TO SECURE TESTIMONY.
Special Agent Goes to Alaska in
Brady rlatter.


Washington, June IA special
agent Of the interior department, espe-
cially selected on account of his expe-
rience and proved integrity, has left
Washington for Alaska to make an in
vestigation Of the charges against Gov.
Brady, the conduct of the reindeer in
dustry and the public school system.
Secretary Hitchcock refused to give
the name Of the special commissioner
for publication, for, the secretary says,
he does not believe in hunting par
tridges with brass band.
Mr.. Hitchcock has believed for a
long time that the reindeer industry
and the public school system outside OF
incorporated towns, were not being
conducted in businesslike manner,
and he is determined to know the
truth The report OF the special agent
on these questions will have q strong
influence on the secretary's recon-
mendations to CONGRESS next winter.
President Roosevelt wishes to give
Gov. Brady the benefit of a ssfair
trial" before taking action on the
charges made against him some weeks
ago. It is admitted that the governor
committed an indiscretion, to say the
least. when he allowed his name TO be
90 prominently connected with the %
called Reynolds Alaska Development
Company. At tho Same time the prs
ident wishes to have tho testimony Of
some OF the people Of the territory on
this matter and other complaints
against tho governor before taking 40
tton.

"The course Of developments, which
have proved more powerful than the

to this result. The union, entered up
on in 1914, has from the first hour
been differently interpreted by the two

and letter. Efforts have been made
on the Swedish side to extend the uuion
and on the Norwegian side to conlne
it to the limit laid down by the act OF

"The difference Of principle in the

The pledge to resign on being seated
he characterized as one which an
honest man would rather die than

is said, for the purpose of sounding
the public. They claim that the in

coffee if encouraged by the imposi-

the product from other countries.
