miners will said to the L»ca! interc ut in
his tale. He is also happy in the time
of laum hinii his production; for just
now any kind of writing that treats of
rottenness in high places needs hut the

tin-mirth the iltithor has woven an ab
sorbing love story. The vicissitudes of
the contest are of vital interest.”
The characters ill the story are said
to lie easily recognizable as actors in the
real life of the Nome country at the time
covered by the story.
S OTtT STORY OF “THE SPOILERS.”
The following was found in a Nome
paper eredjted to the Seattle Post
Intelligencer of (let. .‘51. The Nome pa
per printed it without comment, which
it doubtless considered unnecessary:
(■turge V. iiorchsenius, clerk of the
court at Nome for four years, who re
signed in August after lighting charges
made against him for more than two
vents, arrived in the city yesterday on j
tin’ Victoria, and through Senator;
Spooner will present a lengthy stnte
mei t to President Roosevelt on the light
made against him and Judge Moore, in
which he charges certain I’nited States
senators, some of the biggest mining
operat< rs in the Nome district and gov
ernment officials with a conspiracy to
control the 1'nitod States court at Nome
for the purpose of securing posse-sion
of and looting some of the richest mines
' t the Nome district, belonging to poor
prospectors.
Mr. I’lHvli-ciiius < ■ mj»I in tit-ally denies
liit* statements that have been made to
tlif effect that his resignation was due
to trouble between himself and Judge
Moore, and in bis eonununieation to l>e
presented to the president states that
the tight against him originated . during
the term of Judge Noyes, when be re
fused to allow eertain parties to name
the jury in the Anvil creek mining suits.
The communication sets forth that
the light lias really been at Judge Moore
ovt r bis shoulders, and that it was in
stituted because it was found impossible
to control Judge Moore or approach him
in any manner.
“Judge Moore," be says, “is a man of
the people, ami the same consideration
is given to the prospector as to the head
of a big oi rporatiou in handling the
matt, rs that come before him in bis
oMiei.-l capacity.”
1 fob ritzsimmoiis lias brought suit in
the courts of New York against Major
(Tnirlds .1. Millen. claiming damages in
the sum of $ot),(KH) for slander. Miller
i~ the mail for whom Hob's wife dc
scserted him, and whom sin- intended
to marry after securing a divorce in
Dakota, for which purpose she bad act
ually taken up her residence ill that
state. The woman relented and re
turned to I’itzsilninoiis. Miller caused
to lie print' d a statement that Hob and
bis w ife w ere in collusion in a scheme
blackmail him. It i> fore this that the
«t it is now lining lit.
