The Peace Conference,
N, G. g. st. l.. X. X.

Many good people throughout
all the Nations entertained the
expectation that the great Peace
Congress of Nations assembled
by request Of the Gar of Russia
this year would be u great for.
ward step toward the cessation
OF wars between the countries.
But strange TO say that the Con.
gress is scarcely adjourned until
wa between Great Britain and
the little Sonth African Republic
is about TO occur, and none OF the
other great Nations seek to avert
il. True, all these Nations. though
their representatives in the
Peace Congress pretended to
depTecate wars and TO earnestly
pray for Peace throughout the
whole world, but now not one
uplifts a hand or utters word
for peace. Great Britain is a
great big giant compared TO the
liliputian Boer Republic, and will
soon crush all the life that may
exist in the Beers for their ma.
tive land,o but no one stands out
for Peace. If Great Britain was
confronted by a nation Of equal
power, would not there be some
Intervention for Peace?
