The award made by the de(:isiori
of the Alaska Boundary Triblmal
October 20, 1903, is contrary to
the letter and spirit of the Con-
vention of 1825, and in defiance of
the intention and understanding of
the two Governments then inter-
ested, and is not a sound judicial
decision, according to George Da-
vidson, scientist. Prof. Davidson
in 1867 made a geographical re-
connaissance of the coast of Alas-
ka and the report upon the re-
sources of the country, with a
view to ascertaining the advisa-
bility of adding it to the United
States, and spoke with authority.
He claimed the U. S. surrendered
part of the rights which Russia
had persistently refused to yield
to Great Britain rights which
she held unchallenged by any gov-
ernment for 42 years and which
the United States had held for 36
years more. The decision relating
to the Portland Channel he deem-
ed a "geographical paradox."

The award made by the de(:isiori
of the Alaska Boundary Triblmal
October 20, 1903, is contrary to
the letter and spirit of the Con-
vention of 1825, and in defiance of
the intention and understanding of
the two Governments then inter-
ested, and is not a sound judicial
decision, according to George Da-
vidson, scientist. Prof. Davidson
in 1867 made a geographical re-
connaissance of the coast of Alas-
ka and the report upon the re-
sources of the country, with a
view to ascertaining the advisa-
bility of adding it to the United
States, and spoke with authority.
He claimed the U. S. surrendered
part of the rights which Russia
had persistently refused to yield
to Great Britain rights which
she held unchallenged by any gov-
ernment for 42 years and which
the United States had held for 36
years more. The decision relating
to the Portland Channel he deem-
ed a "geographical paradox."
