THAT KUSKOKWIM
 TELEPHONE LINE

In the issue of Feb. 2nd, the Fair banks News-Miner is authority for the statement that the Kuskokwim country is to have telephone system next sum- mer and that the supplies have already been ordered on the Outside to be sent in by way of Bethel.
 Everything points to Georgetown as the Kuskokwim station, says the Fairbanks paper, and the telephone will be used in conjunction with the wireless.
 When interviewed here, concerning the establishment of such line, Henry Weir, manager of the local telephone company, stated that nothing definite had been decided upon here, since they have been waiting for further develop ments on the Kuskokwim.
 He admitted that supplies had been ordered, and that it would take but a short time to do the work, in case the Kuskokwim line be decided upon.

MRS, CARBONNEAlI
 USES LARGE WHIP

Seattle, Jan. 29-Lured to a room in the Archibald hotel at ten o'clock last night by false message, A. r. Ruser formerly cashier of the Dome City bank, was lashed with a horsewhip till he could hardly stand by Mrs. Carbon neau and two burly helpers, who held him helpless while she piled the whip. After the whipping of Ruser, Mrs Carbonneau and her helpers mysterious ly disappeared and cannot be found. Ruser is now in the city hospital hay ing his injuries attended 10.
 Mrs. Carbonneau came here from North Yakima yesterday and located Ruser She then lured him to the ho- tel by means of a message which stated that man named Brown wished to see him at the Archibald When Ruser knocked at the door the two men pul- led him into the room and locked the door. Mrs. CarbOnneau soon came in and commenced asking Ruser questions and then the men tore his clothes from his back and she slashed him unmerci- fully across the face and body.
 She stated that she was thrashing him On account of the suit he has in- stituted reHecting on the business in- tegrity of herself and her sister Mar garet Mulrooney. This suit instituted against Margaret Mulrooney charges her with the embezzlement of SlO, 800 while acting as cashier of the bank.
 Seattle, Jan. 3l-The foul attack made upon Miss Margaret Mulrooney by A. F. Ruser of Dome. Alaska, and the punishment meted out to him by Mrs. Carbonneau. who horsewhipped him until he cried like baby, is the topic of conversation among Alaskans here, all of whom are indignant at Ruser's making such charge against Miss Mulrooney.
 In an interview today, Mrs. Carbon neau denied that anyone held Ruser while she whipped him, and said chat there were a number of Alaskans in the city who wanted to take the punish ment of Ruser into their own hands, but she considered it family affair, and attended to the matter herself.

Fairbanks Girl
 Called by Death

Miss Ragna Hofseth, the popular young lady who was taken suddenly ill on the afternoon of January 29 at the Bevans house in Fairbanks, where she was employed as waitress, passed away at St. Joseph's hospital on the morning of February ?,
 The young lady was operated on the day following her sudden seizure, and it was discovered that one of the larger blood vessels of the abdominal cavity was ruptured, and it is probable that the great loss of blood before the oper- ation rendered her too weak to over come the effects of the ordeal.
 In the following two or three days she suffered number of hemorrhages, terminating in unconsciousness and death. Miss Hofseth was native of Norway and came to Alaska three years ago from England. She leaves a mother and two sisters in Aalesund, Norway, two brothers in the Iditarod, and one on the Outside.

The Grand Jury.

1t may be expected that searching
investigation will be conducted by the
court into the alleged attempt to intiu-
ence members OF the grand jury in a
pending case. No more serious offense
can be committed than that Of tampering
with the men who are selected by the
court to sit as its representatives for
the preliminary examination into charges
into criminal conduct. The grand jury
Of a community is its most sacred safe
guard against crime and disorder, fraud
and violence. To the extent that 1t is
Trustworthy it Is an insurance of peace
and proper living. Public confidence in
the grand jury has in Washington re-
manned mistaken, and 1t is indeed a fact
that in most cities grand jury processes
are above susp.-!ca. The size OF the
body, twice that Of the ordinary trial
jury, Is in itself. in a measure, a pro-
lection against corruption, inasmuch as
a jury "fixer' runs a serious risk of ex-
posture in approaching members.
Justice Wright in ihstituting his inquiry
proceedings has intimated that in his
view II Is an act of contempt and an
attempt at bribery even to speak of
member Of the grand jury on a pending
case. This is sound doctrine. There can
be no safety in a less drastic concept
of the responsibility OF the juror and
the danger Of permitting any communi-
cation whatsoever between him and
others relative to the interests intrusted
to his consideration. Only by holding

The Corporation Tax Decision.

The country has so often seen the Su-
preme Court stand divided in ruling upon
questions of great importance that have
been submitted to it that it views with
gratified surprise the rendering Of a unan-
imous decision sustaining the constitu-
tionality of the corporation tax law
Heretofore such issues have been settled
by majority only of the court, often
With the closest possible division. the
court standing FIVE to four on some of the
most vitality significant cases ever SUBJ
mitted to 1t. In this matter Of the cor
poration tax all nine justices of the
court agree that the law is constitutional
and applicable to all of the test cases
submitted save three, in which II rules
that the tax does not apply for reasons
which do not affect the validity Of the tax
in general. 1t is furthermore notable that
the recent changes in the personnel OF
the court have not been material in ef-
fectins the result. Six of the nine JUS
tees who voted to sustain the constitu-
tionality or the tax were sitting when
the cases were first submitted, and, as
Stunning that they were then Of the mind
they are today, a decision rendered be-
fore the new appointments were made
would have sustained the law by at least
a two-thirds vote.
This decision makes no change in the
existing financial situation. The corpora
tons have been paying the tax since the
new law went into effect under protest,
reserving the right Of refund in case
the law failed to pass the Supreme Court
test. Up to date over s27. $4,000 has been
collected from the corporations under this
statute. which sum the United States
would have had to return to the corpora
tions had the decision been adverse to the
government. Such a refund would in
evitably have necessitated a bond issue

it to be improper to communicate in any
manner with a grand juror on a subject
of pending Importance is it possible to
maintain the standard Of safety which
should be upheld strictly in all that re-
lates to the work Of this body.
1t is to be hoped that in this present
matter there has in fact been no attempt
at or thought of bribery or the exercise
Of improper influence to affect the action
Of the grand jury. 1t would be deplora-
BILE If the idea prevailed in any quarter
that members of the grand jury could
be swerved from their duty or weakened
in their fidelity to the oath they take
to deliver an absolutely impartial, un-
prejudiced judgment upon the circum-
stances set before them. Whatever may
be found to have been the fact in this
case, the inquiry inaugurated by Justice
Wright cannot fail of a good effect

seems to be quite undisturbed by the

newspapers, irrespective of party, ex-
cepting few. treat of the subject with
moderation. President Diaz assured the
Mexican correspondent of the Associ-
ated Press Sunday that he did not
fear the presence Of our troops in Texas
would impair the friendly relations of
the two countries. The Mexican in
surrectos seem to view the movements
of our troops complacently. The few
alarmists hereabout seem to be pos
sessed of a sudden sympathy with the
Mexican revolutionists. They assume
that our army is to invade Mexico to
suppress revolution against a des-
potic government. They may be as
sured that nothing would more surely
unite in common cause the various
contentious factions and scarcely I'M
affiliated races Of Mexico than the gen.
eral belief in that country that the
United States contemplated invasion of
its territory.

Border Troubles and 1912.

1t is the hope probably Of every
body that not a single soldier may be
forced by circumstances across the
Mexican border, for we all know that
the appearance Of the Stars and Stripes
In Mexico, even as a pacifying influ-
ence, might lead to grave and pro-
tracted consequences. Once run up the
stan there. the flag might have to fly
a long time. and the expense tempo
rarily, would have to be borne by
this country. And the bill would be
large. What has fate in store for us?
Congress is on the eve of assembling
to inaugurate if possible a policy Of
economy and tariff reductions. The prop
osition Of the democratic party, whose
success in November was pronounced, is
that we are both collecting and spend
Ing too much money, and it has promised
to lower the figures in both cases. Would
1t not be startling. therefore, if, while
Congress is so engaged, developments
in the Mexican affair should call for ap-
preparations on a sort of war basis
Such call would have to be needed.
1t is unthinkable that in such an emer-
gency any party leader of influence
would draw back and seek for personal
or factional purposes to embarrass the
government. Instead Of profiting by
such course, such man would ruin

issues are now defined, would make

The spectacle Of the Supreme Court up

Is calculated to increase public respect

felt in the justice and soundness of a
decision rendered by nine jurists without
dissent or qualification than in one sub
scribed to by only fraction of the court
even though that fraction may be a ma
jority. Yet these very divisions have
been regarded in certain lights as safe
guards, indicating the possibility of d.
verse opinions upon questions of law and
constitutionality by men removed from
the field OF politics. freed from the tram
mels of partisan obligation and qualified
to Judge issues solely In the light of their
own reading Of the fundamental law.
When such men are unanimous upon
question OF first Importance the country
must regard it as settled beyond doubt.

Foreign Investments in Mexico.

Outside investments in Mexico are thus

British investments are largely In rail-

proportion, with only Is per cent in min

more largely in mining nearly half being
assigned to that field of enterprise; while
the capital of other nations mentioned
has gone for the most part into banking,
manufacturing and trade. The figures
represent, of course. the toughest kind
of estimates. but they are of interest as
