The Alaska prospector., 1905-02-02
Want X Recorder.

Considerable disappointment is felt by the citizens of Sunrise and Hope on learning that Judge Wick srsham will not grant their petition for the appointment of q commis- sioner and Fe, order for their sec tien.
 It is difficult to understand why the honorable judge takes his stand. It certainly cannot be that he is of the opinion that the inter ssts do not justify the appointment of d commissioner and recorder, as i: is well known fact that this section is rapidly advancing to the to the front. and there is more act ual mining operations, more ma ehincry, and more money invested in mining than any other place un the entire Kenai peninsula. and to deprive this section of commis. s0ner and all its mining records, i, unwarranted anl unjust.
 Judge Brown, of the First divis- ion, appointed a commissioner for Sunrise four years ago. when the interests and population were far below what 1t Is at the present time. After this section became embraced m the Third di ision, II. II. Hildreth was appointed com missioner, on the the statemcnt of facts as set forth in a petition ad- dressed to the Hon. James Wicker shan thus establishing prece- dent that this section was entitled to a commissioner and recorder.
 With this condition oi affairs the people were we'll satisfied, although the officials here were very unpop- ular, but 1t was of short duration. The Alaska Central Railway com mehced operations at Seward, em- p.oying several hdndred men, be- sides business enterprises starting up each day, and the population increasing rapidly, Seward Was justly in need of commissioner and marshal, and the officials from this section moved their office to Seward, together with the mining records of this district, which have been on file here for the past eight years. This has caused no little dissatisfaction throughout the up- per end of Cook inlet, and Il peti- tion was forwarded to Judge Wick ersham praying for re-divisIon of tn. Cook inlet precinct, and the appointment of commissioner and recorder. but without receiving the relief asked for. Surely the precinct is large enough to he di- vided, and where the public inter- est justify and request that they have commissioner and recorder ii should lot be denied them.

made by Bray. The court said that u
would take judicial notice of the exist

made As to the claim that it did not
appear that any money or thing Of va
lue had been procured by reason of the
alleged false statements, the court said
that the Onense was making the state
ments themselves, an dthat il was not
necessary to show that anything had
been procured thereby. In answer to
the demurrer on the ground that the
defendant was not shown TO have
known the statements were false when
he made them, as is alleged, the court
held that under the circumstances this
was presumed.

COON finally left Robertsons office DIFF
fering with Robertson both as to the
propriety Of the proposed transfers by
! Hustace. and as to the legal possibility
/ OF compelling contributions. At a sub
scquent discussion the same results Oc-
Cured. Some weeks later Robertson
said he saw a deed by Hustace on the
desk Of his clerk. He did not connect IL
with the Kamalo proposition at the
. time. It had been prepared by his part
ner A. A. Wilder, with whom he had
not discussed the proposition.

escape payment asked Magoon.
ct was not 50 much escaping lidbil-
ity as your idea that Hustace had paid

Sinkins--Northwest Passage Made

The chief feature OF the Armstrong in

been the statement OF Thomas f. Ryan,
owner OF a majority Of the stock OF the

the tinancier and railroad magnate, to let
him in on the deal, and vas finally
threatened by him. II was intimated that
unless he yielded, political pressure would
be brought to bear against the Equits BILE.
Hartman is close to the New York Re-
publican chine. Senator Depew has
resigned as director in the Equitable
without assigning any reason, and George
W. Perkins is out of the Mutual Life. 1t
is believed that Charles A. Peabody Will
be the new president OF the Mutual Life,
