Nome Railroad
Changes Hands;
Transfer Made
The Seward Peninsula Railroad
has been formally transferred to
the Territory by the Pioneer Mining
Company, according to a statement
made today by Col. James G. Steese,
President of the Alaska Road Com
mission. Capt. C. S. Wurd, Assistant
Engineer Officer of the Commission,
took possession of the property for
the Territorial Government, the
transfer being made at Nome.
The Actual cost of the property
was $24,000. The price named was
$25,000 but the mining 'company
discounted that $1,000 in considera
tion for an Immediate cash payment.
A warrant was drawn several days
ago and signed by the Territorial
Treasurer for the former amount.
A deed to the railroad and accom
panying property is now en route
from San Francisco to Nome for
record.
The acquisition of the road. It
was stated, was accmpllshed so late
in the season as to prevent any com
prehensive rehabilitation work be
ing undertaken. A cableway will
be erected at Iron Creek to facilitate
winter traffic but beyond that noth
ing will be done. Several hundred
thousand feet of timber fca^e be mi
secured by the Alaska Road Com
mission from the former army post |
at St. Michael and will be used in
putting the road in operating shape. 1
This timber is being shipped across!
Norron Sound to Nome this Fall
and will be on the ground ready
when next season's work begins.
Other material for rehabilitation
will also be assembled during the
winter. Under the agreement made
between the Alaska Road Commis
sion and the Territory, the main
tenance of the property and re
sponsibility for its operation i3 und
ertaken by the former organiza
tion.
The Commission has made a thor
ough study of the road and Its
equipment during the past two sea
sons. Col Steese and Col. Gotwalls
were both over It last year and Capt.
Ward has spent several months in
that district this year. The latter will
leave Nome within the next day or
two for Seattle, coming out ou the
Victoria. From Seattle he will go
to Juneau.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one nay to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that Is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. Wit.en this tube it
inflamed you have a rumblitg sound or im
perfect hearing, nnrt when it is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to Its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many case* or
deafness are caused 1>y catarrh, which is
an Inflamed condition of the mucous cur~
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thra
the btood on the mucous surfaces of the»
system.
We will give One Hundred- Dollars fpr
