When the Dutch settled at the
Cape Of Good Hope III 1861 Man
haitian Island was still in Dutch
possession, though before the cen
fury was ont the English were
masters i'll New York 1t was not
until 1914 that Holland formally
coded Cape Colony TO England.
Population at the Cape previous to
the cession was composed Of Dutch,
French Huguenots and English,
and the friction between Dutch and
English had long been trouble
some. But eventually the English
title 10 Cape Colony was as good as
10 its New York colony. Boer dis
content with British rule became
acute in 1884 when slavery at the
Cape was abolished. That led to
the first Boer migration. Those
who base the problem in South
Africa on abstract principles Of
human freedom will observe that
the Bocrs were violently opposed
TO the emancipation of their black
slaves, with compensation, and
that large number went north to
set up for themselves in territory
where they forcibly dispossessed
the native inhabitants. They SET
tied Natal, left it on account OF
British claims Of sovereignty, aud
founded in succession the Orange
Free State and the Transvaal Re-
public. The British claims fol.
lowed them aud have seldom been
disputed by absolute official action
II was with the assistance Of Brit
ish arms that the Bocrs pushed
back the savages and kept them in

British when full annexation was

much in 1881 and 1884. but no,

the Gladstone government admitted

hand in its establishment.
In the third place, We will lock into
the history of
THE FARMERS ALLIANCE AND THE JUTE
TRUST.
MOI very many years ago you have
not forgotten it) there appeared in one
or n Northeastern States of our Union
an enormous monster known by those
who were at that time suffering with
what was called 1.-THE Alliance crRz J"
as the Jute Begging Trust. This huge
animal without soul or conscience, had
stretched out his enormou ~tentacles
and taken TO himself the large jute bag
ging mills Of this country, and had also
managed to rake into his possess on or
control the raw jute crop of the world.
Soon the price Of jute bagging was
u up 100 per cent then higher and
higher it went until the Alliance as q
mighty glantarose and with one mighty
effort demolished the trust and again
Jute bagging sold at or below the prices
which prevailed before the advent of
this trust. You are all so familiar with
this comparatively recent achievement
that the particulars need not be cited.
You know what a victory this was for
the farmers. You know how every
one sang the praises Of the Alliance.
And you are we'll aware that nothing
but organic alton of farmers against
this trust would haversaved them from
whatever tax the giant octopus might
have seen f5 to impose upon them.

tion. Seeing what we have done au0
what there is yet for US to do, let US
take fresh courage and once more join
together for the promotion of our own
and our country's best interests.
Gathering inspiration from the sue
cessss of the past and wisdom from the
mistakes Of the past, let us unite and
press forward determined to live up to
the great principles set forth in our

commons tended to increase the un-
easiness. When asked for the latest
news from the front he responded With
a quotation from Lord Wolseley to the
effect that Gen. Yule, commanding the
force in the Dundee-G Glencoe district,
had found Boer force greatly superior
in numbers advancing on his position
and had thought fit to leave Dundee
and fall back on Glencoe Junction.
The curtness of this pronouncement
was suspicious, but the explanation
was made at late hour that it was due
to the ambiguous terms of the dispatch
rather than to any positive information
of any decided reverse.
1t was evident that Glencoe had been
menaced by third body of Boer troops
under Joubert, after two columns had
been defeated, and that the war Office
was anxious and was holding back
news which would be misunderstood
and might cause needless alarm.

I asc OF Miss schotfeld.

Des Moires, Oct. 24.-Dr. Schofield
and Cylde Schofeld father aud broth
er of Mabel schofield, who is supposed
TO have been murdered and thrown
into the Des Moines river, or else COM
mitted suicide. and whose body was
found floating ON the rivers surface
Sunday afternoon, arrived in Des
Moines last evening via the S:l5 Great
Western train from Macksburg, the
family home. They repaired immedi-
ately to McDermott's morgue to view
the remains of the dead girl. The
mother was overcome with grief and
was not able to come to Des Moines.
DIR. Schoiield and his son are in favor
of holding a post mortem examination.
The impression is gaining ground
that the girl threw herself into the
river with suicidal intent.
