Teddy has finally vindicated
himself as an advocate of the j
square deal, by refusing to reap
point Judge James Wickersham to
the bench, in the face of the oppo
sition of a large number of the res
idents of this district As was
stated in these columns a vear ago,
when a judge has as many oppos
ing him in his district as Wicker
>ham has, he has outlived his use
fulness as a judge. Wo have
never claimed that there was any
thing to he said against the judge
from the standpoint of honor or in
tegrity, but we were representing
the feeling of a very large ma
jority of the people here when we
said that he hud outlived his use
fulness and should he removed.
The squabble over his office has
meant the loss of considerable
money, and has been the means of
delaying the development of this
-eetion to a great exient. It is a
bad hffa.ii well settled.
Sneaking of the change of venue
in the Berner hay cases, the Jun
eau Transcript saj’s:
A judge should try the case in
accordance with the law and the
evidence, for there is another man
higher up, to whom the lawyer
who thinks he didn’t get a square
deal can appeal. Of what good is
in honest judge to any people if,
when his honesty is questioned by
some attorney working for a con
tingent fee, he stops "hewing” and
hands his ax over to some man
who will make the chips fall where
some attorneys want them to’fall.
And all the worse for the mine
owner when the “hewer” to takej
(he ax is a man to whom the sen
ate of the United States has refused
to give a certificate that he will let
the chips fall in the basket of
justice.
Delegate Gale declared with a
*ood deal of vehemence during his
campaign that the first bill he
would introduce in Congress would
»o an amendment to the Alaska
^aooe law, making the “open
reason” for killing lawyers from
January 1st to December 31st of
each year.
Captain Frank Moore is getting
in the habit of breaking records
ately and there is no telling where
he will stop. Possibly the hole in
side of the Saratoga accelerated his
pace somewhat going down last
trip.
