A few days ago shorty" the h. dian who killed Carl Jahr, at Blind Slough, over on Wrangell Narrows, few months ago, vas found guilty of murder in the first degree, but his sentence was fixed at thirty years Imprisonment. This virtually shuts out two lives; and for what? Because q white man was so indiscreet as to furnish native liquor to make of him a de- mon more treacherous than a half famished cougar. It would seem that case of this kind should have the effect of putting stop to this wanton violation of the law.
 But it does not. Only last week white man, who should have known better, gave liquor to ludians and a murder was only ayerted by one sober native being present. The white man has been sent over the road for @ short time to ponder over his mistake; but some other fellow will take his place and the booze will be furnished just the same, and in a few days some oth- CT white man is sent over the road. It is high time that measures sui ficiently stringent to cause a due observance, were enacted. And it is not alone the white man that should be made to suffer; but the Indian who begs the Whiskey, gets drunk on it and makes beast of himself, should b5 equally guilty and made to suffer as severe a pen alty. Make the penitentiary of Alaska q place of hard labor in- stead of a place to rest up for 2 few months, and you will find men nore careful to avoid it. Let those aho are sent to jail for l few days 10 serve a sentence, be kept in close confinement, except when at work, and it will teach them that the jail is no "holiday picnic" concern and they will be more shy about getting there. The adoption of more severe measures for all con- aerned is the only thing that will put an end to the liquor traffic among the Indians.

FOUND OUT AT LAST.
 The following article from the Tacoma Daily Ledger, will no doubt be read with a great deal of satisfaction by those who have been made to suffer through the devil ish schemes of this arm of the fed eral court:
 Washington, D. C., Dee. 9.-W. J. Hills, clerk of the United States district court at Juneau, Alaska, is slated for dismissal, and his head will fall just as soon as Judge Roy al A Gunnison relieves Judge Mel vile C. Brown, whose resignation has been called for, \ great deal of the trouble that surrounds the court at Juneau is attributed to Hills; in fact he was far more cul- pablo in many ways than was judge Brown himself Hills belongs to that class of men who have given Alaska such an unsavory reputa- ton. In this country he would be styled "get-lich-quick artist" for his sole object in going to Alaska seems . have been to amass for tune, rte rdless of method.
 nne of the officials who inyesti- gated affairs at Juneau, tells an in- eident which throws light onto Hills operations, and stamps him as man unfit to hold government pllcs. Tae TreadwelI mine is lo- cats1 nearly opposide Juneau ard a.i- about 2 mile distant. Hills, >oon alter his arrival at Juneau, ;aund that quite cluster of small bo3ses and cottages had been erec- l'i in the vicinity of the mine on he mine property, and were oceu- f.ed by mine employees. The hous- ,s had been erected hy the miners themselves, the saving of a lifetime. The mine authorities had granted permi mission to the men to build their homes on the company's land, Hills, who apparently has no eoa- science, quickly saw an epportuni- ty to make a neat sum, SO he Wfote to the mine owners asking them to ront to him at nominol sum the use of the surface Of theirproperty at Treadwell. he agreeing not to engage in mining operations.
 The owners knowing nothing oi the situation, quickly assented.aad
 Hills psid his rent. He thereupen turned on the miners who had erected their own homes and e. handed of them excessive rent ior the use of tho land, which he then Controlled by permission of the mine owners. Those who could hot meet the paymente demanded were ejectod from their homes; and others paid usurious rates aud in time, by pressing the miners to the limit, Hills virtually became the awner of the small village by this high-handed method. Judge Brown it is charged, had full knowledge of the manner ir which his clerk robbed these miners of their homes vet raised no word of protest.
 The judge of the court has tie Appointment of the court clerk. Were it not for this fact, Hills head would have come off wien Marshal Richards of Nome lost his job. As it is the deeapitation will | be performed by Judge Gunnison.

driven four-fifths of the foreign adver-
Using from the columns Of the daily
and weekly newspapers of the state
it Is not likely that this pecuniary
loss to the newspapers will modify in
the least their support of these meas

view of the loss of hundreds and
thousands of dollars annually to the
newspapers in each county on &C
count OF loss of foreign patronage
from proprietary medicine and other
firms it is hoped that as a partial re-
compense the newspapers be given
increased local patronage of substau-

THE NEW TOWN,

What the Mannhaven journal Says of
the New Town Of Big Bend in
Mercer County.
Big Bend will be supplied with a
daily mail to arrive at the Big Bend
postoffice between 8 and 9 o'clock o.
m. until the $500" extension has been
completed. After that it will have a
daily and more efficient service, with
the mail arriving more than five hours
ahead Of the present schedule time.
The town will have the best of ferry
service with capacity of four teams
or forty head Of cattle. The ferry will
be in charge Of Captain Grant Marsh.
With this ferry in operation the town
will be connected with the $780, rail-
road (Which is about four and one
half miles away by an efficient stage
service.
Prof. Chandler of the q. S. Geologi-
cal Survey said: "You have the best
location for town west of the river"
Captain Grant Marsh, one of the old
est river men on the upper Missouri
says: with the railroad so close to
the river, and the best ferry landing
within 200 miles from either side of
Bismarck, it will be the business cross
ing for the railroad which will lead to
the opening up of all the territory
west and south of the Missouri river.

The Portland Oregonian gives North
Dakota the following boost: Twenty
sixth state to enter the union, North
Dakota could be sliced from Oregon
and leave enough over to make New
England; but let no one jump to the
conclusion that she is small in area
or otherwise, for all that. A very
large state, as states go in the east,
North Dakota has no mountains and
scarcely an acre of soil that is not till
able. The Mandan Indians, hosts of
Lewis and Clark, dwelt on the site of
her capital. A long stretch of the
great historic journey lay within the
state. North Dakota participates
most appropriately in the exposition;
those who know the state and people
need not be told that she participates
with marked excellence"
