\ COMING LAND FOR TOURISTS

The regeon in which Nome is sit uated offers many attractions to tour ists and, therefore, the number of that class of visitors increases year by year, and would probable be very much greater if the district received the ad- vertising it deserved to show what it has to offer in this respect.
 Tourists to Alaska usually leave Seattle for the southeast by the inside passage which is regarded as one of the most beautiful sea trips in any part of the world From Skagway is a railroad trip of little more than 100 miles over the famous White Pass, which affords a real thrill, with the glorious mountain peaks sorrounding one at the summit when the coach in which he is riding stands more than 2.O0O feet above the sea This railroad brings one to the head of navigation on the Yukon river at WhitehOrse and from that place to St. AIicheal. a dis tance of more than 1000 miles, one

travels in fine steamboats down the great stream seeing the world famous Klondyke and Dawson city enroute as well as countless other scenes of real interest and beauty
 At St. Michael one crosses by steam ship to Nome, distance of less than 100 miles, and has reached place where a new life, a new civilization. is encountered.
 Nome and it's environs from the min ing point of view are so well known that it is unnecessary to dwell upon them. but here in the land of the Eskimos, Arctic atmosphere, walrus, seal, polar bear and all the extraordi- nary and picturesque facts with which those words are associated a tourist can draw from a wonderful store of strange things Nome is the gateway to the vast regions of the Arctic and as such it is the beginning of the life which is new and interesting enough to be the delight of those who are

constantly seeking change.
 In no part of the world is better hunting or fishing furnished than by the Boring sea, the Arctic ocean, and the plains and rivers and lakes around this city and the day will come when the facts shall have been advertised all over the world and when tourists will awaken to the truth that on their own continent they have opportunities for travel and sport which excel, those af- forded by any other country on earth.
 During the summer of 1913 the excursionists travelled under the aus pices of the Alaska Bureau of the Seat tie Chamber of Commerce followed the course outlined here and on their return to the States helped to spread the news of the interesting life seen by them. They were accompanied by several prominent newspaper and magazine men who represented the Hearst pa e pers. Leslies Weekly, the Atlanta Con stitution and other publications with

 As Nome is the distributing point for oyer 22, ,OOO square miles of territory the necessity of large and comprehen- sive stocks of goods is apparent
 Probably no city in the world of equal size can furnish such diverse assort- ment of goods as is represented in the stocks of local houses.
 There is an excellent water system during the summer months, water be- ing obtained from the Moonlight Spring, some few miles from the city.
 There are also thoroughly efficient fire and police departments and public school, having an average at tendance of oyer 200 of which the cost of maintenance is about $15.ooo an nually
 The Nome school is recognized by the Outside universities and graduates are received on the same terms as those of Outside schools.
 There is also a Catholic school hay ing a considerable attendance.
 Nome has three practicing physi clans. Drs. Mustard Chace and Nen- man, who represent the highest ad- vancement of medical science.
 Two dentists. Drs Fromm and Bayne. look after the teeth of the community, and their work is second to none.
 There is an excellently conducted and equipped hospital under the direction of the Sisters of Charity.
 There are two churches, Catholic and Federated. the later being attended by the followers of various denominations.
 The population as given by the last government census approXimates 2,G00.

The city of Nome is situated on Ser ing sea, about midway of the southern shore line of Seward Peninsula. The town derives its name from the pro mntory some few miles to the east known as Cape Nome and, in a popular sense, the name has been given to the whole territory.
 Nome is in every respect a modern up-to- date city having most of the conveniences, and is also the second city in Alaska.
 Previous to the great storm of 1913 the assessed valuation of the property of Nome was $1.799.322.
 The present yearly assessment places the valuation at $1,6s5,597, a decrease in value which represents approximate ly the loss occasioned by the storm.
 The affairs of the city are conducted by city government. composed of a mayor and six counclmen and there are also four paid officials in charge of various departments.
 The present city council is as re- presentative as could we'll be chosen. being composed of business, mining and professional men.
 The present mayor is Geo. B. Grigsby and the members of the council are II. s. Burgh. IT. IT. Moller. P. F. Murphy. Al Orland. Wm. Webb and F. NJ. Kiesele.
