Those of Our citizens who pos
sess an active interest in the wei
fare OF Nome and the Seward
peninsula section should not fail
TO attend the Booster day" meet
ing TO be held tomorrow afternoon
under the auspices OF the Nome
chamber of commerce. Also, it
may not be out Of order TO suggest
that all others should attend,
even though they have no parti-
cular interest in the welfare of the
community. 1t will not do them
any harm and they might be per-
suaded to change their views after
listening TO the remarks of the
speakers. The larger percentage
of the people of Nome have prac-
tically no knowledge of the true
conditions or the future possibili-
ties of this section of the Alaska
territory and are, consequently,
laboring under a variety of erron-
eouS beliefs, chief among which
is the one that he country pos
sesses no potentialities and is,
therefore, doomed to certain de-
cadence and final desertion. 1t is
safe to say that three fourths Of
the people of Nome share this
opinion. Owing to the absence
Of definite information concern
ing the actual resources and pos
sibilities, the great majority be.

ed on every side and their de-
velopment on a renumeratlve
basis is the problem to which the
chamber of commerce is now de-
voting itself. Earnestly, and with
painstaking labor the men COM
posing that body are trying to
assist the growth and prosperity
OF the community and the terri
tory by every means in their pow
er. They are devoting their time
and also their money to the task
and are assuredly proving their
faith in future of the country by
every means of expression posi-
bic. Further, be it said, their eff
forts are not for themselves alone
but for very one in the district.
II their labors result in the sue
cess that is anticipated, the re-
ward thereof will accrue to one
and all. They are going aheat
i'll manner that betokens faith
and sincerity and an earnest de-
sire to forward the best interest
Of the town and territory. Such
efforts should not 60 unrecogniz-
ed by those who will ultimately
share in what o success they
may achieve.
We therefore urge upon every
citizen of Nome to attend the
meeting and hear the truth con-
corning the possibilities for de-
velopment OF the section which
we live. As we said before it
will do no one harm and may re-
suit in some being converted to
the belief that there is much TO be
gained if we will simply lay aside
false views and lend our assist
ance to those who are pointing
the way to better things.

cause OF an absence of productive
resources Sufficient to warrant n
OF white occupancy.
That belief OF this nature is in
error will not be disputed by those
who will take the time to satisfy
themselves of the true conditions.
Nome is indeed decadent but it is
far from being in the hopeless
condition that many believe. The
"a, j, of BONANZA gold strikes are
admittedly a thing of the past
though it is by no means deter
mined that strikes of fabulous
richness will not yet be made in
the hundreds of square miles of
territory still unprospected. The
recent strikes on Dexter creek are
proof that the possibilities OF even
those sections which have been
prospected for years have not as
yet been fully determined. Il may
also be said that there are thou
sands of acres of tundra and hill
side areas on which no effort has
been spent in determining the
possible values contained. Out
side of a few easily accessible spots
there has been little or no devel-
opment and it will not be denied
by those who are fully aware of
the facts that practically nothing
s known as 10 the possibilities
Of three fifths of the country.
Neither will it be gainsaid BY
those who know, that there are
wonderful possibilities for future
development in the vast areas of
so-called low grade" deposits,
the value of which has long been
demonstrated. Time and a change
Of methods are admittedly requir-
cd to place them in a productive
state but that such change will
be effected is hardly to be doubt
ed. Cheaper transportation is the
great desideratum in the develop
INIT OF this portion of the gold
fields and once furnished will un-
questionably result in an aston
ishing increase in the mineral
yield. In addition to the immense
areas of alluvial deposits, Seward
PENINSULA possessions remarkable
possibilities in the iron and cop
per lodes scattered in profusion
over the several districts. The
tin mines of the oYrk section are
alone an asset of inestiinable value
and will one day prove a source
q immense revenue to the terri
tory and its people. Also there
are numerous other mineral forms
OF demonstrated value that remain
to be exploited. Aside from the
possibilities OF mineral produc-
ton there are most alluring fields
for renumerative exploitation in
the immense fish resources of the
waters adjacent to our coasts and
in the reindeer industry, which
will in time become one of the
greatest productive resources of
Alaska. Unlimited possibilities
Of wealth production are present
