thankful for small lfavors; we have the right, yet, to protest against the imposition of unconstitu tional taxation, and we arc permitted to denounce official rascality, even though our denunciations reach ears that are dull of hearing.
 One of the many defects of the Alaska code is that section which authorizes the judges of the district courts to appoint commissioners and ex-oflicio cordcrs. Abuses of no small magnitude grow out of this provision of the code. The commissioners too frequently become mere creatures of the appointing poser and the only real purposes they subserve is to look after their joint interests for however it may be in the other judicial divisions. we know that in this one to the appointment of commissioners and re- corders very often a string is attached We submit that commissioners and recorders for the various dis trc:s should be elected by the bona de residents of these precincts If this done the dissatisfaction and dstrust which now surround some of the com missoners in this section would not exist.

Tltf JUDICIAL SITUATION IN NOME.

There is we'll defined belief, both in Nome and efsewhere that Judge WIckersham, of the third judi chsl division will be transferred to Nome for the coming winter at least. Mayor Giese, who recent, interviewed President Mckinley and pointed out the need of judge here during the winter, shares the belief Judge Wickersham stated his intention of visiting lis former home in Tacoma he had gotten f rough with the term of court at Dutch Hnrbor It is therefore. entirely reasonable to sup pose that he may be directed to come to Nome. Judge Moves may think that he wE be able to evade the process of the circuit court of appeals which has cited him to appear October II and. show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of that court but he will not be able to do so. We do not believe that any political "pul' that he may have will save him. He is preparing his way, however, in a desperate effort to himself He began the ex- planatory process ill Nome when his organ, the News published the first installment of alleged judicial cleanliness. This has been followed by an enlarged and more specific declaration of judicial piety and virtue. Judge Moves has told his story often that he has it down pat, and the farther away from Nome he gets the al resco decorations he adds to it The Seattle Times of August 24 is constrained to remark:
 Judge Moves tells mighty good story-from his standpoint-and for his own sake we hope he'll be able to make the circuit court of San Francisco be- ieve it. But if he does then there about 10000 of the biggest liars between San Francisco and Cape Nome who have lived in modern times. Moreover ii Judge Moves makes the circuit court believe the story which he caused to be published in the PostIntell sencer yesterday morning. then the circuit court ought to apologize to old Alex Mckenzie for the -ageous judgment which it found against him.
 For the information of the Times we will say thai there 10000 of the biggest liars between Sar Francisco and Cape Nome who have lived in modern times" There few, however, but the kingpir of the bunch is not now in Nome. He has acquired the art of lying to perfection, and is pursuing il "where it will do the most good'

SHAtI Vt BE REPRESENTED?

It is announced that the postoffice department has interdicted the carrying of newspaper mail down the Yukon river, though frst-class postage be paid upon it. This is 10 be regretted, but as much might have been expected. Our mail facilities in the winter have been of the best and it has onl3 been by chance that newspaper found it's way to Nome even when tightly sealed in an envelope with abundance of stamps. Letters which looked "suspicious to the eageeyed postoice officials have been held up, on the theory that they contained newspaper clippings But they came in the follow ing spring, months after they mailed.
 It seems to that the government owes us a newspaper mail service during the winter months That recommendations with this in view have been made we know; that they will be acted upon is an entirely different matter.
 In connection with this phase of the question it may not be amss to ask if this section of Alaska will have anybody in Washington this winter to enlighten congress and the administration to a few of our needs. Last winter we had several delegates in Washington, but it looks as if would not have one the coming winter The man who represents Alaska in Washington has unthankul task be- fore him. and there is plenty of work to do. Nome should have delegate there during the session of Congress. We need amendments to Alaskan laws; e need better mail facilities and the delegate to rep resent should be a man who is thoroughly con- versant with our needs and existing conditions.

AIR SHIPS AND THE LIKE. .

We do not know that it will ever be found neces. sary to construct ice boat for the purpose of navigating Berng in winter. The Russian ice breaker, which by the way were patterned after the iceboats used the Detroit river and the great lakes, may rot from disuse all because of the in ventions of couple of Frcnchmen, one of whom it is alleged, Las constructed balloon which he con- trols ship is controlled at sea- the other has per fected submarine boat, and has proved that cheap little cookie shell be directed with absolute precision beneath the water and can destroy an iron clad. Full details of the inventions have not yet come to hand, but that they what is claimed is vouched for by several scientific and mechanical gentlemen, who have have examined them.
 Therefore, if the air be so easily navigated and if small boat can go anywhere it pleases its captain to direct it and remain under water for an indefinite length of time, during the winter season all we on Berng coast will have to do will be to keep several acres of water clear of ice out in the roadstead and the submarine boats easily make dash from Dutch Harhor to Nome beneath the ice pack of the sea- Or by the air route, in air ship Seattle or San Francisco may be reached in few hours, while the trip from Nome to Sl. Petersburg or Paris will be only question of few days.
 Seriously speaking, the conquest of the upper air and the lower waters is only question of tme The dreams of Darius Green, the Yankee inventor of the first flying machine may yet be realized; the time may come when the navies of the world will be back numbers, and the art of war may be entirely revolutionzed by the appearance of the air ships But by that time. perhaps the world will have be- highly civilized that nation will not lift up

local contemporary is very much worried be- cause it fears that an ordinance may be passed by the city council authorizing the mayor to appoint councilman to any vacancy that may exist, thus taking away from the people the altogether blessed privilege of voting for the proper kind of man." Personally, very little whether a councilman be appointed by the mayor or elected by the people. We do not apprehend that the people would break their necks in their eagerness to get to the polls; neither do we think that Mayor Gese, if authorized 10 do go, would appoint man unfit for the position AS matter of fact, we inclined to think under present conditions, the mayor would have to lasso man in order to appoint him, for We do not think that there are many good citzeng anxious to be known of the city fathers.

The crest of the recent rise in cereals

Was Fatally Burned.

Tacoma, Wash, Dec. ia sad acct
dent occurred about two miles from Span
away. The little 6 months old child Of
Carl Swaney had been placed in high
chair before an open fireplace and scarf
fastened around it to keep it from falling
from the chair.
Shortly afterwards a scream of agony
from the little one attracted the mother :
attention and she turned around to see
the child with its face in the fire. The
infant was quickly rescued by the agon-
lied mother, but the child was beyond
the reach OF medical assistance. The
little sufferer fingered for couple OF
hours and then passed away. The face
and neck were horribly burned.
