interfere with the beet sugar interests
of the country. He urged upon these
senators the Importance of united ac-

pine bill, offered several amendments.

KITCHENER
The Hero Of The Hour

London, June 3. One Of the most
curious feature. Of the war is the re.
markable way in which Lord kitch.

Spect. akin to fear, with which the
the British nation regards him and his
laconic reports aud MS utterly inde-
pendent prosecution Of the ampaign
in South Africa has heightened his
military reputation to such an extent
that he has actually become god to
the man in the street Yet he is uni
verSally admitted to have next to
nothing in common with his country
men or their government. AS Lord
Kitchener'S star has ascended 50 has
Lord Roberts declined. The general
optimism OF the old fighter, who is
now commander in chief, CRATES 50
bitterly upon a people severely over
taxed for the war which Lord Roberts
SO long ago declared finished, tnat the
spontaneous popularity which IN de
him the hero Of the jubilee procession
could never be repeated at the corona.

to be transformed into hostile dem

name may be greeted with cheers.
However, peace is undoubtedly the
question OF the hour, and Lord kitch.
ener is once more the man Of the mo.
ment. Lord Miner may or may not
have played an important part in the
peace negotiations, but popular aud
political opinions assign to the ex-
Sirdar Of the Egyptian forces the
bringing about Of the present negotia

confined to outsiders Great financial
