Excerpt from The Alaskan Boundary In January, 1886, the Minister of the United States in Lon don, acting under instructions, proposed the appointment of a joint commission, which should designate and establish the boun dary line, or else report such data as might afford a basis for its establishment by a new treaty. The Dominion Government, to whom this proposal was referred, expressed the opinion that a preliminary survey was preferable to a formally-constituted joint commission, and suggested that such a survey would enable the two governments to establish a satisfactory basis for the delimita tion of the boundary and demonstrate whether the conditions of the convention of 1825 are applicable to the now more or less known features of the country.
