The evidence produced at your

No man can go to the States and

sre the result caused by us enter

understand that this war is not
merely a conflict between Nations,
but a life and death struggle be
tween civilized Humanity and' mur
dering Autocracy. I feel proud my
self that our Nation is engaged in
this war of humanity for life and
liberty and I knoy you will when
you rt'urn to ns. As 1 wrote a
friend a short time ago: "i wisli
that every individual in our small
Alaskan towns could afford to make
pnd would make a trip to the States

TWO PALS THAT ARE INSEPARABLE
The iufantr.vman never parts with his rifle, even on his trips to "Blighty."
Here Is a Canadian Highlander taking advantage of a lull In the flghtlhg to
give a little attention to his nearest friend.
victed', I am sure, has not been ful
ly understood by many people. I
cannot but believe that some' of
those convicted of thig crime would,
not have been charged even with
th« same had. they understood' what
they »ere doing. 1 think this ap
plies to yourself. Your actions
since the trial show this to be so.
I am gratified, at this time, to
learn, through, your counsel, that
both you and your wife are at this
time subscribing members of the
Red Cross; that you have made lio
eral donations to the local Red
Cross corresponding to your means
and business; that you are willing
to sign food conservation cards as
soon as such are presented to you;
that you have subscribed tor bonds
to the Third' Liberty Loan in an
amount suitable to one in, your fin
ancial condition. Nothing that you
could have done could have giv
en me more pleasure than, these pa'
trioMc acts of yours. You have not
or.'v denied sedition, but you have
takeu steps to shtow. that you are a
loyal citizen.
Till* reports are that J\eteniKan w
trjing to show that one of every
thre>- tf its population has subscrib
ed rc the Third Liberty: Loan. In
the Second Liberty Loan, cwie out of
every tour of the entire population
cf Skagway subscribed to the bonds.
Skairwnv hK done its bit. With
your l'.elp and others we will do
still better; Had this matter been
properly understood by you, I atn
of tho opinion this case would never
j have come up. As it is you were
charged with the crime of sedition
land bv a jury of your own. neigh
[ bo-s. ;>:1 of whom I believe are hon
! e.-t. thoughtful and loyal citizens,
j you were found guilty. This same
i jury recommended leniency. The
Statute provides for the first offense
a penalty of as much, as $1000.00 or
imprisonment for one year, or both.
For 3 second conviction the penalty
is a line of $2000.00 AND imprisou
n.ent in the penitentiary for a per
i iod of uot more than two years.
I'l'Jiero is no OR in that case but
; there must be both, ftae and
imprisonment. In your case, I
believe, there will be no second of
fense. .. i
Taking into consideration the
recommendation of the jury, the
plea lor clemency of not only your
I own attorney but also by the Ass't
j L*. 5. Attorney, and the proof of
I patriotism and lovalyt shown by
! you, and above referred* to, It is
i the judgment of the Court that you
i pay a fine of $200.00 and also pay
; the costs of the action.
