REINDEER COMPANY AT NOME HAS
 BEEN ORGANIZED

Carl Lomen returned to Nome re- gently from the East where he spent the winter in the interest of the rein deer industry of Alaska, and reports very favorable results from his ex- tended visit to New York and other i eastern cities. MT. Lomen's trip says the Nome Nugget, will serve to boost the reindeer industry in the states to tue highest degree as we'll as to ac- quaint the outside public with lots of true facts concerning Alaska.
 MT. Lomen reports than an organl- zation has been formed in New York known as the Lomen Reindeer & Trad ing Company Among the eastern di- rectors are: H. B. Walmsley, we'll known eastern attorney who was for merly associated with Joseph Choate, an attorney for the Dupont Powder Works; Edwin J. Clapp, financial edi- tor of the New York American, and Archibald B. Roosevelt, who needs no introduction to the public.
 MT. Lomen states that his proposi- tion at first met with many obstacles which took both time and patients to overcome. Owing to the fact that many people on the outside had no idea what the domesticated reindeer was. every detail had to be gone over carefully. Some of the people ap- preached on the subject had no idea that the reindeer could be domestf- cated. They were under the impress sion that during the winter months herd of reindeer came down from the hills and a number were shot down by employees of the reindeer industry

and the meat shipped outside. When they were informed of the reindeer being kept together in herds the year round they were immediately inter- ested and the result that MT. Lomen obtained one proof of this fact.
 MT. Lomen states that reindeer meat is being served at all the leading cafes and restaurants in New York. The Ritz Carlton, the Waldorf-Astorla and many other of such prominence serve the reindeer meat now. An over flow of shipment of reindeer meat was shipped out on the steamer Victoria this Spring, this being the remainder of a shipment that could not be sent out last fall. The company expects to have six thousand. reindeer ready for shipment to Outside markets between now and the first of January, MT. Lo- men said. "This is known industry, the pioneer work of introducing the reindeer meat into the States is over; the future of the industry is assured" He also states that he has been able to line up meat sale contracts on the Outside All Eastern shipments will be made by the Panama Canal to New York, which is the largest market in the States for the product. The plac- ing of reindeer on the market in the States is not in competition with oth-

Craze in France

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 26.-
Capt. Edward Mcclure Peters of
Brooklyn, sailed today on the
French liner Chicago to join his
wife in Toul, France, where they
will spend their remaining days
near the grave of their only son.
The son was an American SOL
dier, Capt. Edward Mcclure Peters,
jr. comma nder of a First DiVls-
ion Machine Gun Company. While
the First Division was getting It's
baptism of fire along the new
American front which in those
days skirted Toui, Nancy and Bac-
carat, he was killed, in March,
1918.
They buried him in the American
cemetery at Thiacourt, only few
kilometers from Toul, the favorite
''blighty" of the 1st Division dough-
boy.
Young Capt. Peters mother jour
neyed TO France recently to visit
his grave. When il came time to
return she could not. Nor could she
and her husband be persuaded to
have his body removed from where
he had fallen, to a new burial place
across the sea, in their boys native
land.
So they decided to go and live near
his grave, and gave up their Brook
lyn home. They hope, said the elder
Capt. Peters, to put fresh flowers on
the grave each day Of their lives,
henceforth.

ASK FOR new TEST
OF. ALIEN LAND LAWS
Californian Insists on Right to
|. Make Crop Contract With
japanese.

An effort to reopen one phase of
the alien land law cases, recently
decided by the Supreme Court. was
embodied in a motion for a rehearing
submitted today by j. J. O'Brien and
]. Inouye.
AS the owner of a farm in Santa
Clara county. Calf, OBrien sought
to enter into a cropping contract with
Inouye, under which the latter would
work on the farm and receive as his
pay part Of the crops.
The Supreme Court decided that
they had no right under the Consti-
tuition or the treaty with Japan to
enter into such q contract. and that
the contract was in violation of the
alien land laws Of the state.
In asking the court to review its
decision, O'Brien and Inouye de-
clared the. courts of California had
held that the proposed contract was
not in viola don of the state alien
land laws and insisted that the de-
cision Of the state supreme court was
controlling and could not be set
aside. The United States Supreme
Court had. they contended, exceeded
it's authority In their case when it
passed upon the constitutionaiity Of
the law.

SEATTLE, Wash, December 26-
After a Christmas eve and Christmas
day in which the Pacific coast, in the
vicinity of British Columbia and Wash
ington was dashed by furious gales,
causing a death toll of five and the loss
of two ships and temporarily disab bling
two others, the storm-swept section was
recovering today. with weather condi-
tions improving.
The storm centered about Gray's
harbor, where the wind reached a
velocity OF eighty miles an hour. At
Port Angeles. on the south side of the
Strait OF Juan de Fuca. and at Tacoma
and Seattle the wind ranged from forty
five to sixty miles an hour, breaking
government weather bureau records in
some instances.
The fatalities as result OF the
storm included four members of the
Canadian tug Tyee, which was wreck
ed on the rocks at Pedder bay, near
Victoria, B. c., and Gus Quarnstrom of
Aberdeen, Wash, who was killed by
current from a fallen electric pow er
wire.
Cities in Darkness
In many cities the gales smashed
windows, tore down power lines,
throwing entire communities into
darkness on Christmas eve, unroofed
buildings, Interrupted telephone and
railway communication and drove
many small boats in exposed parts
or ships upon the rocks, where they
sank.
The steamer Dawn pounded to
pieces at her dock at Lake Washing
ton here.
The steamship Author. with a crew
of forty-five men, was making slow
progress, according to latest reports
received here. after being disabled by
heavy seas Monday night, and escap-
