The Clerk.

4 A meeting of clerks was held In the hall OF
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
on last Sunday evening, the purpose Of the
meeting being to discuss matters Of interest
to the statesmen and salesladieS OF the city,
The hall was comfortably filled by s O'Clock,
large majority of those present being en-
ployed in the retail stores In the city; the re
mafnder were members of the labor organ
izations and consequently deep symDathizers
with the objects OF the meeting.
Joseph r. Buchanan, editor of The En-
QUIRER was selected as chairman Of, the
meeting, and upon assuming his duties
briefly stated the object of the meeting.
Interesting speeches upon the subject OF
Organization were delivered by j. Harrison
Mills, Thomas Painter, William 81 eHynds,
M. w. Burke and a. w. Goats. The speak
ers were listened to with deep interest and
were frequently applanded.
The chairman announced that there was
already an assembly of the Knights OF Labor
in this city consisting of statesmen, and eX-
tended an invitation to those clerks present
who were not already members, to join the
organization. A committee was appointed
to pass through the audience and take the
names. Between twenty and thirty names
were secured, and considerable encourage
ment was extended to the movement. L :,
The meeting was entirely satisfactory in
its results, and the indications point to a
strong organization of Denver's clerks ina
very short time.

knights OF La bor Picnic.

Last year there were only five assemblies
of the Knights of Labor in this city, but they
united and gave the grandest picnic ever held
by any society in this city. Now we have
fourteen assemblies, and if we will all CO
operate in giving an excursion and picnic dur.
ing the coming summer, there is no reason
why it should not far excel our success M cess OF
last year. ','t' p" @'."' ~
1 have been spoken to by a number of
members of the order upon this subject, and
as it is desirous of holding the picnic little
earlier this year than last, and as some time

tive ones and will make call for joint
sembly in the city, to meet in THE ENRUIREF
Office ON Sunday, April %, at 80 D. m. .'..

an address on organization, urging all to

whereby we can tighten each others

Striking Car Builders.

ST. Louis, April 1S-A large number OF
the employees of the Missouri Car and Found

appointed a committee to Wal: on the superin-
tendent of the works and lay their grievances
before him. Their wages have been cut from
five to twenty per cent, and they most OF
them have quit work. They say they will
not resume work until their wages are re-
stored, but the prospect is that the company
will not accede to their demands, and for
NAL strike will be the result.

north along Portland Channel to the junction
of the 56th parallel of north latitude with the
continent and thence along the summit OF
mountains parallel to the coast tn the 14lst
meridian, and thence on that meridian to - the
Frozen ocean," But where the crest of the
mountains slirting the coast from the seth
parallel to the Hist meridian Is more than ten
marine leagues from the coast, there the
boundary is a line not more than ten marine
leagues from the coast, and parallel to its wind
ings. In the absence OF any definite surveys OF
this vast region, it is impossible to determine
precisely where the main chain of mountains
runs or at what points, if at any, it is more
than ten marine leagues from the coast, and It
is estimated that Il sufficient survey and de-
narration of the boundary would cost several
millions of dollars The census report of 1850
on the geography Of Alaska says
We have absolutely no data for locating the
submits Of tno chain OF mountains running
parallel with the coast; 1t Is not even Ger
tain that there Is such IA connected chain, and
consequently It been thought best for the purposes
OF this map to run the boundary in conformity with the
last paragraph in the clause OF the treaty mentioned at
distance OF ten marine leagues from the scaslOrc Of
the main line, IA expectation OF future settlement Of
this altogether indefinite line, by treaty
ton between the United states or the British Govern
ment A survey with view of locating the boundary
accordance with the obtnse wording OF the treaty would

meat of the boundary at some points, and par
tcularly in the neighjorhOol of the gold de
posts recently discOy ercl is likely To be IA mat
ter of great difficulty. The seekers for gold
have in many cases pushed far beyond the
boundary of the United States into British
territory about the head waters of the Yukon,
but the coast itself is 50 irregular that it must
be a matter of the utmost difficulty to deter
mine at many points where British authority
ends and the authority of the United States be-
gins. In the end. undoubtedly, tho wishes of
the new settlers will have mach to do with the
determination rs to their allegiance. aud rs
most of them are from this country. it seems
not unlikely that an amicibc arrangement
could be reached without the costly and in the
end unsatisfactory determination of the
boundary of geographical surveys.

TIE Alaska BOUNDARY.

The Government of the Dominion of Canada
is now strongly urged by some British citizens
to take measures at once TO determine the true
boundary between the United States territory
OF Alaska and the territory of the Dominion of
Canada. 1t Is represented that in the location
of mining camps and claims great difficulty has
already arisen, because the settlers and claim
ants are unable 70 determine whether they have
located on United States or British territory.
1t is feared that serious controversies may arise
in the future, unless the true boundary can be
at once fixed, and already the enforcement of
customs laws along the boundary, particularly
where mining claims are located, has become
very difficult.
In acquiring the territory of Alaska by pur-
chase from Russia, the United States acquired
whatever property Russia had but unfortu-
nately its eastern boundary was in some re-
spects peculiarly ill-defned. The treaty of
1867, following the terms of the treaty be-
tween Great Britain and Russia, defined the
boundary "a q line haQinniu0 ut the snutharn.
