mayor of New York. out of office and he should have been thrown out long ago. but Roosevelt is afraid to do it. If it was Teddy he would have thrown him out long ago.
 There is a regular fight on in the Democratic party. Al Smith is the head of the Tammany wing of the Democratic party and he is the greatest man in the Dem ocratic party. north or south. He has courage and ability, but there is another element and Al Smith is not at the head of it. Tammany is not confined to the state of New York alone. Tammany con trols the Democratic party in Massachusetts, New Jersey. Rhode Island and Connecticut. The oth- CT element is the Hearst News papers. Hearst and his great newspapers have fought Al Smith and Tammany right along. McAdoo battled Smith in the Madison Square Garden convention eight years ago, until they were all ex- hausted. And he and Hearst have fought Al Smith and beat him at slick politics. If you noticed in the paper tonight, Smith refused to attend a luncheon at which Roose- welt was present. Al Smith won't see him and Tammany won't see him. There is bad blood between Tammany and the Hearst news papers and the Democratic party is going to be defeated by it's own internal fights, and we are going to help. of course. And Al Smith is going to lead the fight that is going to beat them.
 MT. Hoover is gaining strength in this country every day. Eight months ago Hoover could not have
 been elected but this session in Congress demonstrated that the Democrats had no out for this depression in which the United States has found itself. They had no constructive idea Or ideas of how to relieve this depression. Hoover did and he made them in the consideration of the safety of the country. Congress passed the laws that he demanded and his power and influence is tremendous If you will read your own local paper or any other paper you will discover that employment Is stead lily increasing. Factories are being opened every day and the whole country is now on the road to prosperity again. But MT. Hoover |is going to see that 1t is done. ac- cording to the principles which he advocated. The country is again ready to support MT. Hoover land we, are not going to have 2 democratic persident in Washing. ton. Bet on 1t. folks, get odds if Iyou can. If you can't, take even money. We have them skinned sure. Al Smith Is going to hang their hide on the fence. But we are going to give him a little as. sistance.
 Now, have friend. Tony Dimond, whom I have known a good many years and he came over here to Fairbanks last spring, came over here with Tom and the other boys and they held meet
 ing over here. They were going to have a Democratic convention but George Grigsby announced that he wasn't going to attend the con vention and Zeigler said he wasn't t going to attend the convention. and wasn't going to have anything to do with it. Anyway, when the time came for the primaries they gave Tony a plurality vote and Tony was nominated. Now Tony is pretty shrewd fellow. Right now he is flying around in an airplane. That airplane is owned by Mir. W E Dunkle, and do you know who MT. Dunkle is? We'll, he owns part of the big interests of the Kennecott Corporation and has other copper interests in the
 United States. He is associated with the Guggenheim interests and it is his own company that owns this plane. I don't know just what it costs to run that airplane a day, but I would esti- mate that it costs about S1O0.00 a day, somewhere's from s5O.OO to $1OO.OO a day. And he has an- nounced that he is going to visit every part of Alaska where there are six voters. We'll, he will be going for about six years. I think that now he is down in the Bristol
 Bay area, but now, who is put
 ting up the money to run that airplane? Who is putting up the
 one hundred dollars day fol that airplane and for the broad
 casting from Anchorage? Do you
 know who is putting up that mon l. ey? I suspect I know and maybe ! it is only suspicion.
 Do you know Tom Donohoe!
