Judge Wicktrshmn is .1 lianucrims man,
in that he has exhibited in tin- past all
the tendencies uf an autocrat. A man
that loves poiver lor tile opportunities
which it brings, he is without the coin
{lensuting qualities which would make
him a safe or desirable man to till au\
position of power or trust. Not lacking
in self-assertiveness, nor imbued with a
gp.o hs: estimate of h:s own abilities, he
would build up :\ little olig. rchv of bis
own to crush all those who might hav
the temerity to oppose his w i- ties or de
Mies—and reward his hcnehii en with'
what little largesse he chose to dole out
to them.
Charges of the most serious nature
that have ever heeti urged against a judi- ;
cial officer in Alaska have Wen made, 1
iterated and reiterated by the Rampart I
Forum, judge Wickcrsham Wing the!
target. No attempt, so fur as this news- !
papier is informed, has been made to]
r.fute them. Therelore, it is believed, :
that in view of the recent ‘'comptica
tions” that have arisen between Mrady
aud Wickersham, the president could not
do better tliau eliminate both from ©IB* •
ciai life.—From an editorial in the Route
RtegXfi
It is quite true that charges, as
stated, have been “made, iterated
aud reiterated by the Rampart Fo
rum,” until, indeed, it is suggestive
of a slot machine wherein the drop
ping of ay;oiu will start the doleful
grinding of the s.itne old tune again.
One could almost wish th.t the
president would accept the Nug
get's view, just to see if ihe old
automaton would strike up a live
Iter air.
But it is probable that neither
the Forum'* iteration nor the Nug
get'* suggestion will carry much
tu&ttem c one way or the other

busy to get off as light an be did,
only one pack 1 wring lost.
At ordinary stage* of water the*
horses are used to traveling in the
tied of the creek, ami it is ilrnust
impossible for one man to keep a
train of six or eight horses out, as
the trail ia so very bad they will
break for the water no matter bow
high it may be. It is simply a
wonder the whole train was not
loat. as the water was very high
and swift.
