whether 1t is true or not that the
Transvaal authorities have documen-
tary proof that the Jameson raid was
part OF movement to annex that re-
public to the British South African do
main, there can be little doubt that an
nexatlon was the ultimate object of the
movement. In fact annexation has
long been in the British mind. Only
the opportunity has been awaited.
Great Britain knows how to wait and
how to bring about opportunities. II
the Beers stood alone, without friends

that It is all a trick to save Shea and

Those Republican senator's who insist
that the house bill should be passed
without amendment are right. That
is the expedient course to pursue The
country needs revenue. and this is u
revenue bill.
OF course senators can point to in
dustries that are languIshing for want
OF protection. But the house was not
ignorant OF the situation. and 1t repre-
sents the same constituency that the
senate represents.
The house went in for revenue bill
that would have some chance to get
through the white house. It left pro-
tectlve measure for a more opportune
time. when both branches of Congress
and the President shall be Republican.
All that could be accomplished by
amendments distinctly In the interest
Of protection would be to make sure
TINT the bill would run against veto.
This the Republicans could not over
come. There is no use In turning on
the stage thunder merely to hear 1t

wHRELINo, JANUARY 10, 1883.



Nobody in England doubts that the
German emperor has deliberately chai-
ionged that great country. Nobody
doubts that he has resolved to fight IL
England moves another step in South
Africa. The haste in which he put
himself in communication with the
Transvaai president makes Il appear
that the emperor had decided upon a
general line OF policy before the out
break In South Africa. The Jameson
mo cement merely gave him the open
ing for which he was prepared.
Englands naval equipment is super
Tor TO Gernanyis. but not to all the
naval force that would be arrayed
against her. England has no ally and
can have none. Germany will be in
effect part OF great movement that
win be oil Europe against England.
The English would make game fight.
but the odds would be too great for
them. They would be lucky to come
out OF such a conflict with their home
territory intact.
1t has been suggested that II England
were engaged in such war the United
States would strike for Canada. The
United States does not contemplate the
conquest OF Canada, We would strike
Canada only in the event of being COM
PEELED to go to war with England. In
that event we would invade Canada be-
cause there we could hit the enemy
quickly and hard. AS for annexation
by force. that is not desired by the peo-
pie OF this country. But In general
breakup OF the British empire Canada
might set up business for itself.
Z. Nobody can predict what Is going to
happen in Europe. The long-looked-
for war may be postponed indefinitely
or che FIRE may blaze out in a day. The
situation is critical enough TO be full
OF interest for nobody more than for
the brave English. whom to-day the
world seems to have at bay.

THE Intelligencer has at no time
thought It probable that the cubans
had reached point where they thought
II prudent to try to take Havana, for 1t
does not seem probable that without q
navy they could hold that city. Their
movements indicated rather that they
were determined to cut on the Spanish
revenues by destroying the cane crop.
This they have done and are doing, and
Il ia one OF the hardest blows they can
strike Spain.
Z II is not dramatic, as the taking the
capital city would be, but 1t Is practice
nj and Intensely effective. They have
carried the torch near Havana to show
that they are strong enough to enforce
their prohlbitory decree everywhere
and determined to do It. 1t is terrible
work. but not more terrible, certainly.
than killing men.
The spaniards make the point that
the principal cities and towns have not
fallen into the hands Of the patriots.
This does not bother the Cuban lead
ers and is no great help TO the Span
iarIs. Cities and towns without sup
plies, the condition TO which many of
them have been reduced by the Cuban
movements, are neither very desirable
ns places Of residence nor very helpful
70 the army that holds them. Away
from the coast there Is probably not n
town that the insurgents could not take
and probably hold, but they have better
use for their men than to use them up
In garrison duty.
The point for US Americans Is that
che cubans have gone far enough to
show themselves worthy to be reeog-
nIzcd as belIlgorents. and this recoBnI-
ton we should give them without fur
ther delay. 1t will be fair reflection
OF public opinion in this country and IT
win be helpful to the brave men who
are fighting for their country.

The People Would Take Bonds Offered
Free OF Complications and Expense.
To the Editor OF the Intelllgencer.
slR.-DIscussio upon therecent gov
eminent loan has the effect not only to
inform the people OF the nations meth
DDS of borrowing money, but OF the ne
cessItIes ut times which compel gov
ornments to test their credit In this d.
rectlon. Without considering the caus-
es or requirements Of the present loan,
and wIthal with proper Difference, per-
nit me to ask why have the executive OF
flcers, who, under the act OF Congress
are authorized to borrow money, and
whohaye offered this loan to the people,
why / repeat, Is this offer 30 burthened
and hedged with barriers as to make Il
almost impractIcable? The public Is
offered a gold, thirty-year bond ut
per cent, but in order to purchase this
bond the investor must attend govern
ment auction and pay premium OF
perhaps Is per cent In gold to obtain a
hearing. This in itself will keep out all
moderate investors whose aggregate
would be large In numbers and amount.
II is estimated BY experts In finance
that there are 100000. 900 OF gold coin
ShAhGA ShNS~s.'
amount held by the banks can be APP
proxImated. which II deducted, still ex-
hibits larger amount held by indivld-
uals than is called for in the loan.
Had the government offered the peo-
pie a 3 per cent interest bond at par.
payable and to be paid for in gold and
free OF tax, and as easily obtainable
through the banks or postoftlces of the
country, as domestic purchases are
made, the success OF this loan at home
would be established, Our opinion Is
that the Individual subscription OF this
country would reach $l0O,0OOOOO.
During the war government bonds
could be bought Us readily from the
banks as n barrel OF flour can be had OF
q grocer, and in that day OF the tribula-
ton OF war, as now OF financial dis
quiet, the bonds were then and now
would be gladly taken by the people. II
presented in a plain, uncompltcated
and inexpensive manner. Dlssemina-
ton OF these bonds at home would
strengthen the government, making
each holder directly interested in the
perpetuIty OF her institutions and save
the humiliation OF seeking assistance
from unfriendly sources. The French
debt at the termination OF a most dlsas-
trous war was paid by tho peasantry of
France through popular loan, free
from expense and without the aid OF
foreign gold. ID.
