The attention of our readers is directed to the article, appearing elsewhere in these columns, anent the building used at present as a school house for the native child ren of this prosperous community
 The Nugget Is in entire accord with the report of the Grand Jury, and. the action taken by the Com mon Council of the City of Nome, the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce and the Boring Ma tive Brotherhood and it's auxiliary
 That the building now in use is unsuitable in every way, unsanitary and wholly inadequate to meet the ever growing educational demands of the native population of Nome, is a self evident fact, and. it is imperative. that prompt action be taken to afford the relief sought for. tN'f' .+. '
 The idea of raising the standards of education now in vogue in the native school, and also include in- dustrial training, is commendable.
 We strongly urge. the powers that be. to accept the city's gener- ous offer of a suitable site and erect building that will meet all present needs, with suitable pro vision for future requirements also.
