OUR GREETINGS TO JUDGE
BROWN.
The appointment of Attorney
Frederick M. Brown, ol' Valdez,
as judge of this division to suc
ceed the lion. Peter 1). Overlield,
■whose term of office expires this
week, came as a surprise yester
day to the residents of Cordova.
While the Daily Alaskan had hop
ed that our townsman, John Y.
Ostrander, would be tendered the
nomination, President Wilson has
made a most excellent selection,
and we tender our congratula
tions to Judge Brown, against
whose ability, honesty and integ
rity naught can be said.
Having been a resident of Alas
ka for a great many years, dur
ing which lime he has widened
his circle of friends, the elevation
of Mr. Brown to the bench is a
tribute to his worth as an attor
ney and a recognition of those
qualities that go to make up ju
dicial timber.
That he will make good on the
bench there is no doubt, and in
<ioing so Judge Brown can rely
upon the united support and co
operation not only of the attor
neys but the entire people of the
Third division.
The new administration is
keeping its promise and appoint
ing Alaskans to fill the vacancies
in the federal-offices in the ter
ritory as fast as they occur, and
as a r_e.suIt conditions in the dif
ferent localities should improve,
to the etnd that a better feeling
be created and more confidence
inspired among the men and
women who are doing their part
to develop this new empire.--Cor
dova Alaskan.
FOOLISH JAMES.
We are disappointed in Dele
gate Wiekcrstiam again. He lias
gone off half-cocked, over an im
aginary sensation, and lie tins
been brought to earth by cold,
hard facts, losing caste belore the
Senate committee, before which
he lias every reason to desire to
appear great.
Yesterday lie made the bald an
sertiun before the Senate com
mittee that Senator Chamberlain,
who is the father of our railroad
bill in tin- SenaU, wan last ses
sion guilty of introducing a bill to
give to the (iuggenheims the Cor
dova harbor and the entrance to
Hie Bering river coal fields, and
that Senator Smoot aided him in
the attempt. Today Senators
Chamberlain and Smoot appeared
before the committee and proved
that our delegate lied to the com
mittee; that the hill in question
was introduced by Senator Clark
of Wyoming, and that Senators
Smoot and Chamberlain had no
thing to do with it.
sucn tnmgs man** us cross wnu
“Our Jim.” We do not believe
that wel are overly virtuous, or
appalled at misrepresentations, if
such misrepresentations can help
the cause of Alaska, but we feel
that we have the right to demand
that our delegate stick to the
truth when the false is so eas
ily proven against him. Chamber
lain is today our friend, and has
fought a bill through the Senate
committee which will be the mak
ing of the interior of Alaska. How
foolish it was of our delegate to
yesterday point out that our
friend of today was our enemy of
yesteryear—especially when such
was not the fact.
Such work makes us cross.—
Fairbanks News-Miner.
