Since the English will now surely
conquer the Transyaal aud also the
Orange Free State which, as an ally,
has thrown in its lot with the other
republic it is to be hoped that the in
eyitablo outcome may not be greatly
delayed Tho more quickly the
Transvanl can be brought to submits
sion, tho less innocent blood will be
shed, and the less the world at large
will be disturbed by this hideous
crime against women and children md
the happiness of thousands of homes
crime of which the political lead
ers on both sides are guilty. If the
of the original Dutch emigrants, had
been progressive like the descendants
of the English colonies of North Amer
len, they might have kept control of
brought about great independent
South African republic extending
from Cape Town far to tho northward
and from one ocean to the other. But
they have not proved equal to the OPP
portunity, and tho English have long
since made themselves not IN words
alone, but in fact the paramount
power in that part of the African con
tinent. Cape Colony, although under
British sovereignty, is n free and self
governing republic, in far more sat
isfnctory sense than is the Transynnl
under the rule of Paul Kruger, who
has held the mastery now for almost
twenty years, and who, il not quite as
absolute as car, liz about as potent
in affairs ns kaiser. When i'll the
early future the Transvnal has been
annexed to tho British empire, there
will probably come about almost at
once II more modern and complete
government based on the will of the
majority than has over been there be-
fore. Only, of course, it will he II
majority of the present, rather than of
the original, inhabitants; nni that
will mean transfer of predominant
authority from the Dutch speaking to
the English speaking race. From

Washington, March 5.-Senator William
B. Allison knows a thing or two about

plan on the part of Vest, German. Cock

ton.

journment and Allison did not care to
take any chances with the bill on We'd

President Hobart in the chair Allison
had the bill in his hand. Scarcely a doz-
en- senators were In the chamber when he
hurried up to the Vice Presidents stand
and whispered something in his air
Allison returned to his place, presented
the bill, and it was being read a third
time when Senator Vest entered the
chamber, approached Allison and said
whats this going on here?"
Allison laid his hand on Vests shoulder
and whispered in his ear fully a minute,
evidently telling a funny story, while the
clerk hurriedly read the bill. The bill
had passed and Allison was still talking
