HE WANTS TO BE FRIENDLY

Wickersham claims to be an in- dependent in Alaskan politics, running on the only genuine re- publican ticket. He is known to be friendly towards the gamb- ling fraternity and he seems to have a strong following among that class. Mir. Wickersham is, however, very anxious to get following among the miners. He made the statement in his last speech that the item which appeared in the papers that his private secretary had attempted to break up one of ChllDerg's meetings at Fairbanks, was in- serted for the purpose of split ting the friendship which ex isted between himself and the miners. The miners who were at the meeting showed their dis appreciation of this assumption by maintaining an absolute si- lence. A few of the noisy ele. ment who are so ardently sup porting Wickersham attempted applaud, but Mir. Wickersham seeing that he had made a ser ious break, hastily passed on to another subject.
 What a colossal nerve the man had 1. Of course, he was not aware at the time that we had received a wire from Fairbanks giving the record of his attitude towards the miners there during their strike. He thought, per. haps, that his winning personal. ity would bring the miners over to him en masse. It is clearly evident that, long as he has lived in Alaska, he has not yet become acquainted with the miner.
 A miner, especially a member of the Western Federation of Miners, has learned, through bitter experience, that the only practical way in which he can better his condition is to go into politics himself, acting as unit with his fellow workers. Having learned his lesson thus far, it is easy for him to go step further and decide that the only candi. date in whom he can place any confidence is one selected from the great body of workers. The workingmen of Alaska have done this very thing and have, on every occasion, shown their Ge. termination to stand by their candidate, and yet Judge Wick. ersham tries to convey the i'm pression that a close friendship exists between himself and tie miners.
 The man who, during the min- CTS strike at Fairbanks, sent a telegram to the district judge requesting him to close the sa., looms that were patronized by the workingmen who accepted straw bonds, while on the bench, in cases where miners were Try. ing to recover their wages; vi Q has always, since bis advent in

Souris and Westhope is be-
coming intense. The farmer
that has not discovered gas on
his place is the exception. A
few davs ago Banker Hayes of
Souris was out in the country
hunting aud becoming some
what fatigued he sat down to
rest near a gopher hole. He
detected the smell of gas, but
thought nothing of it until he
struck a match to light his
pipe. There was a terrific ex-
plosion and Mr.. Hayes was
thrown several yards. While
badly crippled his business
instinct did not forsake him
and he plugged up the hole
with his gun barrel, went to
the owner of the farm and Sc
cured an option on the hole,
drove to town and immediately
organized a gas company. A
large block of stock has al
ready been put on the eastern
market. The farmers in that
vicinity are now reaping a
financial harvest from selling
options on gopher holes.

Hints About Canning Fruit.

In order to be successful in
canning fruit it is necessary
that care be taken in the
selection as we'll as the pre-
paration of the fruit. The
best fruit should be selected
and the jars thoroughly ster-
ilized before the fruit is put
into them. With the exception
of pears and gooseberries, all
fruits used for canning should
be ripe when picked, and
canned while fresh. Pears are
better if picked before tho
roughly ripe and allowed to
ripen in the house, while goose
berries are used before they
ripen. Do not begin the pro-
cess of canning fruit until you
have your fruit and cooking
utensils all in readiness and
then complete the process as
rapidly as possible. Granite
or porcelain pans are best for
this purpose and they should
be shallow in order that the
fruit may be only one layer
deep. This allows it to cook
quickly, which is the secret
of it's being light colored and
fine favored, and it also makes
it possible to handle it so as
to avoid breaking it. Never
think to economize by using
old rubbers on the jars for you
can buy a good many rubbers
with the price of one jar of
fruit. The Housekeeper for
July.

tier and Sa-Ke-She-Wehsunk
&known also as Little Risin g
Sum, who are under arrest
accused of the murder of F. w.
Seidel and his niece, Alexandra
SeideI, at the Somber postofice
Sunday, June 21, were arraign-
ed Monday afternoon.
They were first taken before
Justice Mark Hawker. charged
with the murder of F. w.
Seidel, the information having
been sworn out by States
Attorney E. G.. Bowen. The
prisoners were brought into
the court room in charge of
Sheriff N. H. McKinnon, Dep
uty Richard Bond and their
deputies. The room was
crowded with spectators anx-
ious to catch a glimpse of the
accused murderers. E. G..
Bowen appeared for the state
and Weeks & Murphy re-
presented the Peltier brothers.
The Indian had not consulted
legal advisers prior to the
arraignment.. The information
was read to the prisoners by
Justice Hawker. Peter Mar
cellais of Belcourt acting as
interpreter for Little Rising
Sun, who does not understand
the English language.
They were then arraigned
before Police Magistrate John
Sn1ithson, ex-offcio justice of
the peace, charged with the
murder of Alexandra iSeidel
and the information charging
them with the crime read.
Their hearing was set for II a.
m. Thursday, July 2, before
Justice Hawker.
The hearing was in progress
and the states witnesses were
being examined when the
Courant went to press( s(Thurs-
day.. Weeks & Murphy and
Albert Besancon are represent
ing the defendents and States
Attorney E. G Bowen and his
assistant, w. H. Adams, appear
for the state.
The Peltier brothers, Joseph
and Charles, and the Indian
Sa-Ke-She- -Wehsuhk have been
positively identified as the
three breeds seen around the
Seidel store during the after
noon of the Sunday of the
murder. All three admit
having been there, but the
Peltier boys claim the Indian
committed the murder, while
the Sa-Ke-She Wehsunk main
tains that he was not present
when the killing took place.
According to his story, Joe
Peltier suggested killing the
old man Seidel and taking his
money, but he (the Indian)
refused to have a part in it.
Joe then threatened to shoot
him and he ran away and
started for his home in Turtle
Mountain reservation. He says
he was overtaken by the Peltier
boys about 8 O. o'clock at night.
Toe Peltier claims the Indian
killed Seidel, striking him over
the head with a rifle while the
old gentleman was leaning
over scraping sugar from the
bottom of a barrel, beating his
head to a jelly when he fell to
the floor. They admit being
present, however, when the
murder was committed and
W ere undoubtedly in the post
office when Amos Hiatt drove
up and looked into the room in
another part of the building in
which Alexandra Seiders body
lay and where the flames had
already started. They claim
to have heard the wheels CRATE
when Hiatt turned his buggy
around and drove to Dugal
Martin 8 for help.
1t is probable that all three
had a part in the killing
although the Indians story
sounds the more plausible.

1t is proving a difficult task to Sc
cure a crew for the ship Edward Sc
wall which is wanted to get away to-
morrow for the Atlantic coast.

it is announced that the Sewall is in

deep water.
This morning young Hawaiian,
who has still to become a sailor, was
signed. Three Filipinos, sailors, got on
the articles and a Mexican and Porto
Rican, doubtful, we're taken.
Captain Quick staid away from the
Office of United States Shipping Com
missioner Almy, making it a difficult
task for the commissioner to sign on
men. For example: A steward and a
cook presented themselves, APPARENTLY
good men, but the captain had left no
word as to what wages he vented 20
pay cook or a steward and these men
had to be sent to look for him to get
instructions IN writing before the sign
ing of the articles could be proceeded,
with. A couple of good, husky young
fasteners were signed on later in the
day and an old sailor, sailmaker and
all-round sea-dog got his fist on the
papers before noon. Eight men are
still needed and it had been intended
to get the ship away tomorrow.
She will probably not sail, as it is,
until Monday, although today she may
anchor outside the harbOr.
Since all the shipping masters, bad,
Indifferent and good, have been dis
couraged from the waterfront 1t is eX-
tremely difficult to raise a deep water
