I
A dispatch from Ottawa says
that miners are Hockiag into the
v,,irnn minine district in great
numbers, and the demarcation of
the boundry line between Alasta
and the British possessions be
..rr..e mrm necessarv every day,
1 ;.ivi;r.finn of the United
states is uiiestioned, many claim
inS that the mi"ing territory is on
v.ritish soil. The Canadian gov
ernment for a year or tivo past has
hn nrodn? the American gov
ornmnt to ioin with it in settling
i;ennod rmestiou. The cost of
;a estimated at from
$1,500,000 to $4,000,CD0.
This miestion is a much more
serious one than if the territory
alone the boundary were all agri
cultural or grazins land. As to
such lands the laws of Great Britain
,,nA th( United States are not
dissimilar, except as to the method
.,f nrorurin!' title; but in the mar.
p .;nac nnrl miners' rights
IT.. I JL iiiiiv,t
and privileges there is great un
The United States mm-
to the fullest extent, exacting only j V of so;
a marking 01 tuc lines ui uiw w
thegiound, and the performance
of a certain amount of work on the
claim each year. The Englhh
law, unless altered in late years,
vests the title to all mining ground
in the Grown, and requires the
purchase or the ground or the pro
curement of a mining license
before the surface of the ground
can bo disturbed.
It is easy to see what confusion
md trouble may arise among
sinrs where tli la ws are so un
like and whsrc the boundary line
is uncertain and incapable of ascer
tainment. Miners, as a rule, are
not enamored of forms of law,
except such rules and regulations
.as they make for themselves, and
a mining license collector seeking
to1rw tribute where there was
any doubt as to the jurisdiction J
would be very likely to have a
hard, time.
l-rvlVlv nrtHiinir Call W done
about this' matter without the
action of congress, but that body
should certainly give it its earliest
attention. If a .-pedal session is
...illrtd in October the boundary
that when two or three criminals
are executed at once it is a note
worthy event, whereas in Tekint
in April no less than eighty high
way robbers were taken to the
, f cvopiit.inn iust out-
gnasuy 3 u
side one of the city gaies anu iuC..
heads lopped off. Miss Bird in
"The Golden Chersonese" has
given a" realistic picture of the
horrors of a Chinese execution
ground, soaked with the blood of
scores of criminals, but the death
penalty seems to have little effect
on the Chinese, who hold human
life in small consideration.
"The cold truth about civil-service
reform," says the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat, "is that the
democrats favor it under the pres
ent administration 111 about tne
same degree that the republicans
favored it when Cleveland was
president." To which, the Kansas
City Times, a democratic organ,
responds : "There is considerable
truth in this plain assertion. Civil
service reform suggests alluring
possibilities to the outs.' ". Our
esteemed contemporaries have
diagnosed the case with a near
approach to accuracy, as might
have been expected ot sucn ame
practitioners.
Iris now announced that the
board of trustees of the slate re-j
form school has about decided
upon the purchase of land on which
to locate the reform school soon to
be established in Oregon. The
land selected is the Warner tract,
nearly five miles south of Salem.
This tract contains between three
and four hundred acres. The pur
chase price is given at 53 per
acre.
Salem has organized a company
for the purpose of improving the
public park of the capital city.
