It's Tonsli on Blaine
When secretarr Blaine rets into tate
o' mind about the Behrine sea aeal. he
always falls back on the statement that
our jurisdiction in that chilly neighbor
hood is precisely what Russia's v as, ana
that hers was jurisdiction over a large
area in Behrine sea outside the three-
mile limit. That has alwavs been one of
secretary Blaine's strongest points. We
bought all the title that Russia Baa in
Behrine sea and she claimed, and the na
tions did not deny her claim, all that we
do now.
But this chain of title is clouded, tolsay
the least, by an extraordinary article
that Haiuer's Weekly has had translated
from the St. Petersburg Journal, which
is described as the semi-official organ of
the Russian foreign office. The Journal
snvs Russia never had nor ver seriously
claimed an exclusive jurisdiction oyer
Bebring sea, beyond the three mile limit.
"The ukase of 1821 vtas practically
withdrawn in 1924, and had been aban
doned before that time, and was again
disclaimed in 1826; it was never in
tended seriously and had never been so
taken by Russia or England."
The Journal adds:
"At the time of the sale of Alaska to
the United States the Russian privileges
for exclusive fishing in Behring sea,
a .,,u, th lrne nf 1S21. had
long ago been abandoned and passed out
f ;... Th United States, there
fore, has no justification for basing its
Behring sea claims on the alleged posses-
ixf riirht. hv RllfUtifl &t the time
IUU Mi W"V. J
of the transfer of Alaska, for we did not
at that time possess any ngnts or privi
leges of this character."
This of course is not official, but that
England will make it so in some, form is
almost certain. When it comes to her
claims in foreign territory Queen Victoria
is very wide awake daily.
Al.L persons of northern birth now
residing in North Carolina who are in
terested in the development of the re
sources of the state have been called to
assemble in convention in the city of
Raleigh on the 27th day of May, to take
such steps as may be thought advisable
toward co-operating with the southern
inter-state immigration bureau in calling
a convention of all the settlers in the
southern states. Much of the present
or Indiana or one of these two in
addition to Connecticut and West Vir
ginia. If perchance the tigm in io
should center in tne uuuuuu.
republicans would thus have many more
obstacles to overcome than if the demo
cratic Legislature in Mienigan nau pi
tamuered with the method ol choosing
electors.
