SAWTooTH POWER PLANT PROJECT DELAYED BY
 HIGH COSTS

High costs of equipment. scarcity of materials and other deterrents, have resulted in decision by the pres ent packers of the Sawtooth power plant project inaugurated by the late Andrew J. Stone. to wait more fav- orable conditions before attempting to go ahead with the scheme, according to parties arriving from the Outside.
 There is said to be no intention to abandon the project but present in- ordinate costs would entail an ex- penditure far beyond normal and the company has wisely decided to suspend activities until the situation improves. The failure of the company to proceed is decidedly disappointing to all who realize the immense development pos abilities that are certain to appear with the establishment of a source Of cheap power, such as the projected hydroelectric plant would represent. It is clear. however. that the company would not be displaying good business judgment to proceed when machinery and other construction costs. including transportation, are several hundred per cent higher than ever before known.

PREFERS ARCTIC TO
 SOUTHERN ISLES

R. H. Gibbs. late government dig nitary in the far off Philippines and also the artistic genius who presided over the picture making department of the Lmen Studio. came back on the Victoria after leaving Nome last fall with the avowed intention to hie him back to the delights of the aun l. Southern Isles from whence. by dev. ious routes he came to Nome last year. Furthermore he brought back with him blu,hing bride from the States. And the wags who recall what Gibbs said last fall about the contrast between Nome and the glorious trop: cal isles are smiling broadly. And Gibbs looks rather thoughtful when he admits that there is something to this Lure of the North" after all. Mir Gibbs will resume his former position with Lomen Brothers.

ALASKA MINES co TO
 OPERATE FLAT OREocE

Capt. L.. R. Rockwell, manager of the Alaska Mines Corporation, return ed on the Victoria and Is already at work on the company's program of operations.
 Capt. Rockwell says the major por- tion of the company activities will be directed to operating the Flat Creek dredge. The Bourbon dredge owned by the company will not be operated this year for various reasons. chief of which is the boats limited digging capacity. The company still owns much valuable unworked ground on Bourbon Creek. but considers that 1t can be worked to far greater advantage by q dredge of larger capacity than the one now on the ground. The Flat dredge was given an overhauling un- der the direction of winter manager Morte Powell during the Spring and will be in excellent shape when dig ging commences. The big electric power plant on Bourbon Creek which supplies power to the company boats has also been placed in fine condition through various repairs and alterations including a new cement floor.

 MANY OLD TIMERS

A major portion of the victoris passengers were well known residents and former reddents of tho city. Among the latter class were a consid- erable number who have not visited Nome in years. A marked feature of the list was tho comparatively small number of female passengers. scarcely three dozen of the fair sex being in- cluded in the nearly five hundred per- sons carried. This ii probably &C., counted for to some extent by the In creased fares, first class paseage now being held at SIPS per trip.
 Among the well known oldtimers returning have been noted the follow ing: Jafet Lindeberg. head of the Pioneer Mining Co; J. J. Cole of tho N and M Bank; A. W. Kah of the same institution; Ira D.

Suf1ce to say that all the old "stand by's" are back. All are looking hale and hearty and almost without exception are high iy optimistic regarding Nome's out look. The story they bear from the big Outside Is to the effect that the outlook for Alaska development was never better than at present. The government Is taking very lively in. terest in the territory and will vc-y probably soon inaugurate construc- tive program aimed at relieving the territory of It's many present dimcpl- ties.

 He contemplates resumine opera tions at once and confidently expects to bring in oil during the coming season with the aid of Il new drilling plant he is shipping in on one of the freight boats. X considerable quanti- ty of drilling material was also brought in on the Victoria.
 During the past winter Mir. Keene visited the renowned Texas oil fields in connection with his enterprise and is more than ever confident that oil will be located in this locality. The progress of his work will undoubtedly be watched with sharp interest this year. as many local citizens are con- vinced that his findings in the last year or two justify the view that an oil strike is not by any means improb- able. \ considerable number of local citizens demonstrated their faith in the prospect last winter by subscribing for stock in his company.
