Cape Nome mining dispute spills into federal courts
The Portland Oregonian reports Judge Morrow reversed Judge Noyes and removed temporary receiver McKenzie over Cape Nome gold mines. The case, involving Lane and alien Laplanders, delays further action while surveyors decide patent rights. History traces gold discovery in 1897, wartime occupation by military, and the fierce ownership fight among Americans, Laplanders, and Lane with possible long court battles ahead.

Ex Warden E H Wilson of Bismarck starts a new ranch in Kidder county about 22 miles north of Steele. The project includes a 18 by 24 foot house a 28 by 112 foot barn and a shed with lumber to arrive. About 300 tons of hay was already produced this summer by contractors and Wilson plans immediate building work aided by Mr Beaver. The venture signals local confidence in North Dakota's growth and attracts stock to winter on the ranch. A note advertises value wool undergarments at five cents a pair at C M Dahle. A separate item claims no opposition to U S policy in the Philippines, except Aguinaldo and the Democratic party. A Lost or Stolen notice offers ten dollar reward for several horses sighted northwest of Wilton N D.
