WAS A JAMESON RAIDER
CAPTAIN THOMAS MEM VISITING
HONOLULU.
His Views Regarding the Transvaal.
The Best Mines and Mining Machin-
cry in the World,

Captain Thomas Mein, one of the men
who took part in the Jameson raid in
South Africa and from whom the
Transvaal government collected a ten
thousand dollar fine for doing so, ar
rived here on the survey ship Path
finder, as a guest of Captain Perkins.
Captain Mein has large interests in the
Transvaal and is watching the course
of events there with deep interest. He
is very emphatic in denunciatiOn of the
actions of the Beers.
THE management of affairs by the
Beers in South Africa is simply damn
able said the captain. 1T is a marvel
to me that the Uitlanders stood it as
long as they did. The only eXplana-
ton is the Englshman's habtual ODE
dience to law. An equal number of
Americans in the same country would
have risen in rebellion long ago.
when the discovery of gold was
made the Transvaal government was
absolutely without money and had not
paid any of its officers for six months.
Soon after money began piling into the
| country in such quantities that I have
seen wagon loads of coin, drawn by six
bullocks, like ordinary freight. The
Boer would not take a certified check
on the Bank of England for money. The
gold coin must be piled on table in
| front of him. In a short time English
men and other immigrants had bought
an immense area of land from the BO-
! ers. At the present day believe about
| half of the entire Transvaal is owned
by the Uitlanders, but as is well known,

Uitlanders and they have absolutely ne
voice in the management of affairs.
They are regarded as no better than
Kaffirs. In fact the Boer calls an
Englishman a white niger In the
present war he is learning his error in
regarding the British soldier as poor
fighter. A common remark of the
burghers has been that one of their
! number is easily a match for eighteen
or twenty Englishmen. This is re-
suit of the British unpreparedness in
former wars.
There is no question about the Bo-
ers' readiness to make a brave fight
but I am of the opinion that when the
British forces are ready for concerted
action the affair will not last over three
months. l do not think there will be
any guerilla warfare. The overthrow
of the Transvaal government will enc
the war in my opinion-and then the
Uitlanders will have to stand the cost

Bradstreet's shed further light on
the subject last week by giving
