THE SOUTH AFRICAN TROUBLE.

The Bee gives the following as the
true inwardness of the trouble Eng.
land is having in South Africa:
To understand the trouble in
Southern Africa, it must be remem-
bered that what are called Ultland-
ers or foreigners, went there to open
mines, construct and operate rail-
roads, etc. They did 30 on the condi-
tons laid down by tho Government
OF that country. Among those condi-
tions which they accepted from the
Beers, and we're glad to accept, was
one taxing them certain percentage
on the incomes derived from the de-
velopment OF the resources OF the
country.
This has been the law which the
British Government finds particularly
Objectionable. And yet a similar
law was enacted by the Canadian par.
iment. and is today in force in the
. Klondike country, where they make
American miners pay to the Canad.
ian Government certain percentage
OF the amount of gold which they dig
from the land.
Beyond that, no wever, the Uitland-
ers on the Transvaal asked for GER
tain kind Of citizenship 80 that they
might evade this tax and ultimately
control the Government. The Beers
very wisely declined to accept the
terms of the Uitlanders, who wanted
to still remain foreigners and yet
have a voice and probably the lead
ing one, in the Government. The
Beers are werfectly willing that the
Uitlanders shall become citizens of
the Boer Republic, but in doing 80
they must forswear allegiance to any
other country and become citizens in
fact as well as in name.

when they stood in the pathway of that

on sealed orders penned by his own

Arrival of Miss Grant.

Among tho passengers who arrived
here on the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse
yesterday was Miss Julia Dent Grant,
the daughter of General Frederick u.
Grant, who is engaged to be married TO
Prince Michael Cantacuzene of Russia.
She came with Mr.. and Mrs. Potter
Palmer and their two sons, Potter Pal
mer, Jr., and Honore Palmer. Miss
Grant was met at the pier by her grand
father, Mr.. Honore, and her mother,
who boarded the steamer and remained
with her in her statereom for some time
after the ship had reached the pier.
Miss Grant and her mother talked to
the reporters in the saloon of the
steamer.
1--WE had q beautiful trip abroad"
Miss Grant said enthusiastically. '.We
journeyed up the Nile, and, in fact,
spent most of the six months We have
been away in Egypt. OF course. we
were on the continent for some time.
This naturally suggested her engage
ment to Prince Cantacuzene, who first
met Miss Grant in Rome.
''Yes, my engagement is just as re-
ported, " she said. 'It was announced
three weeks ago in Paris. Prince Can
tacuzene could not come with us be-
cause he is in the Russian army, ana
that means that he must obey orders,
you know. expect him oyer here
early next fall, however. cannot tell
you Just where the marriage will take
place, but it will be in this country,
and will happen some time next win
ter.''
Miss grant went to her mothers
house in this city last night, and will
stay there until the commencement at
West Point, which she expects to at
tend. She will then go to Chicago
visiting her aunt, Mrs. Potter Palmer,
for some time before going to New
port.
Mrs. Grant expressed sorrow that
her husband could not be at the pier to
greet his daughter. General Grant is
now on his way to the Philippines.
When asked as to her future home,
Miss Grant SAID that she would proba-
bly, make her home in the princes
castle, in southern Russia. Prince
Cantacuzeue is attached to the emper-
or's body guard and has been for some
time connected with the Russian en-
basy at Rome. Y. Tribune.

which make men respected by their

to all, he quickly makes friends where
ever he goes, and it is safe to say that
no individ ual in the United States can
lay claim to more personal friends than
Jesse Grant. Politically he is for free

believes in the free coinage of silver,
therefor he will work with might and
