Beers arg nghting for until confronted
with the vast figures that speak for the
wealth of the mines at Johannesburg
and Kimberley.
It is almost impossible to estimate
the enormous loss to the worlds COM
mercial interests should both or either
of these two vast systems of mines be
destroyed by the warning factions. In
this respect there is but little to fear
from the English troops operating in
the disturbed sections, but what meas
ures the Beers will take to prevent the
mines at johannesburg from falling in
10 the hands of the English are not so
easy TO anticipate. To the Boer gov
eminent the mines at johannesburg
mean much in the way of financial sup
port for the government, but the Boer
people see in them only bone of con-
tention that has brought war to their
homes.
The mines at Kimberley are outside of
Boer territory, but will the British be
able TO properly protect them during
the continuance of the struggle that
is being waged? The burghers of the
Free State have hardly forgiven the
English government for what they
termed steal of this valuable terri
tory and, while the two little govern
ments might be willing to protect so
valuable a property for reasons of poll
cy, it is doubtful If it will be possible to
control an excited people when once the
power of destruction lies in their hands.
They realize that their most hated. EN-

and from more than 100 shafts, OPP
Grated byalmost as many different com
panies, the precious metal is being
taken as rapidly as triple sets of hands
can take it. While the gold on the
Randi crops out at the surface, the'm ma
iority of the metal secured comes from
great depths, and several of the shafts
reach to a depth of $500 feet.
When one realizes that it would take
but few cannon shots to stop the now
unprotected pumping works that keep
these mines free from water it is not
hard to account for the anxiety of the
English people. both in South Africa
and in England who have their earn

lowing in its editorial columns:
I'VE advise that at the first act of
war on the English side the women and
children and well-disposed persons of
this town (Johannesburg) be given "a

must be shooting, then it will be on ac-
count of seditious words and deeds of

shareholders in Cape Town and Lon

Of gold. =. If il be known that
these valuable buildings and the lives
Of the wirepullers are the price of the
mines, then people will take good heed
