was ushered through two rooms into
his private office. He received me
pleasantly. After my own business
was settled he mentioned conditions
in Kansas.
"'Wheat is too high there, he said.
We will show the wheat 4 mem at
Kansas City and the southwest that
it will be lower in the spring than it
is now
Il remarked that already forty per
cent of the Kansas wheat was gone,
but he replied:
az think that the supply of wheat
in the northwest will offset the
scarcity of wheat in Kansas and in
the southwest in general and it will
be lower in the spring than it is at
present.
Mr.. Patterns personality impressed
me very strongly. He had no man
nerisms of any kind. He was strictly
business, but very cordial. He looks
like his newspaper pictures.
His office was furnished very
plainly, with the usual market board.

closely as wheat was jumping that
day.

The testimony for the prosecution was all by natives. In every respect it was straight enough except little confusion regarding dates Albert Jacob cut wood for Eckengreen and had an open account. He was, and is still, indebted to Ecken- green. He was positive he got six bot ties of whisky, some of which was in November and some in December.
 In his own behalf the defendant de- nied selling or giving the whisky. By himself and other white witnesses the jealous enmity of other traders was shown. Defendants character was shown to be good.
 The defendant claimed conspiracy on the part of business rivals to put him out of business and introduced tes- timony intended to establish the con tention. It is claimed the rivals in- duced Archdeacon Stuck, without direct personal knowledge, to lay the charge, and then ribbed up the natives to sus- tain it. Had Stuck and Moses, wit ness named in the warrant, been pres ent, the defense claims the conspiracy could have been clearly shown.
 In giving the case to the jury the court instructed them that if they found the defendant sold whisky at any time between the first day of January and the last day of November, 1907, they should find him guilty.
 The jury was out about five hours. It is said it stood II to for acquittal from the beginning to the time agreement was reached on verdict of not guilty.

seampering for Safety in
 Other Fields.

Ernest Bartezi and the woman posing as his wife, who were arrested ten days ago on the telegraphic request of Kazis Krauczunas, inspector in charge of the United States immigration service for the districtssof Alaska, are still detained at the local jail. It is expected, how ever, that the inspector will come for them in day or two.
 They are Belgians, and it is alleged Bartezi imported the woman for inn moral purposes. They will be taken to Seattle and an investigation held, and if it is found they are unlawfully in the country they will be deported.
 c. B. Allen, the Rampant attorney, last week offered to have Bartezi taken before the district judge at Fairbanks on habeas corpus proceedings, but the offer was declined. In similar cases at Fair banks it has lately been held that per sons under Bartezi's circumstances are not entitled to the benefit of the habeas corpus writ.
 Several cases of the kind are pending at Fairbanks. It is alleged that at least seven or eight maquereaux of the Bar tezi pattern have passed through Panama from Fairbanks within the past ten days, most of whom were headed for Yukon territory.

MAQUEREAUX ACQU|T TAL FOR ECKENGREEN
Tried on Two Charges, Jury Fails to Find Him Guilty
 on Either.

Victor Eckengreen was acquitted or a charge of selling liquor without license by jury last Friday night
 He was rearrested and held in $1 ,OOC on charge of giving or selling liquor tc Indians, the same alleged acts being the basis for both charges.
 The charges had been laid at Fair. banks by Archdeacon Hudson Stuck o1 the Episcopal church.
 The complainant was not present at the trial
 Neither was Moses, d witness named in the warrant of arrest.
 When Victor Eckengreen appeared for trial in the local justices court last Thursday on charge of selling liquor without a license on a day not specified in November, 1907, c. B. Allen, of Ram part, was present as his attorney.
 Archdeacon Stuck, the Episcopal mis- sionary who made the complaint, was absent.
 Motions to dismiss on account of the absence of complaining witness, of de- fective warrant and for lack of jurisdic- tion, as we'll as for change of venue, being denied by the court, a plea of not guilty was entered and a jury trial called for.
 "Would you, all things being equal, give the same weight and consideration to the testimony of an Indian as you would to that of white man?" asked the justice of the jurors one after an other in determination of their qualifi- cations for duty in the case.
 The question was a poser. Some said offhand that all things could not be equal as between an Indian and a white man, and were excused; others asked the court to explain the question; and finally the test seemed to settle down tC the proposition of whether the mere fact that witness was an Indian would dis credit his testimony in the mind of the juror.
 Even under this slightly less rigiC requirement, many were called and few chosen. After noon the court left the questioning to the accused's counsel Mir. Allen. Mir. Allen said he wanted to be perfectly fair and impartial te both sides: the court answered that he was satisfied of that. In short after supper session the jury was completed the following twelve being accepted ou of total of thirty-nine examined:
 W. Doherty, o. Poppert,
 George Rice, W. Poppert
 James Randall, Angus Gillis,
 w. B. Rodman, Bert Lucas, | J. Donovan, H. L. Hearn, James Mockler, Peter Smith.
 Friday morning Paul Williams wa sworn as court interpreter. The de fense had Paul Kokrine sworn as checl on Williams.

Prospectors
 On the Hosiana

According to Victor Eckengreen, who conducts a trading post near the mouth of that river, there are fourteen or fif- teen prospectors on the Hosiana this summer. Their work is principally on the Mud Fork.
 An engineer was expected to look over some ground for Boston parties, but he had not arrived up to the time Mir. Eek engreen left home.
 Last summer some prospectors rocked more than dollar an hour from a bar on the Mud Fork for short time. They then constructed dam and attempted to work on bigger scale; but the dam failed to hold and their efforts came to nought. The creek is subject to sudden and violent floods.
 Mir. Eckengreen had heard of no note worthy activity on the Chandlar; but there, as we'll as on the Hosiana, pros pectors are paying considerable atten- tion to quartz.
 Quite a little fur was taken in the Hosiana country last winter.

SIDE Of HER LOVE AFFAIR

II possible for individuals of the two
races to find happiness If they are
people of intelligence, comprehending
one another's views of life. in SYM
pathy with each others ideals and
having the patience to tolerate the
difference in the point Of view which
will Of necessity be greater than in
an ordinary marriage.
Real happiness cannot be attained
by those who are constantly listening
to the voice of their neighbors but 1t
can sometimes be maintained de-
spite all the clamoring Of the outer
world.
II has been said that the children
OF such a marriage would have no
chance for advancement either In this
country or in japan. I believe that
men and women Of character make
their own opportunities and that
without character a man will fail de-
spite all world-made chances.
II children resulting from such
marriage have intellect and moral
force, mob sentiment cannot keep
them down. Without these two re-
quisites they can attain no true sue
cess, no matter what their parentage.
I believe a child born Of intelli-
gent japanese and American parents
IA far more apt to become a useful
and respected citizen than child
born OF any Of the so-called Ameri-
cans whose fathers and mothers
we're peasant immigrants from Eu-
rope.
I believe that such children VIII

Americans some lessons in the Ori-
entail virtues Of dignity and self re-
straint. Of which we stand greatly In

II America ever stood for free

ishly the utterances OF demagogues.
