A HEART 10 HEART TALK

Harking back to the old days we re- call several instances when the good people of Nome were amused and of ten annoyed by the froth- ing utterances of the evening sheet. The drivelling exudations of it's daily spasms became so nauseating at one time as to attrect the attention of a neighboring scribe, who inspired by Charity and Kindness and a keen re- gard for the communitys literary ap- petite proceeded to renovate his broth CTS sanctum. This he did most effect ually and by his facile pen estab- lishcd in Newspaper Row" a stand ard of respect and decency.
 The evening journalistic craft was forced to an anchorage in clean waters. There it remained until recently sometimes leaning to Starboard and sometimes to Port. with it's nose all ways pointing toward the glittering peaks of Sordid Pelf. But now it has slipped it's moorings, and it is darlily hnted that pratcal crew of political swashbucklers are on the bridge led by Count MaZuma, who with the Wick ersham chart have steered the lumber ing hulk into the slimy slough of villi- fieation, misrepresentation and vitu-
 
 overheard the Guano Cargo and it is being promiscuously and sureptitously scattered in the form of EXTRA COPIES of the Daily Joke, throughout our fair city.
 But to recur for a moment to the editorial lunacy of the Nugget and its screening political propaganda. Has anyone been able to determine the source and inspirations of the recent spasms? We know of none. The same tenor the same trend, and the same old stock phrases SIS in the days of yore. The ear marks of the upper story are unmistakable. His last out burst is thing of beauty and d joy forever. We Quote: The gang is out to rule and neither reputation or any thing else is entirely safe" Think of it good people--there arc other char acter assasSins in Nome besides the Nugget, But hark yc- the Nugget has reformed-listen to i,s coofvseicn of new found faith.

What u great comfort to know that the Daily Joke of Front Street has at last experienced change of heart and is now guided by Principle What disappointmcnt-- to the few who at times indulge in an intellectual debauch by reading the Nugget.
 If we were assured there was no grin on the face of the management when this declaration of reform was being set up-Wc might believe the old lady of Front Street was really re- pentant.
 There are two things of which the Nugget feels absolutely certain. First: That John Franklin Alexander Strong is a saintly character, and not an

Polly Of The Circus"
Is Packed With Thrills

Polly of the Circus, an elaborate
screen presentation of Margaret Mayos
great drama of circus life, is the first
of the beautiful productions to be re-
leased by the new Goldwyn Pictures
Corporation. Mae Marsh is the star
of this immense photo-spectacle which
is being shown at the Opera House
Wednesday, May l.
Polly of the Circus" as a drama was
one OF the greatest successes of the
American stage, and made a fortune
for its authors and owners. In films it
takes its place as one of the most re-
markable productions ever made,
"Polly of the Circus" tells the story
of little circus orphan Mae Marsh ,
who has been raised by Toby, the clown
CHARLES Eldridgel Polly is hurt in an
accident and has to remain behind
while the show goes on She is taken
to the home Of the minister, where her
presence in the house is turned to scan
dial by the narrow-minded village Cos
sips
This leads to her going back to the
circus, but the following Spring the
circus comes back to the little town,
and through the intervention of a fight
anda fire in the "Big Top, Polly and
the minister find each other-and hap
piness.
This is a picture of laughter and
tears; picture of a score of circus
thrills and, in fact, you see a complete
circus performance on the screen. The
most amazing of all the scenes is the
burning of the main tent during the
evening performance and the wild STAN
pede of the audience. Everett Shinn,
the famous artist, designed the settings,
and Margaret Mayo, the author, per-
sonally aided Charles Koran, the direct
or of the picture in his work. Adv

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington. This years Govern
ment wheat price was continued ~
effect for the 1919 crop by President
Wilson in proclamation fixing Sz'@o
as minimum price at primary mar
lets. Winter wheat will be SOLD at
this price, but the President accom-
panied his proclamation with state
ment, giving notice that before the
harvest of next spring he will appoint
a commission to report on increased
cost of farm labor and supplies TO-
guide him in determining whether
there shall be an advance in price TOT
the spring crop. Such an advance II
given, the President said, will apply
only to producers who by that tlme
have marketed their 1918 production'
The possibility of peace before the
middle of 1920 was touched upon in
the Presidents statement in a0nnec-
ton with the risk that by guaranteeing
wheat prices the Government might
lose as much as half a billion dollars
if Europe should find it's supplies avail
able from the Southern Hemisphere.
The Presidents memorandum says:
Gin issuing the Governments guar
antee of the same price for the 1919
wheat crop that was guaranteed FOR
the 1918 crop, wish it to be under
stood that in the spring~of 1919 ! VIII
appoint DISTINGUISHED commission
who will secure for me the facts by
that time disclosed as to the increased
cost of farm labor and supplies, using
the three-year pre-war average prices
of wheat, of labor and of supply costs
as a basis. and that from this infor-
nation I shall determine. whether
there should be an increase in price
above the present level, and, ii so,
what advance, in order to maintain
for the farmer a good return. Should
it then appear that an increase is de-
served over the present guarantee
however, it will be applied only to
those who have by next harvest al
ready marketed their 1918 wheat. IL
is the desire and intention of all de-
partments of the Administration to
give to the wheat-grower q fair ana
stimulated return in order that the
present acreage in wheat be main
tanned"
