Miles who is to have charge O.
 the Alaska Mines Corporations ope
 rations in this camp, taking ovel
 the former Powell properties is ex
 pected to reach Nome near the lat ter end of the week. He left Cor. dova on March 16 and should ar.
 rive here soon. Another mushe1
 who is expected to arrive soon, prob
 ably early next week, is Harry
 Bloomfield who is returning with
 freight and one passenger.
 All kinds of political reports are
 in the air. The latest is that a wire
 was received from National Con-
 mitteeman Donahue that they had
 endorsed Philip Corrigan for the position of U. S. Marshal and that it was almost a cinch that he would receive it if any one is appointed. The local endorsement of Kjegstead arrived too late and Corrigan had already received the endorsement, following the original local endorse ment of Corrigan, Daily and Kjeg- stead. Another very interesting matter is the fight that is being waged against Governor Strong for re-appointment. It is notorious that has developed against the Governor owing to the stand he took in the matter of the issu- ance of a certificate to Sulzer and practically compelling the Court 70 mandamus the board. Nevertheless the local committee is understood to be quite strong for Governor Strong and private advices indicat. that his appointment is almost as- sured. They certainly might go con- further and fare consider ably worse also. Tn this connection yesterday the Worker received the following news dispatch from the Juneau Empire.
 JUNEAU, April 9.-A state ment is placed at the head of the editorial columns of the Daily Elm pire this afternoon wherein John Troy announced that he has never been candidate for any appointive pr elective office in the Territory. He would not accept the Governor ship unless handed him on a silver platter which is highly improbable. His sole ambition is to make his paper a great success"
 As far as the Empire is concerned IS a newpspaper it is so far ahead of anything in the Territory that 1t is difficult to see how MT. Troy still thinks his ambition fails ot 'ealization. He surely has made If it great success in every way.

Yesterday morning Nome arose earlier than usual, the occasion be- ing the start of the All Alaska Sweepstakes race, four teams tow ing the mark to be speeded on their way by Queen Jennie and her court The morning broke calm and sunny after Boreas had puffed himself ex- hausted during the night and early morning and although it was some what cold, the air was pleasant and bracing. The street took on an unusually busting appearance with many of the population long gather ed at Barrack Square before the start, while camera men, movie and snapshotters also sought places ot vantage to take the teams. A sled drawn by the High School students brought the queen to her stand and with the stentorian aid of Chief Herald Mcclure an excellent start was effected. The teams all seemed eager for the race and all appeared to be in the pink of condition. They started at the appointed hour with promptness, Delzene leaving at nine o'clock and Seppala, Kjegstead and Anderson following in the order named.
 Time as follows,
 Delzene. Ft. Davis SIS, Cape Nome 1919, Safety HOO, Solomon 12.42,

 There is no phone at Timber and up to eleven o'clock last night no reports of arrival at Council were recorded. A severe storm, with drift and cold. was raging at Coun- oil. The teams probably anchored for the storm

Moran Soliloquises; The Why Of Cooks Peak

YOU think a doctor thinks only
Of getting a fee and putting it to
L his own bank account. you are
mistaken. Fl Paso doctors are going
TO collect fees for other doctors.
Doctors OF Fl Paso who remain at
home will do their bis BY attend
ing patients Of doctors who go to
war and retaining only half the fees
collected. The other half viii be de-
posted TO the account OF the doctor
who attended the patient before going
to war.
At a recent meeting OF the El PasO
County Medical society, the following
resolution was adopted covering the
subject
First. We believe It TO be the pa
triotic duty Of each physician at home
10 turn over one-half the proceeds Of
all money collected from patients
known 10 be patrons Of doctors who
are absent on account Of military
duty. Such money should be deposited
in the bank to the credit Of the absent
physician as collected.
Second, that said patients be re-
ferred back 10 their former physician
upon his return.
Third. we suggest that the public
be informed Of this arrangement and
that in case ones family physician
has been called TO military duty he
should be reemployed upon his re-
turn, because Of former faithful ser
vice as wei as proof OF appreciation
Of his patriotic duty TO his country"

they win all pay their poll taxes"

the American expedition starts going
