THE ALASKAN BOUNDRY

Some days ago the Chicago Tribune

published a statement of the Hon. David Mills, Canadian Minister of Justice concerning the Alaskan boun- d-ary dispute. In making comment on the subject that Journal saysz-

“Doubtless the Dominion oincials be-

lieve in the justice of their claim, as the United States authorities believe in the justice of theirs, but the former would not press that claim with so much earn- estness if they did not feel that there was great need of some of that territory the title of which is in dispite between the two countries. They want the Dom- inion to have jurisdiction over a strip ot land reaching from the Klondyko to Lynn Inlet and tue waters of the ocean, so that Canadian goods can be tran-

-That is why the Minister of Justice

says the possession of the inlet is of great consequence to us. It is of little importance to you.’ So in 1842 it seemed a matter of much importance to Great Britain and the Canadians that the northern boundary of Maine should not be as near the St. Lawrence as the American contention made it.- the ter- ritory which Great Britain was soieager to get was of comparatively little impor- tance to the United States for any pur- pose. Therefore Mr. Webster did not hesitate to give it up.

It is a for.unate business firm that has heredi'ary endow- ment of honesty, industry and perseverance, but these are not of themselves sufllcie t to insure the highest success. It must be open to the influence of environment--in close sym- pathy with the spirit of rn- grcss-and quick to adiiipt ni_odern ways and means. We are ever on the alert for the best tools, and to adopt niodern methods in order to give our customers the very best satisfaction on work en- tru=ted to our care. Give us a trial and see if we do not speak tiuly.

The question tor the United States to

determine now is whether that harbor on Lynn Inlet and the territory back of it the Canadians hanker after is of so much importance to this country that its surrender under any circumstances would be im litic There is o

po . n special

sacrednesa attaching to Alaskan soil. There are no sentimental associations connected with Lynn Inlet. The ques- tion is cne which involves only business considerations.

There are half a dozen unadjusted

questions between the United States and the Dominion. They ought to be st ttled so that the friendly relations of the two neighboring countries, each of which does so much business with the other, may not be disturbed. Those questions cannot be settled unless the Alaskan question is settled. Then an earnest attempt should be made to dis-

importance to the United States. then

upon the action of the witness in the Bram case who was relsased on bail says.-

°~The witness who was released on

bail and who has now voluntarily elected to return to tie custody of the ' United States autho. ities. and to receive his $1 per diem, together .with his

board, at the public expe% furnishes another reminder of the rations of the law’s delay in this case, There have been frequent expressions of sympathy for these witnesses, on ac. count of their long detention, but, if they are all 1ike.minded with this re- turned penitent, thtre would seem to be no occasion for iurther demonstrat- ions ot this character. As a matter ol tact, some of them reckon themselves rather fortunate than otherwise. .But it is a rather expensive experience for Uncle Sam, who is obliged to maintain these witnesses in idleness until the case with which they are identified is finally settled by the courts.”
