ALASKAN BOUNDARY
QUESTION To BE
SETTLED
Treaty to This End Is Signed
Matter Referred to Mixed
Commission of Jurists
Equally Divided Numer-
ically Between United
States and Canada.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 24.-Sec-
retary Hay and Sir Michael Herbert.
the British ambassador, today signed a
treaty providing for the settlement of
the Alaskan boundary question. Eff
1orts In this direction hsN,e been put
Iorth for long time, the pressure
coming from both sides, the Canadian
miners being anxious to get through
the Klondike to the sen without pass
ing through American territory and
the Americans insisting upon their
right to the coast line and the control
of the ports.
The treaty provides for the refer
ence of all these boundaries questions
to mixed tribunal of jurists, three on
each side, to determine the interpreta-
ton to be placed on the treaty Of 1926
between GIhat Britain and Russia,
which defined the boundaries between
Great Britain and Alaska. This prop
osition is virtually the same as that
brought forward by the American
members of the high joint commission,
which met in Washington three years
ago, but which then was rejected by
the British and Canadian representa-
tiVes.
A Work of Three Years.
1t has takff three years to obtain
the consent of the British and Cana
dian governments to adjust the boun-
dary dispute on this basis. 1t is un-
derstood that the treaty has been
drawn up after thorough consultation
with the leading members of the SEN
ate of both political parties, the ad-
ministration desiring to do everything
possible in advance to secure it's rati-
hcatlon. The commission proposed is
curious in composition, consisting Of an.
equal number Of members upon each
side without an umpire or odd man to
cast the deciding vote.
No other terms of arbitration would
have been acceptable to the people of
the Northwest, who see in this ar
rangement a practicable extinction of
any chance Of decision hostile to their
plans. On the other hand to get
verdict favorable to the American
claim our case must be so strongly pre-.
sented as to win the support Of at least
one of the Canadian contingent.
The treaty will be submitted to the
senate very soon and the effort will be
made to ratify it this session.

Retirement.

For the past few days the subject of
the appointment of a successor to An

more generally discussed than at any
time since the vacancy occurred Those
most prominently mentioned in connec-
ton with the matter recently are John
Writ Randall, of Annapolis, Md, and
Frank l. Campbell, Attorney General of

former has been brought forward for the

of the Hon. Frank l. Campbell, whose
friends are urging his nomination for

II have known the Hon. Frank L.
Campbell for a number of years, and he
is in every respect identified with our
city and it's people. He is a man of the
highest character, and is peculiarly fit
