THE TRANSVAAL SITUATION.

1t now looks ms if, in the near
future, the world will be permitted
to gaze upon battle field as
fiercely contested as any noted on
the pages of history On one side
the impulsive, proud Britisher; on
the other the fierce, stolid and de-
termined Boer.
From the fact that the Transvaal
is looked upon as n republic strug-
Cling for absolute independence,
the sympathy and moral support of
our people will voluntarily be ex-
tended to it, But there is much
in Dom PauPs government that
makes it far beneath all that is i'm
piled in the common acceptation
of the term republic
An expert mining man, who for
some time past has been in the
Transvaal making study of eX-
listing governmental conditions,
tells some interesting facts since
his return to New York. Accord
ing to his account there are three
questions that engage diplomatic
attention that of franchise, dyna-
mite and railways
The Uitlanders, who have Great
ed the wealth of the republic, are
paying ninety per cent. of the
taxes and are practically without
representation.
In regard to dynamite, the gov
ernment has granted an extensive
franchise to Holland and Ger
man syndicate to manufacture dy-
Mantle. They demand for it sew
enty-fve shillipgs case, and as
the importation of the article is il
legal the mine owners are obliged
to refuse Chicago firms offer to
lay it down in the Transvaal at
forty-fve shillings. This exorbit.
ant price makes it impossible to
work many low grade mines.
The Netherlands Railway com
pany has the exclusive right <to
construct and own railroads and to
fix its own rate. Most of the min
ing machinery comes from Chica-
go, and the haul for distance of
thirty or forty miles in the Trans
vaal costs more than that from
Chicago to New York.
There are a score of other cen
ditions prevailing in this Dutch
republic that show the need of re-
form and it is the opinion of many
that they can only be brought
about by war with England
That Kruger is despotic old
ruler is shown by his treatment of
Chief Justice Kotze. 1t seems
that he told Dom Paul that GER
tain matter suggested by the pres
ident was unconstitutional, where
upon he was summarily deposed,
and an ignorant old fellow, whose
administration of justice was ex-
pected to be more in line with
Dom PauPs idea, was appointed
to the place.
Ifsome of these matters We're
more generally known by Ameri- !
cans there would be less sympathy
for the Beers, although naturally.
in any controversy, American SYM
pathy is always with the "under

The Soldier Dead.

This is the day set apart in sacred
day, every year, in the great cities and
in the little hamlets all over the land,
the graves of those who died in defense
OF our flag are strewn with the flowers
of spring, and the beautiful exercises
which attend the occasion not only
show the gratitude of the nation. but
also teach deathless lesson in patriot
ism to the younger generation. The
long professions to the cemeteries, the
eloquent addresses, the planting of the
little flags and the scattering of the
flowers, and all the ceremonies of the
day present a spectacle not known in
other lands. The holiday is peculiarly
American. and Of all our holidays not
one better deserves perpetuation. 1t is
a shame and a pity that athletic sports
or any other interests should encroach
purpose 1t is wrong to make a holi-
day of such a holy day.
This year Memorial day has a new
significance. There are new graves to
decorate, today the graves of the
heroes of later war than that which
brought about the establishment of
Memorial day, generation ago. They
are few in comparison with the other
graves. only a thousand or two in all,
but their existence gives an added
solemnity to the occasion. There is no
doubt that the Grand Army of the Re
public will fittingly honor these graves
as we'll as those of its own members,
The soldier boy of 1898 had no more
staunch admirer than the veteran of
81, and the heroes of the later war are
worthy all the honors which a grateful
nation can bestow.
The ranks Of those who march to the
cemeteries, today, to deck the last sleep
ing places of their comrades are thin
ner than they We're a year ago. Some
have fallen from the ranks. and there
are more graves to visit. Not many
years hence the work of decorating tbs
graves will all be done by other hands
than those Of the veterans. The last
old soldier of the Civil War will die ere
many years, but Memorial day will live
while the republic survives. And
neither the graves of the blue nor the
graves of the gray shall ever lack the
care and the honors that only loving
hands can give.
