j SUPREME COURT
1 FAVORED FOR
Jj i
£ Judge J. L. Reed, the Valdez at -
j: torney. who has been actively advo
j; eating the organization of a Supreme
■: Court for the Territory of Alaska,
has enlisted the support of Delegate
Wickersham in the matter and feels
that he Is making progress toward at
taining the new order which would
" he of vital importance to the people
of the north.
| Under the present system cases ap
' pealed from the district courts of
| Alaska are tried before the Circuit
1 Court of Appeals in San Francisco,
necessitating a heavy and unneces
' sary expense upon the litigants.
■ Judge Reed believes that if an or
, ganlzed effort was made by the mem
bers of tlie bars In the different divi
sions in Alaska and endorsed by the
| town councils, commercial organiza
| tlons and business men generally that
1 the department of Justice could be
1 prevailed upon to establish a Supreme
court in the territory. The additional
expense to the department would be
* nominal in comparison to the burden
. imposed upon the people of Alaska
under the present system.
The creation of a Supreme Court in
Alaska would necessitate the ap
pointmnt of an additional judge,
who would b’e empowered to act as
chief justice, with headquarters at
Juneau. The chief justice could
name associate justices to act with
him in reviewing the cases in which
appeals had been taken. For In
stance, should a case be apealed from
the ruling of the judge of the First
j Division, the chief justice could sum
rnon one of the judges from any of
the other three divisions to act as
associate justices. The chief justice,
would of necessity, be compelled to
travel to the division where his asso
ciate in the case under consideration
! resided but the expense incurred to
. the department would be small in
comparison to taking the case before
the Circuit C'ourt of Appeal in San
Francisco.
The delegate's letter to Judge Reed
follows
“I notice w'hat you say about the
organization of a local supreme court
for the Territory of Alaska and 1 am
coming to the conclusion tbfct we
must do it as soon as possible. The
expense of appealing to the Circuit
■ Court of Appeals at San Francisco is
so trenmdous that it Is practically a
bar to the administration of justice.
While I think that court is a superior
supreme court and find no objection
except the one of cost and expense,
that is such an obstacle that we may
| have to overcome it by creating our
| own Supreme Court.”

Conference on Americanization in this

comments on the»outrages committed
by partizans of the European bellig

' condemnatory. Hyphenated Ameri

Hull Moosers made a strong plea for
nationalism among Americans and pa
triotic devotion to the higher interests
of the country.
