The Alaska Daily Gnide, published at Skagway, says: 'G. M.

That combination ouglt to be a four time winner. His residence at pres ent is in J uneau." - In another column and under the head of "After Jndge Sehldrede" will be foend a little sketch from a Skagway, paper also a dispatch from Washington relative to some little irregularity in the commissioner's office. Mr Sehlbrede was appointed from Koseburg where he was prac ticing law and received his eppoint- r xnent through the influence of Hon. Geo. W. McBride, who was U. S. sen ator at that time, and others. It will , be noted that the Alaska paper qnot- - ed refers to tbe Washington author ties action in the matter, while tbe ' diepatch direct from Washington states that there are no charges in the department against Mr. Sehlbreda The jndge Las been on a two months leave of absence traversing tbe Yuk on river coantry and it is not unlikely ... that some local rivalry has arisen in - his absence of minor importance which he will be able to satisfactorily ' adjust on bis early return.

SI. 1'JUl EuiroB PLAt.MiKal.EB: In the daily R.view ol OX 21U. there appeared an article writteu by J. S. Garner in which ne makes some statemet ts wbicb are very iuialea ling. He says tne only rea so i mat ins bridge on Utile Utver was not commenced sooner was because out bridge carpenter was engaged in other work. Njw tbs f sett are it was because tha bill of lumber could not be sawed ont any soaner, in fact, tbe material waa not all on tbe ground at the time he did commence. 4 to tbe proficiency of Mr. Jennie, I can cite Mr. Garner to eight or ten new covered bridges in the Cobnty which all speak for themselves. And, a to the site ol the bridge, I have be lure me a petition signed by thirty-Are resi dents snd householders asking for tbe removal of tbe bridge to the site now se lected. Is it very likely tbat a number of taxpayers would ask for a piopositlon if it was to dangerous? Aad as for tbe spaa of tbe bridge; I assisted in measuring the river and the measure-' ment from bank to bank wjs 100 feet. Now I don't wsnt Mr. Garner to think tbat I accuse bim ut willfully misstating tbe matter, but he is very misleading to tbe statement. I am welt aware that Mr. Gtrner would prefer to have the bridge rebuilt at the old site. I: would be more couvient lor bioo, bat how about tbe ctber fellows? ' j am also aware that the good people iu the sec tion about Glide will meet with a great deal of inconvienre thh wio'er. but I bops they will take a sensible view of tbe matter. The county court after adviaiog with men tbat onitht to know, considered it unwise and nnanfe plan to erect tbe bridge so late ia the fall, when' there was so niacb d tng r of loosing tbe bridge by big'twaier Tbs only reason I make any reply to Mr Garner is tbat be publid position I occupy ca'li for iins explanation tf the County busi- .
