Politics Is Local

What appears above is no at- tempt to support or deny the just ice of the arguments made against smith. It is an attempt solely to show how a lot of seemingly unre- lated facts have brought about
 lther surprising result.
 It all emphasizes again that it is the little rills of political action far back in unSung precincts which 20 to make up the mighty stream of national political action.
 In it's last essence all politics is local politics, and every ward and township politician is looking for the combination which will help him at home.

EIGHTY OUNCES OF NUGGETS A|VD DUST
 CACHED IN SIBERIA LOCAL MAN TELLS OF TROUB- LESOME TIMES AND cos
 SACK RAIDS
Buried treaSure!

Buried treasure!
 What if we had all the gold and jewels hidden away under times of stress?
 But this time it is not pirate loot, or the levies of an invading army of which we speak. It is a mere matter of $25,000 or such a matter, and all is not buried in one spot.
 Hence some day a Bolshevik will be Sniping along the banks of Bear Creek on St. Nicholas Bay, Ram chatka. or more perfectly localized as being in the Anadir section of Siberian Russia. He will sink his shovel into a soft spot and thru his Whiskers he will see something which makes tn m stand out straight.
 This will be Ole Onsen's little cache of 80 ounces of nuggets and dust. Ole is now in Seward, and will go shares or even give the cache away to anyone who can lift it.
 Along with Ole's cache are some Is others, all carrying more or less. Thus, here is a chance for an ad- venturCuS individual with devilish cunning and resource to solve his depression problem and emerge rich.
 It was back in 1914, before the World War put the universe out of plumb, that Ole; with Is other ar gOnauts of Ncnle, chartered the nlotorship Arctic to land them in St. Nicholas Bay From time to time rumors had been floating out that there were rich, shallow dig gings to be had.
 On arrival they found that the thing had not been exaggerated. Fact was, that despite the restric- tions imposed by the Czarist re- ginle through Cossacks, a man could snipe out from S15 to S2O a day with a rocker or Long Tom. All efforts to install sluice boxes or hydraulics were drowned upon by a husky CoSsack with about six feet of bull whip and a breast full of cartridges, not to mention what else he carried in the form of of- fense and defense.
