The Alaskan Bomidary Commis sion Is now in session In London and the pronnodings nre being followed with intense interest both 1)7 offlo ials of the stats department nnd by those citizens familar with the con tentions of the United State? nnd Great Brltian. Already the AniTi can commissioners have made n strong point. It is that the United States hns, from the time of the cushion of Alaska to the present day, maintained but one Interpreta tion of the treaty of 125. The Canadian or British contentions, on the other hand, have varied repeated ly. From ademand that the dividing line be drawn on the 41st meridian, down to the contention that the line bo drawn straight across such arms of the sea as Glacier Bay and Lynn ennal, the British have boon modifying their demands and givlnit evidence of possessing a claim which mnst depend for snccoss on skillful diplomacy rather than on the equit able Interpretation of the fact. The presence of Ex-Hoerotary of State Foster as "agent" of the American commissioners Is a source of gratifi cation to the state department as It is realized that he is, more than any other individual, able to present tho case of this country in its strongest light an 1 hopes ore running hip;h as to the eventual outcome of tho proceedings. Tho European squadron lias ar rived et Beirut but so unsettled are conditions in Turkey reported to be that the state department is waiting for further advices from Minister Lmshman before Instructing Admir al Cotton to opon the sealed orders he found awaiting him. The situ ation in Constantinople has become so grave that the government has lieen obliged to advise the ambassa dors and ministers to guard their embassies and legations with un usual care. Tho Turkish govern ment h is added to the street patrol in the vicinity of the foreign quartor and the diplomats have gonorally called npon the station ships of their respective nations for guards of marines. Tho United States lega tion now hos a small guard of police but Minister Loishman has been authorized to call npon Admiral Cotton for a squad of marine if the situation sooms to warrant it. It is also possible that one of the Amori oan vossels, probably the Machiaa will go through the Dardanelles and anchor off Constantinople in ordor that it may be in roadtness to roceive the Minister aud his family in the event of a genoral uprising. While thore is a provision in the troaty effected just after the Crimean war prohibiting war ships from entering the Dardanelles, there is also a clause which pormits the entry of one ship of eaoh friendly power when Turkey is itself at war. President Roosevolt has announc ed an important policy which is hereafter to govern the American consular sorvioe. With the greatly increased extension of the foreign trade of the United States, it has become daily mora apparout that greater efficiency in the consular servioe was required and the presi dent has determined to tako a long tup in the direction of promoting that efficiency by adopting a policy of promotion for consuls who have proved their ability. Hereafter, it is announced, no one will bo ap pointed consul at an important pot t until he has served at a pout of loss importance fur a sufficient time to demonstrate his ability and general fitness for promotion. While this policy does not extend to the con Bular service the protection of the civil service regulations, or neces sary extend the tenure of office of the consuls, it is claimed that it H-.MS give to the commercial interests of this country assurance that in a compamtively brief time all import ant consular stations will bo filled, not only by men of character and ability, but by mou who, by training and experience, are especially fitted to Hdvance tho trade interests of tho Uli.ted Suites. The 1 resident is likely to bo soon culled upon to decide au important ci ctrover-y i-fteeu t he rt : ira ci t e .ill miners and tho Di ptirtn.elit of Cuunimrett Bud Lii't.i ir.

As the principle in volved is the same as that, contained in the law creating the Bureau of Corporations in the Department of Commorco, the whole situation has boon submitted to Secretary Cortol you. Ho in turn, nmde a final ap pcl for the information to President B tor but Mr. Boor positively declined to furnish the desired data nnd tho problem will now go to tho president. Under tho law, it is claimed, the operators who refuse to furnish the statistics cnlled for by the government are liable to a penalty of f 10,000 and some of the officials believe that Mr. Baor and his colleagues are preparing to tost that law. Another important decision ex pected almost daily from the prosi- dent is In the cise of William Miller, the public printing ofHco foreman who was expelled by the bookbind ers' union, was discharged by Pnblio Printer Palmer, was subsequently reinstated by ordor of the president and against whom charges have since been preferred by the union, Palmer has recommended Miller's discharge on the grounds furnished by tho charges and his recommends Hon togother with all the details of the case have been sent to Oyster Bay. With this material thore also went to Oyster Bay the results of the special investigation of the methods employed in the printing office. Those are paid to include a recommendation that typo setting machines be installed in the office for at least a portion of the work and also that the task system be abolished, the task system being a stipulation on the part of the unions that only a limited amount of work be performed by each man per day.

WOMEN Women, if Allowed, Would Make Excellent Officers in Keeping Municipalities in Good Cleanly Condition "The Making of a City" was the subject of a recent loctura by Prof. CharltiB Genblin of the Univesity of Chicago. It is a lecture replete with valuable suggestions for oivic clubs. Tho professor says. "The houso wivos of the city know a great deal more about cleaning and keeping clean, than the bnsy bard-headed business mon who are supposed to look after the streets. The term municipal housekeeeptng is not a misnomer. Therefore the task of oleaning the streets, and keeping them clean, should be turned over to the housowives, who are expor ioncod, in toad of being left to bo mismanaged by business men." This is practical advice. It is absurd to entrust, the housekeeping of a city to mon who oould not run thoir individual homes without the assistance of women. City mothers would never endure the blundering results frequently perpetrated by city fathers. In one district of Philadelphia the streets are swept one day. and followed the next day by the collection of ash?s and gar bage. The flying papers and dirt attendant on this collection remains on the streets until the next weekly sweeping. What competent council worn an would tolerate such reversed housekeeping, city or domestic? Taxpnying women everywhere should insist in the ballot as the means of protection to the home. Until women can elect candidates to fill municipal positions, it is a vain struggle for thorough and efficient municipnl housekeeping. The ballot placos onr oity rulers in, power, and constituents are rewarded with op portunities and positions. As women cannot vote, and are not constitu ents, bow oan they obtain tho oppor tunity to serve the housekeeping of the city? Ida Porter Boyer.

General Crop Condition In the southern and central seotions of the corn belt the early crop is maturing rapidly and late corn in the great corn states has made satisfactory progress. An average crop of apples is promised from portion of New England and the Middle Atlantic States, while in other sections they are dropping Buck wheat, is generally good. Po tatoes are fast declining owing to blight and rot. Tomatoes rotting and blighting badly, lima beans affected by mold and garden produce generally backward and unsatis factory.

Public Land Stealing The grave charges made against Secretary Hitchcock have further basis than the attempts of irresponsi ble newspaper men to create sensa tional news. It is rumored that the eflorts to secure Mr. Hitchcock's downfall emanate from those who have been defeated in thoir efforts at public land stealing by the secretary's investigations and rulings. Exami nations into and light thrown upon the land grabs in the Indian Terri tory, and throughout the entire west will lead to radical reform in the land laws, if the president and his secretary of the interior have their way. Congress will be strongly apjiealed to to put an end to existing conditions, under which land robbing is easy, both of the nation and of bona fid settlors. The grafters may proceed legally, but they evade the spirit of the law through technicali ties. The land office records show thousands of acres of timber land being sold every month at 12.50 which is known to be worth f50 an acre. It pushes at once into the hands of timber speculators. Legislation should be so shaped that dummy entries on the public domain are impossible and to prevent speculators, cattle barons and large stock interests gaining control and ownership of vast tracts of grazing lands. It is recommended that the desert land act be repealed; also that the com mutation clause of the homestead act l)e removed and that the timber and stone law be repealed.
