WHY NOT PUBLIC INSTEAD
 OF PRIVATE INVESTIGATION?

ALASKA is full of special investiga- tors" this summer, it is claimed, and while they are not travelling with big brass bands, as did that star investiga- tor, Judge Day, the hunted ''partrid- ges" are keeping an eye on their move ments. These Investigators all seem to leave Washington with the same re- commentators as did Judge Day: that of experience and ability, and "enjoy- ing the fullest confidence of the execu- tive" It is to be hoped they will not betray that confidence as did Day,
 The people only ask for justice, legis- lative measures applicable to condit- ions of the country, and honest officials to administer the laws. When such corrupt officials as Judge Wickersham, Deputy George Dreibelbis and Cornmis sioner J. Lindley Green are upheld and protected in their nefarious manipula- tions by their superiors in office, it causes the monopolizing criminal ele- ment to strengthen their ranks with the patronizing influences so detrimental to the individual rights of the people.
 When matters are so manipulated as has been in the Third judicial division, protected by the highest officials in the National administration, it creates a. doubt in the minds of the people as to RoosevelC's s sincerity in the promises he made before election, relative to corrupt officials. The senate is not in doubt as to the proper course to pursue and should the charges filed against

JUDGE DAY AND PRIVATE !
 AXE-GRIND INVESTIGATION

WASHINGTON correspondents claim that 50 many complaints have reached that city relative to serious corruption existing among federal officials in AL aska, and the abuse of their official po- sitions; as we'll as charges of gross in- competency, that the president is per- plexed as to which is the right course to pursue. The charge claiming that Judge Day, during his trip of investiga- tion, permitted himself to be used by designing persons having their own ak es to grind" is well founded. Days actions on the Yukon certainly created the impression that he readily submit ted to the wishes of certain travelling companions who are known to ce per sonaliy interested in the reappointment of Judge Wickersham.
 The president must certainly be sat- isfed that Judge Day failed to perform the duties imposed upon him, as special investigator, in an impartial manner. AAO VA11y 0ItCuiPI 1t CHI OA&uoO AV1 I4l0 refusal of Day to investigate Rampant court center, was given at Rampant re- gently by Congressman Lacey, who said he understood that the steamer, which was conveying Judge Day down the Yukon, would not wait for him at Rampant. Such an excuse is equivalent to admitting that Day was manipulated by the boosters of the transportation corporation upon whose public convey ance he was riding, and who caused him to neglect and refuse to perform a duty involving the rights of the people.
 Judge Day would not have had to re- main at Rampant very long, even had the Susie proceeded on her way with out him, until another steamer would have conveyed him to Fairbanks. His

It was recently stated in the Review that there was a strong probability of the F. P X S. W. putting on through train from Fl Paso to Benson. Further consideration of the matter by the railroad company has since re- suited in a change of plans for the improved service. it now being the plan to make the new service between E.! Paso and Douglas. The patronage extended the train will determine the matter of extension of it's run at a iater date
 The additional service now decided upon is given particularly for the bene- it of Fl Paso people who desire to make Douglas. Bisbee. Tombstone or Benson and get home the same day
 It is understood the new service Will become effective on the 18th and for maj announcement of tha new tiG | is expected at once
 The hour of leaving Fl Paso Will be early in the morning, the train reaching Douglas in time for connec- tion with the train for Bisbee and Benson leaving there at 7:15. Its re- turn to Fl Paso will follow the return of the Benson train to Douglas ar about in the evening. All details for the new train have not get been arranged. but it will carry bJffet car and be up to the standard of ex- celIence and comfort the F. F. < s. W. provides on all its trains. It is believed that it will be a matter of but a short time before ,he railroad extends the service provided by the new I2in clear over the line.

THREE EFFORTS AT SUICIDE.
Desperate Struggle With Frenzied
Woman in New York.

NEW YORK. August 11.-After a desper-
ate struggle on the sill Of ffth-story win
dow. where Mrs. Rose Schramke was only
prevented by the efforts Of a woman friend
and policeman from throwing herself into
the street. Mrs. Schramke was today for
the third time prevented from killing her
self. She had already drunk water In
which matches had been soaked and had
tried to hang herself. but the rope had
broken under her weight. She was finally
removed to the hospital. where the poison
from the matches made her Ill, but it was
expected that she would recover.
Mrs. Schramke was a trapeze performer
in Berlin a few years ago, when a ieuten-
ant In the German army induced her to
eiope with him. She continued to perform
in the circus until she fell and was badly
injured in Pittsburg a few years ago. Then
they came to New York. and three months
ago her husband disappeared. Mrs
Schramke boarded with Mrs. Mary Notz,
on East 54th street.
Made respondent by her failures and the
absence of her husband. she first tried to
hang herself. Failing In that, she boiled
matches In water and drank the LIQUID, but
became impatient. and was trying to Jump
from the window when Mrs Notz dscov-
cred her. A struggle on the window sill,
five stories above the street. ensued Mrs
MOTIFS screams for help attracted attention
in the street. and a policeman ran up the
stairs and reached the struggling women
in time to save them both. when Mrs Notz
was becoming exhausted.
