To put it down your throat,
Yet still to tribulation
My soul will never bow,
While mother rocks the cradle,
And father guides the pillow.
Though corporations tumble,
And banks around US fall,
Though militants r fighting,
And blue ,oats go to Jail,
Old Glory and the nation
Are safe and sound | VOW

Huerta seems willing to quit. Car canxa seems not SO anxious to get in. Why! Simply because Mir VII son'y new doctrine says that there will not be any more money put at the disposal of the ruler of Mexico by the bankers of other countries. In other words, Mir. Wilson seems to have turned dentist and hts pulled th's tooth of profit out of the mouth of the Latin American presidential job.
 If 1t works. this new doctrine If the president who thinks for himself. MT. Wilson will Eo down In history ns the founder of q diplomatic policy even greater than that of Mfr. Monroe's and the job of being the chief executive of certain indigent states will not b' worth going after with fire md sword and murder.

= mitting txs asssssmsat spsa. Thsss xsniismsS THOUGHT that they were doing kindly act for Nome.
 what is the result? Just wander around and listen to the various and sundry opinions expressed on the subject. Right now one may hear that 1t is eniqiteous and infamous end within i've minutes one will hear that it is . fine thing. this remittfns of tho assessment work. It is going to be c big advantage to the commun- ity and 1t is the last straw In the way of calamity.
 The NUGGET does not pretend to argue the question one way or an- other. 1t Is merely stating facts.
 Nome wanted the assessment work rsmitted apparently or the gentlemen who leant their time and energy to getting the bill through congress. not an easy task by any means. would not have taken the matter up. and now. just as appearantly. Nome doesn't want the assessment work re- mittsd. What does the man outside think of thxtf
 In all fairness to the people who have generously tried to help Nome with money and with stores and with legislation 1t would seem that . little less sidesteppins on the part of Nome. little more knowledge of her own mind and little less selashness would have been In order.
 One thing is certain as the day Is long, 1t would not be at all surprising if the absurd attitude assumed from the very beginning of the trouble didn't end in disgusting those who are trying to help.
 There has been nothing but contra tiIction from Nome. mingled with some selnshness. and if the people and city of Nome cannot come together on at least one issue resultnat from the storm we will have no one but our. selves to blame ii we do not get all we think we ought to have.
 The right or wrong side of these various questions of course depends entirely on the point of view and the NUGGET is not at present discussing that. but . changeabIe woman and a spoiled child never amount to much.

Official Paper
NOME, AlAskA. NOV. 1s. 1918

Two things in this world are pro- vidsrs of much trouble and annoyance and ere neither Joy unto themselves nor Q pleasure to anyone else. A woman who does not know her own mind and . spoiled child. The woman is hopeless but the child may be corrected and in time learn to give up it's evu ways.
 If the two specimens above re- ferred to could be rolled into ono being we might set 1t up as statue in Barrack Square and label 1t Nome.
 The first thing that this city of Nome, which has been taking itself 70 very seriously since 1t got into the newspapers on account of the storm. knows 1t is going to be laughed at. Laughed at good and plenty. and there will be no kick coming from the spoiled child when that time comes.
 Nome had a rather bad storm soTno weeks ago and was pretty we'll fiat- tened out. or at any rate more fiat- tened out after the storm than 1t was before.
 In fact Nome needed a lot of help and got some. Got 1t fortunately be- fore she began to jump from one foot to the other like spoiled child and change her mind like a woman.
 If things have seemed to go wrong with relief matters there is no place to lay the blame except right here in Nome. If not another cent of relief comes from any source. and we hope that this win not be the case. the fault lies right here. If anyone doubts this just let them take an impartial view Of things as they were and ARE
 Nome sends word to the world that she is soreiy stricken and needs im- mediate help. People outside begin to contribute money end stores for Nome. Then, for purely selfish req sons. there were absolutely no other reasons. word goes out mo food. no stores. only money. money. money" what did the man outside think of that7
 From one sourcc In Nome comes al, appeal for immediate assistance and the same day or very shortly from another source comes word that Nome is not in need of assistance. What dId the man outside think Of that?
 Then 1t is suggssted that t would bs . good thing for Nome and the country around about 1t if the annual ,asesssment work was rcmitted for this year. Whose suggestion it was we do not know. nor does it mater tally Gfssct tho argument one way or the other Tho fact remains that from Ncms went the request for tho rsmittancs oe tho work and two vsry eool fsisn1s to Nome. no one may Aouht tAsir sincerity.

It took Ions, long time to figure 1t
 out. This new diplomacy of ours. Perhaps it wouldn't bs called diplo- macy by the older statesmen of the countries which have been playing the
 game longer than have we. If 1t
 turns out . failure it will never be
 called diplomacy. If it turns out well
 and accompiishes It's purpose 1t will mark q new epoch in international affairs and President Wilson will have established . precedent in dealing with the troublesome Latin. American countries that win work a great change for the better in them and put
 considerable of a crimp in certain
 bankers and gamblers who have made their living by lending money to IT, responsible cutthroat rulers and then getting Uncle Sam to collect for them.
 President Wilson s a student and . man of good judgment as we'll as A deep thinker. When 1t was an- nounced that he had taken hold of tho Mexican trouble the whole world breathed easier and expected some reasonable and rational policy to be adopted by the United States in place of the faiiacious "Srother Charlie policy" and the equally absurd "stx- teen- o-one' policy.
 The world was not mistaken In It's Judgment of MT. Wilson. 1t did not guess. no one could have guesssd. what was incubating in the mind ot the president who thinks for himself.
 But after he had discarded all the advice and theories of all of the pseudo statesmen who thrust their amat teurish and sophomoric susses- tons in his way he has finally evolved a doctrine whieh promises to be as far reaching and to become as famous as that of his distinguished predeces. sor Munroe.
 No one over thought of such solu- tion before probably and if they did think of it the money interests who thrive by dealing in the bon6s or the foolish countries where revolution is q pastime would not have allowed any doctrine which 70 interfered with their business to be promulgated. But Pro. sident Wilson is not behoiden to the money interests for his selection to bs the head of this nation and he VIII never put himself in their power. even if it costs him . defeat Therefore while his chief of stan was learning the rudiments oe diplomacy the pre- sldent was at work on . plan which will revoiutionise the deaiinss of the world with Latin. America.
 No man wants to Do president Of Mexico or any other South or Cen. trai Amenrican country from patriot ism. They do not know what tho word means. The only inducement for the grsaser politician is graft and the best and quickest way to get tho graft is to become president.
 HIerta doesn't want to be president of Mexico # the graft is out of the job. Neither does Casrsnsa or any one else. Thess gsntlsusn or any other gentlemen In tho present politi. cai slky. would not risk one hair oe thslr hsads for ths. jeb t ali thsv could sst out q t was shs snail salary aad the hsasr

GIANTS DEFEAT
GALVESTON TEAM
GREAT FORM AGAINST
TEXAS LEAGUERS

Galveston, Texas, March 24-Having
in mind that their mates were beaten
here Saturday, the Giant regulars re-
deemed the good name Of New York
yesterday afternoon by defeating the
Galveston Pirates by a SCORE Of to 1.
The home team never had a chance
with the Giants, whose strength was
buttressed by the undeciphera
pitching of Tesreau and Wi1tse and
timely hitting.
The attendance was the biggest the
Giants have played to this spring.
about 5000, and is said to be the larg-
est record here for an exhibition
game. There was a, big outpouring of
army people, officers and privates, all
in their Khaki, and many of the spec
tators saw the game squatting around
back of the foul lines.
Tesreau and Wdltse moved the Pr
rates down with minimum of hits
Merk1e's muff OF a thrown ball ac-
counted for the single Galveston run,
an error excusabIe under the circurn-
stances, for it occurred on a short,
low throw by Wilson in fielding q. ball
in front of the plate. The first four
men who faced Tesreau struck out,
big Jeff having scorching smoke.
Moore, who was with the Reds a
while last year, held the Giants to four
scattered safetiee in the first four in
nings, but in the fifth came the reek-
oning. Tesreau opened a rally with
a single, Snodgrass walked, and Sha-
fer singled Then Burns tripled,
Doyle singled and Devore followed
quit. Five runs sifted to the goal and
the game was as good as over.

BILLIARD TITLE MAY
CHANGE HANDS SOON

There is likely to be a new Aneri-
cam amateur champion at 1872 baIkline
billiards when the Glass A tourname nt,
scheduled to begin at the Union
League Club in Philadelphia tomorrow,
is completed. NJ D. Brown is the
present holder of the premier amateur
cue title of America, having won the
1912 tournament at Brooklyn. Percy
Collins of Chicago and J. F. Poggen-
burg, who won the international
championship of the world shortly af-
ter the conclusion Of the. Glass A
event were Browns closest competi-
tors Conklin of Chicago, who fin
ished fourth last year, and who for
unerIy held both national and interna-
tionaI titles, was reported recently to
be playing at top form. Collins de-
feated Morris Brown last year, al
though the latter won out in the fin
ish.
The American pocket billiard cham
pionship tournament is also scheduled
to begin today, in New York Last

man of New York. and two other New

ONE ROUND HOGAN
MAY GO TO EUROPE.

Gil Boag, manager of One Round
Hogan, the famous California. light
wight who is billed to box Al Ketche1,
premier lightweight Of Connecticut at
the National A. C., In New Haven on
the night of March 31st, has just re-
ceived an offer to bring Hogan over
to the French capital and show him
to the Partisan fans. The offer came
in a cablegram and there were few
details but the gum offered looks IN
vfting and Boag may accept.
At present Boag is doing his utmost
to get Champion Willie Richie 70
agree to a match but the champion
is very quiet. Boag has already ac-
cused Richie of running out Of one
match with Hogan and this possibly
has not made Ritehie feel any too
kindly towards him, In the event Of
there being no possibility Of a match
with the title-ho1der Hogan viii %
across the pond.
If Ketchel defeats Hogan OF course
there will be another story to tell with
possibly the Paris offer Withdrawn
and the Ritchfe thing of course abso-
Iutely off. For this reason the bout
on the 31st means more than usual
to Hogan and he win probably do his
best to end things up in short Order.
AS an added attraction JEFF Dohsrty
has been match ed to box Tommy 1FBl-
son ofrPort Chester. The other bouts
will bring Bunny Ford and Spike
Hickey together and Tommy Shea and

WHEN SAM KENNEDY
PICKED SOUR PITCHER
DeMott OF New Haven STAR Dropped
oucR1y From Big League.

They're telling tale now OF Ben

A Cleveland scout was not the only

Other scouts read the same fulsome
reports OF the prowess of the Lafayette
wonder. Incidentally, Benjamin Har-

and became innbued with wholesome
respect OF his own value. CONSEQUENT
" when the big league scouts mobiI-
lied at Bethlehem, Pa, they found B.
Harrison De Mott surrounded by
newspaper clippings calling attention

smote by the same B. Harrison. B.
Harrison might be q forestry student,
but he was no bIockhead.
There's the documents, gentlemen, -

am? Remember you don't have to
