THAT BURNS FINE
Although two weeks have elapsed
si ace the wild steer Incident, there are
people ia Skagway who seem to think
it the acme of citizenshiu to abuse
United States Court Commissioner
Le Fevre for baring imposed a fine
(total cost, the magnificent sum of
$$.50), upon Charles Burns, of the
Pacific Cold Storage Company, for per
mitting a vicious animal to run at
large in violation of a specific section
of the Alaskan code. If these men
would take 20 minutes to inform them
selves of the facts they would probably
permit this matter to become a closed
incident.
As a matter of fact Judge Le Fevre
oould not have done anything but what
he did do. A. F. Wild1;, a reputable
citizen of this town, acting within his J
rights, went into Judge Le Fevre's
office aad swore to a complaint, charg
ing Charles Burns with violating a
section of the criminal statutes. Judge
Le Fevre, as he was bound to do, issued
a warrant for the arrest of Mr. Burns.
The latter came into court and plead
guilty to the charge. Now let
any man of common sense say what the
court should have done. It does not
require a lawyer to understand that all
he could do was to impose a tine.
Mr, Burns did not plead that there
had been no breach ef the law. He did
not claim that he was not responsible
for the breach. He did not even re
quire the accusing witness to prove his
responsibility. He admitted it bv plead
ing guilty. He left absolutely no al
ternates for the court but to pro
nounce sentence.
After questioning Mr. Burns, who
was treated in a manner for which he
thanked the court, Judge Le Fevre de
termined that there were extenuating
circumstances, and he remitted the
$10 fine, which he had imposed, leaving
costs to the amount of $8.50 for Mr
Burns to pay.
That is a very simple tale to cause so
much smoke, but it Is a true tale.

The Hearstites of California have
organized an "Independent League"
and have nominated a full state ticket.
William H. Langdon, elected county
attorney jor San Francisco on the lick,
et with Mayor Schmitz, is the candi
date for governor. It is believed the
ticket disposes of any possibility of
democratic success in that state, not
withstanding that the republican con
vention was controlled by the Southern
Pacific. But, if the Hearstites are
correct, the democratic convention was
*lso controlled by the Southern Pac;fic.
Senator Foraker, who carried the
Ohio convention with him, declared
hi* independence from President Roose
velt and all "his bobbies and policies,
including spelling reform." He said
that he would follow the dictates of
his own conscience. Well Mr.
Senator, that is very well, but we will 1
know better what to think of it all
after we shall have heard you spell a
while according to the dictates of your
conaci ence.
There are two things that we would
advise some of those tories who have
imagined chat Juneau is all there is of
Alaska not to forget. (1) Thomas Cale
is the choice of each of three divisions
of Alaska for delegate to congress. (2)
The Nome and Fairbanks districts each
out-produce the Juneau district as well
as outvot# it? and the out-producing
majority is greater than the out-voting
majority.
The man in Alaska, no matter whence
be hails or how high his official posi
tion, who attempts to stand between the
delegetes the people have choson to
represent them In congress and the
acquisition of. that to secure which they
were elected, is an enemy of the dis
trict and should be treated as such.
I the people of Alaska had not ex
Dreaded themselves in favoring legisla
tion that is opposed by Gov. Hoggatt is
it likely that he would have been so
eertaln of his position that the people
do not require legislation?
