THE ALASKA ACQUISITION.

It is time that the people of Alas ka stand together and assert their God-given rights the rights of American citizens; the right that every business man has to protect and defend his personal and private business interests. The announce ment made that federal officials are coming to begin an investigation into the business affairs of our mer- chants and others, compelling them to show up and expose their private books, etc, is inperious and alarm ing. It goes to show that citizens of Alaska are going to be deprived of those certain natural rights which are inalienable-the freedom and liberty that every good Ameri- can citizen is entitled to enjoy. It means that the grasping finger of the oppressOr is clutched around our necks and he who dare assert his free-born rights will be throttled.
 Such thing is contra " to the spirit of our constitution and a damnation to our life and li- berty. Were we federal officer. d U. $. marshal or judge on the bench, we mould hand in our resig- nation before we would attempt to enforce so unjust a law. Guide.

Diamonds in Alaska.
A Belief That They May Exist Here. Geological Conditions
 Are Favorable.

The reported finding of a mum Der of small diamonds on tribu- tary of Golofnin bay. forty miles cast of Cape Nome. suggests that Alaska may ultimately become as famous a diamond field as it now is producer of the precious metal. The first mi croscopical continuation of the ruby sands of Cape Nome, in which the auriferous deposits in that district lie, was made by ex-State Mineral ogist Henry c. Hanks, who at the time declared his belief that some small lustrous crystals contained in the sand were diamonds. These crystals were microscopieally mi mute, but they bore all of the characteristics of the precious gem in the rough. If diamonds have been found in the neighborhood of Golofnin hay, and the crystals dis covered by Hanks in the ruby sands of Nome were gems also. then the presumption is strong that d dia- mondiferous deposit exists some where within the watershed of both localities.
 There is nothing improbable in the finding of diamonds in paving quantities in the Territory. Some travellers have noticed strong similarity between the topography and geological formations of the Yukon valley and the diamond hearing veldt of South Africa. The diamondiferolls soil in the latter is found in the chimneys of extinct volcanos. Alaska is volcanic country. Most of its volcanos have been long since dead; those still active are dying. Diamonds and the matrix in which they are found are of volcanic origin. Why should diamonds not exist as well in Alas ka as in South Africa?
 Prospectors in Alaska have so far confined their search chiefly for gold. A few have been interested in coal and copper deposits. Other minerals have been neglected. And yet there may be store of greater wealth in some other min eral than any yet obtained by the prospector for gold, awaiting the miner who is intelligent enough to understand the signs leading to natures secrets and profit by the knowledge. The diamonds dis covered at Golofnin bay and in the ruby sands of Cape Nome may be of no direct commercial value, but may stimulate the miner to search the country for their source, where a deposit may exist to amply en- rich him for his labor and enter prise.

Observation-Disclosures
!. Having Decided Americans
and British Liable, KingOs-
car NllllHAssess Damages.

! WASHINGTON, October 22.-An init
nation has been received here that King
Oscar of Sweden, who is acting as the
/! arb1tra tor of the issues between the I'M
/ ted, States, Germany and Great BrltAlh,
| growing out of the Samoan rebellion Oh
1899, will decide that the facts presented
| to him in the briefs of counsel, Whlcn
have been pending for nearly year,
warrant him in proceeding to assess the
damages sustained by foreign residents
] Samoa as result of the landing of a
combined force of American and British
sailors, and marines, and the destruction
| of property incident to the ensuing fight
with the rebels
BY the terms of the treaty under which
| the three powers agreed to submit these
claims to arbitration the arbitrator was
| first to declare whether or not the Ameri-
! cans and British were at all liable for
| damages and if so then he was to deter
mine the amount of that liability. He
has, it is understood, concluded to de-
eide the first question in the affirma tive.
The next step is to fix the amount OF
the damages and this must be done by
King Oscar upon the basis OF the facts
| now to be presented by the representa-
tives of the governments concerned
The German claims are far larger than
the others. amounting to s103.9lS, while
the American claims are $u,bUo, ana the
British only $685..
It is not the amount of money involved
in this approaching decision by the arbi-
traitor that concerns the government OF
the United States but rather the enun-
citation of a principle which, If accepted
as a precedent, would be most unpala-
table, and would SO seriously restrict the
assertion of American rights in foreign
countries in case of revolution or rlotlns
jeopardizing the lives and property OF our
citizens that it would amount to the total
withdrawal of protection. This can never
be admitted, and so it may be positively
stated, that while the United States gov
eminent will accept lie arbitration 10y
ally and pay damages assessed against IL,
it will utterly refuse to be bound by such
a principle or to recognize it as establish
ing a precedent
otherwise the United States Govern
ment could be held liable for enough
damages in cases where it lands troops
upon the Isthmus of Panama resulting in
a. collision with rioters or rebels. even
though the government is solemnly bound
by treaty to preserve free tra..lc across
the isthmus.
The United States could not land ma
rnes in any of the West indian or Cen
trail and South American ports IN any
emergency without risking liability tor
heavy damages. These CONSCIENTIOUS
will lead to the declination to recognize
the decision as a precedent and lnclden-
tally to the submission of The next slmlla'
case to the Hague Tribunal In the nope
of another and different decision.

any announcement that this country was
not indisposed to learn wisdom regarding

The speaker promptly ruled the question
out of order, to the evident chagrin of the
Nationalist. whose excitement increased
as Mr.. O'Brien continued to press. his
point. He urged that this letter of Presi-
dent Roosevelt was an International fact
of the first Importance to the future of
Great Britain and it would not oea friend
