LOCAL NEWS
SEWARD PENINSULA RAILROAD
 DEAL NOT YET CONCLUDED

Vague rumors still persist in floating in the upper strata of Nome air currents. The one rumor that continually comes 10 life is that the Territory has acquired the Seward Peninsula Railway. Both Attorney o. D. Cochran, the Nome legal rep resentative of the Pioneer Mining and Ditch Company, and the Ham mon Consolidated Gold Fields repre- sentative, the people above all who will be informed when the deal is actually consumated, deny that final steps have been taken whereby the road has been acquired by the Terri tory. As soon as both parties to the transaction become of one mind and the deal is concluded the Rug get will obtain the information and so notify the public. In the mean time reports to the contrary are without foundation. It is the hope of every resident of Seward Penin- sula that this road be obtained by the Territory for the benefit of the public and Mir. Cochran states that he believes the deal will be shortly consumated.

BIOLOGICAL SURVEY BOAT SCH. HAZEL ON TOUR . OF INSPECTION

The gas schooner Hazel. Biologi- cal Survey boat. arrived in Nome Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock. via. Irnalakleet and St. Michael. On board were Mir. Palmer. Mir. Fosling. Hans Larson a native boy and en- gineer Paul Ivanoff.
 The Hazel has been on a tour of inspection of the reindeer herds and grazing grounds of Seward Penin- sula and Nunivak Island.
 Bethel and the Kuskokwim herds were visited and the Survey found that the heavy rains had caused the prevalence Of hoof disease that gave the animals much trouble. but is soon remedied as the dry weather comes. Deer in the Kuskokwim country are much larger than those found near Nome. due to better and more favorable grazing grounds.
 In the Good News Bay district the average deer measures six feet in length and weSh from s5e to 2ss pounds, a weight unusual for Alaska deer. these deer also have the bene- fit of excellent grazing grounds and demonstrate the value of proper feeding and attention. The Nome deer are of the average length of 5 feet and weight of 15o pounds.
 The markets for the deer herds visited is only of local nature, but it is hoped that the opening of the Alaska Railroad will create a de- mand and afford an opportunity to establish foreign market.
 At Shaktulik the natives have constructed model corral. the best in the country barring none. It is constructed with logs and has poe kets or pens for issolation of deer for branding and other purposes. The carral was built by the Shaktu- lik Reindeer Company. native CO., operative venture.
 NuulFdh -lSIdHu was NlsiNtu anu the herds of the Lomen & Company inspected. Here the animals were fund to be in perfect condition. One year old steers show more de- Tefopment than those of three years in other districts. The Survey finds that on this island grows a black reindeer moss that never be- fore has been discovered in Alaska. it being plant that was deemed to be found only in Europe. 50 per cent of the vegetation on the island
 in reindeer moss, thus affording ideal grazing grounds for the herds. TIT natives, brought from other parts of Alaska, live on the island and report a most satisfactory fur catch. Some men having caught as high as 40 white foxes while the least caught by any one person was IS.
 While at Good News Bay Paul Ivanoff visited Joe Jean, who is operating a trading store and also is engaged in placer mining. MT. Jean has uncovered some valuable gold bearing gravel and has employ ed five men to assist in developing the property.
 The Hazel will proceed to Kotze- but as soon as the present storm abates and Alfred Lomen will ac- company the party on tour of i'm spection of the Lomen & Company herds north. On the return of the Hazel she will go to Unalakleet and then return to Nome and go into winter quarters.
 It is the intention of the Biologi- cal Survey to remove the Unalakleet experiment station to Nome and con duct series of experiments here, The station will be constructed near the Wild Goose barn and ten deer will be retained for the experiment tai work.
