Ever since the discovery of gold in
Alaska and the Importance of the
Lynn canal there has been cropping up
regularly some find of old maps at
Quebec or in London each going a little
further than its. predecessor in getting
over onto the formerly recognized as
American territory In fact it is said
that prior to 1895 even the school books
in Canada showed the line exactly
where the United States now alleges it
is. But that was prior to gold dis
coveries and the values were not there.
Now in hysterical editorials Canada's
press is declaiming against the COM
mission. which Will sift the matter. ia
one breath and in the next saying that
a distinct advantage is gained for the
evidence will be piled up where all may
see it.
II ali Canada wants is an exposition
of evidence. then this commission will
assuredly accommodate her. 1t perhaps
viii be a curious exhibit if thoroughly
collected. and frankly displayed, with
out excelsior or edltlng In the partisan
interests of the Dominion. Indeed, it
is strongly suspected that one of the
most convincing arguments of the va
lidity Of the claims of the United States
would be a complete publication of the
whole case. especially those Canadian
documents and maps which, in the
days before the gold fields of the Upper
Yukon had been discovered and had
given the Lynn canal and other inlets
to the shortcuts to the fields a high
value, cheerfully outlined the boundary
according to the present definition by
geographers. 1t seems rather a waste
of time, but if this is the only way to
let the Dominion down easy it is per-
haps a good way after all.

The cutting away of frees in Thomas
Square will improve that park if the
authorities stop where they are. The
growths removed were in the way Of
others which will now have a chance
to spread and show their beauties. In
cidentally the Square will not be so
good hiding place at night. Thetea
is, however, that the wood-cutting
process is only the beginning of the
scheme, promulgated by the Superin-
tendent of Public Works some time ago,
to entirely denude the tract and use
it as playground for children. Bar
ring the fact that children have no de-
sire to play on a hot, shadeless block,
the objections of the public to having
the arboreal beauty of Thomas Square
effaced should be enough to preserve
the pretty park in its present shape
The ax-men have not gone too far, but
they should go no further.

The action of the House in taking up
again the Senate bill which provides for
the repeal of the stamp tax on trans
fers of stock certificates. indicates that
there will be given careful considera-
ton to this bill. which in itself prom
ises to be of benefit to the business
community, without cutting OF any
material revenue 1t is fact that the
tax, small though it may be, has much
to do in preventing the shares of Ha-

The Paradise of the Pacific for March
Is an exceptionally interesting number,
both pictorially and in it's text. The
Paradise originally held a government
subsidy and was intended to advertise
the scenery and resources of the ISL
an6s. Its subsidy has long since disap-
peared but it is ten times more attrac-
tive and valuable now than it was in
the days of its official recognition and
should be sustained by the public on
the same grounds that, at the start,
entitled it to the aid OF the Government.
II the commercial organizations were to
take a certain number of Paradises ev-
cry month and distribute them through
Raymond & whitcomb and other
agencies the Territory would be the
gamer by it.

ADMINISTRATIVE REFORMS.

Much Of the trouble in which the Ter
rftory is involved is due to the unwil-
lingness Of Congress to accept the find
,n1s OF the commission which framed
the Organic Act; and especially TO the
uolfcy which gave the Governor so lit
tie real power over the subordinates
who would make or mar his admins
tratton and the legislative statutes
which have so limited the bonding safe
guards as to leave certain officials. who
had access to the public funds. without
other restraint than that which might
be imposed by their own conseiences or
the fear OF the law
Two reforms are necessary to sue
cessfuI administration in this Territory
one is an amendment to the Organic
Act giving the Governor the power to
summarily remove any head Of de-
partment; the other is an amendment
recurring every official who receives or
disburses public funds TO give the bond
OF some security company recognized
as such by the United States govern
ment.
Inability to remove departmental
chief and the fact that the Treasurer OF
the Territory was not under bonds, are
circumstances which account for much
of the recent scandal in the Treasury
and Board of Public Works. 1t may
be fairly taken for granted that if the
Governor had been able, at any time. |

their bilIets, the conduct Of both would |

The restraining influence of a bond

Sympathy for Mrs. Maybrick would
be less general in america If more were
remembered about her case. 1t was
proved at the trial that she led a dou-
Bile life and an discriminating letter to
her lover was produced which more
than suggested the benefits both would
gain from the death of her husband.
When the latter died OF poison it was
shown that Mrs. Maybrick had ready
access to the drug which took him off
and there were strong evidences. cir
cumstantial in their nature. that she
administered the Iethal draught. Sue
cessive Home Secretaries reviewed her
case and declined to recommend her
pardon.

Some Hawaiian members of the Leg

era OF the monarchy ito understand
that resolution of want Of confidence
amounts to nothing. Formerly it was

OF an indictment by the grand jury

longing TO the Rosso palace, at Genoa,

paintings included two Van Dycls, a
Carlo Maratta, a Pris Bordone, a Va

The cleaning was intrusted TO a pro-
