with the exception of the Portland

let she so much needed.
What America Gains.
By a majority OF one, Lord Alver-
stone, chief justice of England, cast
ing the deciding vote, the commission
confirms the United States in it's title
to all the land and every waterway and
inlet it claimed, except the Portland
canal, which Canada gets as it's only
outlet to the sea.
This triumph for America means, in
brief, that Great Britain admits the
right of the United States to about TO-
700 square miles of territory, instead of
4 small fraction thereof, and continued
control of the many important bays
and inlets throughout the 600 miles of
oseacoast. 1t means besides American
supremacy in the northern Pacific and
American possession of much valuable
mineral land that Canada has claimed
Tor years.
Portland canal is at the southern
most end of this strip of territory, and
the American boundary line is merely
shifted from the southern to the north
ern side of the canal. A Canadian fac
tory and small settlement of Cana
dams are at it's head. and the Ameri-
can commissioners, seeing that Lord
Alverstone was disposed to grant the
Justice of their contentious on every
other point, agreed to allow Canada to
have it.
Canada in q Rage.
Toronto, Oct. 19-Canada was
stirred into a tumult by official an
nouncement that the Alaskan bound
Ary tribunal had rendered a decision
giving a sweeping victory to the
United States. The denial to Canada
of even single port for the Klondike
gold fields aroused the wrath of the
entire dominion, and annexation to the
United States was urged by many as
= relief from Great Britain's repeated
POPULATIONS of Canada's interests.
Dispatches from various points
throughout the dominion indicated that
the Alaskan defeat had inspired gen.
oral rage against the mother country,
and this was emphatically expressed
by leaders of all parties.

The City Election.

A light vote was cast at the cleo
ton Tuesday with the absence of
any particular excitement. Even
the question of license failed to stir
up it's o1d-time sensation in stimu-
1ating a general rush to the polls.
No officers were to be elected except
aldermen, supervisors and minor
officers in the wards, except that of
Justice of the peace at large and on
these there was no contest except
for alderman in the first ward.
There was but one ticket in the
fie1d-that nominated at the Repub-
1ican caucus. The whole vote was
about 300 as against registration
of 500. The greatest surprise was
the vote on the question of license.
1t had been repeatedly remarked
that the vote on this question would
be close with a strong probability
of small majority for no license.
The result when the ballots were
counted was, for license, 1873; against
license, 100, a majority of "A for
license. This is a larger majority
for license than had ever before
been cast in this city.
The ticket elected is given below:
Justice of the peace at large, A.
T. Carroll.
Aldermen: first ward, F. V. Will
Jams; second ward, C. F. Winter;
third ward, Geo. Theo. Smith; fourth
ward, C. G. Knowles.

All, how can we ever forget
The pangs that have gone to our hearts deep

In losing our baby, our pet
But while we must mourn let it be for our

That we are not ready to go
With her to the land where is no cold or pain
And where sorrow none ever may know.
For know the Good Shepard hath taken our

And holdeth 1t safe in His arms,
To lure us to follow to pastures more fair
BY the light of it's infantile charms. *a*

Cleveland, Sept. 1s.-There is talk
among Cleveland legislative candidates
who are nearly certain Of election in
favor of presenting bill at the next
session outlawing auto racing. Such a
bill is in process of preparation and
will undoubtedly be introduced. The
idea is to put automobile racing on the
same level with prize fighting. Several
auto enthusiasts have learned that
such bill is being prepared. Manager
Shanks of the Winton co. said
Il am not much surprised. have no
doubt that the bill will be passed, for ]
confess there have been a number of
horrible accidents this year. / have al
ways said 1t was dangerous to race on
tracks that are not specially built for
the sport.
"The introduction of the bill will be
death blow to auto racing in this
country until the races are conducted
in different manner. There is little
doubt that II the bill is passed in Ohio
similar ones will be presented In every
state legislature in the country, and
from the opinions / hear expressed
they will all be passed.
''But as long as there are machines
there will be races. The specially con-
structed tracks will be built sooner OF
later and the objections to auto racing
overcome"
