STEWART AND MCDOWELL ARE BOUND OVER

Finishing a vehement arraign- ment during which he e1coriated the defendants in merciless manner, Judge Maltby yesterday (Saturday) discharged the Smith brothers, William Porter, Will liam Dunckle and J. Blodgett on the charge of malicious destruc- tion of property preferred by William Ansley, but bound over Stewart and Mcdowell, claimants of the Fairview trading post, to the grand jury at Fairbanks.
 In giving his judgment as to Stewart and Mcdowell, the court stated that although there had been no evidence submitted of actual malice on their part in dragging Landahl's bookstore into the street on the morning of August "A, the circumstances were such as to cast the implica- tion of malice, and that he felt it incumbent upon him to let the

WILL THEY APPOINT
 A NIGHT WATCHMAN ?

Following the appointment of E. J. Sitter as field deputy marshal by Mar shal Love, q movement is on foot to have Sitter made night watchmsn of the city, upon salary to be contribu- ted by those citizens who are willing to pay for fire protection. There appears to be decided sentiment in favor of such an innovation, made doubly at tractive by the fact that the citizens of Iditarod can have a peace officer as well as watchmsn to guard against fires.
 Mir. Sitter is an old patrolman from the Outside. Though in the North for If years he has been mining most of time, serving only for a short period as policeman in Nome. ae seems to be eminently qualified for the job of city ratchman, and secured his appoint ment from Marshal Love through several excellent recommendations.
 The need of proper fro precaution through the long winter nights is ap- parent, and it is probable that the move to put Sitter on salary will meet with little opposition. Though a field deputy marshal he will receive no regular salary from the government, nor was it possible for Love to make an appointment here that would carry tho salary of regular deputy. However there are some fees attached to field deputyship, and these with what the citizens can guarantee may prevail upon Mir. Sitter to accept the position.
 Before Love departed he confirmed the appointmenr of Doc Holmes as regular deputy to be stationed at Flat. Holmes formerly served under Marshal Sutherland at Juneau, and is capable and experienced man.

 In discharging the defendants whom he held not guilty, Judge Maltby passed up Wm. Porter and J. Blodgett but administered 2 severe tongue flashing to Dunckle and George and Jack Smith.
 Stewart and Mcdowell will be compelled to attend the session of the grand jury at Fairbanks which is presumed to be converting about this time. Tn the meantime their bond was fixed at S7 900 each.
