due allowances for bias, q French view OF
the situation at Fashoda at this moment
1t Is supplied by an explorer. M. Roger
Lazarche dAzay. Struck by the import
ance attached to the place and by the gen.
eral ignorance as to its character. he or
ganized an expedition to Fashoda- His ac-
count Is not calculated to arouse enthu-
stasm- The surrounding country Is but a
pestilential marsh enjoying the worst repu-
tation; nor does he think that the English
would long retain so insalubrious q position
were 1t not for the historic souvenir at
taching to 1t. The garrison has been re-
duced to minimum and consists OF two
officers and q few native soldiers. They
occupy building erected by Commandant
Marchand and still known by his name.
The surrounding country admits of little
development although some effort In that
direction Is being made.
Hunting for big game is most vigorously
forbidden except under the most exacting
conditions. and the commerce In ivory Is
practically government monopoly. M.
d:Azay was able to photograph the arrival
of an ivory convoy. from which the mag
nidcent tusks labeled Fashoda. were borne
by natives in chains but the officers care

sold by its owners for current cash, and
that there was no c0mpulsion IN the maffer.

In the nominating convention Of the lib
eral union party. which. assembled in the

nance of those traditions Of law and order
which have contributed SO much toward
the Industrial advancement Of the country
Whether this party organization viii lead
to the formation of an opposition party re-
mains to be seen. The Indications are that
no such party will be formed. inasmuch as
1t would have to take a position antago-
nistfc to the present administration in or
der to and a reason for its existence. With
such platform 1t would be impossible to
form a party. owing to the absence of any
arttculate opposition sentiment in the coun-
try. The only possibility Is the formation
Of a conservative party, which would soon
be forced into the attitude Of the old cleri-
cal party The resentment aroused by the
conf1scation of church property and the ex-
pulsiOn of monastfc orders might form the
nucleus for conservative or clerical party.
But even here much Of the bitterness has
disappeared. owing to the spirit OF fafrnnss
which has characterized the policy of Pres
ident Diax In his dealings with the church.

Kissing the Book.
From the New Yerk. Tribune

kissing the book" is more generally
practiced in England than in this country
Witnesses have enjoyed for several years
the statutory right of being sworn in the
Scottish fashion, but extremely few exer-
else 1t. despite the frequent objections
urged against kissing the book on sanitary
grounds. A witness in the Newcastle coun-
ty court has centrived to adhere to the
practice. while showing his appreciation Of
the grounds on which doctors have con-
demned it. Immediately he stepped into the
witness box he produced testament from
his pocket to be sworn on. This precau-
ton was at once commended by Judge
GreenweI. who remarked that he himself
would not kiss one Of the court testaments
for FL 600. In court n another part of the
country a testament has been so long In uss
that 1t Is calculated over two hundred thou
sand persons have kissed it. The officials
are said to have made this interesting cal
culation known to the world with feelings
of peculiar pride.
