THE BOUNDARY QUESTION.

And now it turns out. as many sup
posed it would. that no one at Washing
ton has any knowledge of boundary mon
uments with charts at their base, said
to have been created by Russia to mark
the limit of our Alaskan territory. No
one in Washington official quarters now
believes the story. Blu there is no need
of boundary monuments and buried
charts to establish the Alaskan boundary
question.
The contention of the United States is
clearly written in set terms in the treaty
of 1925, and cannot be mistaken or ig-
nored. Aside from the treaty, this coun-
try can safely rest it's case on British
maps of the territory in question. There
never was a dispute over the matter until
a comparatively recent date. The bound
airy had not been traced in detail, but as
far as the general lines went British
maps were in accord with Russian and
American maps, and all agreed in rum
ming the boundary at a distance of ten
leagues from The coast, and in so tracing
it as to follow the windings of the coast,
as the treaty of 1925 directed that it
should.
1t was not until this region became i'm
portant to Canada and that her desire to
gain access to the Pacific grew urgent,
that she put forward any claims in vio-
lation of the treaty. If Alaska of today
had undergone no change from the Alas
ka of even ten years ago, we would heal
of no Canadian claims. Canada has made
a great mistake in dealing with this
boundary matter. Instead of asking a
concession from the United States, stat
ing her awkward position, and her needs
in order to relieve herself from the tight
place she found herself in, Canada puts
in an untenable claim, a demand as a
right to what she knows is a wrong. OF
course, the United States cannot agree tc
surrender territory to which she has 6
perfectly clear title, but she could give
Canada what she wants without feeling
the loss. But she was not properly ap'
preached. Canada demanded that t.
which she had no right, and refused t.
consider I'M question whatever at issue
between the two governments, unless sht
could have her own way. Even England
is getting tired of Canada's obstinacy
And there the matter rests.

Queens in exile are not prone to take a
~roseate view of things, especially of the
conditions in a country which they were
forced to leave for their own comfort, and
that of a few others. Probably ex-Queen
Liliuokalani may be in the class. In a
recent interview she is reported as say
ing that the Hawaiian islands are in q
state Of practical anarchy. The govern
ment, she says, is an olgarchy instead Of
a republic. There is no such thing as real
justice, and caprice dictates the admins
tration Of affairs. 1t is very difficult to
believe the queen has diagnosed the situ-
alton just right. 1t would rather seem
she is a little d%ispeptic and has given
vent to more bile than blessings. From

Admiral Dewey is taking to the grand
receptions planned in his honor as a duck
takes to a desert. Philadelphia, in the ex-
uberance of the goodness of good Quaker
hearts, wishes to express their apprecia-
ton of the noble services in behalf Of
their country. The admiral courteously,
but firmly, declined it. To the committee
at Washington. where he will and must
go to receive the sword voted to him by
congress-, he writes he is pleased to learn
the exercises are to be made as simple
as possible. Evidently Dewey breads the
big show and parade which are the rule,
and not the exception, at the national
capital. Feeling as he does, it is ques-
tionable whether he would go to Wash
ington for the sword, or send after it by
a trusty, if he learned that the presi-
dents injunction to the committee to
Burn plenty of red fire" would be strict
ly obeyed. There are many like Dewey.
They dislike being on exhibition before a
gaping crowd.

And now comes Manitoba crying for
help, not help to repel an invading foe,
not help to save them from pestilence or
famine, but help to harvest a wheat crop
so large that the great problem with the
farmers is, how and where to get men
enough to save it from ruin. So serious
is the situation that Premier Greenway
has officially recognized it, in a public
letter in which he says: "When the wealth
of our province, represented by our wheat
fields, upon WHICH the prosperity of our
cities, towns and villages, as we'll as all
our business concerns, banks and rail-
ways, and the implement agencies. so
much depend, IS in danger of being left
upon our fields for the want Of sufficient
help to gather the same, thisd department
deems it wise to do all that is possible in
the way of securing help for the farmers
to assist them in garnering their crop"
This seems bad enough, but it may
have been much worse on the farmers if
they had not raised enough for their sup
port. Ihefe are 5000 farmerS in Mani
toba, and if only 0 1000 of them needed an
extra man, which is a small estimate, a
large importation would be necessary.
Where are they to get them? There are
idle men enough in the United States to
spare a man for every sheaf of wheat the
great crop can make. Blu how are the
r.a, e., -a& Lo-,O UI,n,1p IT. n-l
The press is advertising the need, and
railroad companies will give cheap eXcur-
sion rates to harvest hands good for three
months. But farm laborers are not rush
ing there for a three months employment,
and the want still remains %unsupplied. 1t
seems the cry ought to appeal to the thou
sands m our large cities who want fresh
Cir, fresh food and good wages, but there

THE MARKETS.

During the past week the prices of
produce in the local markets have been
FAIRLY good, the strong feature being oats,
which, on account of the shortage in the
Montana crop, caused by the extraor-
dlnarily short growing season, was very
nigh. The price closed today at 1880
$l.4O, which is remarkable when the fact
is considered that during the past few
years Montana grown oats sold as low
as 20 cents, and in some instances even
lower.
Farmers who succeeded in growing
good crops of potatoes this season are
also fortunate. The Butte quotation this
morning is 90c@$1.0o per cwt.. and the
demand is fairly strong. The price for
this product is a splendid one. Potatoes
OF the best quality have sold in Butte as
low as 80 cents. and even then at a small
profit to the producer. Quotations today

UNfAIR CRITICISMS.

History repeats itself. NO war mas
been conducted. during ancient or mod
ern times, which did not arouse an OPP
from grumblers, skulkers and
pessimists generally, and which found
expression in their u~ngencrous, unfair
and bitter criticisms of the generals in
command or the ruler who directed their
movements. The present war, from It's
incipiency to the present time. is not an
exception to those recorded by the his
torians of the past. In this instance,
however, neither the principal officers IN
the field. nor the authorities at the head
of the nation have escaped tine vltrlolic
bambardment of unfair, unpatriotic and
partisan critics.

written and timely article, which ap-
peared in Harper's Weekly on the 18th
instant, and which is reproduced else
where in this issue of the Inter Mountain,

comment seems unnecessary.
Attention may, however, be called to
the conclusions reached by the writer of
The Critics of OTIS First, that the
president desired M asked for an in
crease of the regular army to 100, 600 men,
That the lack of men handicapped Otis
in his efforts to put down the Filipino in
surgents. That Otis did all that could
be reasonably expected of him, IN view
of the number of men that could be
spared him. That congress-, alone, is re
sponsible for the paucity of troops a
Otis command, and that if congress hat
complied with the presidents wishes {
full complement of fighting men would
long since ave been in the Philippines
But the fact should not be overlooked
by the cities that the American arms a

and that Otis and his generals hav,
kept the insurgents on the run all tn

committee to New York and is full to
OverfiOwing with enthusiasm over the
proposed new road. According TO ap-
pOintment, the committee We're ush-
cred into President Spencer's Office
and received a most cordial reception.
The plans and ideas heretofore given
the readers of THE RECORD were pre-
sented TO Mr.. Spencer, together with
4 complete statement as to the reSOur-
Ses of the counties through which
the road would pass, the tons of freight
received and shipped by each promi-
lcnt town. ETC., etc. Mr.. Spencer ask
ri many questions as to facts and fg-
Ires, but the committee were prepar-
ell TO give satisfactory answers to all.
To sum up the whole cOnfab, the pres
idcnt asked that copies of ali surveys
heretofore made be sent him at once,
that he may lay them, together with
the statistics before the board of di-
rect0rS. The fact that the president
ii so great q corporation would spend
,ayeral hours of his most valuable time
n talking over the matter, and the
,urther fact that he would ask the
people 10 go TO So great expense as to
awe hundreds of pages of surveys
copied, goes so show there is much
foundation for hope of the road being
constructed. Mr.. Spencer said that
when the board of directors met, they
would more than likely send a corps
If surveyors TO go over the line and
make careful examination of same.
The papers requested are being pre-
pared and VIII soon he in the hands of
the officials at New York.
Our people should bear the impOr-
tant fact iii mind that to get the road
The county will have to give the right
Jf way. Some may think it will be
built any way, and they might as well
make what they can out of it, but,
dear reader, there are several other
routes which can be easily taken, leav-
ing Garrard out, and the counties will
quickly jump at the opportunity to
secure the road. Don't let anyone stuff
you with the idea that the road is

mean, misery and despised for some
