The completion of the telegraph
line gives the people of Valdez and
the Copper river country COM
munication with all the civilized
world. This is IA grand thing and
great convenience for tTfis country.
People will feel more contented to
live here now, as in Il few moments
time they can communicate with
friends in any part of the world,
instead of its taking weeks and
months as heretofore. Every line
of business will feel an impetus
by the completion of the telegraph
line. We, the people of this coun-
try have cause to rejoice and con-
gratulate ourselves on the compile
ton of this line, and we feel certain
that every citizen appreciates the
action of the government in build
ing it. 1t is now hoped that the
line to Nome may be speedily
completed and then the different
sections of this great district will
be more closely united.

Attack on Governor Brady.

Donald Fletcher, of the Seattle

Congress of Aug. 20, made a sem
sational attack upon Gov. John G..
Brady, in which he accused the
Governor of being an exponent of
oppression and repression and an
agent of the large companies in
Alaska.
Gov. Brady was warmly defended
by F. b. Thurber, of New York,
who was private secretary to Presi-
dent Cleveland during his second
term. He presented resolutions
demanding an investigation of the
charges, but the vote on the resolu-
tions was deferred.

NEWS FROM The COURTS
JUDGE CARTER DECIDES AGAINST
THE TRANSFER COMPANIES.
They Must Pay Licenses on Their We
hicIes-Grand Jury Returns Num-
Der of Indictments.

Judge Carter. Of the Superior Court, yes
terday held that the city ordinances of 1880
and 1893, the former imposing a license on
p~ublio-used vehicles and the latter on the
vehicles themselves, were legal and that
the one did not invalidate the other. He
held that both ordinances are the exercise
Of the police power, rather than of a taxing
power. The first ordinance, he said, pro-
vides for a license on the business and the
second is for the use of the vehicles on the
streets. The decision was in the suit of the
city against the Hogan Transfer Company,
which refused to pay both licenses. Nearly
all the transfer men in the city were await
ing the decision before paying the licenses.
Last year they refused, and City Controller
Breunig and Deputy Prosecutor Whallon
will see that the money is collected this
year, as well as last year.

sion, and Manager Wheeler, learning or the
circumstance, Informed the prison board at
Michiga City. and Robinson was taken
back TO the p-enitentiary. Mrs. Joliey then
returned TO Indianapolis, and a short time
later brought suit against her first husband

OF the case Judge McMaster said the pros
ecutor should see 10 it that indictments
were brought against Mrs. Jolley for big
amy and perjury. The grand jury attempt
ed 10 ind Mrs. Jolley and get her deposit
ton. but she had left the city and cannot
now be found.
