MAYOR TO PREPARE FOR DRAFT
OLD.T|MER DIES;
 HEART TROUBLE

Nelson Gordon, aged 62, one of the old time Alaskans, who has been in every camp since gold was discovered on the Yukon, died suddenly Sunday morning at the Seward General Hos pital.
 Gordon has been living for some time with the McConnells at Mile 6. He has been a sufferer from heart trouble and although his demise was not unexpected it came more quickly than had been anticipated.
 "Gordon's Landing" on the Yukon near the Klondike is said to have been named for this pioneer. His papers show that he was through the gold camps of the northwest states and in British Columbia in early days. Just before he died Gordon asked that his effects be brought to the hospital and Gus Borgen went for them in his auto only to find the owner dead on his return.

To this end the ad- jutant general was petitioned to es- tablish quarters at Juneau, provided the citizens of that place would fur nish a site for same without expense to the government, which was done. An effort was made by citizens of Valdez to block this attempt to steal our payrolls, but the movement had gained such headway that it was i'm possible to stem the strong political influence brought to bear upon the government, and orders were issued transferring the headquarters to the capital.
 While thlS IS a serious blow to the town it nowise is as fatal as at first appears, as a sub-office will be main tained in Valdez, and work on the main artery to the interior will be con- tinued the same as planned. MT. John Zugg will be in charge of the com missions affairs at this point, and Zugg will be ably assisted by Thomas Bell, who has been with the commits sion for some time and is thoroughly familiar with the work of the com mission. Many thousands of dollars will be spent on the highway from Valdez to Fairbanks, and it will be placed in first class condition for auto travel as fast as the funds can be used for this work"
