TELLS OF eoaDoN's WEAKNESS.
Lord Cromer Throws Light cn History
 of Hero of Sudan.

In his book, Modern Egypt Lord Grcmer, for 20 years the representa-. tive of British au hority in the land of the khediye. gives the other side of the heroic story of Gen Gordon s rule in Khartum, where he was slain | by the fanatical natives. Lord Gro mer twice rejected the proposal to send Gordon to the Sudan. Would :" { he says, that I had done so a thir1 i tiine,' He soon woke to Gordon's variability. He says ImBulsiye lightiness was. in fact, the main de I feet of Gen. Gordon's character, and 1t was one which in my opinion, ren- ! dered him unfit to carry out work which pre-eminently required a cool and steady head. 1 used to receive 20 or 90 telegrams from Gen. Gordon 1 in the course of the day when he was in Khartum, those in the evening often l giving opinions which itfwas impos- sfble to reconcile with others dis patched the same morning.
 This stream of teegrams from Khartum was so continuous that Lord Cromer had to adopt a special meth cd of dealing with them. 'I gen erally found a batch of them wait ing for me when I began my work in the morning" he says My prac- tice was to put them on one side and wait till safte.noon. by which time more had Generally arrived. I used then to compare the different tele- grams to try to extract from them what it was that Gen Gordon really wanted, and then to decide what could be done toward carrying out his wishes.
 Lord Cromer says, also: "One of the leading features of Gen. Gordon s strange character was his total ab- sence of self-control. He was liable to fits of ungovernable and often of most unreasonable passion. He formed rapid opinions without delib- eration and rarely held to one opinion long. His journal, in which his thoughts from day to day are re- corded, is, even in the expurgated form in which it was published, a mass of inconsistencies
 Gen Gordon's courage is kMarmly praised by Lord Cromer, who says fur ther: Many man before Gen. Cor don has laid down his life at the call of duty. Many a man. too has striven :! to regard death as glad relief from i pain, sorrow and suffering. But no soldier about 10 lead forlorn hope nc Christian martyr tied to the stake or thrown to the vild beasts of ancient Rome, ever faced death with more un- concern than Gen. Gordon

 The hearts hunger for the sacred ness of sole possession.
 Living in the shadows of love, not it's sunshine.
 Suspicion breeding doubts of loyal ty.
 A stain on the ermine of loye's faith. Fear of loss poisoning the waters of possession.
 An agony of doubt torturing the soul of trust.

SPECIAL PRIVILEGES T
 NONE.

Surrender Of government functions to private corpora tions under quise of protecting the nationa. welfare cannot much longer receive the sane ton of an intelligent people who believe the government was instituted for the protection Of life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness. As long as gov ernment is the fountain of spe- cial privileges, powerful inter ests will dominate Legislation, law will be dictated by the cor rupt lobby, corporations will control legislators and even judges. end executives will be. tray their trusts. As long as the law Of the land is made the source of corporate dividends, the campaign contributions of corporate interests will control political conventions and the rarty machine for the aomina- tion and election of its eandi- dates, ana our so.called public servants will be private agents fer the public undoing. There Is lust one remedy for official crib cry and campaign corruption, and that fs, to remove the mo- tive by cutting off all govern ment grants of special privilege. The enforced guaranty of equal rights to ali will free the party organization from corporate arasp and restore it to the com. mon people.
