TUESDAY. NOVEMBER II.
TEN PAGES TODAY.
A WEAK DEFENSE.

1t we're better for Lord Salisbury II he
had ignored the charge that English lust
for gold is at the bottom OF the gigantic
movement to destroy the Transvaal Re-
public To heed it with such evident
concern is to admit that there is some
foundation for the idea, prevalent in Great
Britain that the charge is well sustained
by conyicting circumstance, If not by
actual fact.
Defiant expression has been given to
the accusation in the British parliament,
and some of the best and most reliable
publcists of London have lent to it wide
and sweeping wing.
The burden Of proof. to show that the
Transyall war was not preclpitated by
greed but that it is the splendid culmina-
ton OF a magnificent scheme to stimulate
the progress and enlightenment of human
ity, without Infringing upon the rights Of
a self-made republic and without offending
international ethics has been forced upon
the British premier who accepts the re-
sponsibility and has disposed of 1t after
a fashion well calculated to impress In
formed people with the Idea that Lord Sal
is5lry has really lodged the issue.

Englishmen. and others, have charged is
that the queens ministers have been over

That which history viii call upon Great
