1t will not be very great while now
before the discussion upon the tariff
is going to make the national senate
whole country. There is not going to
chamber the center of interest for the
be the harmony in that body that there
was in the House, for the House was
determined to be harmonious II 1t had
to knock down all who opposed the bill
as 1t came from the committee in or
der to do It. The Senate is not only d.
vided in sentiment over it, but the
Republicans have not a majority in that
body and a compromise may be all that
is possible to arrive at The debate is
going to be lively and the country will
not know any more about it than con-
gress itself does, until the final vote Is
taken. There Is no doubt Of the meas
ure passing in such shape as to afford
substantial relief to the country and
this is the main consideration.

Home production is the cry of the
country from Maine to California. This
is wise and no one is going to profit
any more by it than the farmers. 1t
will teach them to grow at home what
they too often buy abroad and it will
create a market for that which they
do not consume of their own produc-
tons, for it will increase mills and fac
tories at home for home goods. These
mills and factories will need opera
tives and these operatives will need
farm products.

THE RoERs MUST GO.

|
The history OF injustice and foul play
as exemplifed in the preying of the
strong upon the weak has its most per-
feet exemplification in that of the
Beers in South Africa. The manner in
which these sturdy colonists have been
treated by the British trading associ-
ations and companies, backed by Brit
ish arms and numbers. is enough to
cause the angel who holds the scales
of justice TO weep tears of blood. These
determined people, the Beers have been
the pioneers in all that South African
country. Quite early in this century
they settled in Cape Colony and when
a certainty of the richness of that pos
session was understood by the British
they drove out the Beers and took pos
session. From Cape Colony they mi
grated to Natal and occupied that
colony, until they were again forced to
occupied the so called Free Orange
state This in turn became too val
liable for the Beers and John Bull
crowded them out The Transvaal was
the home of the warlike Zulus, whom
all the force of the British in Africa
could not extinguish, and it was
there that would end them. To the
Transvaal they went and conquered the
Zulus and all the, wild beasts of a four
footed kind and made of that wilder
ness a home. Now that the Trans
vaal is found valuable possession the
old tactics is resOrted to and the Brit
ish are playing their old game. Grown
polite with years and feeling the YER
dict Of the civilized powers OF the earth
they are not resorting to force as
openly as of old, but are crOwding the
Beers under one pretense and another
eminent and legislate the Beers out of
their rights and their possessions.
What the end will be is not hard to
see. Great Britain, in name the most
Christian nation is indeed the most
oppressive, cruel, unjust, disregardful
of the rights of the weaker of all the
nations of the present. 1t is only a
question of might and right has no
place in her economy. Ireland and In
dia and the American colonies have
all felt her iron hand and the Beers
are feeling it now. Unless Germany
comes in to cut off her ex-
pectations in that southland it will on
ly be a few more years and the Beers
with all their patriotism, industry, hon
esty and splendid national qualities
will be driven into the last ditch.
That there will be blood spilled in the
attempt and carrying out of this plan
is to be expected, but it takes more
than the hearts blood of a simple in
nocent people to stop Britain in any
matter in which her love of conquest
and her greed of gold are concerned.

THURSDAY.......OC OCTOBER z, 1897.
Major GINTER,s WILL.

The last will and testament of Major
Lewis Ginter, which was made public
yesterday, is characteristic of the man.
1t shows his devotion TO kindred and
friends, his unquenchable public spirit
and his open-handed charity. In short,
he makes just such disposition of his pro-
perty as was expected of him.
All of his great enterprises are left
in good hands. and are now to be con-
trolled by persons of ample means, who
thoroughly understand his wishes and
who. we cannot but believe. will take
delight in carrying them out as far as
possible.
His death is an irreparable loss to us,
but in his will he meant to soften the
blow as far as he could. AL who are
we'll informed as TO Major enters va
rious enterprises will perceive in the
division that he has made of the bulk
of his estate. desire not only to
crafty his love for his kindred, but a
desire to advance the welfare of our
city. at the same time.
Never before have there been such
magnificent public requests here. Nu-
merous public institutions and charities
are remembered by him. as are, also,
many old employees and personal
friends. But he had done a vast deal
of giving in his lifetime. and the mea-
sure of his goodness and usefulness to
Richmond and Virginia cannot be fully
understood and appreciated unless we
add to his requests the gifts-perhaps
We might say the larger gifts-that he
made out of hand. And we must re-
member. too. that much OF what he did
nominally for the improvement of his
own property was nothing more nor
less than a great, good, big-hearted gift
for the pleasure OF the people.
During his long Illness. whilst his
naras was upon every tongue, we heard
no word in detraction or dispraise of
him. and row that he is in his tomb In
Hollywood. and tie contents Of his will
are known, the general judgment is ex-
allied and confirmed.
May we not only profit directly by his
generosity; but may his example be fol-
lowed by many other men Of fortune.
Few or none OF our citizens will be able
TO initiate him in the magnitude of his
gifts for the public benefit, but all may
initiate his spirit.
