BOUNDARY Land Titles Just as Sooure as Before. LINE ONLY TEMPORTARY ONE Stain Itrpitrlmflitt In Iiifltlimit View the New Arrniigioiirnt at a Victory i for tfc United Slate. Washington, August!). None of tho protests said to hare been made in Alaska against tho definition of the provisional boundary lino have reached Washington yet, and tho impression prevails iu the state department that agitation on that subjeot is based on a lack of kuovyledgo of tho exact nnturs. of the agreement efTooted between th United States nud Great llrltnlu, by which a most dangeroitB subject wni removed from tho ouricnt negotiation! between the two countries. It is pointed out by state department offi cials that this provisional boundary line, tho running of which is said to havo excited thu American miners in tho Porouplno region, is not in any Boui-o binding upon either party to tho uiodus vlvendi, oxcopt us n purely tem porary scheme ucBlgnod to prevent hos tilo conflicts between tho minor.8 nnd police forces, through lack of knowl edge as to thoir rights. Tho purposo of the arrniigomuut as to that is fully ills olosod by tho inclusion in tho uiodus vlvendi of a provision in those terms: "It is understood, as formally set out in communications to thu state de partment of tho United Ktatcs, that the citizens or subjects of either power subject to this airangomeutln tho turn porary juiisdiotloii of tho other shall suffer no diminution of tho rights und privileges which thoy now enjoy." Every American minor whosu claim lies on thu wrong sldu of tho boundary lino now lining drawn is, according to the oillelal view here, holding his claim by quite as sound a tenure us he en joyed before tho provisional treaty was inado,. He has neither lost nor. gained In strength of tltlo by this uirnucn tnout, so he certainly Has tin cause foi complaint, as ho would havo were the boundary lino now being drawn a per manent onv The officials hero, how aver, are 'fully propared todefrni.'tho temporary boundary, and point out that, so fur" from having cedod to Great Dritain au increase of territory, Great llrltnlu rtunporurily yiolded to the Utiited States niuetoon-twentiuths of the teritory in dispute, and snffcrod her shipping to be kept 10 mllef, torn tho boundary lino at thu nearest jsilnt, notwithstanding tho Canadian 'ambi tion to get a iiort uu Lynn canal.
