 Bert Whittard before he went out side sold the building occupied by the Alaska Printing Go. to that firm, the consideration being $382. The assessed valuation of the property is thirty-six hundred dollars. It is a two storey building, in good shape with a 36 it. frontage. At that allowing for the depreciation in that. particular section of the town, it still bargain: under One-ninth of the assessed valuation, that is going some, and will be hard one for the assessor to get over in that section. AS may be observed the business trend for some reason is up towards the section between Lane and Hunter Way, Newspaper Row., so to say, and there is not at the present time an empty building in the entire block.
 Oscar Carlson and Jensen took d big outfit to Gold Bottom where they will remain about two months doing development work on the quartz property in that section. AL though much has not been said about it, during the summer past, a number of visitors made inquiries for quartz. They were rather re- ticent when approached. but served to excite the suspicion of the quartz men locally who show no disposition to slough off their ground for any old thing as may have been hoped. There has been in some quarters a general tendency to belittle all Nome quartz properties, that is too concerted not to have been part of a we'll thought out plan by those re- sponsible for it. It will repay quartz prospectors and miners to hang on and bide their time, says one who must be regarded as an authority on the matter.
