INTELLIGENT DISCUSSION
 OF POWER OF ATTORNEY

Judge Fred M Brown of the Third judi cial district of Alaska, before whom the important Chisana cases were tried, involv- ing the legality of certain mining claims by power of attorney has written a most sig nifcant letter to Delegate Wickersham. The decisions recently rendered by Judge Brown created widespread interest, and showed that he had thorough grasp of the spirit as we'll as the letter of the mining laws as ap plicable to Alaska His letter follows:
 Cordova, April 10, 1914 Hon. James Wickersham, Delegate from
 Alaska, Washington, D. c.
 My Dear Judge: I beg to suggest for your consideration the desirablity of an amendment to our mining laws prohibiting the location of mining claims by power of attorney. l feel satisfied that the sentiment in Alaska is overwhelmingly against loca- tions by power of attorney, and their use leads to a great deal of unproftable htiga- ton.
 The reason for their use sometimes given is that a prospector without means may want grubstake, and his principal should be permitted to locate through the use of a power of attorney. The reason, however, upon reflection, IS not a sufficient one. There is a growing tendency to limit the amount of ground that one man ought to locate in a new district A single mining claim of twenty acres as you know, may contain a very large amount of gold; in fact, if you pile it on thick enough, you can put a great deal of gold on one acre of ground
 The idea of holding large areas of ground for speculative purposes IS now looked upon with grave disfavor, and the true and cor rect theory is taking its place, viz. that a man locating q mining claim should be re- quired to work it, and when he ceases to care enough about it to work it he ought to be willing to give 1t up to somebody else who will work it.
 A prospector desiring assistance from some grubstaker may lawfully contract for some interest in whatever the prospector finds or locates.
 I consider this a very important matter, and suggest that if you have any doubt about the sentiment in Alaska, you wire for expressions of opinion from various DOT tions of Alaska feel satisfied that in this, the Third division, where new strikes are being made from time to time, the sentl- ment is overwhelmingly against the use of powers of attorney to any extent whatever.
 Yours very truly,
 F. NJ BROWN District Judge.

The we of the politician will be brought into full play and all that money and influence do will be brought to bear against him.
 To certain extent politics must be looked upon business proposon these days great questions of principle and human y divide the parties the earlier days of the republic While It IS that the South of sentiment dictates adher the cannot be sad that the doctrines o that party greatly resemble those of the traditional of antebeum days interest that untes the white people o the South

That Is because Sht IS the mower Ol our tribe. And yet she, too, Is as drunk as a piled owl As her tawny features are turned toward mine 1 see that she does not know whether there are two orators or nine ad- dressing this audience
 Look at Vinegar Bitters Pocahontas. Clothed in a coffee sack and gloom, she is in the land of slumber On this great day she sleeps the hours away, while the blue tail fly frOhcS over her copper-coIored nose.
 We were once q nation of orators. Our people once listened to the silvery tones of those who told them of their wrongs and bade them brace up.
 Now the shattered fragment of great nation gathers in the hot canyon, wrapped in nothing but brown study, and snores through the tardy hours.
 A few more summers, and your tale will be told The red man never weeps He may suffer. but he scorns to cry like 8 woman Pop-Eyed Caterpilar's heart is filled with sorrow for his people, but he will not squeal His soul is full of agony, but he will not give way to scalding weep.
 Each year we go upon the warpath, but we do not damage We kill 8 few con sumptives, it is true but it is not glitter ing success. Our warriors are too prone to relent when there IS danger near They spare the paeface who happens to be armed and show mercy to the ablebodied Cau casian with the double barreled shotgun. He always spares the paleface who is loaded.
 Once we went upon the warpath to pro tect our devoted squaws. Then they were fair to look upon, and brave and true. Wo nin111, foooI Iaoth tn Cho ton to the bronze beauties of our nation.
 Now it is not SO Times have changed. The maidens and matronS of our tribe are not beautiful They have ruined their con- plexion with fat pork and whisky. You can purchase a whole herd of them at cents bunch.
 Most of them would stop 8 clock with their wild peculiar beauty Look at Coyote Kate, who walked away with the clam shell bracelets voted to the most beautiful belle of the White River agency.
 Her nose is three quarters of an inch out of plumb, ard she has wart over her eye like moss agate.
 Warriors! must we lay down our lives in order to leave a widow who wears cav airy pants, and whose cooing voice sounds like the sad refrain of blaming mill?
 l trOw not.
 When we die and are laid to rest beneath the cottonwood in the valley, we want to be mourned over by brown-eyed gazelles, whose general appearance will not kill the vegetation.
 We cannot give up our hearts blood for sweethearts and wives with feet like sugar cured ham, and hair like the soft tresses of ld-headed shoe brush.
 The only hope for our tribe is for each warrior to plight his troth to one of these club damsels and then rush madly into battle, that they may climb the golden stair, and thus evade their horrid fate.
 If there be aught that would nerve our Tagging warriors to brave death and de struction 1t is this.
