round, and Oldland wins the
second round.
Reigan will take the case to the
court Of appeals for the third and
probable final round.
At Mondays hearing ex-Attorney
General Griffith appeared for Reigan
and District Attorney Gentry for
Oldland.

DONE FOR!
The Indiana Au.oists Dis
gusted with the Sandy
Desert Route

Just as THE HERALD anticipated,
the eastern sutoists who passed over
the lower Grand river. Utah dessft
route In the recent hike to the Coast,
will have no more Of that route.
Following are some Of the expert
ences and comments Of autoists who
went over this route:
The Ogden, Utah, Standard Of
July 3lst, among other observations,
says:
"That the Midland trail will not BE-
the first transcontinental highway
adopted for the use Of automobiles u
the opinion of Secretary J. D. Larson
Of the Publicity bureau who made
the trip by automobile from Denver
to Salt Lake city with the Indiana
autoists. In his report, ~ read TO
the directors of the bureau, the SOC
retary, states that, despite the good
work done on the road the very ns-
ture of the road conditions makes II
almost impossible for good auto
mobile highway to be constructed"
One Of Denver's most prominent
business men and an enthusiast for
the Coast-to-C,,sst highway, writes
Highway Commissioner Walbridge
rs follows:
Mr.. L. b. Walbridge, Meeker,
Colo.-You are advised that an Of
fort Is going to be made by the COM
mittee connected with the Midland
Trail Association to change the road
to Salt Lake SO that 1t will go via
Rifle, Meeker and tho Vernal coun-
try. Mr.. G. L. Newcomb, Jr., who
went west with the Indiana tourists
reports that from Grand Junction
west the road was practically impass-
able and not at all feasible. 1 also
understand that Governor Spry 10 In
favor Of the Vernal road.
A prominent Denver business man
writes to Mr.. Walbridge - follows:
Mr.. L. B. Walbridge, Meekse.
Colo.-I have just come from :
meeting at which reports were made
Of the trip taken by the Indians
autoists across this state and Utah.
u thoaght that the inlesnestten gtxsp
there might bs q Interest 20 you,
and 20 am writing this letter.
The information given was to the
effect that the route taken by the
Indiana Automobilists through Utah
via Grand Junction is absolutely i'm
possible for trans continental route,
and some other way out of this state
must be found. This leaves only the
Vernal route to be considered, and
the local branch Of the Midland
Trail Association Is now more anx-
ious than ever to have Mr.. Westgard
go over your route.
Things are coming our way. En-
courage them to come. Let's all get
together and pull for the Rifle e-Meek-
er-Vernal link In the Trans-C Conti-
mental highway.
Under the heading "Grand juno
tion May Lose the Midland Trail"
the Rifle Reveille reports:
&c. l.. Newcomb, u Denver man
who accompanied the Indiana auto
lists from Denver to Salt Lake City,
is opposing the Grand Junction
Mack Price route and favoring the
Rife -Meeker-V Vernal route.
"NewcoEIb claims that a portion
Of the road to Green River by the
way of Mack and Price is Impractical
and never can be made . permanent
