One week $ jjj One month U One year 6 00 3JONDAY - OCTOBER S3, 1899 XOERS, BRITISH AND LIBERTY "When the Dutch settled at the Cape of Good Hope in 1C52 Manhat tan Island was still in Dutch posses sion, though before the century was out the English were masters in New York. It was not until 1S14 that Holland formally ceded Cape Colony to England. Population at the Cape previous to the cession was composed of Dutch, French Huguenots and English, and the friction between Dutch and English had long been troublesome. But eventually the English title to Cape Colony was as good as to its New York colony, Boer discontent with British rule became acute in 1834 when slavery at the Cape was abolished. That led to the first Boer migration. Those who base the problem in South Africa on abstract principles of human freedom will observe that the Boers were violently opposed to the emancipation of their black slaves, with compensation, and that a large number went north to set up for themselves in territory where they forcibly dispossessed the native in habitants. They settled Natal, left it on account of British claims of sovereignty, and founded in suc cession the Orange Free State and the Transvaal Republic. The Brit ish claims followed them and have seldom been disputed by absolute official action. It was with the assistance of Brit ish arms that the Boers pushed back the savages and kept them in sub jection, but Boers fought the British when full annexation was attempted. Mr. Gladstone yielded much in 1881 and 1884, but not all. By the con vention of 1881 the Gladstone gov ernmcnt admitted the existence of the Transvaal Republic, subject to British suzerainty. It wps stipulated that the British crown should ap point a British resident, with veto power over the internal policy toward the Kaffirs; that the British govern ment should control and conduct the entire Transvaal foreign policy, and reserve the right to move troops over Transvaal territory in time of war. The Boers showed so hostile a spirit over these restrictions that in 1884 Gladstone gave way in everything except this one clause: "The South African Republic will conclude no ireaty or engagement with any state or nation other than the Orange Free State, nor wit i any tribe to the eastward or westward of the republic, until the same has been approved by her Majesty the Queen." The claim of suzerainty was retained to this extent, by no means incon siderable. The Boers secretly planned to get a seaport of their own and to secure a majority of the whito inhab Hants in South Africa for Boer sov ereignty and confederation. History gives no support to the theory that the Boers, in any special or general sense, aro tho champions of freedom. They resisted the aboli tion of slavery and have denied to immigrants tho privileges extended in other republics. It is said that tho Outlanders now constitute n majority ot tho Transvaal popula tion, own half tho land, nine-tenths of the property and pay nine-tenths of the taxes. They arc practically disfranchised, with every prospect that should their numbers increase the Boers now in power would fortify their rule by devising now bariicrs to popular suffrage. A Boer votes at sixteen, while the son of an Out lander is beset with impediments that place the ballot almost beyond his reach. "What remains of the suzerainty after Gladstone's yielding policy is now repudiated by the Boers. They hope for a general rising in the British colonics in South Africa and for confederated Boer sovereignty in that end of the conti nent. The imagined Boer contest for human liberty vanishes when the facts arc impartially examined in the light of history. Globe-Democrat.

Va., struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to bruise it eeverely. It became very much swollen and pained him so badly that he could not walk without the aid of crutches. He was treated by physicians, aleo used several kinds of liniment end two and a half gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave any relief until ho began using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This brought almost a complete cure in a week's time and lie believes that had he not used this remedy hie leg would have had to ba amputated. Pain Balm is tin equaled for sprainp, bruises and rheu matism. For sale by Blakeley & Hough ton Druggists. Caili tn Your cncck.
