GRE T BRITAIN has been very uDfortu
nate IN events which recently transpired
in Transvaal, Africa. II is particularly
unfortunate at this time with the Vene-
zueIan matter unsettled and facts CON-
ing to light which seriously lmpugn
Salisbury's righteousness.
DR.. Jameson who is manager OF an
English corporation interested IN mining
| IN South Africa, with body OF free
footers invaded the Dutch Te7ublic,
ostensibly for the purpose OF aiding a
colony OF English people who demanded
az enlargement OF political rights. The
Dutch republic raised an army, met the
invader, defeated them With heavy loss
aud made the leader, Dr., jameson,
prisoner. Great Britain repudiates the
action OF jameson and his followers, hut
people think it is because the expedition
was unsuccessful and this belief is sup
ported by the past encroachments OF the
English'on Dutch territory. The authori-
ties OF Cape Colony an English possession
say an attempt was made TO prevent
jameson from carrying out his 6lIbnster-
ing expedition. But it consisted only OF
a message TO desIst. and the message
never reached jameson as he had cut the
wires so that no message could reach
him. This looks as IL it were precon-
oarto6 orrap oamapt
Germany demonstrated against this
invasion and when Jameson was defeated
the emperor sent message OF congratu-
lation to the president of the Dutch re-
public. This aroused the anger of Eng
land to such ar extent that resentment
against the United States was for the
time forgotten.
A portion Of Southern Africa was
settled over 800 years ago by number
of Hollanders. They were an industrious
class of people and prospered. They had
English neighbo-s apd England eoon
after claimed the territory occupied by
the Beers or Dutch. The latter moved
on and again were dispossessed. A second
time they moved on and Their secured
recognition by England. They were
jealous OF their rights and feared further
interference on the part OF England, and
for this reason passed very strict natural
izatlon laws, designed to make it difficult
for foreigners to take part in the affairs
OF the government. An English colony
within the territory of the Transvaal did
not comply with the rigid requirements
OF the Dutch laws for citizenship, but
demanded greater political rights 1t
was to enforce these demands that Jane
son invaded the republic, though the real
object ID supposed to be cupidity aroused
by the rich mines recently discovered
there.

The Green Bay Gazette does not allow
party devotion to prevent if from prop
erly characterizing the conduct of Speak
er Reed IN appointing his committees
with view to furthering bis presidential
aspirations. 1t Is safe to say that neithsr
Mr.. Reed or any other speaker would
make the public service second to his
individual interests II papers generally
would offer criticisms ss freely as The
Gazette has.
Reec Is no worse. and hardly much bet
ter, ID using public position for his own
personal ends, than any other person
with similar ambition and like oppor-
sunlty would be. But party papers are
too apt to applaud every act, the selfish
rs we'll as the patriotic. There is advan-
tRge in beng selfish when there is im-
munity from punishment. Speaker Reed
has judged the papers of the country
correctly, rs do all politicians having a
pet ambition. 4 little independence on
the part OF newspapers could not hurt
the party they serve and wonid make it
far more honest.

THERE is considerable doubt that any
OF the proposed issue of bonds will be
taken N Europe; 1t is quite certain they
will not be taken in England. The New
York World has beer III correspondence
with the moneved men OF Europe and
their replies as to the probability of float
ing our bonds in Europe are not OF conr

LOOKS LIKE WAR.

1t looks decidedly like war between
England and Germany. England seems
to be making preparations and Emperor
William seems inclined to provoke her to
hostilities. The English press is decidedly
wsrllke in it's utterances. The tone is
entirely different from that used IN dis
cussing the situation with the United
States. TIL next few days will determine
whether it will be peace or war between
theee two great nations.

THERE is every probability that gold
will now be boarded for brief season

can be purchased only for gold, the prec-

demand for gold will still further drain

Inter Ocean 10: The last republican
state convention (Idaho) and the last
district convention Fourth Illinois)
were held yesterday. All the delegates
to the St. Louis convention have been
elected. The New York Herald (un-
friendly to Mckinley puts sixty.three
delegates in the doubtful list. and gives
Mckinley SAG, Reed 100. Morton GO, ALI
son 80, Quay So, Cullom 9, Bradley 16;
necess ary to choice, 459. AS to the q
test the Herald says: "Including the
contest over the seating OF twelve dele
gates from New York, the title to the
seats OF l16 delegates is disputed.
There are twenty contests in Alabama,
eight in Florida, ten in Georgia, two in
kentucky, two in Pennsylvania, ten IN
South Carolina, four in Tennessee, six in
Virginia, six in Arizona, and thirty In
Texas. or these sixty eight are against
Mckinley men, but in some instances
Mckinley men are fighting Mckinley
men, so that the result will not be affect
ed, no matter how the contests are de-
cided. II, however, Mckinley should
lose the entire sixty-eight votes it would
reduce his vote to i79, or nineteen more
han a majority of all the delegates in
the convention"
