world for the moment and were then
forgotten. During Gen. kitchener's
long campaign that has so gloriously
avenged the death of Gordon the tele-
graph has flashed back from across
the desert bits of encouraging news
to which the press of the world has
given more or less prominence for
day. and then continued the constant
scramble for something fresh and so
allowed Kitchener and his little band
of English and Egyptian soldiers to
be forgotten until they had won anoth-
er victory worthy of a front page po-
sition.
But to-day their work has been com
pleted. The army of black fanatics has
been scattered, never 10 meet again. in
. all probability; its leaders, including
the khaIeefa himself. have been slain
with but one exception, and that one is
a fugitive; England has touched the
country with her magic wand and the
result is peace after centuries of strife
and oppression. But the question
arises are the results worth the price
England has paid for them; is the
Soudan worth the lives and treasures
that il has cost?

The Soudan is rich in all of these
things. All that is needed is the men
and means 10 get them to desirable
market, and both of these England
will provide. OF the latter there is
the road which Gen. Kitchener has
built as but the northern portion of
the great line which is TO connect Cairo
and the Cape. Even now branch line
is being talked of, and will undoubt-
edly be built within a short time, that
will pass through British East Africa
and connect the Soudan with the Red
sea and the Gulf of Alden, thus estab.

which the Soudan may compete with
the markets of the world for such
goods as the country produces. The
