jury composed OF the following per-
sons; DR.. f. 5. Hand, J. NJ. ThrallS,
g. F. Martin, A. NJ. Laux, Turne

w land legend or border story
is the account of the first contrac
marriage in the interior of Alaska,
as narrated by "Windy Jim" bod
son, who was present and witnessed
the unique ceremony.
1t was on the banks of the Dali
river, small stream which flows in
to the Yukon, near fort Hamlln. A
young man, ellis by name, accom-
panied by Aggie Dalton, charming
maiden with whom he was in love,
had set out from the mouth of Dali
river to 90 across the mountainous
divide into the Koyukuk Valley.
AS they started up the Dali they
met Dodson, and in the course OF
conversation it developed that the
young people were anxious to get
married, but in that wilderness there
was small chance Of finding either
priest or magistrate to perform the
ceremony.

knot" said Dodson, and he lives
only a few miles from here. His
name is Joe Durant, but everybody
knows him by the nickname of
French Joe,
To yearning hearts and youthful
vigor few miles in that vast soil
tude was as nothing, and they were
soon at Durant's place. Dodson
went with them as guide and wit
ness. The spot was one just fit for
such romantic nuptials 1t was on
a wllu, mountainous slope, by the
side of lake, and under the shelter
of a friendly tree whose evergreen
branches defed the chill November
winds.

| AWRENCE JOUkNALi In his
l. speech at St. Louis, William
J. Bryan said: The man who
fights the trust of commerce is quite
as brave as a man who swlmS river
or climps San Juan hill, )" and then
no doubt Mr.. Bryan remarked sotto
voice, "of whom |, Funston and
Roosevelt are which" Mr.. Bryan
can in no way cheaper himsel more
than by the use of such expressions.
They are unworthy Of him, unwor-
thy of any man who aspires to pub
lie honors, The veriest coward,
the most vicious demagogue, the
man without principle AMI without
conscience may and no doubt will,
fight the trusts, and thousands of
honest, upright, Conscientious men
will also fight them; such a fight re
qulres no courage, moral or physical.
The bastard and the demagogue may
fight in the battle mentioned by Mr..
Bryan in order to impose upon the
people and secure office under false
pretense. 1t is an insult to men who
mounted the hell swept hill of San
Juan or followed the brave Funston
across the river whose surface was
plowed with death dealing missiles,
to compare them with the demagog-
ues who rants on the platform against
the power of wealth. The only ex-
cute for such an utterance on the
part of Mr.. Bryan is that he has
tackled the trusts, and didn't go up
against the Spaniards or Fllipinos.
