BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Mrs. Agnes Dillon was struck by an
automobile. carrying license tags OF
another State.
She was badly hurt, and when she
recovered she placed her claim for
damages in the hands of her attor-
ney and turned over to him the num-
bers of the license plates, which sew
eral witnesses had made a note of and
had given to her.
The attorney drew up the necessary
papers, made trip to the car owners
State and entered suit there against
him for the injuries he had caused.
The car owner at the trial admitted
that his car had struck the woman,
but denied that Mrs. Dillon had the
right to come TO his State TO enter
suit against him. lie claimed that as
the accident had occurred in her State,
that was the only place that suit
could be brought,
But the court oVerruled his defense
on the following principle:
If an injury is done 10 a person,
the action is 'transitory'; that is, the
liability is personal to the wrongdoer,
following him wherever he may go.
so that compensation may be exacted
from him in any court which can
obtain jurisdiction over him"

Under this law the Attorney General could not question the legality of any bureau cratic policy, no matter how ad- versely the people of the Territory might be affected thereby, unless in. structed to do so by Bureaucrats and these Bureaucrats are not go. ing to so instruct him as the per- atty for doing so would probably be the loss of their jobs Back G. all the Bureau regulations that are imposed on the people of Alaska are the laws of Congress- Very oft en the Bureaus stretch the powers given them by law and sometimes assume autOcratic powers which Congress never intended they should exercise. When the exercise of such powers becomes irksome and intol- erable to the people, where does their redress lie? Through the channel provided by the Constitu- tiOn,-the courts? The legislature of 1921 in this same chapter 25, provided that the Attorney General should ''protect the interests of the Territory and its people before the United States Shipping Board, the Interstate Commerce Commission, or any other Bureau, Board, Com mittee, Commission or officer of the United States or any of the States of the Union."
 These are very broad powers in- deed, but then the legislature plac- ed Bureaucratic guards between the Attorney General and the Bureaus, Courts and Commissions who are there to see to 1t that he shall not pass to defend the rights of the people as provided for in he Act.
 As an illustration of the perni- cious effect of placing the right of the people to access to the courts, through the medium of the Attor- ney General, in the control of off, cia1s who are not responsible to the voters, the attitude of the Cover
The Alaska fisherman., 1927-11-15

The results of the persistent eff forts of past legislatures to exalt Federal officials and disparage those selected by the people is best shown in the way they have muzzled our Attorney General.
 The people of Alaska are not generally aware of the fact that their one elective official, the At torney General, whose principal duty as defined in the law is de- fense of the rights of the Territory and it's people, is absolutely power less to perform any of the duties of his! office except by permission of the Governor, the Secretary, the Treasurer, or by any two of these officials. He is thus completely muzzled, and even though he might be disposed to question bureaucra. tici supremacy through the courts. he cannot do so.
 Chapter 25, Session Laws of 1921, entitled: "An Act to provide for the institution and maintenance by tho Territory, or in it's name, of various proceedings before courts of Justice and other tribunals and officers, to protect the rights or promote the interests of the people ,Of the Territory"
 This is a very high sounding title, and all through the Act the rights of the people are played ur to the nth degree, but a perusal of the Act will clearly show that the dear people of the Territory out of all this high flown phraseology re- ceived nothing beyond the privilege of. watching the bureaucrats insti- tue court proceedings against them- selves, performance for which the people have watched and will con- tinue to watch in vain.
 Section 1 of the Act confers DOW CT on the Attorney General and then transfers the powers to the Federal officials.
 Section 1: "Whenever the con-

'H'LoHitity or validity or any statute is seriously in doubt, and the enforcement of such statute at. fccts the Territory or a considerable portion of it's people or important industries therein, suits or actions may by the Attorney General be in- stituted in the name of the Terri constitutiOnality or validity of such law. And such proceedings may be had for that purpose either by means of suits to restrain, or by means of action to compel, the en- forCemcnt of such law, or by any other appropriate proceeding that will bring the question at issue fairly before the court. Or the Alt t0rncy General may for such pur. pose institute OF defend actions or suits for private individuals or cor- porations, and at the expense of the Territory whenever the import ance of the questions involved to the inhabitants of the Territory shall warrant it; BUT NO SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE INSTI- TUTED OR MAINTAINED IN THE NAME OF THE TERRITORY OR AT ITS EXPENSE EXCEPT WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE COVER NOR, SECRETARY AND TREAS URER OR ANY TWO OF THEM IN THE MANNER HEREINAFTER PROVIDED"
 Two of the officials in whose care the Attorney General is placed by this statute are in no way respOn- sible to the people of the Territory for their actions but they are res Donsible to Federal Bureaus for the positions they hold and the third member, the Treasurer is largely responsible to the Governor for his official acts. These officials would not act in the interest of the people to institute suit in their behalf if the Bureaus were involved and in nine cases out of ten the Bureaus
