Sir Charles Upper. ex-premier Of Can
ada. who.is visiting Boston, in an interview
yesterday as to the prospects for a salts
factory settlement of the Alaskan boun-
Diary and other disputed questions between
Canada and the United States, said:
Great Britain and Canada have asked
the United States government to consent to
a settlement of the differences according to
the Russian treaty of 1925, and we have
asked your government to refer the whole
matter to International arbitration to de-

asks nothing. l suppose 1t will be settled
on the same general lines as the Maine

way to solve the question"

indications Arc That He Will Again
he Urged to Accept Vice Presi-
dcncy.
Washington, April 2s.-There is a.
strong belief among prominent repub-
slicans in this city that the next ma
stional republican ticket will be McKin-.
ley and Roosevelt. This belief is based
on the known fact that Senator Plat is
trying to induce Governor Roosevelt
to change his decision not to permit
the use OF his name for the vice pres,
idency and to the suspicion that fail
ing to secure the governors consent
Mr.. Plat will nevertheless try to force
the nomination of Roosevelt at Phila-i
delphia.
Senator Lodge. who is perhaps the
closest friend Governor Roosevelt has
in Washington, went to New York yes
terday to confer with the governor.
WINGED Governor Roosevelt would be
nominated for vice president and that
an acceptance would follow.
This is the opinion of many Of Mr..
Roosevelt's friends here. and they are
the stronger OF this opinion because.
of their knowledge of the fact, which
some time ago wired to the Times
Herald, that President Mckinley would
be very glad TO set Roosevelt for his
running mate. 1t was true then, and
1t is still true.
But neither President Mckinley nor
anyone entitled to speak for him in
tends to be a party to the scheme to
force the nomination of the governor
of New York against his will. Pres
ident Mckinley is not giving much
personal attention to the matter ofsse-
lecting a candidate for vice president
but Senator Plat has taken the trouble
to ascertain that the nomination OF
Roosevelt, if brought about at Phila-
delphia and accepted by that gentle
man, would be thoroughly satisfactory
to the president and his friends. Sem
ator Hanna included.

Poor Mans Paradise.

Inc cheapness of living in Australia
Is proverbial; it is a veritable poor
mans paradise. In the butchers shops
you see two-penny and four-penny tick
cts on the meat. and provisions of local
production are equally inexpensive
In the eating-houses or coffee shops-a
great feature of town life there-you
can get a square meal, consisting of a
steak or chop, bread and butter and
tea, for sixpence. There are no tips for
the walters in the Antipodes. The Col
onials are enormous tea drinkers, and
on an average partake OF the cheering
herb seven times a day. Boarding
prominent feature
are rendered almost essential in a land
where the domestic servants command
a wage of pound a week, with every
evening out and leave to practice on
the piano and keep a bicycle.-New-
