 It is said that no merchant in Nome is making money. That the best any of them are doing is mak- ing wages, and some of them are making poor wages at that.

Now, if that is the case, it is indeed a sorry business. And likely enough there is more truth than poetry in the whole story. It indicates that there IS a leak somewhere and wherever that leak is, the sooner it is elimi- mated for the camp and the bus inessmen themselves the better.
 The Industrial Worker speaks mainly for the workers. This paper is not operated for the sake of pro fits, but operated because it is the organ of a union has made in the past and in the present decided sacrifices to maintain itself and the paper.
 Naturally, the union and it's pa per. is just as much interested in Keeping up the camp and the labor oreanization within the camp as any person who is profitting by the industrial activities which prevail! here. The Union exists to better the workers employed in the indus tries and it is to be deplored if eco homie conditions force many Of the wealth producers of this camp out side, although it is frank to say that Tn view of present time condi- tions here and on the outside, no workingman is going to lose much by the change.

gets 3 or every time he reaches
out for them. He has been improv-
