Judge WiCkersham Will Open
 It on October 7.
IS EXPECTED SOON
The Grand Jury and One of the Petit
 Jurors Return-The Hardy Murder Trial Was About to Close When Juror Left Officials to Arrive Soon.

A term of the district court will com mence' in Nome on Monday morning, October :, at 10 o'clock, Judge James Wickersham. of the Third judicial di- vision, presiding.
 Notices to this effect were posted Saturday afternoon, Sept. !, having been received by the clerk of the court on the transport Seward, which arrived Friday evening from Unalaska. On hoard the Seward were the members of the grand jury taken from Nome with Judge Wickersham when he went to Unalaska to hold court.
 Judge Wickersham, United States Marshal Richards and the other off cials are expected to reach Nome, probably on the St. Paul. The grand jury finished their labors and were per- mitted to return, with the exception of C. H. Hawkins, who remained as court stenographer. They were: C.. D. Fol ger, l.. w. Burrows, C.. H. Hawkins, Charles F. Kelly, E. F. Bertram, Geo. A. Shea, D. R. Dwyer, Alex. Campbell, T. w. Hawkins, H. H. Dunbar, w. H. McCurdy, k. D. Shelly, w. H. Murphy, H. l.. Jatfe, Edward Lee, Fred Ander- son.
 The grand jury returned two indict- ments, cue against Fred Hardy for the murder of Con- and Florence Sullivan a0d, P.J !. Rooney, last June, on Unims1x island; the other was against a native named George Yatsnmenotf, charged with wife murder.
 The grand jury, in their report, scored United States Commissioner Whipple, the gentleman whose fires of patriotism burn so brightly. He is charged with conducting his office in "careless, corrupt and dishonest man. ner, seeking rather to gain emoluments from his office by causing persons to be arrested on trivial and groundless causes rather than to dispense and ad minister justice. The jury also declare that Whipple's records are false and incorrect; that he had taxed witness fees for persons who were never in at- tendance, collecting the fees from the . persons against whom judgment was rendered and converting the same to his own use. WhlppIe Is also charged with having an able lieutenant in ras- cality in the person of Special Officer" Sullivan, who levied blackmail right | and left. The jury recommended Whipple's dismissal from office.
 The officers of the Manning are com mended for their service4 m procuring testimony and witnesses against the alleged murderer of the Sullivan broth CTS and Rooney, and Assistant District i Attorney McGlnn and Marshal Rich ards received the thanks of the jury for courtesies shown.
 One civil case was tried, that of the Mongollon Exploration Company vs. Stewart, Richards ct al., involving Glacier creek bench claim. The MOn- gollon people won. The case was tried without jury. The opinion of Judge Wickersham is published elsewhere ill this issue of the NUGGET.
 ]. II. kehoe, one of the petit jurors, who got himself excused, arrived on the Roanoke yesterday morning. When he left Unalaska the closing arguments were being made by Pc. Sullivan and

Knudson to proceed to Glacier creek and restrain all parties claiming an interest in the disputed ground from working it until such time as the cases can be settled by the proper legal au- thoritles. When Lieut.. Knudson reacis- ed Glacier creek and presented the or- der to Price and Tremper, they imme- diately took up the sluice boxes and the ground was put under guard.
 No further trouble is anticipated on Glacier by the military authorities, and as soon as proper understanding can be reached by all parties concerned, the guard will be withdrawn.

NEW JUDGE FOR ..---.- THIRD DISTRICT
~

A NEW Judge has been sent to - Eagle City. the official head quarters of the district judge for the third judicial division. The information was brought to Nome last night by w. F. Courtnay who left Eagle on Sept. 1. His informant was the deputy clerk of the court for the third division who informed him that tele- gram had been received there from Washington stating that a new judge had been appointed to take Judge Netherlands place, the latter having been transfer red to Nome. The deputy clerk expressed the fear that the Third district would lose Judge Wick ersham. While the information is meagre there is small doubt that the permanent transfer of Judge Wickersnam to this dis trict has been decided upon. Mr. Courtnay is we'll known resi- dent of the Yukon where he has resided since 1897 and every cid timer in the Yukon will vouch for his veracity. Mir. Courtnay formerly resided in Tacoma.

 There is more actual mining under way on Slate and Willow creeks than elsewhere in this section.

The present method OF .enslaving men
was invented 5000 years ago by Joseph
the Beautiful, according to the Bible.
This method is the same as is used N
tanning wild animals in our menageries-
1t is hunger.
The second screw is the enslavement
10y depriVing men OF land, and thus Of
supplies of food. Sometimes the en-
tire land belongs to the estate. as in
Turkey, when 1 per cent OF the crop
is taken for the benefit OF the state.
Sometimes the entire land belongs to
a small number of private persons
and labor is taxed for their benefit, as
in England; sometimes the greater or
the smaller part Of it belongs to small
and large landowners, as in Russia, in
Germany, in France. This screw OF
enslavement is lOOsened or tightened
according to the other screws. Thus,
in Russia, when personal enslaveInent
embraced the majority OF the working
men, enslavement by land was super
huOus, and the screw of personal slav-

cry was loosened only when the screws
of the land and thestax enslavement
had been frightened. Having assigned
all the. workingmep to various com
munities, having prohibited emigra-

having appropriated the land and dis

The third mcSs I'd Of enslavement-
through taxes--is also of long stand
ing, and in our iinle. with the diffu-
sion Of uniform tokens of money
throughout many states and with the
increase of the governmental power, it
has acquired q mighty power. We, in
Russia have passed within our own
memory through two forms Of slavery;
at the time Of the liberation OF the
slaves the landowners, although re-
tanning their lands, feared lest their
power over their seTfs should vanish;
