 The agreement imposes a form of servitude upon the defendant which might lead to tragic consc- quences, and amounts to a mort gage on his brain

 The voting method is simple. The Indian t supplied with card with cutouts on the places where he is to mark crossy He lays this over the ballot and marks in wherever the stencil permits.
 An effort made in the Alaska Legislature three years ago to end this reprehens;be practice but it failed a.se to the stencil-yoed legislators having control Of your free territory.
 Stencil voting is product of what have been pleased to term the Unhoy Alliance of the First Divsion
 There other equally disgracefu practices il2 that alliance. Think of what was in James Wickershams mind when he started with Paul to make the Indians think he would make them ricn by suing the United States Government on their behalf
 Of course Wicl-ersham knew that he could never succeed because he could not start suit without special act of congress- which never would be forthcoming
 We state it very bluntly If you want the un- educated Indians of Alaska to rule Alaska vote with them tomorrow
 If you cast your ballot against this corrupt political machine you will vote for John Rustgard
 But if you cannot vote for either man and still preserve your self respect, then you are a better citizen if you leave the ballot alone.
 MIR RUSTGARD DOES NOT WANT A VOTE THAT COMES FROM A POLITICAL MACHINE. HE WANTS THE VOTES OF FEARLESS, HONEST CITIZENS
 EDITORIAL NOTE:-Mr. Rustgard recently ap- preached prominent Native leader and asked: What do your people think of me? Will they support me in this election?" The reply was with~ Cut any quibbling "Noi They don't like your re- cord of 12 years of service. Just what have yo;7 done to merit the support Of these people you have damned when you did not need them?"

 Evidently tt~is is contrary to the belief of the Bureau of Fisheries It has notified Kent Robinson, U. s. Commissioner at Cordova, that starting next year the Bureau will not permit it's cases to go into the Commissioners court as misdemeanors but would se.ze boats and gear and hold all vio- latOrs for the district court
 Thus the ordinary citizen judged arrested and branded guilty by any representative of , federal bureau, may be denied the right to pre- Hnlnary hearing which may decide the question whether not he should be put to the expense of J1laI m district court. In other words, the Bu- reau of Fisheries brushes aside this court of dis covery and seeks to impose the hearing of cases
 what would be an appellate court. It would be aS logical to skip the district court United States Court of Appeals, and go direct to the Unit ed States Supreme Court
 But one asks: Where do these agencies sub- stituted for constitutional government get their poWer?'
