The owners of at least one of the boats says that the ship carried no muni- tions or contraband. This is hardly possible.

There is no inflated idea among Am erican military leaders concerning the importance of the battles" be- tween the Mexican factions. Even the attack upon Chihuahua and the defense which has been so much worked up in the papers is under stood to have been little more than a skirmish which well disciplined and equipped soldiers to the extent of handful could easily withstand.

LOCAL ITEMS.

In connection with the closing ot stores it may be mentioned that there are a large number of merch- ants anxious to bring about gen. eral closing day at six o'clock so that their employees (and them- selves) may not work so long hours. They say that this is in line with the general eight hour day movement which will soon be general anyway and which they believe should be introduced right away in Nome. Two or three merchants oppose the idea and think that as long as the other fellow is open they ought to be, and the other fellow says the same about them.
 Today is Thanksgiving Day. There may be a race, but trail conditions are. such as to make prospects in that line not very encouraging.

one of them noticed locket on a
costly gold chain.

tiny portrait. Every mother in town

The main object Of the men behind
this movement is to do for Oregon,

what the people of California and Colo
