NATIVE BLAMED 1X)R
DOWNFALL WHITE MAX
I Juneau Empire: When Matt
Carlson was called before Judge
Jennings this moraing to register
of selling liquor to la native on
his plea ill response to tho charge
which he had been indicted by the
grand jury, John G. Held as Carl
son's attorney asked that the court
be lenient in pronouncing sentence
on the ground that although he
has been a resident of Alaska for
17 years, this is the first time he
has ever been called into court.
"On the other hand," said Mr. Held,
"the Indian to whom ho sold the li
quor has been In the courts on one
count or another for the past 25
years. I have known of in numeral'®
times when that Indian, Jake Wil
liams, has done this very same
thing—received liquor from a white
man, and I see no reason when he
is 'really at the bottom of it all; he
should go clear and even got paid i
for It."
"This man Carlson," continued |
Mr. Heid, "had been drinking, and |
he met Jake Williams, and he took
Jake's dollar and bought whiskey I
and at an appointed place gave the
Indian the liquor. He doesn't de
ny it. He says he's guilty. -But
I submit to the court that Carlson
was merely a tool for a man who
is as big a scoundrel as ever lived
outside of a penitentiary." 1
Before pronouncing sentence,
Judge Jennings warned Carlson that
j if convicted of the same offense a
| second timo he would bo surely
sent to McNeill's. Then, "It Is
the judgment of the court that you
i spend four months in the federal
I Jail at Juneau."
