TUPPER ATTACKS AMERICA.
Dcnunciation of Our Course in Re-
gard to the Alaska BOUNDARY.

Toronto. Ont. Feb. 24-At a conserva-
tive meeting here Sir Charles Tupper. the
party leader. denounced as shameful the
terms offered by the United States in set
tlement of the Alaskan boundary dispute
And this" Indignantly exclaimed Sir
Charles, after winning in a struggle
which but for Britain's aid might have
had no such glorious end. more mon
strous insult was never flung into the face
of commissioners. The American demand
is prePosterous. They say in effect that
the Treaty will be overridden. and they
will hold the line of communication. so
that they may plunder the British Yukon
for the next twenty or thirty years"
Sir Charles contended that Canada
should enact laws in reference to alien
labor, mining, etc, exactly similar to
those enacted by the United States

That the members of the Board of En-
quiry now investigating the army beef
will take account of the influences that
may be expected to affect the testimony of
witnesses the public has every reason TO
believe. They need nc advice and are capa-
BILE of directing their investigation in a
way 10 bring truth to light. But there are
people who follow the published testi-
mony with ayidity, yet who do not always
consider the interests of some of the wit
nesses. That our opinions are largely
formed by the prejudice due TO training
and seIf-interest is well known to expert
enced jurists. Therefore we may expect
that persons employed in the Commissary
Department of the Army and who are to
blame if there is anything wrong with ra-
tions that have been issued to troops, will
not be as ready to admit that poor or bad
beef reached the soldiers as other and dis
interested witnesses. 1t is easy to explain
why all, or nearly all, the officers employed
in commissary work consider that all the
beef that passed through the hands of COM
missary agents was good, although scores
of regimental and company officers found it
bad and the soldiers refused to eat it.
