means to take upon itself the tremend- ous task of maintaining an adequate guard along the many hundred miles of boundary forming the dividing line between the two nations.
 It is, therefore, up to us to assist in guarding the border until such time as Mexico can take upon itself the full duties of government. To many of us it may appear a trif1e humiliatinS that the great and power full nation is which we abide must descend to negotiations to achieve what it might justly demand. but, at the same time, there is some consola- tion in the thought that after all 1t is better than forcing upon the hapless Mexicans a torrent of death and blood shed by way of averaging the wrongs which they obviously could not pre- vent

WILL OFFER AN
 AMENDMENT

The difficulties sometimes experi- enced in obtaining a qualified judge to sit on cases wherein the presiding judge IS disqualified for any reason from hearing them, has led to some discussion among attorneys as to a remedy. It IS held that the delay con- seqeent ufon the failure to promptly secure jurist qualified to hear the
 ; inghl result detrimentally to one side or the other through the dis appearance of witnesses and other causes.
 While Acting Attorney General Cobb was in Valdez a few days ago Attor- ney J. l.. Reed took up the matter with him and tentative nie-- ~-~ formulated to remedy the matter. To this end MT. Reed has drawn up and will submit at the next session of the territorial legislature the following amendment:
 Resolved, That section l54o of the compiled laws of Alaska, chapter TO oI the code of civil procedure be and IS hereby amended to read as follows:
 Whenever 1t appears that the judge of the district court presiding in the division where the action is pending is disqualified under the provisions of the section, last preceding the action shall be transferred to another division of said court unless a judge of an- other division will appear and preside during the disposition thereof: Pro- yided, however, That the parties may, by written stipulation, agree upon a member of the bar of said court to try the same.
 Provided, further That upon the demand of either party the marshal shall, after having given one days mo- tice in writing by posting same in a conspicuous place at or near the court house door, setting forth the time and place of said meeting which shall be held in the district court room, call a meeting of the bar of said court then in attendance and said bar shall elect one of it's members to try said cause as district judge pro tempore. The compensation of the district judge pro tempore shall be twenty dollars per diem, which shall be paid them the treasury."-Chitina Leader.

location. According to the telegraphic report received, Judge Brown has been reversed, the contention of the plain tiff sustained, and the title to the ground given 10 Sutherland.
 The case is one of several that ex- cited great deal of comment in the Sushanna district for several years. Gold was first discovered in the shu shanna in 1913, and man named Will liam James of Dawson, Y. r. hearing of the same rushed into the new camr accompanied by G. l.. Gates, N. F. Mckinney and William Johnson, and located about twenty claims for them selves and about twenty more by DOW CT of attorney. Other prospectors, who arrived later, found the best ground practically all located, as1hey claimed "blanketed,' and many of the claims so located by proxy were re- located by the later arrivals, and out of this condition grew the controversy. Judge Tucker arrived in the camp during the month of August, 1913, and was later employed 10 represent many of the litigants.

ALAskA MINING LAW
IS UPHEl

The circuit court of appeals has de- cided that the failure to record a pow CT of attorney in Alaska invalidates title to a mining claim. thus interpret ing the Wickersham act, as passed by congress in 1912, This is a decision growing out of the Sushanna strike, and the case involved was instituted in the Third division, at Cordova, brought by Dan Sutherland vs. F. w. Purdy. o. A. Tucker. now of the Ju- neau bar, filed the suit. and during the trial at Cordova, associated with him were Messrs. T. J. Donohoe and E. E. Ritchie.
 The legal points involved included the question as to whether it were necessary to record a power of at- torney before the location of the claim. The plaintiff. through his attorney, in- sisted that the recording of the power of attorney was a prerequisite to the location. The court, then sitting at Cordova, held that the recording prior to location was not a prerequisite to

LIFE.

Life is what we make il; to each, according to his light, it bears a differ ent phase; a bubble to the frivolous; joke to the blastphemer; terrible to the dissipated; serious to the thinker; grand to the big of soul; wonderful to those who love. To those who realize the unsolved mystery of our yesteryear and the farness of the in- finite beyond, it is but tiny space of time allotted mortals in which to per feet themselves against the inevitable. But to all of us, it is the one thing We prize most. and the thing We strug- gle and strive to keep. so long as san ity remains within us.-A D. McC.

NOME, ALASKA, SEPT. IS, 1916.

The proposal of the Mexican Amer ican commission to solve the question of border protection by both parties agreeing to maintain an armed patrol of their respective side of the border, is doubtless animated by spirit of leniency for the present governmental weakness of our neighbor republic. Were 1t not that the defacto govern ment is totally unable to maintain an adequate control of it's own citizens such an arrangement would assured ly have no other effect that to add ton of the administration for dilly dallying in all matters pertaining 10 Mexico.
 By all rules Of international puroce- ~s.Na s..S S....~- ---~-~ -.o,.. 10 demand of any state whose borders impinge upon it's own, that the gov ernment Of the contiguous nation shall so far maintain control of it's people that their acts shall in no degree jeo- pardize the lives or property of Am- erican citizens. Not only has it the right to demand that all necessary tion, but is also granted the equally just right of taking such steps as may necessary action in the event that unwarranted offenses against the national peace and dignity are permitted to continue by neighboring government.
 Were the situation other than as 1t IS, the failure of Mexico to take all possible steps to prevent a continu- ance of Delligerent incursions by it's recognized citizens on the soil of the United States, could be looked upon as q just cause of offense, even to the extent of being made the basis of &C., tive hostilities between the two gov ernments.
 In view Of the fact that the state constitutes itself the nominal guardian of it's citizens, a government which disregards it's obligation to protect, as far as may be consistently possible, the lives and possessions of it's neigh bors from the illegal activities of it's own citizens during times of peace, is fully as culpable as the policeman | who knowingly permits a burglar or | other malfactor to operate without | molestation.
 The fact that the state does not ex- ercise complete control over the indi- | vidual acts of it's citizens in no de- l gree exempts 1t from responsibility in the matter of preventing their in- diyidual activities from injuring the l lives and possession of the citizens of | neighboring states.
 In the case of Mexico. however, it so | happens that there is a serious oues- ton of the ability of the ae facto |
 
 control of it's people to prevent the ! perpetration of acts which might ordi- l narily be restrained.
 In the absence of a complete govern mental control of the country it can not reasonably be expected that Mexi- l co can take upon herself the full duties and responsibilities of a settled state.
 In it's present disorganized eondi- tion 1t is hardly possible that the Mex. ican government can, alone and unaid- l ed. prevent the more lawiess spirited | from committing depredations such as | have occurred along the border from | time to time. However willing the de | facto government might be, it certain F possesses neither equipment or
