 A NOME PIONEER

Nome promises to attain consider able importance as a fishing center, according to H. A. Ring, Nome pioneer, who is at the Arlington Ho tel
 'In the past they have caught fish at Nome only for their own use, said Ring. Last Fall they began putting down salmon and herring for export. The fishing business is likely to become an important indus try there."
 Mining will be Nome's trump, he said, for it is a different kind of mining from that of the early days, when any man with pick and shov el was as good as any other.
 "It is now business for large companies with plenty of capital" he said "T'hile there is lots of gold at Nome, it is not so that poor man can mine it profitably.
 But Nome's chances of attaininf her early-day prominence are not past by any means. There is always the possibility Of Dig strike A large territory not far from Nome has never been prospected. Nome may again come into her own"
 Ring has been a resident of Nome for twenty years. He has seen il grow from a place of 900 to 20,G00 and he has seen it dwindle. He says that he is held by the lure of the North and that he has no intention of leaving it TOW.
