SOUTH AFRICA GOLD.

There IS one GOOD which will result
from the cessation OF hostiities in
Sonth Africa The operations Of the
Rand mines are expected 10 be re
doubled and the output of the yellow
metal from that source will be cor
respondingly increased The prospects
Of peace had n most marked effect upon
the industry The output of gold for
May was 1900 ounces of fine gold
valued approximately at s2,s0O00O
against an output of 1850 ounces
during April and only 81, 500 for the last
month of 1901 With the definite an
nouncement Of peace. mining operations
will receive an impetus. and it Is calcu-
lated the full monthly output OF 100000
ounces will be resumed ny Jan. /. and
possibly much more.
1t Is urged that the safety and con
venience guaranteed under English
rule will cause the reclamation of many
abandoned mines and also the opening

HOAR AND MORGAN.

Senator Hoar voted against the meas
ure passed by the senate for the gov
eminent of the Philippines. His position
was not so much in antagonism OF the
bill itself as to the principles that we
should govern at all in the islands men
toned. Senator Morgan voted for the
measure because ne believed that it is
altogether right andiproper that, as we
have the Philippines and Will never
let them go, we should make rule to
govern them. When Republican like
Senator Hoar votes against the bill,
fathered by his party. and Senator
Morgan votes for the bill, fathered by
his political enemies. II is about time to
conclude that the Philippine question
IS not strictly party question.-Dallas

A LOST CAUSE.

The San Francisco Call has worked

costly one, both N blood and treasure.
1t results IL the overthrow of two re-
publics, but it lay the foundation for a
united South Africa that may become
some day an independent republic and
be far greater antagonist TO the prln-
ciples of imperialism than the Trans
yaal aud Orange Free State. standing
by tsemselves, could ever have been"
This is the glddiest height of optim-
ism. The most ardent devotee of re-
publican systems must admit that
freedom and independence IN South
Africa are only TO be thought of now as
a remote possibility, TO be considered IN
connection with the gradual decline Of
the empire of Great Britain rather than
IN the possibilities of the Beers dupli-
