How EnglIshmen Regard 1t.

Referring again to the national sig
nlficance the Democrats pretend to at
tach to the result of a single local cleo
ton In a judicial district In Missouri.
1t may be well to note how this sig
nificance has impressed some British
people that the expression was the
sentiment Of u whole state over here.
A special from London to the Chicago
Herald notes that "a small sec
ton of English politicians, mostly Radi-
Gals, profess to be gratlfed at the Mis-
souri, election, and regard IT as against
the policy of President Mckinley" The
dispatch further says this does not by
any means reflect the sentiment of the
vast majority of Engllshmen. The
Spectator reflects the sentiments Of the
latter when 1t says:
1.-THE simpler and the surer way is to give
the government ut Washington and the au-
thorlties In the Philippines free hand for
4 couple OF years Send troops TO hold
the hlntar-lands, supplement this with a
native force oflleeFed By Americans. Let
each act of occupation be made by thor
ough and honest Americans. and to con-
vince the Flllpinos that the quickest way
to restore peace and order is TO accept the
Inevitable.
That, as we have heretofore said. Is
one way to bring about the result, and
whether annexation is to follow or not,
the natives must come to realize the
power and good intentions of this coun-
try.
Another opinion expressed by the
Spectator is on an entirely different
question, but Democratic issue In this
country, initiated in the Ohio Demo-
cratic platform adopted on the nomlna-
ton of Mclean 1t is the denuncia-
ton of the so-called English-American
alliance, Of which It is intended to
make a campaign matter next year.
The Spectator calls attention TO the
Ohio state Democratic conventions de-
nunciatlon in its platform OF the alleged
SECRET and vicious alliance now In EVIL
dence between England and the Repub-
llcan administration" and says: Eng
Iishmen need not pay close attention to
platform ideas OF this kind. 1t is a
mere babble of the political auction
room, and has little serious import"
This comes from an influential Brit
lsh paper, and indicates that 1t has
sufficiently studied American politics
to become thoroughly posted on a hab-
ituaI trick Of the Democratic party.

Chicago Record: 1t is England and
not the Beers that hesitate. Evidently
the British government does not want
war and Is still trying to avoid II.
England has good reason to hesitate
before attacking the Beers within their
own borders. The ancestors OF these
same Beers did most to drive the ma
tives out OF Cape Colony, benefit that
at once accrued TO the British. Believ-
ing themselves unfairly treated, the
Beers left Cape Colony and again en-
gagtng the saVages drove them out Of
the Transvaal country and settled there.
BY nature the BOer Is stolcal and I'M.
perturbable. For generations these
people have fought and hunted with
the rifle on horseback and on foot, ac-
quiring both courage and steadi-
ness. It Is perhaps true that for DASH
ing campaigning they might not rival
the British, but for resistance to an In
Vasion such as they may encounter they
are almost unequaled. 1t Is accepted
that the man who defends his home
fights with desperate courage, and 1t Is
also well understood that men who are
inspired by religious zeal are dangerous
opponents. The Boer Is ruled by Pres
byterianism and his love for his own In
stItutions It is said that there are
10000 Beers to carry arms. should
half that number be thrown out to
check a British invasion, the assailants
will find the journey to Pretoria hard
and long. The war Of 1881 was q pitt
full slaughter OF British soldiers. The
Transvaal was then under direct Bril-
fish rule. The Beers felt that they
were not treated justly, and struck for
freedom. Within four days after the
revolt started the Beers and the British
came together at Bronkhorst Spruit.
The battle lasted ten minutes. One
hundred and fifty British soldiers out OF
246 were killed. and the rest surrender
ed, The Beers lost not ore man; AT
Laings Mex the Flfty-eighth regiment
attacked force OF Beers. The battle
lasted few minutes: ia. British SOL
oilers were killed and the Boer loss was
reported as thrilling" All the regiment
al and most of the company officers
were picked OF by the Boer rifemeR,
and the regiment retreated under COM
mand OF a lieutenant. At Ingogo river
the British lost 100 out OF go soldiers
engaged. The Beers lost eight Killed
and nine wounded. At the storming
of Majuba hill by the Beers, the British
lost in killed 226 out Of the 400 engaged,
the Beers losing ore maa. This pattle
ended the war.
The disastrous experience OF the raid
ers led by Jameson Is fresh In the MEM
DRY OF all.
1t is not surprising that the British
move slowly in their dealings with these
stubborn and self-rellant people.
