 MT. Feeley, who was accompan- jed by Tom Stroebe as helper, and Capt, Smith, also cruised to several gold prospects in the vicinity of Lemesurier Island. MT.

NOME TRIO GOES THROUGH JUNEAU ON PRIN. LOUISE.
Ralph Lomen Paints Glow ing Future for Sew
 ard Peninsula

Three prominent residents oi Nome, Grant Jackson, president o the Miners and Merchants Bank ol Nome, and Alfred J. Lomen anc Ralph Lomen, heads of the exten- Sive Lomen Brothers commercial company interests on Seward Penin- sula, were passengers through Ju- neau yesterday morning on the Princess Louise from Skagway.
 The three men flew from Nome to Whitehorse by PA plane, from where they connected with the Prin- cess Louise by rail at Skagway.
 Nome is a community that is travelling at full speed again, and knows it." said Ralph Lomen, and his declaration met with full agree ment from Alfred Lomen and Grant Jackson. Two years ago, MT. Lo- men continued, Nome was in a hole, both physically and mentally. Not only was the town only half there, but the residents had the at titude that it would never come back. Last year things were better, and the people began to perk u9 some. But, this last season. every thing was doing fine and the peo- pie are looking forward to better times than ever before"
 High Spirits
 Concerning the Lomen interests, Ralph Lomen said that the reindeer business had been slow this season, but that the "lighterage" end of the business had enjoyed a very good year, surpassing by several boats the business of the past few years. And we too, are looking forward to next year with high spirits" MT Lomen declared.
 Continuing. MT. Lomen stated that, "One of the things that is going to aid Seward Peninsula and do much toward making Nome a year around town, is the awaken ing interest in the quartz mining possibilities of the section; much development along that line being brought to the front, either now or in the near future
 Remain in Seattle
 The Lomen brothers are going first to Seattle, and do not as yet know whether they will remain there all winter, or go East.
 My brother Alfred will probably not return until well along in the summer" Ralph Lomen said, "but I am figuring on going back into the Peninsula earlier than usual and do little mining, on my owl, account
 Both the Lomen brothers and MT Jackson expect to pass through Ju- neau on their return voyage to Nome.
