it is suggested that Nome employ CTS take immediate steps to pro- feet themselves as employers in other parts of Alaska have done have all employees sign a pow CT of attorney slip permitting the employer to withhold transporta- ton cost to Seattle. When the un- desirable leaves the payroll, pur- chase his ticket out, turn it over to transportation company and give the ex-employe the balance. This is not beautiful dream this is being done.

MONIES FIRE OF '34

MONIES FIRE OF '34
 Just 10 years ago yes terday, on Monday, Sep tember IT, 1884, Nome suffered the greatest loss in it's colorful history.
 The major portion of the city, including all of the business district, every business house in Nome, covering 12 city blocks, with the exception of the two lighterage plants, were victims of the conflagra- tion.
 A relief committee, or ganized immediately, sent a report ot the devastation to the then Governor Troy at Juneau.
 The report stated: "Es- timated building loss was $2,000,0O0, exclusive of federal buildings. Fire wiped out 12 city blocks, including federal, munici- pal, and a portion of the residential district. Schools and the hospital were not damaged. Sufficient food here for immediate needs"
 The report went on to say, speedy preparations were necessary as winter was just around the cor ner. Housing was the prob lem, but the northern hos pitality prevailed and no one had to sleep out-of- doors.
 It was reported, also, that fire department equip ment was necessary, and that streets, sidewalks, mains and drains had to be started at once.
 The message was signed by G. R. Jackson, chair man of the EZRA commit tee. Much water has flown under the bridge, or rather, great strides have been made III aVlat1On Tn Alaska, since the fire.
 Nome is now, as always, a very independent little burg and has made it's way through its various mishaps, with flying col ors.
 Federal offices were opened here one week af- ter the fire, following the opening of vaults.
 At that time Pilot Bob Ellis arrived from Seattle with four passengers, in- cluding Alfred Lo1nen of
