means much to those who have the
courage and energy to put their con-
victions into practice. In the iirst
place exceptional care Is taken In clas-
styling the prisoners, SO that the har-
dened criminals may not further CON
taminate the morals of the first often
ders. In the matter Of employing the
convicts the prison commissioners
were hampcred by the lack OF funds to
purchase material and tools. But they
solved the problem in way that con-
tributed to the material well-being and
to the saving OF money for the state
The convicts were first utilized IN the
construction Of a prison wall They
went into the work with spirit. appar-
emily pleased at the opportunity of
learning IL trade. and being further
stimulated by the promise that faith
full service and good work would be re-
worded by diminution Of sentence.
The plan worked with great success.
Many of the men became expert work
men, and, after leaving the prison,
only one Of them, so far as learned,
violated the laws of the state The
success of this experiment led to an
other. In the construction of brick
which was built entirely BY
the convicts and under convict super
vision, and that. too, without any in
fraction of discipline or disturbance of
any kind. In the absence of work the
are required to attend the

teachers in this school are convicts, the
principal being graduate of oxford

The Truth About the Transvaal.
lN. Y. S,lll.l

W. i. SuIf.l
The monstrous character of the
Jameson raid is i'll understood in this
country. because most of our news
papers have accepted the notion circu-
lated by London journals that the
Transvaal bears to England the rela-
tions of a vassal state. That there is
no foundation for this notion. but that
on the contrary. the South African Re-
public is independent of Great Britain
is incontrovertbly established on docu-
mentary evidence in an article con-
tributed by Mr.. Karl Blind to the April
number of the North American Re-
view. Mr.. Blinds special qualification
for discussion of the subject is that
ne took conspicuous part in the
movement headed by John Bright
which led to the convention concluded
at Pretoria in 1881. and that the Dutch
and English texts of the now operative
convention of 1884 were placed in his
hands before the treaty was signed.
1t will be remembered that in 1852
England by treaty recognized the in
dependence of the South African Re
public. In the teeth of this treaty, the
Transvaal territory was forcibly an
nexed in 1877 to Englands colonial
possessions. Then followed the rebel
lion of the Beers. and the series of
British defeats which culminated in the
disaster of Majuba Hill. BY the treaty
Of peace signed in 1881 the complete
self government of the Transvaal ter
ritory, was conceded. but the name
'TranSvaal State" was substituted for
the old appellation. South African
Republic. Moreover. that treaty ex-
plcitly provided that the Transvaal
state was to be subject to the suzer-
ainty of her Majesty. her heirs. and
successors" and the British crown re-
served to itself the right to move
troops through the said state in time of
war between the suzerain power and
any foreign state or native tribe in
South Africa" A British resident was
also appointed las representative of the
suzerain," and he was to receive from
the government of the Transvaal state
such assistance and support as can by
law be given to him for the due dis
charge of his Junction.
So much for the convention of 1881.
whereby unquestionably England was
made suzerain, and the Transvaal
state vassal. This is obvious enough.
but the London newspapers either
know not. or deliberately conceal. an
other fact which they assert that the
treaty above mentioned was not SUPER
seeded. but merely revised in some par
ticulars. by the convention of 1884. The
truth Is that the treaty ~ 1881 proved
