HOW 1T CAME ABOUT.
Ratification of the Danish Treaty in
the Senate.

Washington Feb 1S-In a little more
than an hours tine the senate disposed
of the treaty with Denmark ceding
to the United States for a consideration
of $5.O00,e00 the islands of ST. Thomas,
St John and St. Croix, composing the
group of the Antilles known as the
Danish West Indies and lying just east
of Porto Rico, and thus. SO far as this
country is concerned. consunmated
transaction which has been under con-
sideration fntermittently since the adj
ministration of President Lincoln
The treaty and the report on it were
read at length. and more or less discus
sion of the proposition was induIged in.
Senator CulloTn. as chairman of the
committee foreign reIa tions. made a
speech expressing the advantages of the
acquisition of the islands, and Senators
Bacon and McLaurin (Miss.) made brief
remarks, saying that while they could
not endorse all the provisions of the
agreement they would place OBJ
stacIes in the way of ratification
Senator Bacon moved to amend the
treaty by striking out the second para
graph of article 3 of the treaty, reading
as follows:
THE civil rights and the political
status of the inhabitants of the Islands
shall be detern ined by the congress,
subject to the stipulations contained in
the present convention
He based his opposition to this pro-
vision on the general ground that the
constitution should extend to the ISL
ands when they became a part of the
United States. He said however. that
the failure to accept the amendment
would not prevent his voting for the
treaty for he believed in the Monroe
doctrine.
The amendment was rejected with
out division
Senator Cullom explained all the pro-
visions of the treaty. and gave a de-
tailed account of the islands resources,
and of their trade value to the United
States He said the provision affecting
the civil rights of the inhabitants was
similar to the provision on the same
subject in the Spanish treaty concern
ing Porto Rico.
Senator Cullom said that in taking
the islands the United States would as
sumo no burden of debt as by the
terms of the agreement all claims held
by Denmark against the insuIar treas
lIry would be Cancelled He placed the
total of these claims at $2.oO0,OsQ- He
also explained the nature of the obliga-
tions the United States would assume
with reference to the St Thomas float
ing dock company and the West India
and Panama con pany. saying that on
the telegraph franchise it would be nee
essary to pay a subsidy of $4,000 per
wear for three or four years, and that
in both cases there was an agreement

Of Portland e. Sunday. July q. crossed
two good-sized lakes in the Granite
mountains, some miles northeast or
Cornucopia, on half-frozen ice.
Mr.. Sage, with party OF friends,
went on a hunting and pleasure trip to
the almost inaccessible mountain peaks
back of the town Of Cornucopia, In the
panhandle district. The mountains are
high and rugged and before passing the
timber line the explorer must find his
way through a primeval forest. A pack
horse is the only means Of getting into
this district except to trudge along on
foot, which, to say the least, Is uphill
business. One part Of the road Is SO
incumbered with fallen trees that 1t Is
almost impossible to get through. In
order to get supplies to their claims two
prospectors were obliged to cut a trail
through this tangle' of fallen trees, and
1t was by means Of this trail that MI.
Savage and his friends were enabled
TO ascend the mountains until they
finally discovered the two frozen lakes
referred to. The lakes are near the
summit on the north side Of the noun
tain and in order to reach them the
party travelled over ice and snow for
distance of five miles.
The bodies Of water are small. One
is about $50 feet across and the other is
between 600 and TOO feet in diameter.
They are well-defned lakes or pools,
however, covered with thick coating
Of ice, clear as crystal and as smooth
as glass, which is so thick and strong
that the exploring party did not hest
tate to ride across on horseback.
Mr. Sage says so far as he Is able to
Judge the ice on the lakes never melts,
because they are so situated behind
two tall peaks that the suns rays new
err strike them with sufficient power to
make any impression on the snow and
ice. This land Of perpetual snow and
ice is within days ride Of Baker City
by the present means Of transportation,
part way on a blackboard and the rest
on horseback 1t would scarcely be
more than a ride of an hour and half
on an electric railroad. Mr.. Sage Is of
the opinion that from the lay Of the
country other larger and more pictIr-
esque lakes with perpetual ice will be
discovered.
