Now that the grand jury has
given the .Senate a roast we may
expect to see them stand up and be
good. They do not mind being
roasted by the muck-rakers in the
magazines, but when such a body
as the Valdez Grand Jury censures
their actions it is time to take
notice.
Governor Hoggatt, after making
a tour of Alaska expresses the
opinion that a large majority of
the people of the country are op
posed to territorial government at
the present time. He has made a
careful study of the conditions that
exist ar.d he says it would be in
advisable now to undertake to snp
port such a government with so
little taxable property. He has
talked the matter over with • the
representative people of all sec
tions and finds very few supporters
of the territorial government idea.
Judge Gunnison advocates the
idea of having an itinerary judge
in Alaska, who can relieve the
judges in each division when they
need a rest. It has been our obser
vation that when a judge thinks
he needs a rest he takes it, in fact
most of them seem to be taking a
rest a large part of the time.
Valdez, is receiving visits from
a number of celebrities lately.
Judge Gunnison, Governor Hog*
gatt and many prominent mining
men and now we are to be favored
by a visit from a representative of
the Japanese government.
Bryan’s trip abroad does not ap
pear to have impaired his talking
powers in the least. Ii he con
tinues to orate from now until the
time of the presidential election he
wi'l have all records beaten.
N«»w the copper magnates from
the interior are beginning to ap
pear ami one can hear talk regard
ing bornite, glance, 000 foot ledges
and millions on every corner. One
prospector says there is so much
copper where he was working this
summer that even the water in the
swamps carried a green stain and
the grass was also tinged Jwith
green.
This last term of court is a good
argument for the division of the
Third district. Although court
has been in session over 30 days
the litigation is all unsettled, ex
cepting a few minor cases. We
reed a resident judge.
We have received a complete
shipment of fresh beef, mutton,
pork, veal and -pring chickens.

and bis achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
