NOTHING TO ARBiTRATE.
England Long Ago Recognized the Pres

Seattle. Wash, July 26-United States
Serator George c. Perkins, who returned
here to-day from a trip to Alaska, thinks
there is nothing to arbtrate in connec-
tion with the Alaskan boundary. He
said
1T would certainly be just as reason
able for us to insist on taking up the
boundary question between the United
States and Canada again and declare our
dissatisfaction with the 49th degree of
latitude. England long ago recognized
the boundary for which we are contend
ing. She did this wrien the Hudson Bay
company, which at that time was prac-
tic ally Canada, executed l0-year lease
of the territory from Russia for which
she is now contending. She leased it
from Russia and renewed the lease for a
second 10 years. What better proof could
we ask of Great Britains attitude as out
lined in that contract?
Portland canal is ours, and We should
sec that the line is extended along the
summit as long as the range does not lie

MINERS ARE WROUGHT UP
Government officers Accused of
Illegal Practices.
HUNDREDS OF CONTESTS
Miners Meeting Broken Up by Troops.
A Protest Sent to Washing
ton-A Ring Has Been
Formed.

Seattle July 26.-Advices received to-
day on the steamer Elihu Thompson
from St. Michaels indicate that the
miners of Cape Nome and Anvil CITY
are wrought up to high pitch on &c
count of the action of tinted SLales
Commissioner Shepard, backe by the
United States soldiers. A miners meet
ing of nearly 1000 men was dispe: eed
on the night of the 10th by a lieu.er-
ant and a squad of soldiers on the
ground that they were not prope. ty
owners.
The meeting had been callei regu-
larly after four days notice to protest
against the practice that has been fcl-
lowed in locating claims. The miners
declared that clique or ring mas Leon
formed to gobble up all The good Prop
critics in the country. Ii is ohaJ ged
by miners who came in on the Thomp-
son to-day that the machinery of the
federal government on the Yukon has
been turned to these Illegal practices.
They say that some of tie LaplanGe"s
who were sent up there under five
years contract by the government
have since arriving been naturalized
and claims staked in their names.
Even the reindeer which these Lap
landers were hired to take care of
have been used for hauling stakes
into the country to mark the claim
boundaries for the members of TIE
ring.
The miners were signing a protest
which Is to be forwarded, one copy to
Sitka to the federal authorities and
another copy to Washington city. The
protest alleges that the officials at st.
Michaels are conducting the affairs Of
the government to their own selfish
ends.
While the relations between the
miners and officials are at high ten
sion there has been no desire shown
to resort to force and no serious trou-
BILE is anticipated.
The conditions are in such con-
fused shape that nothing is being
done. Hundreds of contests have been
filed, but that is as far as the men can
go. The Ryleys' claims on Anvil creek
and Snow gulch have been filed on
three and four times over. Men are
afraid to prospect because they say ii
one should strike anything he would
not be able to hold the claim.

Helena, July Ex-Governor Smith to-
day received the following cablegram
from Colonel kessler of the 1st Mon
tana:
Recommend for appointment as Sec
ond lieutenant, Sergeant George E.
Lowman, also Sergeant T. P. Howe
vice Second Lieutenant Richards, sool
to be discharged in the United States"
This message is interpreted to mean
that the colonel recommends both for
the position so that the governor can
take his choice. Sergeant Howe is in
A company, and was a captain in the
national guard. He had resigned the
position prior to the breaking out of
the war, and when the call was made
for volunteers he enlisted as a nom
commissioned officer. He was offered a
lieutenancy in the regiment at the time
the LIST Montana was organized, but as
the governor was going to place him
in another than his own company, he
declined. Lowman is sergeant In D

announce the appointment of either
Howe or Lowman tomorrow and will
also name the captain who is to

ELECTION OF SENATORS.
Senator Stewart of Nevada Proposes a
Constitutional Amendment.

Washington, July Ex-senator Stew
art of Nevada said to-day that in or
der to obviate the apparent necessity
of an amendment to the constitution to
insure at all times a full representation
of states in the United States senate,
at the next meeting of congress- he
would offer relief by legislation which
the senator says may prove satisfac-
tory. He proposes that the following
paragraph be added at the end of Sec
ton Is, title >, chapter l of the revised
statutes:
IF on the third Tuesday after the
organization of the legislature no per-
son has received such majority, then
on that day or any succeeding day, the
person receiving the plurality of the

bers elected to both houses being pres
ent and voting, shall be elected"

Robert G. Ingersoll died, was a quiet
place to-day. The body of the dead

GAMBLING LICENSED.
Lewiston Has Decided to Try 1t in Spite
of the State Law.

OF the state Law.
Special Dispatch &c the Standard.
Boise, July 26.-The city council of
Lewiston has decided to license gam
bling, Notwithstanding the state law
prohibiting it. At a recent meeting of
the council a resolution was adopted
the effect of which will be that games
of chance can be operated openly in
Lewiston by the payment of $50 quar-
ter. as provided by the ordinance, for
each game.
Lewiston has a special charter and
the council had decided that a general
enactment does not effect that charter
unless it makes special references to the
charter. AS the Lewiston charter is
not specifically amended by the anti
gambling law. it is held that the city
can license gambling under the provis-
ions of the ordinance in effect before
the state prohibitory law was enacted.
The county it is understood, will
prosecute all who open gambling games
and a test case will be made in the su-
preme court.
AS Boise has a special charter and is
in all respects similarly situated with
Lewiston in regard thereto, develop
ments will be watched with interest
here.
