LET US HAVE PEACE"

The Deseret News of last evening I'M
dertook to fight the last few days of the
late municipal campaign all over again.
If the News hasn't had enough of the
battle just ended the fault is its own.
1t should have started in little earlier,
so as TO be ready to quit when the bal
lots were counted. This is a chronic
trouble with our evening contempor-
airy, however. 1t never fails to jump
in at the eleventh hour and stir up
more bitterness than results from all
the rest of the fight put together.
In the campaign just ended it made
the accustomed play on the eve of the
election and covered its pages with
three-liners advising people to vote the
Republican ticket. These were adver-
tisements perhaps, but there was moth
ing to indicate to the readers of that
paper that it wasn't thus voicing the
dominant church.
In connection with these words of
counsel it printed an editorial or two
which so delighted its erstwhile adver-
sary, the storm starter, that our jour-
nalistic neighbors fell upon each others
neck and wept like long lost brothers
come together
Our evening contemporary intimates
that there is a rumor afloat to the eff
feet that it carried the city for the Re-
publicans this time. We trust this is
Republican boast, rather than Dem
ocratic complaint. There is nothing to
base it on except an obvious effort to
do something of the kind, but we are
inclined to believe that those who at
tribute the result to the News over
estimate its influence and overlook it's
constant protestations of absolute nom
craftsmanship.
1t is not only wrong to hold the News
responsible for the success of the cru
sader's ticket. but very foolish to do so.
The only palpable. effect of its course
is to inflict upon the public its newt
able explanations of what it did TO
arouse suspicion.

SELF GOVERNME EMIT.

It is Mr.. Hanna's idea, SO eloquently
expressed by Mr.. Mckinley. that gov
eminent by us would be a great bless
ing to the Filipinos. There is no ques-
ton about il. from our standpoint. but,
as the Hongkong Mail, an English
newspaper. says:
The United States government will be
better for the islanders than any govern
ment of their own but ii Will never sat
isfy them, because il is not their govern
ment American ways are not their ways.
American ideals are not their ideals. and
the United States viii be compelled TO rule
them by force ard without the consent
OF the governed
Mr. Bryan made an apt reply TO Mr..
McKinley's statement at the close of
the campaign in Nebraska when he
said: Every king, every emperor,
every despot confidently believes that
he and his government will provide for
his subjects a government that will
bring them blessings. promote their
material interests and advance them in
the paths of civilization and intelli-
gence."
And this recalls the words of Lincoln:
Kings always bestrode the necks of
the people, not that they wanted to do
it. but because the people were better
off for being ridden"
If the president can think of no other
way to regain the good will of the Fill
pinos than by licking them to a finish
then let them be licked and quickly.
But other ways have been pointed out
ways that seem to be better. and
cheaper, and more creditable. How
ever that may be. aside from any dis
cussion of the war, its purpose Or con-
duct, it is in order for every American
citizen to consider and make up his
mind and speak it freely concerning the
policy of Philippine retention. No
four-year official has any right to ac-
-quire a white elephant and leavesit on
the hands Of an unconsulted people.
without referring to the war at all
it may be said that Bryan and Lincoln
stated facts. What they said has been
true of every monarch in the past from
Nero to Nicholas. the present car of
all TIE Russians. 1t. was the claim of
the STAKEHOLDER. and the wealthy 5men.

LESSON FROM ST. GEORGE,

The news from st. George is reassur-
ing. 1t seemed almost too good to be
true, at first, but it has been verified
by subsequent reports. Here it is:
The Democratic ticket was elected
today without opposition, no other
party being in the field. The Repub-
licans did not even endeavor to secure
the nomination of one councilman this
tis..e-''
There is consolation unalloyed by
doubt The Democratic ticket was the
only ticket in the field, and it won.
Under similar conditions we might have
won in this city.
st. George Democrats are Democrats
of the Jackson kind. They brook no
opposition. There ought to be inspira-
ton in their success for Democrats in
Salt Lake City. In St. George they
won the election at the nominating con-
vention. When Republicans. Populists
and Socialists saw the color of the
trump they all passed.
Moral: The place to win elections is
at the party convention

WEALTH OF THE TRANSVAAI.

Had the Beers settled in a less re-
sourceful region than the Transvaal.
they would have escaped contact with
civilization probably for another CEN
fury or so. If there had been no gold
or diamond mines discovered in South
Africa. it is doubtful if the present
state of war would have existed ever.
Il was the marvellous richness of the
country that first attracted the atten-
ton Of promoters, spectators and cap
stalists who induced shipioads of min
ers and fortune hunters to visit the
mines; it is this mineral wealth which
furnishes the foundation for imperial
action today. So many Englishmen
have gone to the Transvaal that they

The richness OF the Transvaal is
little understood. In spite of the OBJ
stacles TO development and the oppres-
sIons imposed by the Dopper govern
lnent as a means. of representation.
these mines have been wonderfully and
interestingly prosperous. Legislative
exacsions and exorbitant taxation have
been most burdensome during the past
three years. Yet the number Of gold
mining companies that have paid diyi-
dends had Increased from twenty in
1895 80 forty-five in 1898. These forty
five companies paid dividends OF S25.-

bends of 1897. OF the gold output of the

doubtful if we will ever be able to con-

ern part OF the republic. Copper and
silver abound in the vicinity of Pre-
toria.
Another source of wealth and war in
the Transvaal is the diamond indus
try. 1t, too, has developed rapidly, not
withstanding the excessive taxes. In
1897 5,792 carafs were produced. valued
at s57,5oO, while in 1898 this output had
increased to 22,s43-carats, with a value
of S21S.650. This industry is in its in
fancy in the Transvaal but its rapid
growth has caused many to look upon
il With longing eyes.
There are immense beds of coal there.
and the business has been expanding
with the rest No less than 1,907,SoS
tons of coal were sold in 1898, against
l,e00,2l tone in 1897. Only three COM
panies are paying dividends, but they
last year paid $3s0,c0O on capital of
s4.45o,O0o. or about s-5 per cent. In 1897
they paid only S2s7.s00.
Owing to the uncertainty of rainfall
the agricultural development of the
Transvaal is glow, and by no means in
wiling to colonizers. If it were not for
the mineral wealth il is doubtful if my
one would try to live there but people
like the Beers. With fine climate and
fertile soil the rainfall is not only very
irregular, but often suspends opera
tions in large areas for three or four
years at a stretch.
The Outlander question had its origin
in the search for gold and diamonds.
When the soil is stripped of these John
Bulls interest in the form of govern
ment there win vanish too.

Notes On the Study of the Play.

| 1. The earliest mention which we have
of King Lear" is an entry in the reg
listers OF the Stationers' company Up
to the passing of the copyright act in
1912 the law required that every pub
LEGATION should be entered in these reg
listers. and, accordingly. under the date
of Nov. 20, 1907. we find: Entered
A booke called Master William Shake
speare. his historye of Hinge Lear as
vt was played before the Hinges ma
jestie at Whitehall upon Sainct Ste
phens night at Christmas Last, by his
at the Globe on the Banksyde.'
2. There was a considerable interval
between this entry of the play and it's
publication, for it was not till 1908 that
I it appeared in the usual small quarto
form with the following imprint:
London: Printed for Nathaniel But
ter, and are to be sold at his shop in
Pauls Churchyard at the signe of the
Pide Bull, neere st. AuStinS Gate. 16DS.
That the publication was authorized
either by Shakespeare himself or by the
company of actors then playing at the
Globe theatre there is no reason to
suppose. It was the interest of the ac-
tors to guard their property in a new
play as jeelously as possible. and the
longer it was before it got into print
the less likely 1t was to fall into the
speare himself never took the trouble
to have his plays published; about half
of them were first printed without his
authority and the remainder first ap-
peared in the collected edition which
was put forth in 1923, seven years after
the authors death.
3. The story of King Lear and his
daughters belongs to British legendary
history. 1t is found in several earlier
publications. Shakespeare's play
seems to have been founded mainly on
the story as told in Holinshed's Chron-
icle, dated 1874.
4. But the story of Lear does not con-
stitute the whole of the play before us.
Skillfully interviewer with il and ar
tistically welded with it into a compact
whole is the story of Gloucester and
his two sons. OF this no trace is to be
found either in Holinshed or in the
Chronicle History. 1t occurs in the
second book of Sir Philip Sidneys ar
cadia.' a romance first printed in 1890.
and is called: THE pitifull state and
storie of the Paphlagonian unkinde
King and his kind some first related
by the son. then by the blind father"
). AS is usual with Shakespeare, the
opening scene, simple as it seems. gives
the key to the situation. The figures
on the stage are two noblemen, Kent
and Gloucester. and a lad. or young
gentleman Kent's first remarks show
us the courtier's establishment at
sudden change of purpose in the king.

fected q. e.. cared more fcr) the duke
of Albany than Cornwall
Glo.-"It did always seem so to US:
but now. in the division of the kingdom,

From this we learn that the keynote
of the kings character is fickleness.
