A matter of vital importance D the entire people of Monroe Bounty nnd especially to the business men and land owners, HOW awaits some quick act of sDlution. It is well known that never before in the history of the county has there been plant d so many acres of irish and sweet potatoes. corn, peas, hay, peanuts. cantaloupes, water melons, oats, wheat. etc, as now. Unless there is an organized and Efficient marketing plan, the farmers who have put in these products will have no way of realizing any profit or ready oash out of their respective crops. The time has come for a united action and that must be done quick or else the good work that has already been done will be worse than lost. Unless a cash market can be formed for their products there will be no more diversifcation by the farmers.
 The writer has been over all of Monroe County during the past few weeks and it IS sur prising to note that farmers in every section of the county have diversified their crops Farmers should themselves realize the importance of an organized effort at marketing or else they will be unable to realize any thing for their irish and sweet potatoes, oats. wheat, corn, A Anfermellons, hay. onions and

Why 1t is that tho president ana his advisors have failed to discern the that the 1ermanic powers were pre- pared to stop at nothing in order to achieve the destruction of any condi- ion or thing which might tend to aid their enemies, will probably remain a mystery which cannot be oxplained, even in the liHht of their "Yatchful waiting inclinations.

 The ordinance, which was rushed through as an emergency measure. pro- lides a fine of not less than BIO or more than $1o0 and not over 90 days In jail for those failing to take out the required license.
 One councilman declared that he was tired of seeing the city paying interest on borrowed money to meet the bills of the city while many prop erty owners have failed to pay their taxes and merchants their license tax.

City Official Paper
NOME ALASKA. DEC. 8. 1s1e.


 The decision of the government to eliminate as far as possible all foreign officials whose activities are harmful to the best interests of the nation. an- nouncement of which was contained In recent dispatches Is well chosen and will in all probability. result in an abatement of the many mysterious dynamite explosions and other destruc- tive activities manifested throughout the country during the past several months.
 That action of this character is not only timely but actually necessary is being daily disclosed with growing torcibility.
 Each passing week brings added demonstrations of the lengths to which the agents of foreign governments are wiling to go ln their efforts to destroy what is at present probably the great est national industry-the manufacture of war supplies for the entente allies. 
 Each week finds the record of de- struction visited upon manufactories of army supplies increasing with a rapid lty that is fast becoming alarming So many evidences of arson rings. dyna- mite plots and other destructive con- apiracies are being disclosed by the arm ant seemingly has no other alternative than 10 make some effort to call a halt be- fore they shall have reached a stage where the complete destruction of our predominating industry Is threatened.
 That mighty destructive forces are at work throughout the country can no longer be doubted and that they are being fostered and encouraged, if not entirely instigated, by the representa- tives of the Teutonic allies seems no longer a matter for doubt in view of the recent disclosures in the Boy-Ed, Von Papen and Nuber cases, now oc- cupying the attention of the admins tration. Hence, it is time that deci- sive steps were taken to sweep the country clear of such interference with it's internal activities.
 The largest subject for wonder in this connection Is that matters of this character have remained so long pe- glected or ignored by the Washington authorities. The yirulent attacks of l Dr. Dernberg. the Dumba affair, togeth- l CT with the many exposures of anti ! neutral activities on the part of other representatives of the Teutonic gov ernments, have long been easily dis cernible evidences of the inclinations of those governments In the matter of restricting war supply shipments, while the rapidly multiplying number of de- structive manipulations have disclosed that those, inclinations have now be- come more than inclinations. Wishes. through the carelessness or indifference of Washington, have become realities and, as a consequence. we are now facing condition which cannot be viewed as other than alarming.
 The government has been by far too lenient in not stifiing conspiracies of this character before they had time to reach the present destructive stage. Instead of starting a rigorous inyesti- gation of the many preliminary evi- dences of destructive tendencies mani- fested during the past four or five months, tho administration has per- mitted them to multiply and expand the most startling proportions.
