Coastline Boundary and Mountain Ranges Argument
A Skagway Daily Alaskan excerpt argues against British claims that the boundary should lie closer to the coast within ten marine leagues. It contends the White Pass and Chilcoot Pass committees cannot be at a summit of coastal mountain ranges, which extend along the coast from latitude 56 north to longitude 14 west. Summits are passes, not continuous ranges, and the ranges lie between rivers draining to the Pacific rather than parallel to the coast.
