Duke. now confined in a sanitarium at Flushing, l.. l., be brought before him for review of his case, was issued by Justice Gaynor of the supreme court Of Brooklyn.

were landed at various points on the coast where small streams render it's transportation inland an easy task ! The 300 miles of track to the Yalu will probably be laid by the end of this year, certainly early in 1905, but it will be some years before the line can be put in final shape.
 It is possible that there may in the future be some question raised con cerning the right of the Japanese to retain control of the road, for which a French company originally obtained the concession. This company surren- dered it's rights to the Korean govern ment on condition that all materials should be bought in France and only French engineers employed. If Japan is successful in the present war. how ever, her position in Korea will be such that while she may, to avoid all unpleasantness, pay a considerable in demnity to the French interested. there will be no dispUting her claim to the control of the road.
 The strategical importance of. such a line from north to south cannot be Overestimated. It is for this reason that steps are being taken to fortify the island of KOjedo, which guards the harbor of Masampo. A branch line connects Fusan with this neighboring town, and the fortress will be for the express purpose of safeguarding the southern end of the railway.
 Commercially this railroad will do much for Korea. It win, above all things, facilitate the emigration which the Japanese are SO anxious to encour- age. The oId-time seven-day trip be- tween Seoul and Tokio may be made in fifty-siX hours. Already ernigrants are Hooking to the peninsula. All along the railroad the employees Of the line have formed the nucleus of an ever fncreas- ing Japanese colony. Small tradesmen of all sorts are opening their little booths. There are many schemes for the exploitation of the vast tracts of waste land, and in Japan the we'll or ganiZed Emigration societies will un- dertake to bring settlers into the fer tile farm lands. The line is the steel tipped wedge driven far into the very heart of the Hermit kingdom It will be a potent factor in the future development of the peninsula; an eff fective means to Japan's desired end, the absolute domination of Korea.

Whatever mixture of prejudice
there may have been in the valedic-
tory utterance of Senator Kearns,
there is undoubtedly a large share
of gospel truth in his afIirmations
respecting the Mormon oligarchy.
That it controls the destinies of
both of the political parties in Utah
is practically beyond question. That
no man can be elected to any import
ant office, such as the United States
senatorship. who has incurred the
hostility of the Mormon church is
another undoubted fact That the
church controls the religious views
and the commercial welfare of
large share of the citizens of Utah
is also unquestionably true. The rev
elations made by the senator respect-
ing the large income enjoyed by the
president of the church, and like
wise respecting the monarchial char
acter of his religious and financial
rule is an interesting exposition of
an opinion that many people have
held, who have investigated the sit
uation even in a cursory manner.
That the methods of this church.
close corporation .as it is. need in
vestigation, in fact ought to be close
ly investigated. is the view which is
held by a large majority of the
American citizens. who have at any
time encountered the actual condi-
tions of life in Utah. Undoubtedly
no one is better qualified to speak
from large fund of experience in
this respect than United States Sen
ator Kearns.-C Colorado Springs Tel
