Daily and he retorted that he was fol

and Canals.
Senator 81. w. johnson has amended

.ALDeRMANIc FORESIGHT.

Alderman Hurting, it will be noticed
by reference to the report of the special
meeting of the Board of Aldermen re-
ported elsewhere in the CHRONICLE, is
keeping watchful eye on the trolleys.
The resolutions introduced by him are
pertinent TO the times and they should be
promptly adopted. The controlling ele-
ment in the next Board of Freeholders,
it is understood, strongly favors trolley
for Morris county. Hence the wisdom
of Mr.. Hurtzig's outspoken action on Fri
day night last.

most serious that has occurred in this

with serious fire even when handicap

The necessity of building inspector
for Morristown was never more apparent
than now. AS dangerous an explosive
as gasoline should not be permitted to
be used in the business portion of the
city, under floors occupied by families.
and its use should hereafter be prohibited
except when properly restricted. We
think this should hasten the APP
pointment of a building inspector, as
provided by resolution introduced
at the last meeting of the Board of AL
dermen. A rigid inspection should be
made without delay where there is any
likelihood of further trouble from the
use of gasoline or naptha.

the British Ambassador and our State
i Department had concluded convention
as to the boundary line between Alaska
and the British possessions, south of Mt.
St. Elias, admitting and ratifying the
American contention has been authorita-
lively denied. Negotiations are still
pending. In fact there has never been a
time since the ratification and exchange
of the detinltive treaty of peace between
the United State and Great Britain IN
! 1888 that negotiations have not been
pending over disputed boundary lines.
Even the northeastern boundary line has
never been finally and defnitively settled
and there is still dispute over Hunters
Island on the line between Minnesota
and Canada. Great Britains sudden
access of friendly feeling for the United
States evidently is not so acute as TO in
duce her to forego any possible oppor-
tunity to add to her landed estate.
~
In spite of these boundary differences,
however, Great Britain is genuinely
anxious to be on amlcable, even intimate,
relations with us. Her motives are not
lofty, being based ION seltishness, that
Intelligent seltishness' that Is said to be
at the root of all craftsmanship. What
ever her motives, het friendship at this
time is not to be desptsed. We may not
become her ally and she may not dis
patch her fleets here tp aid us in war, yet
each can be useful TOP the other without
going to those lengths. If it comes to
war with Spain, British interests on the
sea would suffer only less than American
commerce from Spanish cruisers and
warships The direc9 trade between the
United States and the United Kingdom
du1lng the last fiscal year reached the
enormous total Of $3.50, 100000, or more
