Dillon Vindicated By Attorney General Davidson's Trick Proves To be a Failure

That the charges preferred against Commissioner John F. Dillon of Fairbanks by the Alaska legislature. to the effect that he had been ar bitrarily violating the Alaska laws passed by the legislature. are not true has been proved by q circular issued by T. w. Gregory, attorney general of the United States, and sent to the various commissioners in Alaska.
 This circular declares that the commissioners must collect the fees provided by congress and not ob- serve those fixed by the Alaska with federal regulations.
 Ire charges made by the leg islature against Mir Dillon were the result of a report filed with it by Charles E. Davidson, secretary of the Territory, in which he scored Mir. Dillon Mir Dilon's friends have accused Mir Davidson of malice in making the report, for when Mir. Davidson was in fairbanks he endeavored to get MT Dillon removed Tor personal reasons. md has since been unfriendly to the local cOmmlsSlOner.
 Tn compliance with the instruc- tions of the house of representa- lives, Judge Bunnell received the following letter from Juneau:
 REMOVAL ASKED.
 Dear Sir-I am instructed by the house of representatives to forward 10 you copy of the report of the committee on Judiciary and Federal Relations, together with copies of the exhibits attached thereto, with the request that you investigate the matter of fees charged by the com inissioners in your division: and also, that you remove from the of flee of U. s. commissioner, at Fair banks, John F. Dillon, for neglect and wilful refusal of performance of his duty as such commissioner in the enforcement of the laws of he Territory of Alaska.
 "The copies of the report, and the exhibits, are enclosed herewith.
 Yours respectfully,
 BARRY KEOWN.
 Chief Clerk of the House"
 Accompanying the letter to Judge Bunnell was a copy of a report made Dy tue uOuSe COllllllIltte Ou JuulCIdIy and federal relations, in regard to a report filed with the committee by Mir Davidson. A part of this report is as follows:
 THE REPORT.
 However, the hon. secretary men, tions one fragrant instance of dis obedience and an absolute refusal to perform the duty of U. s. con- missioner acting in the capacity of registrar of vital statistics. namely. the name of one John F. Dillon, U. s. commissioner at Fairbanks, Alas ka, who, in the language of said report appears to have treated the territorial laws with the utmost contempt refusing to perform the duties imposed upon him. The com mittee upon further investigation learned from other sources the cor rectness of the said accusation by said report made by the hon. sec retary, and further learned that the said John F. Dillon seems to be law unto himself, arbitrarily refus- ing to record instruments presented to him accompanied by the record ing fee, when in his self-imposed judgment he deems the instrument offered not artifically drawn as he views 1t should be; that the said Dillon also fixes, in some instances, the charges to be paid for recording

He at tended to the injury immediately but blood poison set in with the result that the young man is now at St. Joseph's hospital here, receiy- ing medical attention. It is believed that he is now well on the way to recovery, although he will probably be in the hospital for a week at least.

Had 0 Pay For JJHc

Had To Sometimes practical iokea Pay For do not always end just JoAc. as they are expected
 to by those responsible for them This is a fact to which Nallace Cathcart can testify.
 Mir. Cathcart and Mir Joe Morrow of the Firs. National bank, plan. ned a little outing trip recently and according to ;hcir plans each was to pay half Of the expenses. There were , few things to be pur- chased preytous to the departure, and MT. Cathcaft was 10 do the pur- chasing.
 Accordingly Mr Catheart went to the bank 10 ask Mir. Morrow for the money, but the latter was out when he called. Then 1t occurred to Mir Cathcart that it would be a great joke to issue draft on Mir. Morrow for the money. He knew that it would surprise his friend to be presented with the draft, and he considered it a great scheme.
 The draft was made out in the regular form, calling for the pay ment of about 5 from the bank s teller. But there was surprise in store for Mir Cathcart. when he found that he would have to pay 50 cents for collecting the draft. I; is understood that he has decided such jokes are too expensive.
 Visits John LindQui5t, of Gar Old den Island tells an in- Home. terestins story about his
 visit which he took some time ago, to his old home in Sweden. after an absence of 3S years. His relatives there had gain ed tie impression that he was dead, and therefore none of them knew him. IL was sort of Enoch Arden experience. though there was no matrimonial feature to it.
 When he came to the United States. in 1874, MT. Lindquist left behind him in Southern Sweden sev- eral relatives. including brothers and half-brothers and half-sister Until 1881 he cores bonded with them, and then he quit writing, So they grew to look upon him as being dead.
 His long-delayed visit back to the old home was unheralded, and he concluded to see if his relatives would recognize him. He took rooms
 
 the country to see his relatives. He went to the home of one of his brothers and tried to strike up bargain for the purchase of the farm, and on that preteXt visited the house several times.
 His brother and his other rela tives failed to recognize him, but an old lady grew suspicious of his frequent visits to the place, and one day she asked MT. LindQuists broth CT if he did not have a brother who had gone to America many years previously He said he had, but ttat the brother was dead. She said she thought the man who want ed to buy the place was his broth CT, but this was not looked upon as possible.
 However. when MT. Lindquist came again they told him of the old lady's suspicious. Then he laughed and said:
 Perhaps the old lady is right. Maybe I am your brother"
 But the elder brother looked him over doubtfully and shook his head, Then MT. Lindquist held out his hand, and, pointing 10 scars that

 The committee further found that the said Dillon absolutely re- fused to distribute vital statistic blanks as required of him, and en- tirely ignored the law and duty imposed by said act of the Ter ritorial legislature. ..
 Wherefore, this committee recom- mends that copy of this report and the accompanying exhibits be sent to each of the district judges of the District of Alaska, with the request that they look into the mat ter of fees charged by their respec- tive commissioners, and that the hon. judge for the Fourth division at Fairbanks, be requested to remove said John F. Dillon from the office of U. s. commissioner at Fairbanks for neglect and wilful refusal Of performance of his duty as sucn commissioner, so that an enforce ment of the laws can be had with out annoyance and expense to the people of his division"
 The letter of the Rev. G. c. Bruce referred to in the report, was also received by Judge Bunnell. It is in reply to one received by Mir. Bruce from Mir.

Dillon, and in the letter MT Bruce asks why he is forced to pay s2 for recording a marriage license when the Territor- ial law provided charge of but s1
 The circular from the attorney general, which authorizes commis- sioners to obey federal laws first. is as follows:
 FEDERAL DECISIONS.
 Under date of January 5, 1915, the comptroller of the treasury ren- dered two decisions upon the re quests made by the department as to whether United States commis- sioners in Alaska shall charge the fees prescribed by territorial statute or those fixed by regulation of the department, where the territorial fees are different from those fixed by regulation for the same service.
 Tn these decisions the comptrol- Ter holds that where a federal sta tute fixes fee for a service to be rendered by a United States con- missioner in Alaska such fee is ap- plicable to the exclusion of any diff ferent and inconsistent fee which the territorial legislature may have prescribed for the same service.
 For example, when these com- missioners record certificates of marriage, of birth or of death they are entitled to the fees provided by paragraph 1706 of instructions and in the absence of rule of compe- tent authority to the contrary will be held to account accord ngly. They are also entitled to the federal fee for recording affIdavits of annual work (paragraph 1706 of instruc- tions) and for affidavits of location (paragraph 1725 of instructions)
 Tt is, therefore, requested that where the fees prescribed by ter ritorial statute are different from or inconsistent with the fees fixed by regulation of the department, made pursuant to federal statute, the federal fees be charged
 Respectfully,

 Attorney General"
