Tin* very modest (?) demands of I'nrjrt# in the negotiations between tier and iIn* United Sta'cs in regard to the boiindry lint; which seperates tier from our possessions in Alaska, lias nl present laid the conference of tbe Joint High Commission up for repuirs. It leaks out now through English sources just why an agree inrnl wns not reached before an ad journment was had. England thinks i„ was through the uveraciou* incon sistency of Uncle Sam in not con senting to Canada's demands and it would seem us if t.iatis a righteous decision. Canada in her diplomacy in this ntfair hus shown plainly that the whelp is a worthy desoendent of tbe lion and shows the same weak ness for grabbing territory that does not belong to her that has ever char acterized the mother country. It is said she asks that the line be located on the east shore of the Lynn canal, a narrow strip of water extending many miles inland hut on a parallel with the ocean. Upon an arm there of on the east side of the canal lies the city of Juneau This territory was occupied and settled many years ago by Russia and no man ever ques tioned her claim and when the U. P. purchased ail the rights of Russia to that country the territory in contro versy was ceded to us by tbe right of that purchase. Since gold has been discovered in great quanliliis contiguous to tills territory the Cana (iiun customs oflicials in the nortli have forced the line west from its proper location so us to lake in a trail to the Klondike for the purpose of collecting custom dudes that they had no light to, and now they have concluded u sea port must be had and for that purpose they claim ter ritory to the Lynn canal. When the Vauci uver dispute was up years ago the jealousies of south tin slave holders toward the north played into the hands of Great Rri tain and gave them possession of a vast territory that justly was includ ed in our former purchases. Old rnen will siill remember the cry of our people of • fifty four forty or fight,’’ Rui English diplomacy coupled with Bout hern haired of free soil gave to them unreasonable demands. To-day the northern half of the western hemisphere presenis a different face and the old war cry, though modifi ed to suit the presant demands, will echo in both north and south and would be adliear d to if necessary even to the point of ‘'fight.” We claim uought bulour own and Eng land should lime honor enough 10 recognize our lights. Though it is In zt 11 north she must not undertake to steal ii or trouble will eusue, for “Our rights We will maiolaiue.’' ANIITON I.IMAI.X Mr S .1 F»ir amt Miaa Minnie Hlomptiiai drove over from Rock* vlll Thurada) to visit Mn>.
