FORCING cHAMBERLAIN's HAND.

FORCING CHAMBERLAIN'S HAND.
All the indications for the past twenty
four hours point to the plain purpose Of
England to raid the Transvaal The lat
est London dispatches, many of them
positively false in their statements of
facts, and nearly all of them deliberately
misleading in their conclusions regard
ing the relative positions of the two coun-
tries in the still pending negotiations,
are all OF the same tenor. Yet, it is
hard to understand how England can
dare, in the face of the civilized world,
to force on the contest, In view of the
position which her ministers now occupy
in those negotiations.
Str William Harcourt has we'll said
that with both parties taking new de-
parture, there can be no obstacle to an
amicable solution. That new departure
is fairly outlined by Mr.. Chamberlain
to be regarded as a new trap to catch
the wary Kruger.
Let us sketch briefly the present posi-
ton Of the controversy, as 1t presents
itself to the average American observer:
The question of suzerainty has been in
troduced into the problem by Mr.. Cham
berlain, according to Sir Vernon Har-
court. Whether by Chamberlain or Kru-
ger, the question is there; and it APP
pears to be the main proposition on
which Mr.. Chamberlain would be COM
PEELED to rest today if called on to JUS
tify the massing OF British troops in
South Africa. But that suzerainty oues-
ton is really a very simple one The
Transvaal people have sovereign rights
as a nation, subject to the veto Of the
imperial government. Whether England
whether 1t is Of any value to her, is out
Of the question just now. She has it,
and apparently has no thought of re-
linquishing it. The real point at issue
has said up to his recent dispatch, is the
question Of suffrage That is and always
has been the pith of the British COM
plant. The TraLsvaal offered the five
year franchise Since the proposals
which embodied that offer were rejected
by Mr. Chamberlain and that official
doubled back on his trail at an early
stage Of the negotiations, the Transvaal
withdrew that proposal and substituted
the seven-year plan.
Now there is no essential difference
between these two proposals of seven
and fve-year franchise, since 1t is
understood that each is retroactive 1t is
plain that Sir Conyngham Greene, as
well as Miner, looked upon the negotia-
tons as likely to result in assuring
substantial advance toward independent
sovereign rights by the Boer republic,
provided the necessary liberallty was

WEAKEST OF PRESIDENTS.

of his solemn pledge to the American
people, he yielded tn the clamor of

Il breach in the civil service system
In doing so he has forfeited public
confidence aud deserves the stineing
febuSes he has received from the
ahlcst ana most influential of his
own party newspapers. But this is
not all More than one hundred of
tile leading business men Of Chicago
recently signed and sent to him a Wig
orons protest against his surrender to
the pot hunting politicians of the
Republican party The signerS of the
paper are both Republicans and Dem
ocrats, a majority Of them Republi-
cans, but all OF them honest and in.
telligent citizens who believe that the
government should be conducted on
business principles. These rcpresen-
tative men of the second greatest city
in the country tell the President that
his civil service order was "a conccs-
Sion to the demands of avowcd spoils-
men" and with much force and truth
they add: "Gour action in this matter
is something more than a dcbanchery
of the public service. 1t strikes at the
principles Of representative self gov
ernment itself"
