Th voyage of tb Canadian govern
ment cruiser Arctic to tb far north
uggeets for consideration the qucs-
tion of tbe ownership of oui far
northern lands. For many years ex
ploreri of various nationalities, Brit
ish, American. Scandinavian aud
others, hart ventured Into the froten
wilderness lying between tbe dominion
of Canada and tht north pole, and have
there discovered lands hitherto un
known, and bar named them and
Iflanted flags upon them. There has
been much international rivalry in the
work of elaboratiuf tbe arctic map and
of pushing on toward the pole. But
there has been little thought In the
minds of tbe adventurers or in that
of the public of the delimitation of in
ternatlcnal boundaries In the realm of
paleocryatlc ice and eternal snow. But
now the Canadian government bring?
that thought to mind in the Intimation
that tbe dominion extends clear to the
north pole, and that all the lands which
have been discovered and explored in
those regions, no matter by whom, are
under tbe British flag.
Academically, the question Is some
what complicated, and might form tbe
subject of interminable argument.
There are those who hold that discov
ery and exploration give title to new
lands, while others Insist that title is
not perfected without actual occupation
and permanent settlement But. how
