The Alaskan Difficulty.

The meeting in London of the Joint
commission to consider the Alaskan
boundary dispute again calls public at
tention to an interesting and important
question.
After the organization of British Co
lumbia in 1871 the Canadian govern
ment requested that the boundary line
between Alaska and Canada should be
adjusted, but 1t was not until 1898 that
the British government acted in the
matter Thus for more than seventy
years, through the Russian occupancy
OF Russian America and the American
occupancy Of Alaska, the British EN-
pire made no formal protest against
Alaskan boundaries as marked on
maps, official and otherwise.
In view of such history, the Cana
dian claim, countenanced in 1898 by
the British government, seems curious
that the Alaskan eastern boundary
should run from Prince of Wales is
land at 81 degrees 40 minutes along the
mountains nearest the shore and across
all the indentations of the sea I'm to
Mount ST. Elias. The grant of such n
claim would controvene the phrase

1920. The correspondence leading ur

The handspring of Life.

Political economists have told US that
self interest Is the handspring of indus
try. 1t is not true, writes DR.. Lyman
Abbott In the current issue of the At
lantic Monthly. Love is the main
spring of industry. 1t is love for the
home and the wife and the children
that keeps all the busy wheels of in
dustry revolving. that calls the factory
hands early to the mill, that nerves
the arm of the blacksmith working at
his forge, that inspires the farmer at
his pillow and the merchant ut his desk,
that gives courage to the soldier and
patience to the teacher. Erskine was
asked how he dared, as an unknown
barrister, face a hostile court and in
sist on his right to be heard 81 felt
my children" he replied, "tugging ut
my robe and saying, Here is your
chance, father, to get us bread" 1t
is this vision of the children dependent
on us that inspires us all in the battle
of life.
Whether we cultivate farm, or oper.
ate factory, or manage a store, or
build and conduct railroad, or paint
pictures, or write books, or preach ser
mons, or enact and enforce laws-what
ever We do, the end Of our activity is
the nurture and training of children in
this primary school, which we call life
in preparation for some life, we know
not what, hereafter.

BRlTONs OPPOSE CANAL.
suex Interests In London Fighting
Panama Treaty.

Sue. Interests In London Fighting
Panama Treaty.
One Of the strongest influences at
work to defeat the ratification of the
Panama canal treaty by Colombia is
that Of the English interests, which
are looking to the defense of the Suez
canal. says the Washington correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Ledger. The
English bondholder does not welcome
the prospect that the. Suez canal,
which now enjoys revenue that Is
constantly increasing as the volume of
traffic through that waterway in
creases, should be forced to lose divi-
dends by competition. The tonnage Of
the Suez canal is now, in round num-
bers, 100000 annually, and 1t has
been computed that serious diversion
Of this traffic would occur If the Pana-
ma canal should be built. BY some the
amount that would thus be taken from
Suez is placed at two-ffths.
1t is unmistakable that there has
been an activity of late In Colombia of
agencies which are undoubtedly Eng
lish and 1t may be attributed to sympa-
thy with the Suez canal interests.
The apprehension that faction in
the Colombian conglsss is playing for
time and trying to work forfeiture
Of the present franchise, which lapses
Oct. 81, 1904, is not fef by Dr. Herran
He says that there is no good reason
for suspecting any such purpose. There
has been no sentiment supporting such
a plan, and. in fact. public opinion is
averse to a course which would look
like taking snap judgment in the face
Of two such powerful nations as
France and the United States.

The Two Minute Trotter,

The two minute trotter Is with US, and
the seers and prophets of the harness
turf can now say Il told you So" What
they have foretold for years came to
pass recently when C. X. G. Billings
mare Lou Dillon dethroned the mighty
Cresceus, trotting a mile at Readville,
Mass, in the remarkable time of two
minutes fiat. The American driver has
had his eye on the two minute horse
for half century, but she has come
just as the trotter Is passing. The sad
die horse will survive all the changes
of society. Men will always ride, but
it grows clear that electric and steam
traction in all its forms is destined to
dethrone the draft horse. From draw
horse to trotter, he is destined to disap-
pear.
However, the trotter has lasted long
enough to give the feminine half of ma
ture Its most notable physical triumph.
The Derby has been won but once by a
mare. On the running track the mare
Is at distinct disadvantage, particu.
larry in spring races. In autumn events
the mare more often figures. The pac.
Ing record has been but once broken by
mare. The trotting record has been
broken twenty-three times, and of these
ten record breakers were mares. Elk.
Guiding duplication, thirteen horses and
seven mares have broken the record
Nowhere else in athletics, in racing OF
In feats of sheer endurance has n rec
ord as large been made by the feminine
haii or Its members enjoyed so numer
Gus a share of triumphs. The present
record is by mare, and it brings the
time OF trotting mile to a point little
likely to be much reduced.

A Gauge of National Wealth.

There is much of interest TO this
country In the lately published report
of the British board of trade dealing
with the iron and steel industry and in
the German reports on the same sub
ject. Both statements dwell upon the
remarkable growth of the industry i'll
the United States, especially during the
last few years, and the extent to which
steel has replaced iron. Seven years
ago the pig iron production of this
country was not much in excess OF that
Of England. Since then 1t has been
doubled, and although Germany has
increased its output by over 90 per
cent the American record now equals
the combined output of both countries.
The steel report shows even more
notable improvement. For every 100
tons of pig iron consumed for all pur-
poses eighty tons of steel are made
here as against seventy-tive in Ger
many and siXty-three in the United
Kingdom Germany's production of
steel is only half of ours, England's
but one-third. The United States Is
today making over 100000 tons more
steel than all the world did nine years
ago and is turning out almost half of
the total manufactured today.
There could be no more striking dem.
onstration of the industrial develop
ment of this country than is furnished
in these foreign figures, which strongly
present the overshadowing supremacy
of the United States in iron and steeI
products, which form one of the great
est sources of national wealth.

many, France and Ra.sia-fhe he-
I.tious of Great britain and the
Uai,ed states.
Lord Brassey. an eminent naval au-
thority and president OF the LONDON
chamber of commerce, has lately been
in Boston looking over the business
and shipping interests, says a Boston
dispatch. In an interview be Analysed
the present conditions OF industry and
commerce In England, the relations OF
England 10 her commercial competitors
and her relations TO the colonies ana
commented on the relations OF the
United States and Great Britain, espe-
cially In China.
He also touched on the growing am
ity between this country and England,
and in speaking OF naval power ne
made the statement that the United
States, with her tremendous resources,
ia undoubtedly destined TO be the nrst
naval power In the world He predict
ed that, owing to present conditions, at
least partial disarmament would take
place on the continent-in France. Ger
many and Russia.
Regarding the naval supremacy OF
the United States Lord Brassey said:
at is only a question OF time when
the fleets Of the United States will be
raised TO the first rank. Potentially the
United States Is already lncomparably
the greatest naval power In the world.
She has the greatest resources, and 1t
is only a question of policy with her.
If 1t came to question Of competition
you have greater resources than we
have.
Germany has been pushing her
navy with the result that her naval
ambition with other causes has brought
an exceedingly strained condition OF
German finances. Russia has been liv'
ing on loans from France. but she can
not borrow any more, and anarchy Ii
rife In that country. France has
reached her limit. Retrenchment is the
cry there. All this will tend toward
disarmament.
"These expensive ornaments are the
greatest curse Of Europe, and we IL
Great Britain have about reached thu
limit ourselves. The breaking point ha'
been reached In France Germany ant
Russia. These countries are stagger
ing along with an awful load"
Regarding world politics Lord Bras
: sey said: I'VE have great hope that Ii
the near future Great Britain and tn
United States will find 1t for thei
joint interests to act more in harmony
= We are coming nearer oil the time.
, "Our relatioss with China and tn
t home government Of China must b
7 for many years to come a subject o
| deepest moment to the world. Ger
e tainly II the United States and Grea
Britain act together 1t will be for tn
e mutual advantage Of both and cor
ducive to civilization. The Russia
0 cars movements, you will find, will b
8 a great deal slower when he finds tn
+ United States and Great Britain t.
r gether."
