FRICTION IS NOT Likely TRIAL STILL DRAGS ON
ALASKAN BOUNDARY AGREEMENT
WILL SATISFY MINERS OF
BOTH COUNTRIES
ALL RIGHTS ARE PRESERVED
Under Provisional Arrangement
Those Stalking Claims on Either
Side of the Line Arc Fully
Protected.

WASHINGTON, July 31-None of the
protests reported to have been made in
Alaska against the definition of the pro-
visional boundary line has reached Wash
ington, yet the impression prevails in the
state department that the agitation of
that subject is based upon lack of
knowledge of the exact nature of the
agreement, effected between the United
States and Great Britain by which a
most difficult and dangerous subject was
removed from the current negotiations
between the two countries.
1t is pointed out by the state depart
ment officials that this provisional bound
airy line, the running of which is said
to have excited heNAmerican miners in
the Porcupfne region, is not in any sense
binding upon either party to the modus
vfvendi, except as a purely temporary
scheme, designed to prevent hostile con-
fiicts between the miners and the police
forces. through lack of knowledge as to
their rights. The purpose of the ar
rangement as to that is fully disclosed
by the inclusion in the modus vivendi
of provision in these terms:
TT is understood as formally set forth
in communications of the department Of
state of the United States that the citi-
zens or subjects of either power found
by this arrangement in the temporary
jurisdiction of the other shall suffer no
diminution Of the rights or privileges
which they now enjoy"
Every American miner whose claim lies
on the wrong side of the boundary line
now being drawn is, according to the Of
fetal view here, holding bis claim by
quite as sound a tenure as he enjoyed
before the provisional treaty was made.
He has neither lost or gained in strength
of title by this arrangement, so he GER
tainly has no cause for complaint, as he
would have were the boundary line now
being drawn a permanent one. The Off
Gals here, however, are fully prepared
to defend the temporary boundary, point
ing out that SO far from having coded
to Great Britain an inch of territory,
Great Britain temporarily yielded to the
United States fully nineteen-twentieths of
the territory in dispute and suffered her
shipping to be kept ten miles from the
boundary line at the nearest point, not
withstanding the Canadian ambition to
get a port on the Lynn canal.
