ALASKA SUPREME COl'IiT.
Recently Dan Sutherland, delegate from Alaska, introduced a bill
In congress, providing for the establishment or a Supreme Court of Alaska.
The idea of the Delegate, evidently to make It more reasonable for litigants
to appeal their cases, is right, but it would appear that his method of
relieving the conditions as they exist are inadequate and not such as will
accomplish the ends desired.
The Delegate would have the Supreme Court made up of four
judges, the justices of the district court, of whom one would be chief
justice. He would also hi^ve it that on appeal the judge sitting in the
district court could notsit as supremo justice. Under certain conditions
such an arrangement might prove particularly satisfactory, but not in
Alaska today.
First, It would be unfair and impossible to impose any more work
on the judge of the district court of the First Division. I^e is holding
court practically the entire year. The few weeks intervening between
sessions are needed to clean up the many matters which have been imposed
' on the judges in addition to thetr strictly judicial work, and also to dispose
of the thousand and one items of detail in connection with rases, the
docket, the journal, I ho .indigent fund, the commissionevshin. the estab
lishment of precincts, and tho like.
Second, any time that the judge of the First division might have
a week in which he ought to rest, but which might he devoted to Supreme
Court duties, if necessary, it probably would be* impossible to iind ony
other district judge in Alaska who at the same time would have his
affairs in such shupe that he could meet with the judge of the First divi
sion. And if it would he difficult to get two of them with the time at
the same time, it would be much more difficult to have three of them.
Third, the Second division is so cut nif from the rest of Alaska that
for seven months in the year it would not be feasible for him to come out.
nor proper for that division to he without a judge during his absence if
he did make the trip out.
These are hut a few of the important reasons why the plan should
not be adopted.
Alaska should have a supreme court, as the delegate evidently has
come to believe. The litigants are entitled to it, for it. now is inconven
ient and too expensive for an Alaskan to carry his cases to the present
Appeliate Court of California.—Exchange.
YOU11 PRESENT MAKES YOUR PAST.
(“Uncommon Sense” hy John Blake in Seattle P. I.)
The time to consider your past is while you are making it. What
you did yesterday is likely to be a cause or regret unless you bore in mind
yesterday that you were makihg your past.
Stand on the shore of a stream and watch the current rushing hy.
The drift that is now far above you will soon be swept down stream.
There may he in it something you would like very much to possess a
stray canoe or fire.-wood which will he valuable to* you if you are a camper.
Seize it when it passes and it is yours. Let it go and it is gone
forever.
You will always be judged, and rightly judged, by what you have
done. The man with achievement behind him is sure of the future.
But the achievement must be there, in plain sight, where it can be
exhibited to the prospective employer.
Consider today when you go to work that you are making that
achievement—that you are forming the past upon which your future
depends.
Don’t worry if you are not making a great deal off money the
while. Better to do the Job carefully and do it right than to try to get
rich out of it.
The practice will be useful, and you will sell the ability you are
piling up today for good prices by and by—provided It Is real useful ability.
* If you begin making a past now, with the .idea that it is to work for
you in the future, you will make the right kind of one.
If you think that everything you do will, like, the words of a wit
ness, be used for you or against you later on, you will be a little more
The present is merely the past—under construction.
Build tllmslly and the structure will always be there for men to
behold, and U> decide. Build solidly- and carefully and the edifice will
inspire men with respect for you, and with confidence in what you can d«^
In the future.
YoU*can live on your past, if it is good enough. You never can
live on your future.
