purposes. The others claim the
present tax burden on John Bar
leycorn is breaking his back, and
by Skyrocketing the average retail
price of legitimate liquor to
point where it makes bootlegging
highly lucrative it is killing the
goose from which Morgenthau
wants to squeeze the golden eggs.
With a 81 tax per gallon on
distilled liquor, and an average
tax of at least 81, the excise bur-
den alone is IS cents a quart. On
top of all this is SIS per gallon
import duty, making the total
taxes on every quart of imported
whisky 81 even.
Too much, say Mr.. Choate and
President Roosevelt; a 81 bounty
on every quart of liquor a boot
logger can smuggle into the coun-
try is entirely too attractive; it
has got to come down.

L n sorry that Cornelia Pinchot,
flaming haired wife of Pennsyl-
vania's Governor, did not go
through with the campaign to sue
coed her husband.
Mrs. Pinchot really had mapped
out a glorious campaign.
Some one in the FERA had sold
her on Upton Sinclair's EPIC
plan of taking over industry.
Mrs. PinchOt, however, needed a
slogan, something catchy like
EPIC, which would be on the tip
of every ones tongue. SO she
worked out the following:
Abolish Poverty in Pennsyl-
vania. Pinchot is Necessary"
This, Mrs. Pinchot felt, could be
effectively abbreviated as "A
PIPPIN."
A PIPPIN was expected to sweep
Pennsylvania.

thinks Of asking any favors of the
White House he had better post

Right now his rating with
Roosevelt is zero minus.
Frank is responsible for the loss
of Lloyd Garrison, who as chair
man of the national labor rela-
tons board not only has been one
OF its most brilliant and effective
administrators. but an ace card in
its dealings with labor.
During the three months the
talented grandson of the famous
abolitioniSt leader has headed the
NLRB he largely rehabilitated the
administrations badly mired labor
relations machinery.
The President was extremely
anxious to retain Garrison in his
official family. And Garrison was
equally eager 10 stay.
But Frank refused to release
hin.
F. D. r. personally appealed to
Frank several times by long dis
lance telephone. But whatever
Roosevelt said, Frank would make
no concession, not even to extend
ing GarriSon'S leave to the first
of the year, when congress re-
turns.
Because Frank always had made
a great show of advanced social
and economic views, liberals in
the inner administration group
are particularly indignant over his
refusal to cooperate with the
President.

MRS. MEREDITH is the de-
AVA scendant of English pio-
neers. Her grandfather, Newton
Claypool, came to the then will
derness of Indiana from Virginia
in 1916. The night that Mrs.
Meredith's father, Austin B. Clay
pool, was born, the Indians raided
the village.
Grandfather Claypool was elect
ed to the general assembly, and,
while living in indianapolis,
bought the now historic hosiery
where Abraham Lincoln stayed
when he spoke in the city.
Austin Claypool and Hannah
Petty Claypool had eight children,
the oldest of whom was Virginia.
She is said to have been always a
thoughtful, earnest child and her
memory still retains a vivid recol-
lection Of the Civil war and it's
terror.
She was married to Henry Clay
Meredith when she was 81.
During her lifetime, she has
seen the horizon of the farmer
grow gradually broader. Now, she
sees it becoming a clear landscape
through the efforts OF those who
have taken up her work, either di-
rectly or indirectly.
The world is beginning to catch
up, slowly, with Virginia Claypool
Meredith.

 A subject of great importance tc this Division was brought before the attention of the members. A program of legislation to be brot before the session of the Legisla- ture meeting the Second Monday in January, was ordered to be prepar- ed. At the same time a notice was ordered published in The Nome Daily Nugget calling the attention of this subject to the residents of the Second Division, and inviting their consideration and suggestions on proposed measures of legislation
 Two referendums were brought to vote at the meeting, from the Alaska Territorial Chamber of Com merce. The first one was on the establishment of airplane bases in Alaska, by the federal government. This was given a favorable report. The second one however, was re- jected. It proposed the creation of a highway patrol on territorial high ways, and the appropriation of mon ey to take care of same. It was deemed an unnecessary expense and not conducive to proper econ omic procedure, having little bear ing on the conditions, requiring any supervision on territorial highways such as patrol.
 Several other matters were dis cussed but no action taken and ar- engagements were made for another meeting as soon as the public re- ception of the legisla ion program became apparent. The meeting wss adjourned 70 be called again by the chair.

Russia Ships Ore Bearing Gold To
  The United States
FIVE THOUSAND TONS FROM SOVIET UNION REACHES
 TACOMA SHELTER

NEW YORK, Nov.-The Soviet Union is sending large quantities of gold bearing ore to American smelt- ing plants to increase it's purchasing power in the United States.
 Some 18,000 tons have already been consigned and many thousands more tons under present plans will be shipped in 1885.
 The gold will be turned over to the United States mint and the dol lars received will be deposited in New York banks.
 Ore at Tacoma.
 The Norwegian freighter Leise Maersk docked recently at Tacoma with 5000 tons for the smelter there Ten thousand more tons will reach the Tacoma Shelter within the next two or three weeks. Some 5000 tons were unloaded about ten days ago.
 The Soviet Government received about $1,700,00O for smelted gold.
 Last year the SovietRGovernment shipped about $l3,0OO 900 worth of such ore abroad, mostly to Germany and England, to be used in purcha- ses in those countries.
 First Shipments to U. S..
 This is the first time such ship ments have been made to this coun- try and was allowed by an order of Secretary of Treasury Morgenthau last January, lifting restrictions on assayed Soviet gold.
 The ore is nonferrous residue con- taining large quantities of gold. Al though the Soviet Union is now the second largest producer of gold, plants are not able to handle this slag and it is piled up to the extent of hundreds of thousands of tons in recent years.
 While Soviet officials refrained from discussing the gold ore ship ments to the United States, it is be-

No One Is Blamed For Death OfLate
 Albert A. Fink

What caused the death of Albert A. Fink, trapper, is unknown, but there is not sufficient evidence, to blame any person for the demise, is the conclusion that was reached recently by coroner's jury which was convened at Man1ey Hot Springs by United States Commis- stoned Gus A. Benson and which in- quired into his death, says the Fair banks News-Miner.
 Attorney and Witnesses { The inquest was attended by Un- ited States Attorney Ralph J. Riv- CTS for the Fourth Division and among the witnesses were Archie Moses and Titus Alexander, natives who found Fink's body; Dr. F. B. Gillespie of Fairbanks, who testified that the bones discovered by the natives were those of human being, and Pat O'Connor, Deputy United States marshal of this city, who gave evidence as to the condi- ton of Fink's last camping place.
 Fink disappeared in April, 1883, His camp and some of his bones were found the middle of this month in the Baker Valley close to the shore of Hootlalaqua river in the Manley Hot Springs district by Moses and Alexander. They report ed their discovery to Commissioner Benson, who at once communicated with the United States attorneys office. Thereupon Deputy Marshal O'Connor went to the place where the remains were.
 Fink's bedding and personal ef- fleets. including his rifle, were at the camp, but only few bones were in the vicinity and they were scattered
 The presumption is--and the Dep- uty Marshal expressed the opinion at the inquest that Fink died a natural death, and that his remains were attacked and carried away by wild animals.
 Dr. Gillespie testified that Fink
