THE sAYWARD CASE.
Taft, Miller and Choate Present
Arguments.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-There was
no cessation of interest in the continual
ton OF the argument in the Behring sea
case to-day before the supreme court of
the United States. When the court
was called to order at noon
every seat both inside and out
side the bar was occupied by in
tereSted persons, most of whom
remained there all day. Secretary Bay
ard sat within the bar and followed the
arguments as closely as he did yester-
day. Solicitor General Taft claimed
that jurisdiction over the waters accom-
panying the grant of Alaska to this
country by Russia and all waters of
Alaska over which the Emperor of Rus
STA had jurisdiction were conveyed
by the grant as the waters of
Alaska, and included Behring
sea. The question at issue
being a political one, the executives
decision was conclusive unless congress
took action, and if any claim were to be
made concerning the territorial sOver-
eighty, the president was invested with
the power to make it and his decision
would be the correct one.
"HOw could the president decide"

out the seizure act. 1t would be
an edifying spectacle, if an armed
conflict had arisen out of the
controversy, for the president to be
powerleSs to decide what action should
be taken only after the case had been
decided by court of admiralty or by
the federal supreme court" The presi-
dent exercised the tight 10 decide pOlitI-
cal questions. and from his decision
there was no appeal. 1t was true the
president could exercise almost SOW
ereign power, but there was no danger
of his exceeding the bounds of right in
doing so, and Mr.. Taft quoted an opin-
ion of Chief Justice fancy in support of
this,

hrmation of the executive position on
the question; and, in conclusion, he
stated that the people of this country
were confronted with the position of
me United States, which, after spend
ing large amount to protect the seal
ing industry, must look on without
power to lift a hand 10 protect it. He
closed by quoting from Justice Story an
opinion that the supreme court could
not entertain political questions.

lie said the decision of the Alaska
court could not be attacked unless a
statement of want of Jurisdiction APP
peared on its face, and he
quoted Chief Justice Marshall
IN support of this contention.
Inc question of boundaries, he said,
was not a question for the courts, be-
cause the courts did not make boun-
darles. Courts could not question the
ACTS OF either political branch of the

British government. Mr.. Choate's
argument was devoted TO the exact
questions at issue in the case The
three-mile limit law, he said. had never
been disputed until now. He outlined
the points of International law and
cOntended that according to it the Say
ward when seized, fifty-nine miles from
land, was f1ftv-SlX miles outside of all
possible jurisdiction of the United
States. 1t was the duty and power of
the supreme court to search the pro-

BLAINE AND THE MONROE DOC
TRINE.

A short time ago a brief dispatch an
nounced that Secretary Blaine had served
notice on Lord Salisbury that the United
States would ''view with more than jeal-
ousy" any attempt at permanent exclu-
sive control of the river 0rinoco by the
British government. Though the dispatch
was brief, and attracted far less attention
than the baccarat scandal, it involved q
great principle aud may lead to important
international consequences. In word, it
amounted to a formal resssertion of the
Monroe doctrine, as emphatic as the lam
guage of diplomacy will permit.
The 0rinoco might be not inaptly
termed, as to that portion of il which re-
spends to the tidal flow, ''the Mediterran-
can of the western hemisphere" Conn

This great inland sea lies almost wholly
within the territory of Venezuela. At its
mouth, for short distance, il sweeps
against the shores of British Guiana.
This colony, with the Atlantic, forms the
eastern boundary of Venezuela. For
some reason the exact boandry between
Venezuela and British Guiana has re-
NAMED unsettled. Repeated surveys have
been made under the auspices of both
countries, but so much has depended not
only upon treaty interpretations but on
historical facts as well, that the commits
sions of both nations have failed to
definitely fix the boundary.
Along the unsettled line lie some valu-
able mineral deposits, Including the ex-
eeedingly rich Yuruari gold fields. In
the absence of . definite settlement the
British government has, as is usual in

weaker nation, "claimed everything in

OAKvILLE, June 20.-[Special IA new
phase of journalism was witnessed yester-
day by your correspondent, who happened
to be staying over here. Oakville is a
small town of some $50 or 200 people. but
surrounded by thickly settled commu-
nifty that justly warrants the idea that
there will be small town of some i'm
portance at this point. 1t lies half way
between Centralia and Montesano. on the
Gray's Harbor railroad, and has taken
rapid strides in development since the
line has been completed.
Yesterday the town was all excitement
consequent upon the publication of the
first issue of new paper, the Oakyille
Globe, just being started there. The event
was considered of such importance that
gala day was made of it. A picnic was ar
ranged for, and a big dinner in a grove
close to town. The rain, however pre-
vented this but the band turned ont and
serenaded the newspaper force while the
first issue was being run off, and ouite a
spirited contest was made for the nosses-
sion of the first copy run off. which was
finally hid off for SIS, and the fortunate
possessor will keep it as memento of the
occasion. There were lots of wouId- he
