South African tribes, yelled in ignorance
and error, is afforded by Cecil Rhodes,
the wickedly misrepresented and scan
dalously illuminated philanthropist,
who bids defiance to all prosecution,
keeps up his spirits, and is accustomed
to listen only to the warning voice of
his tender conscience. Equally noble
minded and capable of sacrifice, although
less prominent in magnanimity and
b%enevolence is his abettor, Jameson, to
whom he entrusted the guidance of his
troops of fortune hunters fighting for
the good of "the silent, sullen peoples"
an abettor whose noble enterprise was
lamentably wrecked by the persistent
opposition of the stupid-minded, stub
born, short sighted Beers, who are tot
ally insensible to such far-reaching, hu-
name efforts.
One Form of Burden"
Unfortunately the white Mans
Burden" occasionally assumes very
doubtful forms, of which rape, practiced
in the New Hebrides and other groups
of South Sea islands, is, perhaps, the
most customary, and the favorite. Re-
Gently a French cutter surprised a black
chieftain's beautiful daughter, who,
with eighteen companions, was bathing
on the shore of the island Of Aoba and
carried them all away. The enraged
chieftain avenged himself, according to
savage custom, by Staying the white
governor with all axe. The investiga-
ton which followed o on explained the
mysterious and seemingly vicious deed.
An English cruiser gave chase to the
French cutter and brought back the stolen
maidens, thereby rescuing them from
slavery. The Frenchman was very in
dignant at this pursuit and, until enlight-
ened by the news of the murder OF the
governor, could not at all understand
why the Englishman should have sud
denly espoused the cause of the natives
and interfered in this matter, which
was quite an everyday affair. 1t finally
turned out that English as well as
French sailors committed like abduc-
tions as a matter of business, and that
hundreds of maidens were annually "a
rificed to this greed for gain.
Take up the white mans burden
Ye dare not stoop to less
Nor call too loud ON freedom
To cloak your WEAKNESS.
By all ye will or whisper,
By all ye leave or do,
The silent, sullen peoples
Shall weigh your God and YOU"
1t has already been done. Weighed,
weighed, and found wanting"

al objects of booty it may, however, be
the intention of the Americans to take
possession of the entire archipelago, and
any one who opposes the carrying out
of this plan will do it to his own
peril. In a more recent declaration
of the civil commission the Filipinos
are assured that the government at
Washington is e~ndeavoring only Ito
secure them peace and protection" and
"to bestow upon them prosperity and
happiness" 1t is even added that the
United States would be ready to fur
nish armies and navies in order to main
tain sovereignty over the islands, in
realization of this ideal. 1t is a pity that
such a contradictory declaration should
have been published on the fourth, in
stead of OH the first, Of April. These con-
ciliatory promises recall a passage in
President McKinley's message given to
congress in December, 1897, in which he
proposes the independence Of Cuba,
and guarantees the neutral in%terposition
of the United States: II speak not of
forcible annexation, for that a not be
thought of. That, by our code of NOR
ais, would be criminal aggression" A
year later, on the 21st day of Decem-
Der, 1898, Mr.. Mckinley issued another
proclamation in which he b%rusquely
announced to the inhabitants Of the
DhsI;NDi~oo that hn bod horrht Thorn
from the Spanish and would now take
possession of his property. The cir
cumstance that the Filipinos had de-
clared themselves free and independent,
did not acknowledge the %prerogative of
the %Spaniards, and were therefore no
longer human chattels in the interna-
tional market of the world, was not men,
toned. Absurd to the last degree was the
assurance that he came mot as an ag-
gressor and conqueror but as a friend"
an assertion which only a man totally
devoid of a sense of the ludicrous could
have made in this connection. Just as
reasonably might a burglar caught in the
act of house breaking allege a friendly
visit in explanation of his presence in the
house. 1t should not be taken amiss if one
gives no unlimited confidence to friends
who pay him a visit armed with weap-
ons or house breaking tools. AS Presi-
dent Mckinley issued his proclamation
before the peace treaty was sanctioned
by the American senate or the Spanish
cortes, it was not only unwise and un-
timely but also arbitrary and unconstitu-
%tional, although it was, possibly, the log
ical consequence of the folly committed
by his peace commission in Paris. There
the Spaniards acted very judiciously in
deciding to evacuate the colonial camp,
and to part with the last burdensome
remnant in the form of an unconquer-
able instruction for an acceptable price,

lance and real satisfaction, and the con-
seriousness of having made a good bar
gain. Mckinley rejoiced over this ac-
QUESTION and could not await the fulfill
ment of the legal conditions necessary
to the validity of the contract in order
to make good his claims to the property.
"Forcible annexation" which he had
twelve months before designated as
criminal aggression" and an unimagin-
able Infringement Of the moral law, he
worthy course of action. The Filipinos
are no longer brave champions of lib
erty, but only knavish, ambushed insur-
gents and obstinate enemies, at best
perverse children, who for the promo
ton of their mental development and
civilization must be disciplined and ed
ucated by American teachers. 1t is
true that a clear-sighted, competent, in
corruptible authority, Admiral Dewey,
has given excellent testimony in their
behalf. In a report to the secretary of
the navy, June 81, 1898, he says: I'm
my opinion these people (Filipinos) are
far superior to the Cubans in intelli-
gence and capacity for self-government.
I know both races" Further observa-
tions have only confirmed this opinion SO
favorable to the Tagals and so inoppor-
tune for the 'imperialist politicians"
now in Washington; an opinion which
comedies with the views of Bastian,
Blumentritt and other chronological
explorers, who have made thorough in
vestigations and have given interesting
reports of the peculiar condition of civ
ilization, and the innate capacity for
cultivation of the native tribes of this
country. We speak now, Of course, not
of the rough mountaineers, but of the
Tagals, including the Chinese and
Spanish Mestizos, who everywhere take
the lead and prove themselves the real
introducers Of civilization into the Phil
ippines. Thus in speaking of the condi-
ton of civilization in the United States
of North America one considers, not the
illiterate mountaineers of the South
Alleghanies, but the educated, in many
cases mixed, population of the arabic
plains and large cities. A strongly
marked characteristic Of the Filipinos is
the love of freedom, which is easily
wounded and offers immediate resis-
lance to any appearance of despotism.
Only a calm and conciliatory policy can
accomplish anything with them. BY

paper attacks on Dreyfus, saying that
the information regarding the border
eau contained in them convinced him
that they had been inspired by some
one closely connected with the Dreyfus
affair. They could not, he added, be
attributed to the Dreyfus family, while
they contained expressions familiar to
Du Patty de Clam, which were interest
ing to hear on the subject. Witness
next said he asked permission to in
quire into the source of the articles, but
was forbidden to interfere in any way
whatever.
Describing his interview with Gen.
Gonse, Sept. Is, Picquart said when
asked Gen. Gonse for permission to
continue the investigation, insisting on
the danger of allowing the Dreyfus
family to proceed with their investiga-
ton alone, the general replied that 1t
was impossible, in his opinion, and in
the opinion of Gen. De Boisdeffre and
the minister of war, to reopen the af-
fair. When 1 pressed the point, in or
der to make Gen. Gonse understand
that nothing could prevent its opening

witness. THAT is what occurred I

emphatically smote the bar in front
of the witness box and looking in the
direction of the generals.

PIcoUARTs MISSION.

Then returning to the mission upon
which he was dispatched, Picquart de-
scribed the irritation he felt when he
was removed, because he was no long
er wanted as head of the intelligence
department. He explained that if this
disgrace had been frankly avowed, it
would have been much less painful to
him The colonel also said that during
his absence his correspondence was
tempered with. Dealing with his mis-
sion to Tunis, which Picquart said
ought TO have been entrusted to a COM
missary of police, the witness declared
1t was then that Henry, abandoning his
underhand intrigues, began a campaign
of open persecution.
Henry wrote to the witness, accusing
him Of communicating to the press,
with disclosing the contents of the Sc
to suborn officers In connection WITH
the Petit Bleu. 1t was then Picquarr
learned of the existence Of the forged
document directed against himself, and
to prevent his own ruin IL the Dreyfus
affair should be reopened and to safe
guard himself, he entrusted to a law
yer friend a letter from Gen. Gonse. at
the same time acquainting him of the
news regarding Esterhazy, and the
lawyer promised to intervene IL the oc-
casion should demand It. This lawyer
communicated with M Scheurer- Kest-
ner then one Of the vice presidents OF
the Senate, and the representations of
the latter to Premier Meline's govern
ment followed.

them he said he adhered to his opinion
and earnestly asked to see the original,
when | saw beyond a doubt that the
handwriting of the bordereau was Es-
terhazy's and, seeing that the docu-
ments mentioned therein might have
been supplied by Esterhazy, that the
words I am going to the maneuyres
could perfectly well apply to Esterha-
hazy, and that Esterhazy had secreta-
ries at his disposal to copy a document
so vOluminous as the firing manual I
resolved to consult the secret dossier

be ascribed to Dreyfus and to assure
myself whether the dossier contained
anything indicating Esterhazy. 1

what is gathered about Esterhazy's
character" he continued, created the
worse impression upon me, but learn
ed nothing to connect Esterhazy with
any act of espionage. Therefore,
did not mention my suspicious. An
agent, however, was ordered to watch
Esterhazy, who had completely COM

had agreed to become a director. That

Turning to the leakage at headquar-
ters, the witness described the nego-
tiations of Maj. Lauth with the spy,
Richard Cuers, at Basic, showing how
leakage, and how he, Picquart, was in
duced to allow Lieut.. Col. Henry to ac-
company Maj. Lauth to Basic. Pic
quart also described the vague replies
of Henry, when questioned on the sub
jact of Esterhazy before his departure,
and the futility of the visit to Basic,
because Of Cuers' refusal, when he saw
Henry, to impart the promised inform
alton. This incident caused the wit

Basic incident, Col. PicQuart had de-

about Esterhazy.
I'm answer to my request" said the
witness, Gen. De Boisdeffre wrote me,
asking me to meet him at the train on
his arrival from vichy. While driv-
ing from the railroad station to the
generals hotel, ! told him all had

question was to remain secret be-

ton it except to the minister of war. l

the war office, and l did not regard his
desire favorably. l communicated my
impressions to my chief, who approved
all my steps, and the application of Es-
terhazy was rejected.
His insistence, however, only in
creased my uneasiness regarding him.
and 1 resolved to obtain a specimen
Of his handwriting. I was Immediate
ly struck with the similarity of his
handwriting and that of the bordereau,
and forthwith / had the letters of Es-
terhaZy which were in my possession
photographed and showed the photo
graphs to Maj. Du Patty De Clam and
M. Bertillon, the handwriting expert
between Aug. rs and Sept. s."
The witness, continuing, said "You
know he maintained that the bordereau
is the joint work of Alfred and Mat
thew Dreyfus. M. Bertillm said:
That is the writing of the bordereau.'
M. Bertillon tried to discover where /
had obtained the handwriting but the
only information impaired was that it
was current and recent handwriting. M.
Bertillon then suggested that it was a
tracing and ended by saying that if it.
was current handwriting, it could only
have emanated from some one whom
the Jews had been exercising for a wear
in initiating the handwriting of the

was ordered to send Picquart to the
frontier Of Tripoli
The general commented to the wit
ness on this abnormal order, and Pic
quart confided to the general the prob
able reasons for it and his belief in the
innocence of Dreyfus. General LecIerc
thereupon ordered Picquart not to go
beyond Gabes.
In the meanwhile the campaign in
Paris was continued. Picquart here
created a sensation by remarking that
the judges in 1894 were shamefully de-
ceived in having the document contain
ing the words "cette canaille de D.
communicated to them. Witness tnen
bitterly recited the details of the va
rious Vaccinations discriminating him,
started by Henry, Esterhazy and Patty
Du Clam.
When he resumed his deposition, the
witness said he regretted he had not
been given the opportunity to contra
dict his accusers at that court mar
tial. Il have almost finished my task"
added Picquart, but / ask permission
to refer to the way the bordereau came

gard to the person who brought the
bordereau. Two quite different per-

its contents"
