KITCHENER'S PROCLAMATION".
San Francisco Call.
A recently issued parlimentary japer
contains the full text of the proclama
tion of Lord Kitchener on August 7.
calli.-g upon all Boer commanders and
leaders to surrender their forces before
September 15 under penalty of being
permanently banished from South Af
rica when captured. The prociamatln
contains the , further announcement:
The cos: of the maintenance of the
f&milies of a'd burghers in the field who
hive not surrendered by Septerob-r 15
shall be recoverable from such burghers
and shall be a charge upon their prp
erty. removable anl immovable, in the
two colonies."
The proclamation is pr.vedd by a
long jtreamble setting f-.r.h rea.vns
which in the Juig.nen: of Kitchener
justify It. Thvse, briefly ...ved are: i

those who have fallen in war. are either
prlsjnerj or have submitted to Briiish
authority and are living peaceably in
the tc-w-ns of the colonies; the burghers
still In arms have lost nearly all their
guns and are incapable of carrying on
regular war; they continue, however, to
make Isolated attacks upon outputs
and to disturb the country, thus check

esty's government Is determined to put
an end
to a state of things which is
aimlessly prolonging b'oJ.-h-d inl de
struction and inflicting ruin uon a
great maj irlty of the inhabitants."
The pr.-ambie closes with the ar

Boers still continue the struggle :hey

The burghers have already proven ifce
truth of Kruger's statement that tley
could not be conquered except at a cost
that would "stagger humanity."
Kitchener's proclamation n I the men

additional blows to those l.?t have al

civilized world. To many of the Boers
the threat will of course be an Idle one.
They would prefer banishment to sub
mission to British rule, and as th'-ir
property has been alr-aly destroyed
they can suffer no further loss !n that
ivav. Thev will, however, have to corv

thit consideration may make oma of
