56548Pullman & Seattle WA: Frank A. Golder 1912. Atlas folio. Five leaves sized from 12 x 22 in. up to 22.75 x 28 in. 1st. - Pencil manuscript on hand-ruled graph chart w/ boxes all filled in some additions on thick yellow paper stock two pieces taped together on verso; 2nd - Original typescript w/ some corrections made on typing paper two pieces taped on verso minor tear creasing; 3rd -- Blueprint from typescript; 4 & 5 both typescript copies on thin typing paper couple minor closed tears still VG set. Original manuscript and typescript tables prepared by Golder 1877-1929 for early lectures on Russian economic and diplomatic history and â€œA Survey of Alaska 1743-1799â€ 1913. Published in the Washington Historical Quarterly these charts trace the growth and economic impact of the Russian fur trade from the 18th Century into the 19th Century. At the time Golder was unable to find one single source of the information so he created his own charts and they chronicle the growth and impact of the fur trade in Alaska breaking down not only all the vessels navigators and owners but also the types of cargo including beaver fox sea otter otter tails sea bears sea lions whale mustaches walrus tusks blue arctic fox and their values. The two additional typescript tables separate out the furs from the Chelichof and Golikofs Co. i.e. Shelikhov-Golikov Co. from 1786-1797 notorious for their massacres of indigenous Alutiiqs in 1784 on Kodiak Island known as the Awaâ€™uq Massacre allowing the Russian Co. control over the island. Directly afterwards Golder spent the next decade actively working in Russian Archives during the Russian Revolution and eventually produced his Guide to Materials for American History in Russian Archives and built the massive Slavic language collection at the Hoover War History Collection.

THE NOME, ALASKA NEWSBiblio.com

A MURDEROUS KNIFE WIELDED

190141698Nome: The Nome News 1901. 1901. ALASKA CRIME. First edition. 15" x 22" newsprint 4 pp. printed in six columns. The newspaper is printed semi-weekly and this issue is dated August 17 1901. This newspaper is quite content-rich compared to most small papers of the era with considerable space devoted to original local news content. Problems of violence and frontier justice dominate this issue. A large headline on the front page blares "A Murderous Knife Wielded" and describes a fight over a woman in which one man's head was nearly severed. Another lengthy story reports that a gang of 65 masked men attacked a camp on Glacier Creek at three o'clock in the morning--leading to thirteen arrests and one man hospitalized with a gunshot would--all the result of a disputed mining claim the history of the dispute is recounted in the article. A separate editorial reacts to these events with a call for martial law at the camp concluding "A man may kill another in the heat of passion for principle and be justified but the man who deliberately plans to jeopardize life for gold over which there is a clouded title is a murder to all intents and purposes and deserves the fate of a murderer." Another article reports that Judge James Wickersham spent a day in Nome on his way to Unalaska where he will preside over two murder trials and that he is concerned about finding enough competent jurors. And yet another reports that 54 members of the Nome Bar Association have sent a signed petition to President McKinley requesting that he remove District Judge Arthur H. Noyes on the grounds that he "is vacillating and dilatory weak and partial negligent careless and absolutely incompetent" and that "the interposition of a fearless honest and competent judge is urgently required at Nome to prevent further riot and bloodshed to preserve law and order and to protect life liberty and property." The story of yet another murder also gold-related appears on the paper's last page where we also find the usual classified and display advertising. Several creases from folding and a small area of loss at the center shaped like a small triangle that affects all pages and measures 1/2" x 1/2" x 1." Good clean copy. The Nome News, 1901. unknown
