BATTLE OF MODDEIi EfVEIi.
The aggressive force and fighting
power of General Methuen's army
must have been frightfully impaired
by the ordeals it has endured, says
the Spokesman-Review. This force
is advancing to the relief of Kimber
ly, which is under siege by the Doers
It has fought three fierce engage
ments, all ot which have been pro
claimed as victorious. But the
readiness with which the Boers' army
has rallied after each battle first
after that of Belmont, and again
after that of Gras Pan fills London
with dread misgivings.
After retiring from the battle of
Gras Pan, ibe Boers took up a strong
position to the north, nt the point
where the railroad from Gape Town
to Kimherly crosses the Moddcr
river. There the last battle was
fought, and General Methuen reports
that "It was one of the hardest and
most trying fights in the annals of
the British army." These are wordy
of terrible significance.
Id all this fighting the British have
fought at disadvantage. The' have
found the Boera strongly entrenched
on heights of great natural advantage,
and there is grave reason to fear that
in each engagement the British losses
Lave been much heavier than those
of the Boers.
The situation is therefore critical.
It looks as if the Boer forces have
been handled with remarkable stra
tegical ability. Apparently a suffi
cient force has been left at Kimberly
to prevent the British garrison there
from making a sortie to the support
of the advancing relief column; and
apparently the force sent out to me,et
the advancing British' column has
been handled with a view to inflict
ing severe losses on Gen. Mcthune'a
forces, while avoiding severe looses
itself, the plan being .to uht from
strong positions, ani retire before
the British could deliver compen
sating losses.
Ex-President Cleveland has joined
the ranks of the expansionists. It
will soon be hard to point out any
man in the Democracy sticking to
the contractionist side who lias had
auy standing in the party except the
few Wreckers who belong to the
Bryan! te contingent. "Anti-imperial-i9m"
promises, by the time the next
election takes place, to be as dead
as that other Democratic issue of
slavery. Some Democrats saw the
drift against slavery before it at
tained formidable proportions, and
left their party. There wore many
Bourbons like Bryan, however,
among tbo Democrats of half a
century ago, who clung to slavery to
the. end, and wept down in the
general wreck which overwhelmed
that institution. The flag. fur lers will
be ttfB at badly as were the
slavcryitcs, and fowcr tears will be
shed for thorn than were dropped for
their progenitors.
Aguinaldo is pretty hard pressed
these days. Ho may elude the
troops for a few weeks longer. Pos
sibly he may escape from the island
altogether, and go to Asia or Europe.
The end in any case, however, will
bo the same, Most of his nrmy will
'J5 captured, and the test of It will be
so thoroughly disporscd that It will
never got together again. Wn P're
sume the government at Washington
would not make any especial efforts
to head Aguinaldo off if ho were
trying to escape to the outside world.
The prime object is the capture of
his arm, and this can not be de
layed much longer. It is pretty
clear, in any event, that the Tagal
rebellion is on its last legs, despite
the aid it got and expected still to
get from the great party whose
victory in the recent elections all
the Filipino rebels praj'ed for.
