The opinion prevails among leading Repub-

Congress will be called by the President to
meet some time in May. The demand for
just refunding act, and desire that the
contested elections in the South may be
promptly investigated are the chief reasons
assigned. Further light is thrown on the
evils resulting from assisted emigration III

carefully distinguishes between Royal Commission to
investigate the grievances Of the Bo.rs and Ccmmis
sion for settling the basis Of peace He says; "a Royal
Commission is not to be thought Of. An arbitration Is
necessary not jury which verdict Of guilty
or not guilty." He expresses the belief that verbal
discussion will lead to good result Up TO tho present
time he says. have have done nothing else but de-
fend ourselves He says also:
We began armed resistance not willingly but OF COM
pulsiOn. Should we not undertake with equal
earnest ness the work OF peace Yes, surely but
would demand Of TO cut threats and declare

they much like acknow efgmcut that have

to point. We hold to the Offer OF Republic
under British protectOlate.
When the peace negotiations opened the British
troops shall remain where they the frontier and
10 the camps within the Transvaa but re sh troops
must be brought from England until peace Is concluded
Paul Kruger deplores the deth Of Sir George Coey,
and says:
The more the Lord besses us the more We long for
peace and the distinctly declare that We Will do
all tnat is possible TO make IL easy for the honor OF En
