STEALING PAPERS.

Quite a few gentlemen in this city. as we'll as other cities. follow the peculiar custom of stealing newspa- pers from the porches and doors of houses in which they have been placed by the carriers. This has been par ticnlaTly noticeable within the past few days owing. no doubt, 10 the anxiety which such gentlemen feel re- sarding the result of the national election. In many cases copies of the Nugget have been taken in a manner ws!cs leads 10 the belief that the pill ferers have adopted scientific meth cd which prevents their discovery. One evening a paper will be taken from one house and next evening the next house gets visited and so on until the subscribers keep the phone in the office ringing necessarily with inquiries as to why the paper has not been delivered
 The chances are that these gentry are the very first to register protest against the papers policy. and the Tact that il does not come up to the stan dard of the New York Herald In it's teleGraphic department They seem to he blissful oblivious to the fact that swiping papers is q poor method of improving their favOrite Journalistic booty and may only tend towards swelling the coffers of the city mag istrate if they get caught.
 of course such petty thieves are hardly susceptible to argument. They are only a small part, and the smaller part. of the community but the Nugget would be glad to receive a clue to one ar two of them. Perhaps it would do them good to learn that the law still believes that the equal distribution of the product of labor does not apply to the distribution department of news

Mr Munseys tentative engagement of the colonel to edit the New York Press after the election. reminds one of the forehandedness of old Joe Bean. for years justice of the peace and coroner in the Pecos country in West ern Texas.

OFFICIAL PAPER
NOME. ALASKA, NOV. g. 1912
THE ELECTION.

The national election has proven that President Taft did not have the confidence of the country. IL proved that Inc former idal. RuOeseVelt had feet uf clay. and il proved. thank heaven that the country contains only S0O.O00 dope fiends.
 But il proved one fact which has been receiving proofs since the begin ming of popular government. and tha, Is that thu people are naturally in- elined to make a change of govern ment after a certain time A famous British statesman described this result of the desire for change as the swing of the pendulum"
 Elections generally show that the hearts of the people are sound. even when they defeat the party to which We ourselves might owe allegiance. They go to the polls evidently to vote according to their convictions. For a long time people have been prepared for democratic victory. There was something in the air which showed that the administration had lost con fdence. and that something in the air has taken material shape.
 of course the day will come again when the swing of the pendulum will bring back the vote to republicanism or some other party. The desire for the usefulness of government by the party system.

ROOSEVELT WILL
WRITE TO PR0BERS
ABOUT CONTRIBUTIONS
Associated Press Dispatch.

Oyster Bay. N. v, Aug. 25---
Having failed to obtain hearing
before the Senate investigating COM
mittee, investigating campaign CON
tributions, because of the inability
of the committee to get together, to-
morrow, Col. Roosevelt plans tc
write the committee a letter, en-
bodying some of the things to which
he would have testified He also de-
clared, tonight, in statement, in
which he also took the committee to
task for permitting John d. Arch
bold to sail for Europe, without tell
ing more about the $25,000 he con-
tributed to the Republican campaign
in Pennsylvania in 1904.
Roosevelt had received no direct
word from Senator Clapp, when the
correspondent visited him tonight.
He had heard indirectly, he said, of
the committees inability to have
him appear before it tomorrow.
He said the Senate need not bother
about comforting additional powers
on the committee, if they wanted to
find out about the primary campaign,
his relations with George w. Per-
kins and William Flynn, or any
other matters connected with his
primary campaign, or for that mat
ter anything that he had ever done
as president
Details of his primary campaign
however, would have been brought
out by questioning him, Col. Roose-
welt feels that inasmuch as he will
not be questioned, he plans, at pres.
ent to confine himself chiefly in his
letter to refuting the testimony ol
John d. Archbold, in which Arch
bold said he was assured that Roose-
welt knew of and appreciated a con.
tribution of 100000, which Arch,
bold testified he made in 1904 to the
Republican campaign.
