FINE AND SENTENCE GIVEN

''The more o1 those disturbers of i the peace, who have suspended jail sentences hanging over their heads, the easier it will be to preserve or der" said Judge George G. GriSWold of the Berlin town court today, in reference 10 the brick yard situation. This is the practice of the court in regard to brick yard workers found guilty of disturbing the peace and when they are found guilty they are fined and given suspended sentences, usually of 80 days.
 The case which gave rise to the statment by Judge Griswold was that of John Scott, colored. who is employed at the yard. He was ar rested for breach of the peace by Of fcer Frank Brown last Thursday morning at about o'clock, He was tried in court last evening and was fined $25 and costs and was given q suspended sentence of 80 days in jail.
 Scott, with several other negroes, had been playing cards all night and one of them had been winning con sistently. When the game was over, one of the other men was winners and Scott demanded that his money be refunded, at the same time threatening his ersfwhile playmate with a knife. The playmate, accord ing to reports, was not overly frightened, but he returned the money to avoid q disturbance, and then called the police. Constable Brown responded gallantly and es- corted Scott to Jail.
 New Britain Men Fined Roy Johnson and Thomas smith Of New Britain were fined $5 and costs each for drunkenness. They were arrested at the Berlin depot on Saturday night, July 5, after they were alleged to have created dis turbanCe. They were brought into court on Tuesday evening.

Just what tho argument Was over did not seem clear when Felix was haled into court last night before Justice Will liam Cunningham on q charge of breach of tho peace. He pleaded guilty when the charge was brought by Grand Juror W. J. FOran, and as the oftcnsc did not appear 10 be serious Justice Cunningham let him off with a fine of g. and costs. II was at this point that Oborsik showed his vacillating temperament. Ii was at his instigation that Felix had been arrested and he had tosti- fled against the prisoner. but he now stepped up and paid the fine for him and the two left tho courtroom good friends once again,

CITIZENSHIP OF H.L. FAULK-
 MFR, PAUL REPLIES
FEBRUARY 7, 1926 ~o MT. Herbert l.. Faulkner,
 JUNEAU, Alaska,

JUNEAU, Alaska,
 Dear Sir;
 I would have been glad to pub fish your explanations of your cit izenship status, but you have al- ready given it wide publicity, so to save space, I will omit it in the February issue of my paper.
 The outstanding weakness of your defense is that your evidence is dead, with all due respect to the dead.
 was not the one who sent a marked copy of the ALASKA FISHERMAN about your recent naturalization to the Grand Jury, first, because I felt that that was a duty belonging to the office of the United States Attorney, and, secondly, because I felt that it would be of no use, as the event proved.
 felt justified in publishing the facts as they appeared, first, because the question of your cit izenship has been topic of gen. eral discussion for a number of years Secondly, because you are actively in politics and as such you are a fair topic of conversa- ;tion Third, because the events as they have reached the public seem to justify the belief that you were not citizen during the past years and that you were fully conscious of that fact. Fourth, because you have not heretofore made any statement purporting to answer the questions now discussed.
 The investigations and exonera- tion made by the Grand Jury was a rather strange procedure, was it not? Is it customary for the Grand Jury to call the objects of its inquiry before them to test ify? Will the United States Attor- uey Call OCHer perSoHS SuoPeCCeu of crime before the Grand Jury and thus give them the IMMUNITY bath? Of course your appearing before the Grand Jury was another exhibition of the "cleverness" for which you are famous for now you not only hold papers of citizen ship, but you have also gotten an immunity bath by your appearance before the Grand Jury since un- doubtly you will be able to prove that the United States Attorney
The Alaska fisherman., 1926-02-15
called you.

United States Attorney really ad- wise the Grand Jury as to the law of the case and the value of the evidence which you offered as en- titling you to the privilege of the special statute known as section 1852 (1O) of the Compiled Statutes?
 The facts which are of public record shows that on the 29th day of March, 1905, you made oath as follows;
 "I, Herbert L. Faulkner, of Ket- chikan, Alaska, do declare on oath, that it is bona fide my intention to become a citizen of the United States of America, and to renounce forever all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state of sovereignty whatever and particularly to Edward VII of Great Britain and Ireland of WHOM I AM NOW A SUBJECT,"
 And that you signed the same before D. c. Abrams, Deputy Clerk of the District Court of the United States, First Division, Alaska, at Ketchikan.
 Was not this enough to justify me or anyone else in believing that you were not a citizen of the United States and that you KNEW it?
 I had talk with your brother in-law about the same subject last year, and he related to me a con- versation which he had had with you when he charged you face to face with being non-citizen of the United States, and he further said that you did not reply to him.
 During the time I lived in Juneau, it was the general com ment that you did not vote in the general elections. I remember on one occasion the newspaper said that you were out of town that day,and it appeared later that you had gone "up the Basin back of Juneau," an easy walk of about two hours. On the second occasion you again were out of town at Haines, the business being very urgent. On the other occasion you were for the moment at Peters burg. There you voted contrary to the laws of the United States as in such cases provided. On the last occasion you were CAM PAIGNING for the DEMOCRATIC TICKET, as you say, which is ex'
