see that each one has the right to labor

two races have never assimilated. Lit
tie BY little the British have intrudea
mon the Beers. In 1881 the latter
sounded the call to arms and in brie1
war inflicted such heavy loss on the
British that the latter were glad 10
abandon most OF their claims.
Latterly, the British have entered
upon q peace conquest ofthc Transvaal.
A great many miners and settlers have
emigrated to the republic, so many, IN
fact that they nearly equal the Beers IN
number. These British colonists, be-
ing taxed, demanded the right OF SUI
frage. The Beers, for obvious rea-
sons, refused. AT this juncture, last
week, an armed British force num-
bering some 800, commanded by DR..
Jameson, marched to the Transvaal
from Cape Colony to help their breth-
rem. These tilibusters were met BY a
large force Of Beers, who are redoubt-
able fighters, and after bloody battle,
the entire British column was either
killed or captured.
The British government disavowed
the action Of the invaders, but that did
not tend to lessen the tension, as it
was regarded as insincere. The Beers
besought aid from the German EN-
peror who responded by notifying
Great Britain that it must keep its
hands off the Transvaal. Further, he
sent a message to the president OF the
Beers, congmtulating him on the de-
feat of the invaders.
These acts, added to the smart OF
defeat, have stirred the sluggish Eng
lishmen deeply. They resent the in
reference of Germany and are willing
to accept it as challenge to war.
Hatred of England is as pronounced
in Germany now as it is in France.
These countries would not shrink from
measuring strength with the mistress
OF the seas.
A great European war may not fol-
low just yet, but it is plain that the
temper Of the great powers is prepar-
ing for it.
These are interesting times.

A Martial Prospect.

With wars and rumors Of wars in
every quarter OF the globe, the time
when swords are to be turned into
ploughshares and spears into pruning
hooks doesn't seem to be exactly at
hand.
Italy is waging a war of invasion
against the Abysinnians with heavy
loss to herself and prospect Of total
humiliation to the Abysinnians.
Spain is vainly trying to repress the
rebellion in Cuba, which from cloud
no bigger than mans hand,' has
steadily spread until it involves near
" the whole island. The rebels, though
vastly inferior in numbers to the
Spaniards, who have over 100000
troops on the island, seem to be press
ing their foe backward toward Ha-
vana, near which city they have now
approached. Their success in the re-
bellion now seems assured.
In Armenia the situation is some-
what more quiet, but whether there
are fewer massacrcs or whether those
that take place are not so fully report
ed, owing to other important happen
ings is question.
The Russian bear, from his frozen
den in Siberia, is growing at the
British lion in India and little by lit
tie stretching his claws across the Chi
nese territory that separates them, pre-
paratory to the final struggle for the
supremacy Of Asia.
Japan has just conquered the island
OF Formosa after valiant campaign
against the celebrated Black Flags and
is beginning to appreciate the import
ance to which her success in the Chi
nese war raised her. She is adding to
the size and efficiency Of her army and

Gov. Morton of New York has an
nOunced himself as an active candidate
for the Republican presidential nomi-
nation. 1t is said that the New York
bosses have pledged him Il solid dele
cation from that state that will vote
for him from start to finish. II is not
probable that he will secure many del
egates from other states. Though
Gov. Morton is d native of Vermont,
we do not hesitate to say that we re-
gard MIN as a weak man to head the
national ticket. He is too old. He
has never made positive record.
Though successful in business and
very wealthy, he does not represent
the Republicanism Of theunion. He
has been and is the tool of bosses and
his success in politics has been the re-
suit Of their maneuvering and not Of
his own achievement. His admins
tration would be their administration.
We do not love him for the friends
he has made. He may be all right as
the Republican iigurehead in New
York, but as a presidential candidate
he would be II. g. which, being trans
lated, means no good. No Morton in

Ministers Phelps or Lincoln. Two o.
the members are Democrats, two Re
publicans and one Of no pronounced
politics. The commission has elected
Judge Brewer as chairman and will
begin its Investigations at once. The
commission will probably sit at Wash
ington and not visit Venezuela, de-
pending on documents for proof. Il
is not unlikely that Great Britain will
recognize the commission and present
its own case to it. There are strong
indications of breakdown by the
British even thus early.
The usually steady-going and relia-
BILE Middlebury Register is running
wild Just now, with no thought OF
possible collision or derailment. The
engineer has unscrewed the governor,
seated a niger on the safety valve
and is "firing her" for all she is worth.
OF course editors occasionally run
out of editorial timber, after they
have rung the changes on the prohib-
tory law and the next governorship
until the pump is dry, but even under
such severe provocation as this, it
would have been better for Editor
Thorp to run in some boiler-plate edi-
torials or even to skip an issue than
to assert and stick to it--that Vcr-
mont is poorly represented in the ma
tional Senate by her senior senator,
the honored Morrill,. The Register
claims that Mr.. Morrill, has been in
by age and infirmitics for
several years and is, in effect, a dis
grace to the state. The contemporary
urges that his reelection for another
term should not be considered. Now
whatever may happen between now
and March A, 1897, it is a task that
even angels would shrink from to I'M
dertake to convince Vermont Repub-
licans that Senator Morrill, is not still,
as he has been for many years, an
honor and credit to the state. Apart
from the positive statements Of his ac-
luaintanccs, a perusal Of his late
speeches and interviews will show that
he is still vigorous in mind. His Sc
lection DIS chairman OF the important
finance committee indicates that his
associates do not regard him as a
iotard. The Registers complaint
nay be the result of an insatiate itch
ng for Senator Morrill's shoes on the
part OF someone in its immediate To-
,ality, or it may be the outcrop OF a
grudge, rit may be
simply bad blunder due to the rather
'canty supply Of editorial topics now
n sight. We are inclined, in view Of
he Registers general reliability, to
believe it is the latter and so pass 1t
,ver with this brief notice.
