The defeat of a part OF the British
forces under Gen. White at Lady
smith ending in their surrender, while
not decisive, is most highly encourag-
ing and may be the turning point OF the
campaign in favor of the Beers.
While England may outnumber the
Beers and whip them in time the Beers
have shown that they are worthy OF
The best steel and generalship in the
British army.
Of course, if they can not whip the
British army already at Ladysmith they
certainly will not stand much show al
ter achievements have arrived; hence
the present victory is by no means de-
cisive.
1t may, however, be the turning
point in the war, for success will give
added impetus to Boer aggression and
vigor to their onslaughts against the
foe. This splendid victory added TO
the fact that they have the right on
lIlCll SloC Will lIOl OAiy iNi'S e-AN
on in their struggle for home and lib
erty, but will have a proportionately
disheartening effect on London. Eng
lands always alert continental enemies,
moreover, do not fail to keep in close
touch with the situation and every
English reverse increases the dam
ger of complications that may pre-
cipitate a general conflict of the powers
which in turn might leave the Queen
stripped of her worldwide domain.
England is on dangerous ground.
She would much better have given up
the scheme Of robbing the Beers of
their gold and diamond mines or well
coined the mediation of the United
States, by which she he'd nothing to
lose, whereas now she stands to lose
much and will do well to hold her
own in South Africa.
Meanwhile, all civilization outside of
England will wish the Beers continued
success.

A PICTORIAL FALsEHooD.

The New York Herald has cartoon
on the Transvaal situation that is very
untruthful in sentiment. 1t represents
Uncle Sam standing between the Brit
ish and interference by the other Euro
pean powers in South Africa because,
as Is pictorially alleged John Bull pre-
vented interference by those powers
with the United States in the Spanish
war, the cartoon being labelled Lest
we forget"
This is extremely far fetched and
shows how severe is the strain upon
the organs of an Anglo-American alli-
ance. The only ground for the Her
AIDS cartoon is the well known fact
that the chief magistrate of the United
States is dead willing" to join Great
Britain in a grand imperial scheme of
world grabbing. The once gentle Will
liam of Canton appears to have become
military mad at the smell of blood,
which has upon him an effect opposite
to what it had upon those other war
heroes, his predecessors, Lincoln and
Grant, in whom the clash of arms and
blood spilling only excited a strong de-
sire for peace But William of Canton
was not cast in the mold of Lincoln
or Grant. Imagine those grand
characters taking sides with Britain n
her brutal schemes of imperial piracy
and plumber of a sister republic to the
extent Of refusing to offer this mother
republics good offices to save that
weaker sister from being robbed of her
property, rights and liberties. Would
Lincoln or Grant have turned a deaf
ear to the plea Of freedom and human
ity in this case as Mckinley did?
The organs of an Anglo-American
alliance claim that it is none of our
affair. If we remember rightly the
same class told us that interference
with Spanish barbarities in Cuba was
none of our affair, yet to-day William
Mckinley loses no opportunity of
parading before the world OUR war
for humanity in Cuba and posing in
the lime-light as the hero of it all.
Still, in this latest instance our weak
kneed President exhibits no more in
consistency than in his prosecution Of
war of conquest in the Philippines
cas- a result" as he claims, of that war
Tor humanity in Cuba. Nor can the
administration be accused of inconsist-
ency in its declination to mediate in
the South African trouble in the light
of its Philippine policy. Having
adopted the English policy Of
piracy in Asia, Mr.. Mckinley has NOR
ally resigned his right to interfere
with England's prosecution of the same
policy in South Africa. Chamberlain
and Mckinney are international COM
rades, each engaged in the effort to
subjugate a weaker people, destroy
their free government and rob them of
their possessions, holding them mean
while as colonists.
1t is enough to agitate the dust of our
revolutionary fathers in their graves.

Pious Mr.. Mckinley who can't stand
Mr. Roberts of Utah pays the Sultan
of Sulu and his chiefs fat salaries for
the support of their slaves and harems,
Notwithstanding the fact that the Con-
stitution of the United States says:
Neither slavery nor involuntary SER
vitude shall exist within the United
States or any place subject to their jur-
isdiction." Yet here we find Mr.. Nc
Kinley, who is shocked at Mr.. Roberts,
tolerating slavery and polygamy in its
worst form among government depend
ents, for the Sultan of Sulu and his
chiefs are on Uncle Sans salary list.

SPECTACULAR POLITICS.

The Republican machine in Penn
sylvania has stirred up a hornets nest
about the famous Tenth Regiment Of
that State The machine politicians
have been parading around and exhib-
iting on the stump with their speakers
squad of the gallant Tenth in uni
form. This prostitution of the heroes
of the Philippines to the base uses Of
a gang of political sharpers has had a
tendency to bring the Tenth Regiment
into disrepute among decent people in
the Keystone State Hence the kick
from members of the regiment and
others
Col. Barnett's effort to create enthu-
siasm for the machine ticket by using
military trappings and drums on the
stump is likely to have the opposite
effect at the polls. The people of Penn
sylavnia may be welded to their dis
reputable political idols, but we don't
believe they are so childish and gullible
as to be taken in by such methods and
many will unquestionably resent the
imputation upon their common sense
at the polls.

In watching the Transvaal situation
we have almost lost sight of our own

as well satisfied that the people should
lose sight of that affair at least until
