NEW POINT IN ALASKA
BOUNDARY DISPUTE
Possession Not Called Into Dues
ton by England Until 1886.

A new and interesting point en-
phasized by the Hon. John W. Foster in
the brief of the Alaskan boundary dis
pute, submitted to the British govern
ment Friday through the embassy
here. relates TO the peaceful possession
OF the land in dispute from the time of
the purchase of Alaska from Russia I'M
I'll 1886.
It is said to be shown in the brief,
by quotations from various state papers,
that Great Britain did not dispute the
possession of the United States I'M
til 1886. The archives of the War, State,
and Navy Departments and the Depart
ment OF Interior are said to have yield
ed much matter which was included in
the brief in proof of this point.
The purposes OF the treaty between
Great Britain and Russia in 1925 are
carefully reviewed and it is shown that
the coast OF the mainland, and not the
coast OF islands. was to be taken as the
basis for establishing the boundary.
The English brief in the case was filed
Friday in London with the Amen-
can ambassador, and will be forwarded
here without delay. July is the date
fixed for the filing of the documents
OF both governments in answer to the
briefs just presented. On September
the commission will meet in London
TO arbitrate the dispute concerning the
boundary.

point to them as examples of what can
be accomplished by individuals in de-

Starvation atrophies the mind, and

Those hundred million of people need

for the naughty Brahmins will never aid

The Service Here and Abroad.
The scratch of the Presidents pen
makes diplomatist in the United
States.
Important posts are entrusted TO men
whose only qualification for the posi-
lions are that they won wards of certain
cities over TO the party in power or de-
livered stump speeches which saved
some Congressman from defeat. Diplom-
aey is not looked on by Americans as a
profession 1t is g diversion in which
only those can engage who have politi-
cal influence.
Americans are prepared with great
care for the army and the navy, but the
Government offers few opportunities to
men who desire to prepare for the con-
sular service. And the fierce political
fight for the desirable places in foreign
counties makes the chances for the re-
ward of good services so uncertain that
capable men hesitate TO enter it.
Yet N spite of the uncertainty of the
service the United States has many
really capable representatives in foreign
, lands. who are wisely directed by the
Secretary of State. who has the ideal
training for his position.
Training in Europe
The United States has much to learn
from Europe concerning its diplomatic
service. The study of the career of an
ambassador like Count Cassini, the Rus
sian privy counselor and master of the
imperial court, shows the care with
which Europeans are prepared for the
foreign service and makes the weakness
of the American system more evident.
