Mckinley HauIs Down the Flag.

1t might as well be admitted tha
England can have anything she want.
| from the Mckinley Administration
| Through the medium of our speckleG
and striped and furbelowed Secretary
of State we have surrendered to Eng.
land very important strip of Ameri.
can territory in Alaska, that was
bought and paid for with American
money as far back as 1867. So little
has been said about this disgraceful
transaction that comparatively few o;
the people know what has been done.
Like the treaty understanding" be-
tween the Administration and Eng
land, it has been kept still" The
announcement, like all the recent acts
of the Administration, comes in the
form of an apology to the public for
wrong doing, as follows:
The state department is confident it
has conserved American interests in
the matter, without unjustly treating
Canada. The divisional line, bounded
on the west by the Dalton trail, is
placed 224 miles above Pyramid har-
Dor. which is regarded under the
treaty as a tidewater mark. so the
Canadians are not allowed to reach
any point on Lynn canal. Moreover,
there is no permission for free trans
Ter across American territory of Cana
dian goods, except miners belongings.
These matters may figure later, when
1t comes to permanent boundary
line, but they are not touched upon in
this modus.
In reaching a correct understanding
of the foregoing it is necessary to re-
member that we bought from Russia, |
for S7,200,000 ten marine leagues of /!
land from tide-water mark at Pyramid |
Harbor. A marine league is 81 Eng |
lish miles. We own, therefore, 35 |
miles inland from Pyramid Harbor, |

English. without compensation, strip

said that if new survey showed that

the expenses of such a survey, say
ing that he was satisfied with the pres

him and called him out. saying that
he wanted to settle the thing then and
there. Chapman went out and in the
mix-up that ensued got much the worst
