Review of Mining
POtentialities Of
Seward Peninsula
BY HOWARD LYING
Territorial Senator
The ninth in series of articles
ercIusiue to the Nome Nugget


interest to first give a brief his
tory of Nome's beginnings, includ-
ing the names Of the men who
made the first gold discoveries
that precipitated one of the
worlds greatest gold rushes, the
claims staked, who staked them,
and the creeks on which they
were located.
On the 31st day of July, 1898,
eight men departed from Chinik
(Golovin) bound for Sinrock, 100
miles to- the westward, to investi-
gate a report given to John
Brynteson by Laurits Stephenson
Of the Unalakleet Reindeer Sta
ton, that natives had found gold
in the Sinrock River. They were:
John Brynteson, Eric 0. Lund-
bloom, Jafet Lindeberg, III. L.
Blake, Chris Kimiber, F. l.. Porter,
John Hagelin, and the Rev. N. o.
Hultberg of the Swedish Covenant
Mission at Chirik.
On Aug. 4, due to- a sudden
Boring Sea storm, they sought
shelter in Snake River. While
waiting for the blow to subside,
despite the wind and rain, some
of the expedition members took a
quick look at the country, includ-
ing the creeks later known as An
vii, Mountain, Glacier, and Lind
bloom, as well as Snake River.
Two days after entering Snake
River the party again started for
Sinrock. After eight days in the
Sinrock area, with no encourag-
ing prospects, the party returned
to Golovin, arriving there Aug. 81.
The Rev. N. 0. Hultberg pro-
ceeded to form a second expedi-
ton for the purpose of prospect
ing the creeks tributary to Snake
River observed on the Sinrock
trip. On the 10th of September
John Bryntesen, Eric Londbloom,
Jafet Lindeberg, with two natives
to sail the boat, left for Snake
River, returning to Golovin Oct.
LIST, with about $35 worth of gold
dust PANIED out in making dis
coveries on the different creeks.
A decision was then made to
keep the discoveries quiet, and to
return following snowfall, using
reindeer for transportation. This
decision was changed, however, a
day or two later, and third and
final expedition was formed and
QUILTED.
Seeking a larger boat than that
used on the two previous trips,
the four-ton schooner owned by
the Swedish Covenant Mission
was obtained in exchange for
building a small school house for
the mission-this was accomplish
ed in six days. At this time
California miner named Gabe w.
Price arrived from Kotzebue via
St. Michael-he had been sent to
the Kotzebue district by Chas. D.
Lane, head of the Wild Goose
Mining Company to- prospect the
region. AS the expedition lacked
anyone with placer mining ex-
perience, Price was invited to join
the party and an agreement was
reached that he was to get No.
Anvil and to stake No. 9 for his
brother, R. L. Price.
On Oct. II, 1898, the schooner
loaded with supplies and mining

Minute Sermon

w recall the famous story re-
corded in Mark l2:l3-l6 And
they send unto him certain of the
PhariseeS and of the Herodians.
that they might catch him i'm talk.
And when they were come, they
say unto him, Teacher, we know
that thou art true, and carest not
Tor any one; for thou regardest
not the person of men, but of a
truth teachest the way of God: Is
1t lawful to Civ tribute unto Caes-
ar, or not? Shall we give. or shall
we not give? But he, knowing
their hypocrisy, said unto them.
Why make we trial of me? Bring
me a denarius, that may see it.
And they brought it. And he saith
unto them, Whose is this image
and superscription? And they said
unto him, Caesars"
One of the new poets on the
American literary horizon, Leroy
Smith, Jr., in his book first pub
lished, imagines the effect of that
conversation upon the questioner:
Il was that Pharisee who showed
the coin
To Yeshua, whom some thought
mad and others
A peril to the frail integrity

Stocks Up Sharply in Second
Quarter
Department store inventories rose
sharply during the second quarter,
reaching in June their highest level
since the fall of 1851. With the
exception of January and June, both
months in which business fell off
appreciably, they have maintained
a fairly satisfactory relationship
to sales. The improvement in sales
volume in July, as indicated by
weekly figures, should remove most
of the distortion in the sales inven-
tory picture apparent at the end of
the second quarter. Outstanding
