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.

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

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.”
