Literary Notes
Women an Travellers.

+ AS the world grows smaller the
number of women travellers grows
great. This is merely another form
OF saying that the greater security,
economy and rapidity of travel hatc
opened new opportunities for ambitious
women. At the present time there are
the travelling companion, the courier,
the war correspondent, the foreign cor
respondent, the commercial traveller,
the missionary, and the student, who,
paradoxically enough, is usually a
teacher. I would leave out of con-
sideration the travelling companion, be,
cause she is an annex or attachment
to the traveller proper and is not a
traveller par Sc. I might also add the
women explorer, because in the past
ten years Mrs. Alice LIE Plongeon and
Miss Kingsley have won name and
fame in this field of activity.
Women are both fitted and untitled
for travel. They have less strength
and daring than men, on the other
hand, they have more. tact and great.
e. regard for the rights of others. In
many parts of the far East small mobs
of criminals are apt to attack the
stranger within their gates. When this
occurs, the male traveller usually gets
off better than the female. On the
other hand far greater source Of
trouble springs from the Wanton "
ignorant violation of native customs
and religious laws. Here men sin 50
times where women do -once.
Travel brings out the deep ethica!
difference between the two sexes. In
London have often noticed that the
average American gentleman makes
u lie cline for the famous inns, pubs and
music halls, while the average Ameri.
can woman goes to Westminster, ST
Pauls and the Tower of London. In
Paris the former patronizes the cafe
cbantant and the Moulin Rouge, and
the latter the Louvre, Notre Dame, the
Madeleine and the Hotel des Invalides
s. To be successful traveller demands
nothing more than the small virtues =
forethought, common sense. patience
and, it may be, little resignation. :

Lesliets Popular Monthly for June.

SATU RDAI. MARCH II lSa9.
All Games Must Be Run On
 The Square.

In another column we publish the amount which Court Com missioner Fred PageTustin is allowed, by law, to charge for recording mining locations, or other legal documents, required by law to be recorded, and the penalty for overcharging in the collection of fees for recording.
 The law is very emphatic on the point of fees, and according to the law the charge should never exceed fifty cents, and generally should be under forty cents. Any amount charged over the fees allowed by law is a violation of the law, and is punishable by imprisonment.
 Court Commissioner Tustin stated this week to a represen- pative of the Journal, that he was charging S2.O0 forrecording mining locations. This is an admission of the fact that he is openly violating the law and laying himself liable to impris- onment, and also placing his bondsmen in a position where they are liable to be sued for damages. This is not, however, the greatest danger which his bondsmen are running, for in every case where Commissioner Tustln imprisons man imprOp- erly, as in the case of Harry Nelson, his bondsmen are liable for any amount, up to the total of the bond, which jury may decide is sufficient compensation to man falsely imprisoned. It will be a surprise to many of our citizens when they know the ex- tent to which "Grafting' is car ried on in the Court House in Wrangel. Scarcely an instru- ment is filed where the "Graft" does not appear in the shape of illegal fees, and not ouly there but in criminal cases. A bill of costs amounting to as much as twenty five dollars is charged in cases where the legal bill of costs should not exceed five dollars. The difference is forced on poor unfortunates for what? It is the "Graft" of a man sworn to obey the law yet openly a law breaker. Space will not permit us to do the matter jus tice in this issue but the town is getting marmer and next week we will give the rHhlic more food for-thought.

"EDITOK ARMENT," NIT!

1no fOllOn cOnulllOllS cAlSulnS in the Customs Department in Alaska, has excited the disgust of all law abiding citizens; and frequent efforts have been made without success to weed out the corrupt gang which now infests our Customs Department. As compared with this gang of grafters, who under the guise of law, collect illegal fees, and extort "Blood Money from so called law breakers, "Soapy Smith was a prince, who car ried on his nefarious business openly, without pretense of jus tice. It was the rule with
 "Soapy' as it is with the Gus
 tom House "Grafters,' never to overlook d bet, and never was a people more bowed down under a weight of tyranical rule, than this people of Alaska, under the present Government of this ter
 ritory. The gang of blood suck
 ing politicians, who are placed over the people of Alaska to govern have ruled with a heavy hand, and the people have been compelled to submit in order to avoid a greater expense in the way of Costs where the cases have been brought before Court Commissioners It is true that in most cases, an appeal could be taken to the District Court, but a person thinking of assert ing his ri ghts, has, staring him in the face the expense of such a procedure. There is only one steamer running from Wrangel, making two trips each month, and the attorney fees, cost of transportation for attor ney and witnesses, and expense in Sitka, together with the un- certainty of the result of trial in Sitla, makes it a much cheaper matter, to continue paying tri- l bute to the "GrafterS' to whom justice is unknown.
 1 J. w. lvey the Collector of Customs for the district of Alaska, is a man whose methods are too we'll known, to require extended mention Ivey stated in Seattle, that he had been compelled m Wrangel, to face, single handed and alone, a gang of 15O law breakers, each armed with winchester; an infamous lie without a semblance of truth.
 It is a we'll known fact that there are more law breakers un- der Ivey's supervision than a. mOng all the rest of the inhab- itants of Alaska. J. A. Arment, Ivey's First Lieutenant in Wran- gel, is man entirely devoid of any sense of manhood. He has tried hard to obtain control of the Press, of this City in order, presumably, to prevent his act ions becoming public property, but. thanks to d sense of iuStice on the part of some of our citi- zens, he failed. The thought of "Editor Arment" was too much. The Freedom of the Press is unrestrained, and the war began by the "Grafters' against the voice of the people will fail of any effect. The American peo- pie are noted above everything for possessing spirit of fair ness, and while "Grafters" may from time to time appear to be in the ascendency, Uncle Sam's
