That Will Shortly Leave
 For fife Outside
WITH TALES OF WOE
Those Who Will. It is Said, AC. company Judge Moore --The
 Object Of tie Journey.

The proposed trip of .udgc Moore to the outside, it would seem. ii reports are to be believed, is to be Of farreach- ing importance to the judge. l. is al- 3ged that e has stated shat-he will not return to Nome unless he can secure the appointment of United States marshal to his liking.
 It is no secret that there is no love lost between the judge of the cotit and the marshal, and the former has made 1t plainly apparent whenever an oppol- tunity occurred. Indeed, il iS alleged that the judge come to Nome with q pre,eonceiyed prejudice agitnst the ma, ,$lal, and the few "frient with whom he has surrounded himself would seem to bear out the stEement.
 It may, therefore, be taken for grant ed that when the judge reaches Seattle he will lose no time in getting to Wash .inGton, where he may tell his tale of roe. '' Just what il Is. Of course. no one hut himself knows, or perhaps. the few in his immediate cCuiid.nccs There is 0 strange story afcas th6se days in thi,, connect ion. and it is here l lI Ou lOI " IlIl Il !S htItI. IL IN IO l, ;he effect that when Judge Moore sails for the outside he will be accompanied by Geo. V. Borchseniuo, the present clerk of the court. who, it is alleged. aspires to the marsha lship of this judi rial division. Should he succeed. very unlikely hypothesis, however. II. G. Steel is slated to succeed Borchse- nius as clerk. Thus will there then be u happy reunited family, although the bed will be made of strange bedtellows. which, however, only goes to show that politics is strange and uncertain quantity. It was Steel, ii may be re- IneMbered, that succeeded in busting Borchsenius from his present iposition in the sumner Of 1901, through the in Ihence of Alexander Mckenzie. But when Judge Moves had been depOstG and debased, Clerk Steel showed that he was all right as time-server by hiring David King to write that nOtO- rlous article concerning the gavel which rupped the signals of loot and re- prsa1." Therefore he became solid by reason of treachery.
 In order to bring all this about, Steel will also accompany the judge and Clerk Borchsenius and lend his ''in- . aooence" to bring about the desired end. It is also related that Stenogra- pher Me Bride will be of the party, as will also Dave King, who will also act as bodysuard. IL is stated, however, that all is not well between Grand Vizier Borchsenius and the judges 'stenographcr, and it is intimated that the official head of the latter does not set securely on his shoulders.
 The whirligig of time truly brings many changes: new alignments are made. but in the 'lining up" it must be confessed that the result too ire Quently is mixture that defes all analysis.
 But what if these "best laid plans" should gang agley." to use Il phrase from Bobby Burns. The heartburn ings and the disappointments will be heartrending, and it is solemnly alleg- cd in that case, Nome shall know Judge Moore mo more, forever.' It is an appalling contemplation indeed, for in that case, the presumption is that Mir. Borchsenius will not be United States marshal nor Mir. Steel secure the man. tie of the present clerk.
 In all this stands out the central idea that the average man. or the man be- low the average having once fed at the government crib, acquires hun gering and thirsting that only continued feeding at the same manager will satisfy.
 Since the above was put in type it is learned that neither Mcbride nor King Will accompany ''his honor" to the outside. King, it is said, declined the proffered honor and other reasons com pei Mcbride to remain in Nome for q season.
