1t is well to understand that not Eng
lishmen alone but many Americans
have a vital interest in the efforts of
the Salisbury government to obtain
justice for the Uitlanders in the Trans
vaal. 1t has been asserted that the best
brain and highest mechanical and en-
gineering skill employed in the develop
ment of the mining properties in Paul
Kruger's country have been furnished
by Americans. But whatever their ma
tiOnality, all who are not natives are
in the same boat, for they have nothing
to expect from the Doppers. The
character of the concessions offered by
President Kruger at the Bloemfontein
conference may be shown by a single
circumstance. He proposed that from
the date of the agreement seven years
should be deemed sufficient to endow
Uitlanders with citizenship, providing
three-fourths of the Beers of the neigh
borhood voted to give it to them. Their
previous residence of five or ten years
or what not was to be ignored, together
with their large property interests
That was the extent of the franchise
concession offered, provided England
would abandon her right to protect her
own citizens in the Transvaal and re-
nounce the former treaty which forbids
the Boer republic entering into any en-
gagement with other foreign powers
without British consent. The Beers
policy is to keep all he has, grab all he
can get and allow nothing to the i'm
migrant

w. H. Clarke's disclosures concerning
the methods employed by the Standard
Oil company in throttling competition,
really tell nothing that was unknoW n
before, though it may be worth while
to have this testimony from one who
was on the inside and had every op-
portunity for personal observation. The
company has sometimes been graphi-
calIy Iikened to a highway robber, gar
roter and thug, but hard names can
have no effect upon men who deiiber-
ately lift a mans store from over his
head and carry off his place of bust
ness. People are apt to condone the Of
fenses of these monopolists because of
the decline in the price of oil. but the
fact is, prices went down during the
competitive period and before the mo-
nopoly was fully established.

Adjutant General Dalton's order ex-
cluding from the militia all members
who failed to pass the physical exam
iuation preparatory to entering the
United States service, a year ago,
would, if rigidly enforced, sweep away
many embarrassments that have af-
hicted neary every regiment and COM
pany in the state. In no city has the
conflict of interests been more keenly
felt than in Worcester, where there
have been duplicate officers for every
company and almost every position.
Gen. Dalton's order has the true mill
tary ring, for it virtually adopts the
standard of the regular army as that

The name of Gridley ]. F. Bryant,
the Boston architect, was once scarce
ly less familiar throughout the coun-
try than that of his distinguished IA
ther, the inventor of many railroad de-
vices and the builder of the first bit
of track in the country. that little
branch which aided in the transporta-
ton of granite from Quincy for the
construction of Bunker hill monument.
The son died in the Old Mems home
which he himself had desigred. The
fact suggests an incident of travel in
the west, where the people of certain

"THE IDOLS EYE"
Manager Rock Benefits With Frank Dan
ieIs as Attraction.

There was a good sized house at the
Worcester Theatre last night to see
Frank Daniels in The IDOLS Eye" the
occasion being the annual benefit to
Manager James F. Rock. With a less
familiar piece, the attendance would
doubtless have been much greater, and
at is was, enough of the benefciary's
friends were present to insure the pop
ular manager a gratifying surplus as a
vacation fund. The torridity of the at
mosphere did not affect the spirits Of
Daniels, nor his companions a whit,
and he seemed funnier than ever, while
the choruses were given with snap
and zest that was as refreshing as d
mint julep. The cast and production
were unchanged from its last appear

ed $55O0,000 in gold, this week, and
there are others to be heard from. The
indifference with which the export

decision knocks down everything, and
the parties in interest are in statu quo
