gren, but not opened or ballot counted because the said Lovegren was not considered entitled to vote;" this was
 signed by the inspector and judges. Now it don't make any difference tc them who wrote this, or what influ- enced them to sign, if they signed il became the act of the election officers and the canvassing board could not go
 into and try out their actions or the legality of the Lovegren vote, that is
 for the courts in another action. All the returns showed the vote had not
 been counted for the reason above stated. This is not q mistake in tabu-
 Iation, if anything is a mistake in judg-
 ment or the arbitrary or fraudulent action of the election judges. The
 canva4ssing board cannot review their action as they are not a judicial body and exercise no judicial functions. Sc you see they canvassed and scrutinized ithe envelope, the vote was not lost, but Accounted for, (preserved If you will) for any other action that might be talk
 en with reference to sdd election, or the legality of said vote. Now what else did the canvassing board do? They scrutinized the registration and poll books; what did they find thepe ? It is safe to say. without successful contradiction, that they were unable to tell from such inspection whether the voter Lovegren had voted, and the
 Court is free to confess. from the facts before the canvassing board, he is in the same condition or frame of mind This, however, does not take in the evidence received by the Court in the case. which was taken only for the purposes heretofore mentioned: this levidence was not before the canvassins board. nnd they had no right to take evidence, they are controlled solely by the face of the return. Such was the finding of the canvaSSing board, as leNidenced by the resolution passed by that board at their first meeting-l mean the resolution passed without |any interlinea tion. The differences in
 the poll and registration books. the changes in the resolution and the resls- ons given for such differences and changes the Court will not pass upon lin this action.
 Taking the returns before them, all the canvassing board could do. how ever, was to find that the election board had refused to count the vote, for some reason of their own, whether voted or not voted. and they had no right to speculate on that. or refuse the judgment of the election board. For the purpose of this hearing the Court holds that it does not make any difference whether the vote was cast or not, and for some reason or other. whether rightfully or wrongfully. the election board refused to count it. it thereby became q rejected vote, no
 matter what words were used in the |certificate. that action cannot be re- viewed by the Court in a. nandamus
 proceeding. and if the Court cannot
 review it, certainly the canvassing board have no such power. To do otherwise would be to allow them to

CHAMBER OF COM. LEARNS CHARACTER
 OF NEW ALASKA ADMINISTRATION BILL

The plan for Alaska administrative control by resident board appointed by the government which was suggest ed by former Secretary of the Interior
 Franklin K. Lane shortly before his retirement from office. has been em- bodied in a House bill prepared by Representative Curry of California. The following details of the measure are contained in a telegram to the Chamber of Commerce, which, by the
 way. has changed it's name to the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce., from J. l.. McPterson. manager of the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. The message says:
 Curry bill provides for administra- tion (of) national property and inter ests in Alaska by (a) board of three.

kosUk MURDERER ESCAPES
 FROM pENiTENTiARv

Victor Meynaud, French Canadian who was convicted in the District Court in 1912 for the murder of a man n:,sned Sutze near kiana in 1911. es- capped from the federal penitentiary at
 Leavenworth, Kansas. during the fall Of 1918 and at last accounts was st Il at large with reward offered for his capture.
 The murder for which Meynaud was pose of rpbbing his victim of soue hundred and fifty or sixty dollars which Sutze was known to have on his person and was one of the most
 atrocious crimes in the history of thi,; section. By inducing Sutze to go on q rabbit hunt Meynaud succeeded in
 turing him into the hills short dis
 tance from Kiana and deliberately shot Satze in the back of the head with
 smnll caliber rifle. After relieving
 his victim of the money Meynaud left
 the body lying in the snow aud re- turned to his cabin. The body of the
 murdered man was found which was still warrl by two proEpcctors who hap pencd to see him lying in the snow while passing along neighboring hfll-
 side. Suspicion fell on Meynaud anl tthe murderer was arrested March :5 1911 and subquently brought to Nome. Owing to the dastardly character of his
 crime the attorneys then in Nome were reluctant to defend him and 1t was not tuntil considerable persuas sion had been brough to bear that Attorneys Q. D. Cochran and w. A. Gilmore under took the defense. As a result of their efforts Meynaud was induced to plead guilty to second degree murder and Twas saved from the hanging he so
 richly deserved. He was sentenced by District Judge C. D. Murana to serve forty years in the penitentiaay on May 10. 1912 and was later encarcerated in thes penitentiaryT at McNeirs Island. Washington. "A year later he was transferred to t.eavenworth. He es- capped from the latter institution Mo- vember l. 1918. after seven years con finement.

The Chamber also said that be- cause Of the vastness of the territory 1t would prefer q larger committee on which each division would have equal representation with odlces in each di- vision. In reply Mir. lEcPherson said: :

DISTRICT COURT DECIDES
 ELECTION CONTROVERSY

exercise a judicial function, which Is beyond their power as ministerial of- ficers.
 i To briefly summarize: The sist of
 this action Is to invoke the power of the Court in q maudamuS proceeding ! to compel the canvassing board to perform a duty which it Is claimed they failed to do. It ts conceded by both
 parties to the action that the duties of the canvassing boaId are purely minis- terial. If they have failed to perform lany such ministerial duty mandamus
 will lie to compel them to do so. If
 they have not failed in their per- foa1nance of such ministerial duties
 mandamus will not lbe to compel them to do anything in addition to what they have done.
 The facts in this case disclose that
 the election board passed up to the canvassing board with their return one
 ballot which they failed or refused to count. with their reasons therefore endorsed on the envelope containing the ballot.
 ] The reason assigned for not count ing the ballot may be valid or invalid, or their action in refusing to count the
 ballot may have been purely arbitrary,
 the reason assigned for not counting
 the ballot Is entirely irnmatehal for the
 purpose of this action. If their refuTal
 to count the ballot was wrongful, the
 legal remedy Is by another sort of action. The question presented here
 As was it psl.t of the ministerial duties of the canvassing board to have counted that ballot In canyassing the returns sent up to them. This the petitioner asks to have done by an order of the Count.
 The Court has reached the conclu- sion from the great prepOnderance of the authority on the subject, that 1t
 was not a part of the ministerial dR,- ties of the canvassing board to have counted that ballot. regardless of any
 reasons assigned by the election board for rejecting it. The authorities are
 uniform in holding that canvassing
 board connot revise the judgment of the election board in rejecting a ballot. and thus pass upon the qualifications
 of a voter for the second time. It fol- lows that If the canvassing board, could not lawfully do so. the Court Is powerless to command them to do so in Il mandamus proceeding. The aggrieved party Is not without la remedy in case the election board acts wrengfully and in violation of the rights of voters or candidates. or Is mistaken In it's judgment in rejecting la ballot. The validity of the whole proceeding may be tried out in an &C., tion for that purpose, or the agprieved
 party. if unlawfully deprived of his vote. has his remedy in q personal suit for damages, but it cannot be reached by an action in mandamus. The peremptory writ is hereby de- nied.
 Done in open Court this 18th day of May. 1920.
