DUKE OF ARGYLL
WRITER OF OPERAS

The statement published In the Lon
don Post that Oscar Hammerstein, the
American impresario. has been offered
and has accepted for production at his
London opera house an opera written
by the Duke of Argyll Cwho. as Marquess
OF Lorne, became the husband OF a
daughter OF Queen Victoria. the Prin-
cess I,ouise) Is incorrect The truth is
that the duke, while attending the per-
formance OF ''Herodiade" recently, re-
marked to Mr.. Hammerstein that he had
written such an opera. Its title is ''Fionn
and Terra" from which it is to be- seen
that its motif is Celtic. 1t is not an all
night piece, consisting, OF only two short
acts.
This will not be the present Duke OF
Argylrs first venture in opera. In 1897
he wrote "Diarmld." also on a Celtic
theme which was produced at Covent
Garden Theater. "Fionu and Terra" Is
the second OF a trioIogy, and it must
be very interesting to see how the chief
OF the Clan Campbell. the "MacCailean
Mohr," works into an opera all the gloom
and tragedy of Celtic life and history.
For IL there is really anything in he
redity, his grace Of Argyll ought to have
the true Celtic spirit.
The subject OF the opera Is the old
one OF a man and a woman and the
''tertium quid.' The dramatis personae
are Fionn, Celtic chief OF the Feinne:
Grania. daughter of Cormac, King OF
Ireland: Terra, a maiden Of the Greeks;
Soldier. one OF the Feinne
The Celtic king Is about TO marry for
state reasons Grania, a naughty, ambi-
tious woman whom he does not love,
but he meets the Greek maiden, for
whom he conceiyes q strong passion.
Grania is vindictiye and revengeful. and
she puts a curse upon Terra with the
object OF interrupting the course OF true
love. Tera's life Is in danger. and Fionn,
to save her, throws over Grania and
cllngs to her rival. There Is something
idyllc In the love Of FiOnn and Tera,
but retribution overtakes them all. For
the jealous woman with whom Fionn
has broken his troth there is triumph in
the tragic fate Of the heroine, but death
gives TO poor, dropping Terra the reward
Of the hereafter for her love and her
sufferlngs.

RICH STRIKE IN THE
La SAL MOUNTAINS

James l.. Wade and Albert NJ.
Rogers are justified in feeling highly
elated over the results from assayers'
tests of five samples of uranium ore
taken from their claims on upper
Pack creek. One sample of the ore,
which was thought to be practically
worthless, runs $3.50 ton in urani-
um, and the lowest grade runs s97 a
ton. says the Moab Times.
The ore, which is encountered in
good quantities, is unusually rich.
Messrs. Wade and Rogers will ship
carload at once, and Mr.. Wade
went to the claims Monday morning
TO make arrangements, to, ship.
A representative OF the American
smeltingS & .Refining. company talked
| to. Mr., Wade over the telephone
from Thompsons Sunday, and made
a contract for two years for the pur-
chase of all the ore thatSis delivered

the best grade Of ore and sS7 for the

 Of what he termed Big Business, D Colonel Roosevelt had this to say:
 The antitrust law does good inso- Tar as 1t can be invoked against com blnations which really are monopolies or which restrict production or which art1hcially raise prices. But insofar as Its workings are uncertain or as it threatens corporations which have not been guilty of anti-social- conduct 1t does harm.

 Many eminent lawyers believe that the American people are not fit ted for popular government and that It IS necessary to keep the judiciary independent of the majority of the people l take absolute issue with all those who hold such a position"
 Of the recall of judges, he said:
 The question is one of eXpedien- cy merely. Each community has the right to try the experiment for itself in what ever shape it pleases. I do not believe in adopting the recall save as a last resort when it has be- | come clearly evident that no other | course will achieve the desired re | sult''

 Instead, however, of doing any of these things, the attack on the stat ute here made is of wholly differ ent character. Its essentially politi- cal nature is at once made manifest by understanding that the assault which the contention here advanced makes, is not, on the tax as a tax, but on the state as a state. It is ad- dressed to the framework and politi- cal character of the government by which the statute levying the tax was passed.
 Tt is the government, the political entity, which (reducing the case to it's essence) is called to the bar of this court, not for the purpose of testing judicially some exercise of power, assailed on the ground that it's exertion has injuriously affected the rights of an individual because of the repugnancy to some constitutional limitation, but to demand of the gov ernment that it establish it's rights to exist as a State'
