STATEHOOD FOR NEW MEXICO

That Mir. Roosevelt can declare thus early that he intends in his message to congress to recommend statenoOd for New Mexico is another indication of how the president can change bis mind and apparently see DO shame in lt. Gn the battle for statehood which formed so large part of the history Of the 59th congress, Mr. Roosevelt stood for linking the two territories, New Mexico and Ari2onia, together. Evidently, little time has shown him that he was in error and he is not ashamed to confess it.

Dawsoa Yukon territory, tCanalal, 8 place now of much less importance and population to either Valdez or Fairbanks, has three judges with con- tinued sessions of court during the winter. All Alaska Is fretting because of many conditions such as this and because of its Inability to make con- greSs understand, Alaska is a liberal contributor to the national treasury and not source of expense. It claims the right to DEMAND relief but it's demands are ignored.

RESPECTFULLY ADDRESSED TO "OuT, SIDE" NEWSPAPERS THAT HAVE A SENSE OF FAIRPLAY AND THROUGH THEM TO THE NEXT SESSION OF CONGRESS

h May last Judge Silas II. Rsid, recently appointed judge of the third judicial division Of Alaska, left Fair banks after holding bis first session of court, saying he would return in July and hold another session. He had figured it all out by the schedules of the steamer and railroad lines. He was going to visit his old home at Oklahoma, whence he had recently come to Alaska. But he had not counted on the uncertainty of uavi- gstiou ln this northern country; the lakes were not open and the river was low. He was much longer in making SksEway than be had counted on. He was not able to make the round trip in the time be had figured and so called e later term. But the later term also lapsed for similar reasons. Important cases were now pending at Valdez; there were three murder cases, and a ship load of Japanese had been arrested and held there for trial for seal posching. Judge Reid wired the distric. attorney at Fairbanks to go to Valdez. Valdez, by the winter trail, is 300 miles from Fairbanks, but in summer this trail is made impossible by turbulent and unabridged streams. Mir. Crossley took steamer at Fair. banks, down stream to the Yukon river at Fort Gib5ou, then up stream 10 Dawson in Yukon territory, then further up stream Co WhitehorSe, still in Yukon territory. There he took train over the White Pass, III miles to Skagway in Alaska. Here he took the ocean steamer south. Had he been right Co make connection at Juneau he would there have changed steamers for the westward, but he found that he could gain time and save mo-ey by going on to Seattle and there taking ship by what is known as the "outside," |" direct to Valdez, although by so doing he added two thousand miles to his iourney-the distance south to Seattle, while his real direc- lion was west. His entire journey, Lou. of the third judicial division and back into it again--was $500 miles, to attend 8 session Of court that will probably last oLe month. A months time was consumed in the journey. Over this track there fol- lowed few days later the clerk of the court.
 All Alaska has been asking congress for years to divide up this big division and name judge with headquarters at Fairbanks, and 10 give Valdez and the south coast another judge, but it has been met by lack of understanding and sympathy. At Fairbanks there is 8 long docket of important cases, crim. iual and civil. Many persons are in prison awaiting trial that seldom comes. Common humanity impelled the release of others on reduced bail who otherwise would have been in jail. Many civil cases involving thousands and a few involving millions are pending. Litigants are uttering loud complaints while the court is out of business or holding it's sessions else where. Fre,tiug over an inability to effect settlement Of Q mininR-clalm dis pute. which has been !n the courts for years, two opposing claimants few days ago went to work on the claim A shooting that may be fatal was the immediate result.

Shannon Gun Club Wins.

The shoot last Sunday afternoon oil Shannon Hill between the Shannon and Clifton teams resulted in a victory for the former by a margin of 2l birds, being the greatest diff ference in the three shoots that have taken place between the two clubs. The members of the Clifton club who took part in the shoot were grea tly discouraged before the shoot com menced, as several of the best shots failed to put in their appearance, hence the team was handicapped. Under the circumstances there was no chance for the Clifton team to win as they were simply outclas>ed, but those who did show up were game and went through with the schedule, some of them making such low scores that the sheet was destroyed and the ERA could not get the Est. In the future members of the Clifton club are requested to take more interest in their match shoots.
