IRON HAND. , British ul Smuts in ibotith EXEROSITY nil vs. That's what Ciiiiipliell-Iiannerman, premier, said at the close of the Boer war. How well it has paid is shown in the overwhelming victory of Gene Africa yesterday. Twenty years afro Great Britain and the Boer Itepublic wore at war. It was a hitter war, hard fought on both sides, with England at one time close to humiliating defeat, and South Africa only beaten when overwhelming numbers and unlimited resources wore her down. England won. And there was the usual cry for revenge. But Campbell-Bannerman and the Liberal party came into power, and a bold policy of conciliation was adopted. Essentially it was a prac tical. application of the Golden Utile. Disregarding the cries of the conservatives and tooth-for-a-tootli jingoists, self-government was granted South Africa, and England co-operated in every way to put her former Boer enemies on their feet. Only about ten years later, the world war broke out. The kaiser had done everything but declare war on England and join with the Boers in 1900, the Boers were of a Teutonic strain, the memory of their recent defeat was still fresh, but not only was South Africa entirely loyal fo Great Britain, but South Africans fought for the allied cause, and two of England's most capable generals in council and action, were Smuts and Botha, who such u short time before were leading the Boer troops against her. Xow, with the currents of war reaction running strong, with na tional feeling high, on a clear-cut issue of South African indepen dence, as against dependence in a British Union, the people of South Africa vote overwhelmingly to remain in the British Empire, under the leadership of General Smuts, one of the world's most enlightened statemen, and one of the truest friends England ever had. It is truly a remarkable outcome, und a superb tribute to the wis dom of Great Britain's generous and conciliatory policy) : v Walt Mf,yorV2 SILK SHIRTS. 1 SADLY view the silken shirts I 'bought somo months ago (ah, me, tho recollection hurts!) at fifteen bucks a throw. The world was .then revolving well, the goose was hanging high - if any man had junk to sell, I was on hand to buy: The haber dasher said that day, in confidential tones, "Now, here's a shirt of blue and gray I'll sell you for two bones; of honest goods this shirt is made, of fabric good as steel; it will not warp or shrink or fade, or ravel at tho heel." "What sort of skate," I asked that guy. "do you suppose I am? I don't buy things unless they're high all cheap things are a sham. I am no piker, friend of mine, my roubles grow on trees; so show me silks that gleam and shine, and drop the wear-well wheeze." And nov my once proud spirit sags, when I look in my trunk ; the silken shirts are all in rags, the lot not worth a plunk. And times have sadly changed since then, and once blithe hearts arc sore, and kopecks, marks and iron men grow on the trees no more.. The post hole works where I'm em ployed are dropping men each day, and there may be an aching void where onco I drew my pity.1 The briny from my sad eyes squirts, t heave a sigh of woe, when I survey those silken shirts I hoiight some months ngo.
