The Alaska Award.
The Alaskan boundary commission
has decided in favor of the United States
on every point except as regirda Port
land canal or inlet which is awarded to
Canada. Portland canal is the south
ern boundary and is but one of many
inlets in that region. Its cession to
Canada is of no particular importance
to either country. The real controversy
was over Lynn canal, far to the north.
It extends into the minland nearly one
hundred miles, and for a great part of
the way is not more than a mile and a
• half wide. At its head are the towns
Dyea and Skagway, the ports of the
Klondike region.
The most important aspect of the
verdict is the settlement of an inter
national question by honest argument
and investigation. Too much credit
cannot be given to Lord Alverstone for
rising above the party view of his own
Government and giving his decisive
vote for what he was convinced to be
the -ruth. That is what the tribunal
was formed for; but the impartiality
necessary to do it is so rare that Lord
Alverstone's course is an eminent ad
vance in the settlement of international
disputes.
The decision is considered a victory
for this country the chief credit for
which is giveu to D. T. Wfftson of
Pittsburg.
POLITICAL.
THAT Senator Stone, of Missouri, "is
a professional lobbyist and has served
as the legislative agent of powerful mo
nopolies dictating legislation by unlaw
ful and corrupt means'' is the charge
formally filed against him in a United
States court.
IT seems that the question at issue
between the Republicans of Washing
ton. Beaver and Lawrence counties
over the method of making,'copgression
al nominations for the district, is not to
be decided until after election. Senator
Penrose! as chairman of the state com
mittee, has said that he will not take
the matter up at present, as no nomina
tions will be made until next year.
As already explained the controversy
between the counties will be decided by
Chairman Penrose, and enongh is
known of his views to jastify the pre
diction that he will sustain the conten
tion of Washington county. We are in
favor of the popular vote plan as being
fair, honest, open, both to the candi
dates and party; free from suspicion
of corruption and bribery: satisfactory
to Republican voters and making no
factional splits in the party.
There is little doubt that Senator
Penrose wil] eettle the question in favor
of the popular vote plan, which will be
very agreeable to Washington and Law
rence counties.—California, Pa., Senti

President Roosevelt has issued a call
for an extra session of Congress to be
emwi i>'. nr<i e \>vc try
tag the reciprocity treaty as the sole
subject for consideration. This call is
made to fulfill a promise made to the
Cuban representatives some months
ago.
ON Wednesday of last week Japan
asked Russia for an official statement
of her intentions as regards Korea:
the Russian governor at Port Arthur
reviewed a Russian army of 76,000 men
there, and the Russian government
ordered two more cruisers to that port.
During the week England sent a
couple more battleships to the scene,
and she is trying to bring aborft an un
derstanding between Russia and Japan.
The Acquittal of Tillman.
▲t Lexington' South Carolina the
trial of Lieutenant Governor James H.
Tillman, who was charged with the
murder of N. G. Gonzales, editor of the
' State" in Columbia, on January 15 last,
ended in an acquittal. The jmy before
which Tillman has been on trial since
September 28th, brought in a verdict of
not guilty, thus ending a judicial hear
ing which has engrossed the attention
of the public of South Carolina as none
other has in the last quarter of a cen
tury. The jury was out for 24 hours
before ariving at a verdict. Never was 1
a case in South Carolina courts more
vigorously contested than this. The
solicitor was assisted in the prosecntion
by four lawyers while the accused was
defended by seven lawyers, an excep
tional array of counsel. More than a
hundred witnesses gave testimony*
about as many an one side as the other,
and nine lawyers argued before the
jury. There was a general exodus last
week from Lexington, the population
of which has been materially increased
during the trial. Practically every one
attending bad come from other parts of
the State. Mr. Tillman left on an
afternoon train for his home in Edge
field, accompanied by his wife and
friends from nis home county.
After the verdict had oeen recorded
the motion by counsel of defense for the
discharge of the defendant was imme
diately signed by Judge Gary, the
solicitor for the statu assenting,
and Tillman was at liberty.
When the legal formalities had been
gone through with Tillman walked np
to the bench and shook bands with the
judge, after which he shook the hand
of each of the jurors, and later was sur
rounded by bis friends, who extended
their congratulations.
This man, Tillman, is a brother of the
cotorious Senator. He shot down an
unarmed man, in the street, for pub
licly criticizing his official acts. It look
ed like a cold blooded, deliberate mur
der, and to us, bis acquittal seems a
travesty ou justice.

Accident at Wortliiugtou.
While Frank It. Patterson. Curtis Mc-
Call and John B. Mcllwain of Bmler
Clarence Baker and two others named
Deemer and Donahne of Armstrong
connty were at work. Friday afternoon,
connecting a big Speechly gasser on the
Robt Claypole farm, near Wortbington,
into a main line of the Philadelphia Gas
Co., the immense presnre, nearly 1000
pounds,in the well blew tbeheadgate or
thottle out of the end of the pipe with
which the men were working and hurl
ed them through the air as though shot
from a cannon. Patterson and McCall,
who were directly in front of the pipe,
were picked up unconscious 75 feet
away. Their clothing had been partly
stripped from their bodies, and their
faces, necks and hands diiven full of
splinters, sand and small particles of
debris till, as Harry Patterson, a broth
er of Frank, put it. they could not be
recognized and looked worse than email
I pes victims.
| McCall's arm had been broken above
and below the elbow, and he had a long
I gash in his bead and neck
Patterson's worst injury was a hole,
j abont three inches deep, in his right
side just above the hip. Whatever hud
made the bole had shattered the hip
bone very badly.
MeElwain, who was stooping in front
of the *>ipe, was t-trnck on the head by
the escaping volume of gas and rolled
over at-d over like a ball for a distance
of forty fe<-t and rendered senseless.
His forejiead and cheeks were driven
full of small particles Tjf del iris and at
first it was foarojJ his tyes had been put
out, which fortunately was incorrect.
The other three men were thrown
about and cnt and brused, bat not seri
ously.
Luckily the gas did not ignite.
The injured rntu were taken to their
boarding place nearby and doctors were
summoned from Woithington aud Kit
tanning. who dre.-'sed their injuries.
McCall soon recovered consciousness
but Patterson remained senseless until
Satnrday morning.
On Saturday afternoon, Drs. Bricker
of Butler and W eid man of Mercer went
to Worthington to remove pieces of
broken Patterson's hip. but
found him improving so well that the
operation was deemed unnecessary.
The force of the blow received by
Patterson is shown by the fact that a
gold watch,carried in his wafceh pocket,
was torn to pieces. Its hands had stop
ped at 3:15
Patterson is a son of Cal Patterson,
McCall a son of McKee McCall and Mc
llwain a son of Wm. B. Mcllwain of

A sad sequel to the death of young
Chas Moore, by lightning, near Eakinh
Corners, occurred a few days ago. Wil- j
liam Langford, of New Castle, was
visiting at the home of his nncle, Al.
Moore, in company with Otis
Davis, a neighbor of his uncle, was
hunting chestnuts, when he fell from a
tree a distance of 40 feet, sustaining in
juries from which he died Tuesday
morning. The remains were taken to
New Castle for interment. He was
aged about 19 years. Mr. Moore's win,
Lester, and Otis Davis, who was with
Lnn^-ford at the time of the ac
cident. are the young men who were
injured by being struck by lightning a
few days before, when their companion,
Charles Moore, was killed. Both Moore
and Davis have abont recovered.
The Water street pier of the new
Wabash bridge, Pittsbnrg, was the
scene of a terrible accident, last Mon
day morning. The travelling crane, |

lapsed, while ten tons of steel beams
were being hoisted by it from barges in
the river, and the hfteen men on the
crane fell with the > teams and pieces to
the river or struck tbe barges below.
Ten were instantly killed, and the other
five badly injured. Among tbe killed

he lay in the hospital for nine months
after. The entire crane did not full
