The announcement of General
Dodge, chairman of tho War In
vestigation Commission, that he
“can” begin to see the end of the
long inquiry, is unsatisfactory be
cause in the absence of any au
thentic information of th® gener
al’s knowledge of grammer it
leaves doubt as to whether be
has begun or shortly will begin,
nor ia there, indeed anything to
indicate his inclinations in the
matter. As for any significance in
the fact that publication of the
general's statement was coincident
with the publication of the elec
tion returns it may mean that
now the elections are over the see
ing of the end may be begun at
any time without doing much
harm,

By’ no means the bast ’remark
able thing about Geu. Kitchener's
. Soudan campaign was its low cost.
According to his own account, the
whole expense of the movement
j during its two and a half years of
cont nuance was 12,500,003 say
$12,500,000 and this included not
I
only the transportation and main
tenance of the troops but the
building of 700 miles of well-equip
ped railway and .2,000 miles ot
telegraph. It would have been an
1 extremely low price for rhe rail
e .
way alone, even conceding that it
was built, as much of it was by

merely laying the railsand ties on
the level sand with little or no
1 j grading. The economic feature of
