Entebbe, capital and port Of entry"
of the kingdom Of Uganda, reached by
steaming across crocodile infested
Lake Victoria Nyanza, on which one
can sail over 200 miles without sight
ing land from the masthead, provides
every facility for invaders of the sur
rounding unknown. Here it was that
the Italian Duke Of the Abruzzi pre-
pared for his notable trip in 1906 to
the snow capped though equatorial
Ruwenzori range, anciently known as
the mysterious Mountains Of the
Noon, lying west Of the particular
territory chosen by Mr.. Roosevelt as
his field, but close enough to afford
him a good view of what Aristotle
termed the Mountain of Silver.
Weeks before the hunters of big
game, like the Roosevelt party, reach
Entebbe preparations are made by
commissioned persons. Native porters
and guides-Bagandas, Swahilis and
Somalis-are engaged as we'll as boys
to aid in the work about the camps,
and large bulk Of supplies is made
ready, saving delay. Most carriers
are Bagandas, the native population Of
Uganda, who have preserved verbal
record of the history of their nation
reaching down through thirty-six
kings from the fourteenth century.
Swahilis are half Arab and half Bantu,
the latter a widely scattered negro
race of small stature. Somalis are
generally incompetent and deceitful.
On the arrival of the hunters and ex-
plorers at Entebbe the final organiZa-
tion Of the caravan, or 'safari," as
such expeditions are termed, is COM

particular work he Is to do afleld, lug
gage is separated into packs Of from
fifty to sixty pounds to be carried on
porters' heads, critical overhauling is

the "outside.'' Early morning, just

Right and Righteous.

The littlesgroup Of midweStern re-
publican senators, who are resisting
the effort of Aldrch and his follow
ing to continue the,Dingley rates, un-
der pretenSe of revision that will
meet the pledge of the platform and
the expectation of voters, are acting
both in the right and rghteously.
They are also serving their party far
more loyalty than are their col
leagues of the standpaU faith.
1t is right to maintain faith with
the voters. 1t is dangerous to trifie
with them. BY resisting the break
ing of faith, by insisting on it's being
Loyalty kept, these senators are serv-
ing their party with loyal good faith.
1t is not they but the others who are
the real insurgents, refusing obedi-
ence to the mandate of party and to
the overwhelming command of con-
stituents.
And their work is most righteous.
When chicanery masks itself in OBJ
scure provisions, when the tricks of
the rapacious are covered with ver
biage to conceal them, it is the work
of righteousness to do what Dolliver
did, tear off the coverings and expose
to public gaze and contempt the sub
terfuges designed to increase the loot
ing Of the public.
1t is one of the signs that the era
of reform and progress is not checked
that these senators brave the organ
ization and regularity would force
