DANGEROUS ENCROACHMENTS
The entire scheme of the United States government
pre-supposes a situation where a man’s guilt or inno
cence shall be determined by a jury of his alleged peers,
or where a jury is not sought, adjudication by properly
constituted representatives of the law-administration de
partment.
Evidently this is contrary to the beliefs of the Bur
eau of Fisheries. It has notified Kent Robinson, U. S.
Commissioner at Cordova, that starting next year the
Bureau will not permit its cases to go into the Commis
sioners’ court as misdemeanors, but would seize boats and
gear and hold all violators for the district court.
Thus the ordinary citizen, judged, arrested and
branded as guilty by any representative of a federal bur
eau, may be denied the right to a preliminary hearing
which may decide the question whether or not he should
be put to the expense of a trial in a district court. In oth
er words, the Bureau of Fisheries brushes aside this court
of discovery and seeks to impose the hearing of cases in
whaJt would be an appellate court. It would be as logical
to skip over the district court, United States Court of Ap
peals and go direct to the United Staltes Supreme Court.
But one asks: “Where do these agencies substituted
for constitutional government get their power?”
Well, when the President of the United States can
call out troops to eject war vdterans from United States
property, where they are conducting themselves in an or
derly manner and living like rabbits in a warren in an ef
fort to exist, anything can happen. In fact It is no secret
that Alaska is governed by this super-bureaucratic pow
f r and things equally obnoxious are being done every day
by satrapy which would have awakened rebellion in any
country.
The action of the Bureau of Fisheries plainly inter
preted, means an impeachment of every United States
Commissioner in Alaska with (the veiled innuendo they
are biased in favor of the people. Unless we have scrap
ped the word “Democracy” (the people) this alleged bias
is merely an expression of public desire, and harmonizes
with what was intended by the structure of American
government.
But this bureaucratic encroachment has read into
the constitution many things not dreamed of by its fram
ers. We are up against centralized despotism which is rap
idly sweeping aw’ay the last vestige of American inde
pendence. Mr. Henry 0‘Malley’s department only adds to
the antipathy grown up about it by this last bold stroke
to rule or ruin.
