The Nome nugget., 1933-05-06

Ever since the days of the dis covery of the great deposits of placer. gold on the beaches between EBlu6 and Nome, the origin of these placers have been the object of search, and within the last few weeks efforts to discover the source of the beach gold supply have been crowned with success.
 Charles E. Berg. brother Of Peter Berg, oldime miner of the Nome section. and himself an ex- perienced hard rock miner, went North three or four years ago. and while prospecting on the hill- side found gold bearing quartz that has every prospect of deyel- oping into great lode property. This discovery was made last fall, 'but Berg did not make his find public until short time before I left Nome for Seattle. Berg has located what are known as the Philadelphia lode claims and one half miles from Nome at the head of Tripple Creek and on the Osborne Road west of Nome River.
 Berg sank four shafts aver aging IS feet in depth, 25 feet apart, on an incline following the vein, and found the same cond- itfons in the four shafts. Berg had found considerable placer on Tripple Creek and followed the gold back into the hills up the, steep mountain.
 1.-Two assays of samples of the ore taken by Berg were sent to the United States Bureau of Mines at the Fairbanks College of Mines and returned value of $27.16 |per ton in silver and gold. An other picked sample was sent to Philadelphia in December which showed value of $47.1S.
 ''To show the geology of the elaine. Berg took six samples con- Itiguous to the veins. The first sample contained greensboro, cal- cite and amphibloe. The second sample srystoline rhinestone of mar ble, containing dolomite. The third sample. calcite mineral sprink led with iron pyrites containing gold and silver. Fourth sample, nothing but amphibole, oxidized. Fifth sample. schistose, limestone and quartz. Sixth sample. nothing but mica schist.
 ''The discovery is significant because of the very favorable com position Of the minerals uncover ed. which are said to contain the mineral element necessary for the development of great mine. If the values hold up with depth there is no Questino that one of the sources of the great placer gold deposits on the Norton Sound beaches has been solved and that other great lode claims will be dis covered. opening up an area sixty miles in length for the develop |ment of quartz mines. ."-Alaska Weekly. -

ROOSEVELT ASKS
 FOR HIGHER WAGES

WASHINGTON, May 5th, (P)- President Roosevelt stated that the government would give ready assistance to any movement on he part of industry to rid itself of the evils of cut throat compe- tftion, in his address before the United States Chamber of Com merce last night.
 Discussing the question as to whether industrial regulations should be made by the govern mont or by business itself, the Chief Executive called for rising wage scale. He asked the busi- ness men to be more concerned ito restore general prosperity than with bettering their own particu- lar branch of industry, calling at- tention to the slight but definite up turn of most industries, and the simultaneous rise in commod- ity prices. p
 Roosevelt said that past exper- fence indicated that when the price level begins to rise, after a long period of declining commod- ity prices, wages which have been previously curtailed, lag behind the rise of the price level. therefore ask. you to refrain from further reduction of wages of em- ployees, and also to increase the wage scales in conformity with the rise level of commodity prices, in 80 far as this lies within your power"

SEWARD PENINSULA AGOG OVER RECENT DISCOVERY
 OF LODE GOLD DEPOSITS

Alaska is surely coming into its own under the new deal' inaug- urated by the new administra- tion." declared Antonio Polet, pro minent merchant of Nome and sec retary of the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce, who arr rived in Seattle from the North recently on the s. s. Alaska, accompanied by Mrs. Polet. on a comIbined business and pleasure Frip. They made the long journey south by airplane, railroad and steamer, and for their say in Seattle have taken quarters in the Spring Apartment. Mir. Polet has business transactions bhat will en- gage him in this city for a week or more, after which he will just '4take it easy for a couple of weeks before returning north. Mrs. Polet will remain Outside for a more extended visit.
 We of Nome estimate that there are 1.50O people in that city this winter, d larger number than for many years past" said MT. Polet We knew there were nore stay-at homes than usual, but that fact was not fully carried home to us until school started last September when it was found thirty more pu- pills were enrolled in the schools than the allotted number of teacn ers could care for. Permission was asked for and granted by the Com missioner of Education for an ad- ditional teacher, and the teacher made the trip tp Nome quickly by ainplane.
 "A part of the unusual winter activity was accounted for by the fact that for while the MGM moving picture troupe was ia Nome with large number of Es- ktmo 'extras' but as a matter of fact there were many more per- manent residents there this win ter than usual.
 "When I said Alaska is coming ito its own I meant just tEat. for in the contacts the Nor. lwest A'aska Chamber of Commerc; has with the other commercial bodies of the Territory. know the pro yress that has been made in the of the North. But it was particularly to Seward Penin- suia that I was referring. We have forged ahead in a sub stantial and gratifying ,way in the last few years. particularly in the last year, and with the increased activities in different fields of en- deavor that are known to be a certainty this coming season, our section will advance materially in new developments.
 '.In this respect mining, .of course will take the lead, and qua rtz mining has every appearance of developing into great industry.

that he could do this within two or
three days after they had recon-
vened.
"It is obvious that the purpose of
this provision was that there may be
a peaceful termination of what other
wise might be a long drawn out con-
troversy, caused by conflict of op-
inion, obstructing further legisla-
tion, arousing partisan feelings, end
ing all hopes Of agreement and dis
turbing free intercourse even be-
tween members. 1t is because of
this fact that the Governor is given
authority to prolong the General
Assembly by adjournment until such
time as the Constitution provides,
so that opportunity may be had for
reason to take the place of passion
and that hatred and malice be sup
planted by charity and kind feel
ings.
Under such circumstances, the
Governor alone must judge whether
the public interest demands the ex-
ercise of the power vested in him.
Under the Constitution he alone is
the judge of the disagreement which
calls upon him to interpose his own
authority to determine the contro-
versy."

this year, especially, among the
demonstrators, than had been in
previous years, which was most en-
couraging. However, almost over
night, women were relating the sad
story of destruction, because Of
storms and floods.
A few, IL in number, women were
able to save part of their paintings
largely because of high ground, and
were able, therefore, to report an
average of six vegetables for use in
late fall.
On a whole, however, the reports
for spring and summer gardens do
not show much improvement. In
fact many of them show very little
variety, which means that after all,
no special effort was made to i'm
prove the food supply during the
spring and summer. Only one wo-
man reports vegetables taken from
her garden earlier than May, which
shows that no plans were made for
early vegetables, and in most cases
then, the variety was very limited.
The above facts show that there
is still need for people to think more
seriously about the we'll being Of
their families through the medium
of good wholesome food grown at
home. December and January are
months in which plans should be
made for the early spring garden,
again the Extension Service is urg-
ing that people lose no time in maxi
ing such plans for the year 1884.

sold up to 81 in some mid-western
markets. General jobbing range of
eastern yellow onions was SOC to
SLIPS. Prices of white onions were
firm but red stock Jagged behind the
general market. Eastern producing
sections advanced about &c, quoting
No. yellow stock above 81 and
prices. were only slightly below that
level in western. Michigan with good
demand and firm market.
Carrots sold at irregular prices
without general trend. New York
quoted $1.05 to $1.15 per 100 pounds
compared with soc in producing Sec
tions.
Demand for celery became very
slow in western New York produc-
ing sections in early December and
$1.50 per two-thirds crate was about
top price. Eastern cities quoted this
stock $1.75 to $2.25. Prices of Cali
fornia celery followed an irregular
course, averaging fairly steady in
eastern and midwestern city mar
kets. Because most of the Califor-
mia stock ran to large sizes, the
smaller sizes of celery, especially
the S-dozen pack, from New York
have been in unusually good de-
mand.
Supplies of spinach continued
heavy but prices were well sustained
up to the first of the month. Prices
declined slightly the first week of
December with quotations of 40c to
Csc per bushel for New Jersey and
Pennsylvania stock and SOC to 81 for
Texas and Virginia Savoy spinach.
Cranberries show slightly weaker
tendency since Thanksgiving, espe-
cially for fruit of only fair cOndi-
ton. The holiday trade was active
at general range of $1.25 to so,
mostly SLIPS to $1.50, per quarter
barrel in eastern city markets.
Prices are much the same as those
of last season although probably a
larger proportion of the receipts
sold in the top range of prices this
year. Supplies are still quite heavy
and the mild weather has been un-
favorable for keeping the fruit in
good condition.
Hothouse tomatoes from Ohio are
a feature in some markets, selling
well at 81 to SLIPS per s pounds for
desirable lots but price trend has
been slightly downward so far this
month, owing perhaps to increasing
supplies from Texas and other pro-
ducing sections of the south.

Shipment figures for fruits and
vegetables decreased sharply near
the first of December according to
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
as compared with late November or
with shipments a year ago. Failing
off was mainly on such leading items
as POTATOES, sweet potatoes, apples,
celery, grapes and grapefruit. The
usual lulr in trade after a holiday
brought quiet markets, but most
prices were holding fairly well. On
ions and cabbage made some further
price gains under light supplies. The
potato market continued irregular
and was stronger in the East than
in the Middle West contrary to pre-
vailing conditions last month. Ap-
pie markets show little change, hold
ing well at the higher levels reached
since the harvest season. Foreign
apple markets are showing general
ly increased returns as compared
with last season owing in part to
favorable currency exchange condi-
tions.
Sweet Potatoes Gain
Sweet potatoes advanced in some
markets during late November and
early December. Tops of 81 per
barrel were reached for Eastern
Shore stock in New York but other
markets quoted $1.50 to $1.S5. New
Jersey stock was irregular at 81 to
$1.40 per bushel in eastern markets.
Virginia and North Carolina red
yams brought 75c to $1.25. Della
ware and Maryland sweets of the
Jersey type sold at 75c to 81. North
Carolina Porto Ricans weakened a
little in Pittsburgh at 81 to $1.10.
Cabbage Market Strong
Prices of cabbage were still tend
ing upward during the first week of
December. Eastern producing sec
tions quoted s35 to $40 per ton in
bulk although demand was limited
at these prices. Wisconsin produc-
ing sections quoted $33 to $34. East
ern city markets ranged about steady
at $40 to SAT. Some producers were
reported holding for higher prices,
expecting rather light supplies un-
til the heavy paintings in the South
become active in hte markets the
second half of December. Current
