THE GRAND JURY
Among Other Suggestions Recom
mends New Mining District
for Kuskokwim.
Following is llie report of the
grand jury empanelled at Dil
lingham made to Judge Jennings,
who presided over I he floating
court:
Wo, the grand jury, duly em
panelled and sworn to serve at
the special August i, 1913, term
of the above entitled court, re
spectfully submit this as our final
report.
We have carefully investigated
all the cases brought before us
and have returned three “true
bills” and one “not a true'hill”
and in the course of these inves
tigations have examined 12 wit
nesses.
We have inspected the follow.,
ing offices pertaining to the
courts of justice for this divis
ion, to-wil: The United Stales
marshal’s olfice, the* distinct at
torney’s olfice, the olfice of the
clerk of the court and the United
States commissioner’s olfice for
the Bristol bay precinct and we
lind the above named olfices to
be in excellent condition.
We respectfully represent to
this honorable Court that there
is a large area of this judicial di
vision, from the Nushagak riv
er to the Kuskokwim liver and
from the coast to the mountains
where there is neither a United
States commissioner nor a dep
uty marshal; where there are
many natives resident; where
thefr'e are a number of mining
settlements and a number of
trading stations, of all of which
but little general or special
knowledge is had, L<* the end that
violations of the laws are not
properly regulated. We there
fore recommend that during the
coming winter the Depart ment ol
Justice cause a full investigation
of said section of this division to
ne made.
W’c recommend that I ho sys
tem nr nmkiiig. enminissioners
win illy ili'iii'iuli'iil n 1 > < > 11 foes earn
ed fur their salaries he changed,
as I lie fees earned liy commis
siuners in outlying precincts arc
not sulVicicui to induce ..ipe
tenl men to accept the position.
W'c further suggest tlial I he
present laws lie amended so as
to provide for the payment lo the
United Slates commissioner of a
minimum -salary of $1,000 per
annum, wilh additional compen
sation to lie derived from the
earnings of the office, so that. Ihe
total salary per annum shall not
exceed $3,000.
W'c recommend that mail he
delivered at Dillingham post of
fice I wire each month for the
month's from May lo September,
inclusive, the mail boat to re
main at Dillingham 2t hours.
We further recommend, .that,
the winter mail come in’by I In
way of Uiamna for the months
from October lo April inclusive,
one mail each month, this route
to end at Dillingham and that the
mail come from Uiamna, down
Lake Uamna and the Kviehak riv
er to Koggiung, thence to Naknek
and from there to Dillingham,
We also recommend that ii
branch route he established to
start from Naknek and extend
down the (-oast as far as Ugashik,
to include Ugagek.
We respectfully 'r((“1ominc|r1d
that a launch he furnished by-the
government for use at Dillingham
and one for use at Naknek as rec
oinmended by the, grand jury
which convened at Dillingham in
the summer of 1912, to be used
by all government officials and
for all emergency calls.
We recommend that the jail at
Dillingham be moved lo Chog
giung.
We recommend thal prior to
the departure from San Francis
co, Portland or other ports of
the states to Bristol bay, of the
various vessels employed in the
fisheries in Alaska, a more com
plete search for and removal of
any lirearm or dangerous weap
on therefrom be made, if such ac
tion can be legally done, to the
end that provocation or oppor
tunity of violence and crime may
be lessened.
We earnestly recommend that
his excellency, Governor Strong,
of Alaska, be authorized to ac
company the U .S. court officials
during the coming season to
Bristol bay, that he may make
personal investigation of the
conditions here and therefrom
recommend lo the administration
and to (he territorial legislature
satisfactory and remedial regula
tions and laws.
In conclusion, we wish to thank
this honorable Court and its of
ficials for their assistance in prc
'Sonling all cases and matters de
sired to be investigated to this
grand jury.
