SUGGESTS LAND EXCHANGE.

A new solution for Canada's boundary prob lem as it affects northern British Columbia is proposed by Arthur P. Woollacott, r. R. G. S., in an article in the New Western Canada 1ri- bune, Vancouver, B. C. He evidently studied the final negotiations which determined the Brit ish Columba-Alaska boundary without finding any justification for the action of the tribunal and defends the Canadian claims which, Canada ayers were entirely ignored by the British members of the commission which fixed the present boundaries.
 Of course Canada feels aggrieved the settlement On the other hand Americans, fam iliar with the situation, equally convinced that the adjustment of boundary difficulties was nothing that was not in accord with the justice of the matter And to argue either side at this late day is futile, a academic discussion which can do nothing except reopen old wounds, revive animosties that almost if not entirely forgotten. These things water passed over the wheel past recalling.
 Mir Woollacott contends that it is the United States and not Canada that will eventually, and that not in the not far distant future, will want a boundary readjustment. "Those who have an intimate knowledge of the matter and the situation generally not eager to reopen the boundary question: realizing that later the United States will want doorway into Alaska by the, way of Lynn Canal,''sshe writes. When that day comes, and it issnot far distant, Canada is in position to offer in exchange for the panhandle east of the line that passes through Chatham Strait and Lynn Canal that part of British Columbia west of Lynn Canal. and a triangle of the southwest corner of the Yukon bounded by straight line from Pyramid Harbor, Haines Mission along the Dalton trail to Donjek at the junction of the White River and the Donjek, thence following the 140th meridian to the Arctic"
 This suggestion has the virtue of being unique For small strip of mountainous country, which may may not be valuable for minerals it is proposed that the United States surrender that portion of Alaska which contains the largest and most highly developed communities in the Terri tory the only portion that today stands forth as seIf-supporting and in which the greatest promise of immediate development is contained. It would call for the transfer of all the most valuable timber lands, the finest water power resources in Alaska Were it followed out the only re maining in the Panhandle under the American flag would be Baranof and Chichagof Islands. It may be that the United States would consent to trading proposition But not the basis proposed by Mr Wooacott.
 We like it no better than the general pro position made by the British Columbia Parlia- ment. We appreciate both because they are gratifying to Territorial vanity in that they show that others appreciate the opportunities offered here for greatness But appreciation stops short there As bona fde trading deal, it leaves cold.

THE RICHARDSON ARTICLE.

In another column of The Empire today there appears letter from Gen Wilds P Richardson relative to his article on Alaska that appeared in the January number of the Atlantic maga- zine. It is highly probable that the explanation Alaskans. Certainly when the article is fully read and sanely considered in the light of the history of Alaskan developments, there is very little ground for unfriendly critical comment And there has been little of it. Adverse criticism connected with the article has been based on misquotatons comments in which only DOT tion of what Gen. Richardson wrote was used As he points out ill his letter there was ns way that he could prevent such use of it.
 Alaskans do not have to be told that he onl, had in mind advancement of their cause Nc other Army officer has ever gained their con fdence and friendship as he did during a seryic, in the Territory that covered some 20 years. II seeking to point out to the public at large som. of the causes of lack of progress here, of retro gression in some instances, in urging for Alaskan the right, indubitably theirs, of handling the
 own affairs of purely local character and the
 ability to do so Gen. Richardson has agail proved his friendship for the North and tha he merits it's own high regard for him. Article like his can do the North no harm in the lon, run. They will provoke serious thought an, discussion, adding to the knowledge about th Territory which is had in general through out the country in scaniy store. Of course ther will always be misinterpretatons and juggling O what is written to suit the viewpoints of cer tain percentage of all commentators. These il turn will be answered as was the case witl

BALKS AT REWARD
RoySe May Turn Down Offer
Made by Stark.

John A. Royse, campaign manager
for Judson Stark, Republican, Marion
county prosecutor elect, does not in
tend to accept appointment as
criminal court deputy, which Stark
has announced he would give Royse,
it was learned today.
Royses friends had expected him
to be named chief deputy.
1t also was learned that Stark
does not intend to reappoint Will
liam B. Miller, a municipal court
deputy. who was Stark's assistant
campaign manager.
In place of Royse, Stark an
nounced he would name Paul
Phoadarmer, chief deputy. Rhoadar-
is criminal court deputy.
Stark also ignored another present
deputy who had befriended him. He
named VinsOn H. Manifold as grand
Jury deputy to succeed William H.
Sheaffer.
Because of the record he made in
the political corruption inquiry, in
which he Shouldered most CT the
prosecutors Office activities, Sheaffer
was urged by many citizens inter
ested in honest law enforcement to
become a candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for prosecutor in
the primary last spring.
Sheaffer out Of friendship to Stark
refused to enter the race. His an
nouncement pleased politicians.

WHEAT DROPS
AFTER EARLY
BULLISH DRIVE
Profit Taking Cuts Gains on
Corn Also; Oats
Market Strong.

CHICAGO, Nov. ga bullish
drive sent wheat higher on the
Board of Trade today, but profit
taking developed and prices dropped
late in the session. Fine harvest
ing and shipping weather prompted
liquidation of December corn. Oats
was strong. Both wheat and corn
finished at the low point of the day.
At the close wheat was &c to &c
lower, corn was down &c to 1Ac
and oats was unchanged to &c up.
Provisions we're sharply lower.
A report that exports of wheat
from the United States during Octo-
Der totaled 28,500,000 bushels Great
ed the impression that more export
business was being done than was
reported from day to day. The
news listed wheat out of its early rut
and spurred the maraket to unusual
activity. Later trade, however, was
quiet.
Improved weother conditions over
the corn belt were reflected in in
creased country offerings and ship
ments. Bookings here for arrival
later also we're larger than for some
time. According to reports Mime
apolis was offering cash corn TO
come to Chicago, an unusual event.
Oats did not share the activity of
other grains. Cash interests bought
the deferred deliveries.
