JOHANNESBURG, August IA.
The Standard and Digger News
says today: "The Beers are; con
vinced that there is nothing for it
now but the arbitrament of
arms"
All sorts of warlike IumOrs are
in circulation. 1t is alleged that
the field comets have received
orders to supply all unarmed
burghers with rifles gratuitously
and to substitute Mausers for
Martini Henrys wherever the lat
ter are still in use. ~
CAPE TOWN, August 14.-A
dispatch from Pietermaritzburg,
capital of Natal, says that at a
farmers meeting called there to
consider the defense of the, colony,
it was resolved that theA1uty of
every loyal able-bodied colonist,
able to rise and shoot, was to aid
in the defense of the colony
against invasion, and it was an
nounced that the volunteers
would be sent to the frontier in
the event of war and the rifle as
sociations would be left to defend
their own districts.
Dispatches from Durham, in Ma
tai, announce that an armor-plat-
ed train, fitted with loopholes, has
been sent to the Natal Transvaal
border, and that artillery of the
Orange Free State is going to oc-
cupy Van Dieman's pass.
The reported shipments of
100000 from London banks is be
lieved to be due to the enormous
purchases by the Trahsvaal Coy
ernment of ammunition, sprovi-
sions and forage, the supplies ex-
ceeding those of many European
nations. The field comets are dis
tributing arms to the burghers. y
PRETORIA, August 14.-De-
spite General Joubert's denial it
lis reported that the Government
made large purchases of mules
last Saturday. Today crowd be-

nets demanding rifles on account

LONDON, August 15.-The
Johannesburg correspondent of
the Morning Post says: President
Kruger, owing to advancing
years, has become physically and

ming incapacity.
PRETORIA, August 15.-The
Volksraad has amended the Con
stitution of the South African Re
public, compelling persons who
are not burghers to cooperate
with them in the defense of the
national territory and the sup
preston of rebellion.
General Joubert, Vice Presi-
dent of the republic and Com
mander-in-C Chief of the Transyaal
forces, denies that the burghers
are loading their rifles and pre-,
pairing for war;

The Beers are very much like our
missionaries" They are intolerant.
and narrow minded. They hate and
persecute every man or woman who
does not belong to their ring. His.
tory teaches them nothing, but fate
and their luck have given to them
vast properties and plenty of wealth.
The hour of their destruction has
struck, and in the name OF liberty
and equality they must be wiped
out Of existence. They will make a
stubborn fight but defeat is the
ultimate result, and after lesson
has been taught them they can yet
find satisfaction in gracefully rstir-
ing from the lands they stole and
spend the remainder of their days
in baronial mansions in Mayfair, or
Oakland, or Nobhill.

The Squatters on the Olaa lands
will wake up one OF these days with
a costly and unpleasant experience.
"Squatters" have no standing under
the laws of Hawaii, and we all know
that the Constitution OF the United
States is not yet in force here. The
"squatters" are lucky because, a few
years from now they would have
practical proofs that the lands they
"squatted" on we're not worth
enough to accept as gift. The
Hawaiian Government has made no
contracts with or promise even to
Olaa Squatters. 1t never had the
