A pectacUIar instance of business revival is shown in

I 1 (.■ a great deal of importance on the very large over-sub
iption to the long term governments as showing a marked
and ignilkant change in the attitude of the banks and large

NO ALLIANCE with japan
The .Japanese were possible allies for Britain in the
Pacific only so long as they were the weaker party. This
was their position when the old Anglo-Jnpnneso alliance was
made in 1992. '
Toda% the Japanese 'dominate the Pacific. If we bound
ourselves up with them we should be the junior party, not
able to control the policy of the first, yet responsible for the
amduet of the chief pgMner. ,
* \usti alia, New ZetffcuYd, Canada and South Africa will
not join hands with Japan.
Such an alliance Would utterly alienate the United Stnt
c . Thu United States is the natural companion of the
British Empire in isolation from Europe’s wars. Any un
derstanding that we make for joint naval action must be
with them. —London Daily Express.
A QUESTION 01 NEW POLICIES
Mr. Borah and others who are appealing in the press for
a n organization appear to he talking about a change in per
onell. Only by implication, not by definition, ai*e they pro
posing new policies and principles. But what are to be the
new principles?
Until the reorganizers are more enlightened on this
point they are open to the challenge that they have no new
11 up of principles to offer. Furthermore, thewajm^open to
the suspicion, whether justified or not, that thwjf are primar
ily engaged in a contest for control of the panT machinery.

NOT A LOST CAUSE SONG
Sentimentalist who frequently cite “Dlxie’^as an in
stance of how lost causes tend to inspire great songs should
be interested in the fact that the South’s favorite anthem
celebrated a seventy-fifth birthday.
“Dixie” was first sung on September 19,1859. The place
was a theatre in New York. -The author hailed from Mount
Vernon, Ohio. ,
Hence, outside of the fact that “Dixie” was born before
t,he war and that it was composed in the North by a North
erner, the notion that a lost cause inspired “Dixie” is sub
stantially Correct. —Detroit News.
When you buy products manufactured or sold in Nome
you not only get merchandise you know to be good, but the
dollars you spend stay in Nome and continue to work for
you. '
When you want the best grade of merchandise at the
lowest price, read the ads in the Daily Nugget and buy at
home.
You should light the match of enthusiasm with the fire
of energy. The success of Nome will be in direct proportion
to the interest our citizens put into its development.
Economy is a fine thing when joined to wise expendi
ture.
Dollars spent in Nome are the dollars that come back to
you.
No doubt the announcement by a scientist that the whole
world ultimately will be crazy helped Huey Long on to his
decision to come out for President in 1936—Ohio Journal.

We thought all along that there must be a catch in these

Undoubtedly Herbert Hoover sincerely believes that
“the nation needs the Republican Party as never before",
but it is the nation that is so dog-goned skeptical about it.
