AS we have noted, the recent Cana
dian boundary decision did not settle
the whole question of the dividing line
between Alaska and the territory of
Canada. The boundary for a distance
of 140 miles is still in doubt. You can
bet your last penny" said high Cana
dian official speaking of the matter,
that when this line is properly sur
veyed Canada will not permit any ar
bitration of it. Canada has had enough
of arbitration" If Canada is not
pleased with the way Great Britain
has been treating her, why does she
not do the Panama act? The United
States would doubtless be glad to rec
ognize her independence, and hereafter
treat with her directly.

President he would take place in the
! latters cabinet-the place now occu-
pied by Secretary Cortelyou, and that
the latter would, in all probability, go
back to the position he held before his
promotion, namely, private secretary
to the President. AS a matter OF fact
it was stated several days ago that Mr..
Mitchell would not be a candidate for
the position he now holds, ill-health
being given as a reason. That an
nouncement has, it seems, been magni-
fed into an offer-a condition offer-of
the President to make him a member
of the cabinet.
1t is probable that Mr. Roosevelt, al
though it is known that he is impulsive
and is apt to do queer things, never
considered Mr.. Mitchell in connection
with cabinet appointment, for the
reason, mainly, that he hasn't got to a
point vet where he would feel justified
in offering cabinet positions in the adj
ministration that will begin on March
4, 1905.
No doubt some of Mr.. Roosevelt's
friends have started the report that
the President has Mr. Mitchell in mind
for cabinet appointment for the pur-
pose of creating the impression that
the former is on the best of terms with
the labor element. 1t will be recalled
that since the President decided the
Miller case against the labor unions
the belief has been quite generally en-
tertained that the unions did not re-
gard him with as much favor as they
did Immediately after the settlement
of the anthracite coal strike. Indeed,
the President has admitted himself in
some of his utterances recently, that
some of the labor leaders seemed to
he out of sympathy with him.
The report about the appointment of
Mr.. Mitchell to a cabinet position was
doubtless set afioat for the purpose of
putting the President in closer touch
with the labor element. AS for Mr.
Cortelyou, it isn't at all probable that
he has minated that he would be
willing to go back to his old place. 1t
would be rather curious condition of
affairs if he We're to announce his
readiness to do so. 1t would amount to
an admission that he wasn't equal to
the task of discharging the duties of
the office of Secretary of Commerce,
and that his abilities did not rise above
the routine work OF opening the Presi-
dents correspondence and writing let
ters at his dictation.

Certain English men and women of
letters and the drama are discussing
the abandonment of evening dress for
the theater and making that function
less formal To the literature of the
discussion John Strange Winter (Mrs.
Arthur Stannard), makes an interest
ing contribution. 1t has specific refer
ence to the wearing of hats in thea
tiers. Says the authoress: Nowadays
SO women out of every 100 wear wigs.
and q woman who wears a wig is a
slave to that article of adornment."
Mr.. Willard. the actor, says that one
way to get women to take off their
hats in the theater is to have posted
prominently notices to this effect Ell
derry ladies who fear to take cold are
requested not to remove their hats"

The phosphate rock industry in Ten
nessee has had remarkable growth. The
first commercial shipment of this rock
was made in 1894, and in the eight
years up to the end of 1902 about $780,
900 tons had been marketed, which had
a value of nearly $4,000, 900. Phosphate
rock has thus become next to coal the
most important mineral product of
Tennessee.

MITCHELL AND CoRTEIyoU

About the most improbable of all the
political rumors that have found their
way into the public prints recently is
the one that Mr.. Mitchell president Of
the United Mine Workers Union, would
not be candidate for reelection to
that position for the reason that if Mr..
Roosevelt were nominated and elected

The Four States Immigration League,
leans yesterday, is made up of repre-

the league is to discuss and adopt the
most effective means possible for at
tracing desirable immigration into the

Greater Georgia movement.

Mr.. Brown of New Orleans, the cot
ton bull whom Secretary Wilson criti-
cised so severely not long ago, has his
revenge on the Secretary already. 1t
will be recalled that the Secretary said
some very hard things about the
bulls" who had run the price of cot
ton up to so high a figure. Mr.. Brown
says he never in his life uttered so
rotary the other day, when he said that
the boil weevil was bound to cross the
Mississippi river and that the govern
ment could not prevent it.

view a day or two ago he was quoted
as saying that he would permit moth
ing to be considered during the extra
session except the reciprocity measure
and appropriation hills.
The representatives of the American
Protective Tariff League talk as if
they thought they would be beaten,
and that they would have to be con-
tent with uttering a protest against
the proposed legislation. If they
haven't confidence in their ability to
make a successful fight they ought to
withdraw their opposition at once. If
they believe they will be beaten what
is to be gained by making a fight?
The Capitol at Washington is dry
these days, and so are some of the
congressman. Already the solons are
beginning to growl about the incon-
venience of having to send or go sew
eral blocks to the nearest saloon for a

loon nearest the Capitol on Pennsylva-
mia avenue has put out sign reading,

Troubles Galore.

The fates could never have decreed
that the life of Knight Palmerlee should
be dull, even in places. AS deputy
sheriff his every day duties and the cir
cumstances attending them, perforce
render his existence quite the opposite.
But there are times in mans life
when seclusion and quiet would be pre-
ferable to the hurry and strain Of daily
labors and associations. Mr.. Palmerlee
no doubt had this in mind when he be-
took himself with his family to Fish
Lake, in Bottineau County, for a fort
nights sojourn in the tented stiffness on
the wooded shore, where dallying with
the bobbing cork is the favorite form of
incidence.
On their way from Rolla to the lake,
they passed by a farm house where a
great row was going on. 1t afterwards
developed that the farmer was whipping
step-son, and the beating he gave him
was SO brutal that the lad almost died
from the effects.
1t became noised about, and when the
child -beater entered Dunseith he was
set upon by an angry mob. armed with
the necessary hanging tackle, and would
have been lynched but for the timely in
tervention of the authorities He was
promptly lodged in Jail, and witnesses
to the beating were gone in search of.
About the time that Mr.. Palmerlee was
getting things in shape for real comfort,
where he could lie down and lazily con
template the world from the viewpoint
of luxurious ease, who should appear
upon the placid scene but the sheriff Of
Bottineau County who startled him by
these words: Come with me, my dear
We need you in our official business.
And Knight Palmerlee had to go much
as he disliked to leave the scene of con
tentlnent. And they kept him at Dun
seth for four days!

$4,000 For, r. r. Valley University.

The above is the purpose Of the
campaign now on, and the consumma- %
ton is not beyond early possibility.
Mr.. Frank Lynch, of Casselton, offers
SIC. 900 Oh condition that $40, 600 more IS
be subscribed by other parties ia cash "a 81

est, payable annually, and the prinlcl-
pal assured by "a written pledge, to pc 'f
paid sometime. The donor may take
his own time to pay the principal. On
this plan one subscribing 81, 600 would
pay $50 annually, or $25 on q $5oO tt1I
pledge.
S15. 900 has been secured above MI.
Lynch's $50, 900, leaving just half ftl1s' tn
amount, or $4,000 yet to raise. Ms q.
Lynch has given reason to hope tina ],
if the full amount is pledged early, l''t
will convert his offer into ladies'
dormitory, to be erected at once. Id Ids i
is the great need of the present and 4
necessary prerequisite to the possible
rapid growth that past success makes
possible. t--
It is especially important that this
canvass be carried to successful COM.
pletion within the next thirty days.
Every subscription is conditional upon
the whole $4,000 being pledged, and
should be calculated in this ratios inn
portance. 4
The addition of this large sum to the
permanent assets of the university,
means that much more will follow.
Success brings success. The fact that
this large investment is to- have mis-.
sion, not for one year, but for all time,
warrants the trustees in exhorting all
