“The House That Quality Built”
Hides like an Ostrich
j At Juneau and since returning
lliom Juneau where he was a “star”
' witness for the gofernment in its
case against Neil MacGregor, C. V
j Brown, deputy U. S. Marshal at Pe
Itersburg is quoted as saying: “I
am very sorry for Mr. MacGregor
but I assure you that I had nothing
to do with the case. Louis Paul
and Mr. Enge are the ones, they are
hack of the whole fight on Mac
Gregor. I would drop the case in a
minute.”
On the stand when he testified
for prosecution in this case ,Mr.
Brown in his sworn testimony de
clared that when he took over the
federal building here, there was not
a ton of coal in the bins therefore
any effort by defendant to prove he
had purchased coal before leaving
vras an untruth. Clifford Roundtree
refuted this falsehood by showing
his books as drayman as having de
livered four tons of coal contrary to
statment by Brown. Sworn testimony
yet varying from the truth —what
is to be expected when Mr. Brown
now wishes to cover up his tracks
and get back into the good graces of
local people.
When carpet bag Brown first
came to Petersburg he came agun
ning for MacGregor. He walked to
the bins and said that he could show
that MacGregor had misappropriated
, funds and not purchased coal as was
vouchered for; that MacGregor had
had converted to his own use funds
belonging to a Mrs. Casperson, ad
judged insane and that he was “go
ing to get him”—(MacGregor). He
was investigating MacGregor’s re
cord and in the course of his investi
gations requested verification of his
aLeged findings. We repeated whac
was common report, only for what it
w&3. Brown discovered certain oth
er alleged discrepancies in accounts
and finally presente the matter to
lrs superior, Marshal White. The
matter reaching district tattorney's
(office was presented to the grand
jury which found a “true bill ’
against defendant.
“Investigations” were continued
by other federal investigators as on
ly such investigators can make them
—with regard only for conviction
\11 evidence presented by MacGreg
or in his own defense was ignored
though he was promised it would be
given due consideration.
Now, “Paul and Enge” did it and
are doing it. Public sentiment was
muchly against prosecution in the
case when presented at Juneau and
the guilty conscience is somewhat
far from being at ease so there must
be a “goat.” And Paul and Enge
will make good ones—the one be
j cause he is more or less helpless to
defend himself and in the other—hi
j “hasn’t any friends, anyhow.” But
! the Anannias of the marshal’s office
in Petersburg has barked up the
wrong tree—we refuse to run like a
yellow cur—even from the marshal
Now let’s see if Paul persecuted the
case at Juneau by perjuring him
se'f; or required that defendant
post bonds in the sum of $4,000 and
to hold him (defendant) in strict
custody until said bail was approv
ed when alleged amount of misap
propriation did not exceed $400.:
ai;d it was Paul and Enge who
showed a spirit of animous and
vindictiveness throughout the whole
trial; it was Paul and Enge who
procured all the evidence against
defendant in the case; it was Paul
and Enge who refused to admit evi
dence which would disprove the
charges; it was Paul and Enge
wb i did not care to have it shown
that defendant did spend fuel auth
orization other than for coal, but
was to the benefit of the jail and no
moral turpitude was involved; it
was Paul and Enge who declared
that defendant did not make ANf
trips with his boat and subverted
federal funds to his own advantage;
It wTas Paul and Enge who deliber
ately lied in summing up the case
before the jury by declaring no boat
trips had been made when the re
cords of the deputy, the records of
the local federal marshal's office ani
the records of the local Commis
sioner would have to be doctored to
defraud the government and the of
fiicials would have to connive to de.
f»aud the government; it was Paul
and Enge who furnished the photo
static copies of checks alleged to
nave been issued to misappropriate
federal funds; and it is Paul and
Enge who insist that the case be
brought up before the next term of
court at Ketchikan. These two
men are all powerful, they can or
der the district attorney’s office to
continue wrhat has been termed in
Juneau as the worst travesty of
justice ever perpetrated in any Alas
ka court.
Since the death sentence of Tex
Gill, Brown has damned THE ALAS
KAN at every opportunity and vein
ed his spleen in a most obscene but
■ natural way. After having gotten
* in bad with everyone in Petersburg
as he has in every other town where
he has been stationed, he now wishes
to get back into the good graces of
those whose respect he has lost and
hopes so to do by turning his an;-_
rnous on Paul and Enge.
Tell another one.
“Lay on McDuff, and damned be
he who cries, ‘hold, enough.”
A CASE TO PROSECUTE
ed the deer in violation of law and
Brown helped unload the dingy
for Mantan to go ashore and helped
pull the deer aboard the gasboat
and was therefore an accessory to
the act.
4. Deer killed by David Paul and
stored in cold storage as evidence
disappeared, but affidavit was made
that Mantan helped load four of
them on a truck, took them to the
federal jail where he skinned them
and they were fed to the prisoners
Game Warden Terhune advised
David to return to Petersburg and
there put in writing the statements
he had made in the office of the Bio
logical Survey. David did this. Ter
hune sent deputy game warden Tay
7 or down to investigate and Taylor
was satisfied that the game laws had
been violated so he asked the men,
Joseph Johnson and Charley Man
tan to make affidavit. They did be
fore Commissioner Clausen. Tay
lor returned to Juneau with the affi
davits and presented them to Ter
hune who has been “so busy” that
he has been unable to find the affi
davits from their resting place in
the pidgeon holes of his desk.
The matter was filed with Dis
trict Attorney, the nobile defender
of our laws and prosecutor of ALL
vioJattors of our game laws. But a
bureaucrat is a king and the king
can do no wrong. We shall see.
The bureaucrats have bosses and
bosses on occasion crack the whip.
