HOOVERI(M%

The Republican Administration
makes no claim to credit which
belongs to the enterprise. energy
and character of a great people.
1t can rightfully claim, however,
that this great mass of people
would not have made progress, nor
would they continue to make prog
gress in an atmosphere poisoned by
unwise or shifting governmental
policies.
No one can contemplate the past
and the future of our country with
out an earnest prayer that we shall
maintain at all times the refresh
ing force of a strong farm popu'2'
ton in our national life.
The world situation is a sum
mons to the forces of orderly. con
structiVe progress.

A tax levy of two per cent was levied which will net the city s2O,12443, which will be used for school and municipal purposes.
 UP TO THE TIME of going to press we had not heard whether Noel Wien had hoped oil from Fairbanks enroute to Nome. The only information that we have Is that they asked for weather condi- tions this morning. However, we are of the opinion that the plane is on it's way with the Christmas mail, but owing to the fact that he is delivering mail at Ruby, Nu- lato, Unalakleet and Nome. the plane can hardly be expected to arrive here before Sunday after noon.
