ALASKA NEEDS A FIFTH
 JUDICIAL rIvlSioN

Congestion of court business at Jn- neau and Ketchilean. the injustice be- ing done to men charged with crime who are held in confinement for months awaiting trial. overwork of the judiciary and the best interests of development for the country demand that congress establish q Fifth Ju- dicial division of Alaslcn.
 An of the nrst division south of Prince Frederick Sound and Bannoff Islands, including the mainland. should comprise the Fifth Division. There Is as much work ct Juneau as any one
 judge can handle properly. with due
 confederation for his own health. and likewise there is an equal amount in
 Ketchilmn.
 In view of the fact that all expenses of ofiicial attending court at kctchi- kan who come from Juneau and other parts o6 the division are paid during the term, under the present system. it is certain that the government would not be called on to expend in excess of
 sso.ooo a year over the present cost. The service to thep ubaic would be 30 much more satisfactory that the cost would be insignificant.
 More important however. than the monetary consideration. is the injus- t1ce done many persons accused of crime. It is not unusual for mn, arrested early in the spirng at Kee- chdlnn, to be sent to Juneau to the federal Jail, only to be turned loose. sometimes without even going to trial. after he is brought back to Ketchikan. It s an outrageous injustice, one that should not be tolerated. The present system takes away from any defendant that right which the oonsti- tution clearly sets forth that he is en-
 titled to. and that is a speedy trial by
 Jury. Certainly eight months without
 facing Q jury od his peers cannot he said to be a speed trial"
 Then again there Is another con- sideration. The business enterprises o6 the Keachikan dtstlic ict are growing in number rapidly They will grow more rapidly in the next hve years. Where business is being carried on OH faree scale it is o6 the utmost im- portance that courts be near at hand. Constantly there are intunctions and other equity matters which ahould be taken up before courts and under the present syatem 1t can be done only at a tremendous cost and much delay. In many of the judicial districts of the United StAtes, the district courts have not nearly as much business for consideration as there Is in Ketchikan.
 The district has much more business than the Fourth division had when 1t
 WAS established. Last year more than
 five times as much court buaaness was
 transacted in Ketchiaan as in the sec- ond Juttcial Division. There Is cor tainly need for the court at Nome. and even greater need for one at Ketchi- lAn.
 Should the division be established, 1t would he necessary 10 have a bst. ter jail and courthouse but that Is necessary under pressnt conditions.
 Ketchilmn can secure the Fifth Ju- 6cda1 Division If 1t n1njses proper representations to Conzseas, xuch a showing as il Is possible to make. e.- Ketcht1nn Chronicle.

JACK FROST AS GOOD FRIEND
His Beneficial Effect Upon the Soil In
calcuiable, and He Performs
Other Services.

Let those who Will growl when
icicles hang on the wall. No millions
JACK Frost comes as a friend, and mot
always in disguise, either. ],
His influence on soil is wonderful
says London Tit-Bits. Besides reduc-
Ing It to q much finer state OF tillages
than can be produced by any nipple
ments known to man, 1t improves its
fertility and adds tosits quantity.
The highest counts Of bacteria In
soil--and there may be 100000, 600 In
grain-have been obtained in hard
winters, and It is during such seasons
that the disintegration Of rock which
produces fresh particles Of soil goes
on most rapidly.
AS water passes from the liquid to
the solid state It's expansive power Is
about 100 tons to square foot, which
Is equal to the weight or column or
rock about one-third OF mile in
height. Then comes the thaw, and as
the water contracts away crumbles the
surface Of the rock, to go to make
the soil from which we draw our sus-
tenance.
Out in the Cotswolds, when winter
is coming on, they turn blocks Of stone
grain upwards, SO that the rain shall
soak into the layers. A thaw succeeds
a frost, and then the blocks are tapped
with hammer, whereupon they fall
into fakes, ready, after q little trim
ming for roofing houses.
So, too, you may see the skaters
working at Collyweston, near Stam-
ford. When there Is a likelihood Of
frost, the men dash water on the edges
of the masses of slate which have been
brought up from the pits or quarries.
II there arc two frosts in rapid sue
cession, with quick thaw between,
all Is well. as the slate splits into lay
ers. But spell of mild weather
means that the material becomes use
less for anything except conversion
into rubble.
