INSTRUMENTATION.

0vercapitaliza tion harms the community as well
as the individual. Therefore it is the duty of
tional and State governments to prohibit capitaii
zation in excess of money actually invested. or
the fair cash value of the plants taken over.
Then investors will not be cheated so often and
stock speculation will be less active and danger

We are beginning to suspect that the
Administration is seriously considering the
impropriety of taking Sampson along in
the Presidential band wagon on the West

naval man. II Dewey is left at home, so
that he shall not be insulted by such con-
TACT it may be a good idea.

Ser Maiesty's Government is not confd-
ing its actions or intentions 10 the press, and
hence what happenedsat the Cabinet council
yesterday is to some extent conjeetural.
The Pail Mall Gazette" claims TO have
Information that the basis of an ultimatum
was agreed upon, and that Lord Salisbury
and ~ Chamberlain will draft note ac-
oordingly TO be passed upon at an adjourned
Cabinet meeting next Tuesday. The de-
mands 10 be made upon the Transvaal state
as a inality are understood to be: The
iye-year franchise qualification, without
hampsring conditions; municipal sslfgov-
ernment at johannesburg on freely cleo
tive basis; the independence of the judi
cature from the executive and its inde
psndence of the Volksraad: the abolition of
the dynamite monopoly; and the teaching
Of the English language in the schools.
These conditions. upon which England is
willing TO recognize and protect the inter
nal independence of the South African Re-
public, are fair and reasonable, and do not
involve greater concessions to English resi-
dents in the Transvaal than are accorded
to Afrikanders in Cape Colony. But they
viii not be considered by the Beers, who.
throughout South Africa. are apparently OF
a single mind as to their ability to drive
the British out of that end of the CONT
nent with slaughter. With this wild con-
viction imbedded in the brains of the ignor-
ant and fanaticaI Dutch element, and with
their troops already massing on the border

Altogether, the wreck Of the English
language presented in these six or seven
poems is quite as impressive as anything
that could have been seen in Manila Bay
after Dewey's arrival. Perhaps 1t is a
good thing that the Admiral does not come
home every day. or the inhabitants of the
