They soon had firm foot hold a far o the native were cou cerned, but the colony partook oftbe fortune of the Kuropeaa Nation. In 17'.i the liriti-h took possesion of the territory and held it seven year at the end of which time the old government waa restored by a treaty between home rover omenta. But the Indepe ndeoce of the 1 Hitch colo nial was abort lived, for the Kogliah m looti aifain obtained control. The butch or Boer a tbey are called did not Uke kindly to F.ugiiah rule, but being too weak for battle, they moved northward to new territory Their new home i now known on the map a Orange Free State. Hre all alliifiaoce to Holland seem to have been loxt and the BMr were recognized a independent. The Kng linh aifain crowded when the Boer in 18.15 moved north of the Vaal river a atream of considerable sue flowing eaat into the Indian Ocean. Here they took up their pastoral life and havine no aeaoort they had little or no intercourse with ouit lander, foreigner. They soon oc cupied a territory embracing 114,000 toll'J.INNI atiuare miles, about the size of Oregon and one third of Wah ington. There was intense hatred oi the Kngliah tho the latter recognized their independence in 1H52. The road lo the coat wa thru Natal which F.ngliah culocy leviej a duty on good carried thru their territory. A treaty with the Portuguese who held Delagoa By directly eaat ol the South African Itepublic, allowed merchandiae to paa duty free. The lioer were active in improving the road to the Portuguese port and were not politic in their treatment of a na tive tribe. Indeed they had wrealled the whole country from nativea a hundred limts more numerous than themselves, and held great contempt. the blacks i this suzerainty that the British quote for authority lo interfering. They demand that the Boer relax their franchise law, equalise taxea and relinquish their monopoly oo dyna mite. Thia O.KU Paul refuaea, bat rather make the naturalization law more rigid. The Kngliah aked for a commission to adjust differences. Tbi I in the nature of a court of ar bitration only the member are to be Kigliahmen and Bia-r. Pre. Km ger refuaea to submit his contention to such torn in ini a. In the mean time both parties are preparing tor war, and hoatilitiea may break out any d iy. The result can be ftre-iid. En land will win, but it will be at considerable coat. The lioer are tine soldiers, and well armed. But it the old story of tha KiocKerbocker of New Auu-terdam. Mii:itiF".H walk. S1TI0N-S riJAXCHA. Mulluoiuah county always looked cut for the main chance. It aaeea nient wa low, recognized so by the other counties of the state. To equa lize the other counties pi aoe I a low valuation ou property. Multnomah went lower. True the allowing waa bad when comparison with other Mtatea were made, Washington for inalauce. The rate of levy wa ah normally high which kept capital away that did not understand the game. A state Equalization Board wa created. Multnomah' aaaeea- luent wa raled ev-ry year but the board, ao the court held, could not raise the aeement of the whole state, hence the work of the board for purponc of cotiiarion and advertising abroad wa without value. Multnomah raged, until the lawrrea ting the board wa repeated. Now Multnomah county is out doing her self. There w ill be a lower aases ment than everbefore and the count) will have a less state tax to pay. The deficiency will be made up by the other counties. But Multnomah find herself In a hole, the exist cue of which wa not noticed. During the time when there was an equali zation board the tax law was clanged ao that the city sr-aesament wa abo lished, and all raven m ftr the city government must be raiaed on the property as valued by the county asseesor. The maximum for the city taxes Is fixed by law at a mill rate and when there I a low valua tion the revenue for the expense of the city government 1 shy.

' The native on all sides pooled is sues and started a war of extermina lion. To these savage all white men were alike and the Kngliah colony ol Cape Town was involved. The Kog liahmen recognizing that the Boers were the chief offender, deposed the Boer administration and in 1877 an nexed the territory to the other South African colonies. This dil not long exist for in 1380 the Boer revolted, bcaelged the weak garrisons which soon capitulated The victors rapidly marched Into Natal and took up a strong position where they awaited the coming of the available English force. Th Kngliah were defeated lu the battle. Several other skirmishes ended favor ably to the Dutch when Gladstone then at the head of the English tuin isiry made ?ace notwithstanding there wa a large army on it way to the scene of trouble. The treaty recognized the Indcpen deuce of the South African Itepublic or Trans-Vaal, for it I known by '. ith names, In local government tint exacted the right to advise in 'tatters of foreign treaties and es peciHily in intercourse with nativ irilies. In the meantime, 18f diamond were discovered in Trans-Vaal, and later gold. The Boer are not min ers, but that mattered not for miners were numerou enough a soon a i wa known that gold exist!. Th gold mine are accounted to be the richest ',u the world. Kiiglishmen emigrated there by thousand, and not a few American are there, Johannesburg I the seat of this for eign population ami wealth. Th IVa'rs remembering their experience in Cape Town and the Orange Free Stale have been slow to admit ouit lander to participate in the govern ment. The law required a continu ou residence of five year before the foreign horn could acquire the right to vote. nut a greater grievnnce I the ex hortiilHiit miner tax levied and col lifted. The Boers do not mine, or If they do, they mine tree. Almost or quite all the revenue for Ihe support of the government is derived from the mining tax and the ouitlanders pay it. The little republic that in IH78 could not pay running expense is now rolling In wealth, yet the na tive take their ease on horse back or hunt Ihe wild game. They are dead hot with a Winchester. The for eign s)pulation chafe under thi lle of nfTiiir, but Oom Paul, a the president I known hold a firm rein and will not admit them to the fran cliisc, well knowing that in time he and hi country men would be out voted and the power hi Boers have enjoyed would be wrested from them About two year ago one Dr. Jime sou led a force of irregular troops on a raid against the Boers iutending to force concesion favorable to the outsider.

It was char ged that England had a hand in the raid, but the home government disa vowed the act, and it in now general iy aumiiiru tnai Jameson raided on hi o n account. The failure of thi raid ha not quieted the English ici dent of Trans- Vaal. They complain to their home government of the B xr and charge that the lime when they may obtain the right of fran chise I too long, that taxes for min ing ls.y high and that the Boer monopoly in dynamite powder I uo-iu-t.
