AMONG the absurdities of taxation is
the attempt TO tux such things as dia-
monds. Not that there is any public
merit in the acquisition or possession of
diamonds, but because it is about as pos
sible to collect tax on them as it is to
chain sunbeam; and not only that, but
the imposition ofa duty on such articles
leaves dealer no alternative but to clo c
bis business or swindle the revenue.
The diamond tax is instanced as SAM
pie of many others. Laws can be so
framed and SO applied that by the rule
OF three man can be shown to be dis
honestly carrying on his business. al.
though no evidence receivable in court
is at hand TO secure his arrest. A few
months since New York sugar re.
finery closed its establishment, emphati
cally stating it was impossible to exist
honestly under the law. Some idea oil
the extent Of the smuggling of small and
valuable articles may be gained bv a few
trips across the Atlantic. An Italian
padrone arrives at New York with n fat
little beggar boy. From toe TO armpii
that little beggar boy is wound round
with lace under his ragged jacket, the
profit on which alone pays the passage
of the couple and Il monkey thrown in.

England and the ROers.

About the beginning ofthe seventeenth
century settlement of Dutch was made
at the Cape of Good Hope in Africa. At
that time Holland was one of the first
maritime powers of the world, if not the
first, Van Tromp with broom at his
mast head had swept the seas, and the
Dutch subject felt at liberty to settle
wheresoever it suited his fancy, relying
on the protection of his home govern
ment. But thepower ofthe Dutch in time
began to wane, and The settlement at
Cape Town was gradually forgotten The
Beers, whose name is derived from the
word signifying farmer in their language
thus became free and administered their
own affairs.
In 1914, by some sort of diplomacy pc
culiar to England, Cape Town and the
country Immediately adjacent became
an English colony. This was a proceeding
so offensive TO the Beers that they
abandoned their settlement and moved
north, beyond the river Vaal, into what
was unoccupied territory. Here they
cultivated the land and made consider
able headway in manufactures and COM
merce.
Since 1888 their relations have not
been of a peaceful character. England
has followed up this Dutch colony and
insisted upon their dependence. As early
as lS42 the English, under Sir ii. q.
Smith, invaded their territory, and sew
eral engagements were fought, the result
being generally disastrous TO the in
vaders. Some $4,000 of the Beers were
taken under British domion in lS4S by
proclamation, contiscating that part Of
the country in which they lived. The
present purpose of England is no doubt
to embrace the remainder of them by
the same tactics as in lS4S.
In 1854 the independence ofthe Orange
Free State was recognized, and the
Beers are naturally unable to understand
why the virgin soul on which they have
settled is not recognized by England as
free also Their ofiense seems to be that
the Beers have undertaken to build a
railway easterly from their settlement to
Deloga Bay on the east coast of South
Africa, and that the English view this
with fear for their own commercial su-
premacy in the Cape Town colony. 1t is, in
fine, for about the same reason that she
makes war upon them as she did upon
the colonies Of this country at the time
ofthe revolution.
Great Britain stands in this position.
The quarrel is confessedly of her own
making, and the only castis belli on the
part of the Beers is that they are pursl-
ing their own business in way which
may result in damage TO the local tar
i'll law of the Cape Town colony. This
war descends TO Mr.. Gladstone as one of
the legacies of the impertinent admin.
istration of Beaconsfield. The trouble
with Gladstone is that he has not the
moral courage to renounce this legacy;
and England should remember that she
is not making war upon the savage tribes
of Africa, but on people of European
descent and civilized ways and progress
sive habits. Englishmen are now will
ing to admit the great blunder of at
tempting to coerce our colonies in l776,
and they should reflect that they have no
more moral warrant for the subjugation
OF the Beers who have shown themselves
to be brave and liberty-loving people.

A Notable Declaration.

the Dutch Beers Tor farmers) of South
Africa is remarkable for its eloquence, its
pathos, its religious fervor, and its bitter
Indictment of the British rulers for the
wrongs and outrages suffered at theii
hands. The Declaration of Independ.
ence is too lengthy for publication in oul
columns, but the following extract from
the document, being the Beers cath Of
allegiance TO each other, gives an idea
of the spirit and the temper of the
signers'
OATH OF ALLEGIANCE.
In the presence of Almighty God, the
searcher of hearts, and praying for His
gracious assistance and mercy, we
burghcrs of the South African republic
have solemnly agreed, for us and for oul
children, to unite in . holy covenant
which we confirm in solemn oath. II
is now forty years ago since our fathers
left the Cape Colony to become free
and independent people. These forty
years were forty years Of sorrow and
suffering. We have founded Natal, the
Orange Free State, and the South Afri.
can republic, and three times has the
| British government trampled on oui
| liberty. And our flag baptized with the
blood and tears of our fathers, has been
pulled down. As by thief in the night
has our free republic been stolen from
us. We cannot suffer this, and we may
not. 1t is the will of God that the unity
of our fathers and our love to our chill.
dren should oblige us to deliver unto oHi
children unblemished the heritage OF
our fathers. 1t is for this reason that We
here unite and give each other the hand
as men and brethren, so!emnly promis
| ing to be faithful to our country and peo.
Pile, and, looking unto God, to work to-
gether unto death for the restoration Of
the liberty of our republic. So truly
help us, God Almighty.

many cases a single dose has been sufficient for

tnuei in smaller doses for week or two AFTER

The Weather.

The Burlington Ha'oheye says that it
is easy enough to predict the weather if
you only follow the right rules. Here
are some of them: IAN intensely blue
sky indicates temporary absence of
clouds. Under other circumstances,
again, an intensely blue sky indicates a
tornado When thej sun rises behind a
bank of clouds, and the clouds hang
low all around the horizon and all over
the sky, and the air fells damp, and
there is fine drzzing mist blowing,
the indications are there will be a rain
somewhere in the United States or
Canada. When it begins to thunder
look out for lightning. TO see the head
of the family feeling in his right hand
pocket, then in the left hand pocket,
then in,all his vest.pockets,then in his hip
pocket, then in his coat pockets, and then
look at his ceiling,indicates "no change" "
If he suddenly stops whstling at the
ceiling and expands his face into broad
grimace of delieht,t means 'unexpected
change" If the corn husks are very
thick, the winter will be colder than the
summer, If the corn husks are very
thin, the summer will be warmer than
the winter, If the corn husks are neither
too thin nor too thick, the summer will
be warm and the winter will be cold. If
the weather prophet predicts rainy
season and it happens to rain away out
in Calaveras county, and is dry as Il
bone all over the rest of America, this
rain must be set down to the credit of
the weather breeder and all the dry time
counts for nothing"

POeticaI.
WHEN EARTH WAS yOuYG."

In days Of old when earth was young,
When heroes lived and poets sung,
spirit dwelt In every tree,
And voices OF deep mystery
Spoke in the murlmur Of the sea,
In days OF old, when earth was young.
But now the earth is growing old,
Tie lutte Is mute, and faith is cold;
he spirit Of the tree Is fed,
And voices, once TO music wed,
Are hushed for fancy's self is dead.
Now that the eartn has grown so old
The child's fresh faith pays homage free
In all to some divinity;
But shrlnes are cold, and altars bare,
When hearts are warped with age and care
And doubling spirits VIII not dare
To trust In ought they cannot see.
