-24th-
The "Times" this morning has the
story that Judge Reid has authority
from the Attorney-General to change
the residence of the Court and Court
officials to Valdes. The least
harmful effect of this action will
be to divide the courts work at
this place and double his salary,
since he will get all his expenses
while holding court here, where
he ought to remain at least
10 months out of the year. My
expense account was always
small because I was forced
to remain in Fairbanks the greater
part of the year. The removal
will be a blow to Fairbanks.
