1NCITED by newspaper publica-
tions recently tending to throw doubt
upon the ownership of the Klondyke
gold fields, some high government
ofi1cials have been looking into the
matter with Wow to preparing
themselves for any controversy that
may arise. They say there can be
no valid objection advanced to the
title of Great Britain to this terri
tory. Careful examination of all re.
liable charts and maps made far
enough back in date to be free from
suspicion of influence of the recent
heavy gold finds, has convinced these
officials that so far as the Klondyke
helds are concerned, there can be no
question but that they lie east of the
l4lst meridian, which defines the
boundary line and so are within the
British territory by about thirty five
miles at least.
