question: "Who owns the Transvaal
district, the English or the Boers?"
The Transvaal is State with an area
of more than 10000 square miles, or
about the area of the six New England
States with New York added, and Della
ware thrown in for good measure. AS to
the ownership, it might be, just now,
illustrated by the old story of the re-
ply to the man who opening the door
of a house, asked of man and woman
within who owned the place. The
woman had both hands in the mans
hair; the man had the woman by the
throat; neither relaxed their exer-
else, but the woman found voice to say,
"That's just what we are trying to de-
termine." But to get at the facts lit
tie history is necessary. In 1850 the
Dutch East India company founded
Cape Colony. The object was to have
place for supplying the ships of the
company on their voyages to and from
India, This colony extended inland
and drew to it immigrants, Dutch,
Flemings, Germans and Portuguese.
In 1886 many Huguenots were there.
The Dutch had remained in control. but
in 1TS6 there was an uprising of the
colonists to throw off Dutch rule.
whereupon the British sent fleet and
took possession of the country, but in
1902 it was by Great Britain restored
to Holland, But four years later the
British again took possession, and the
country was formally coded to Great
Britain by the King of the Netherlands
in the general peace of 1915. Slavery
had existed there from the first. AS the
settlements were pushed inland, the
natives resisted, and there were fierce
wars with the Kaffirs and Zulus. In
the meantime the Beers had taken on
distinct traits, among which we're all
the old stubborn tenacity of the Dutch,
with much of the alertness of the
French. In 1884 Great Britain emauci-
pated the slaves in her dominions, and
then the Beers abandoned Cape Colony
and moved northward. But there were
constant wars with the natives, and all
the time the British claimed all the
country north. Finally the Beers di-
vided, one band settling in the Orange
Free State, while the other went be-
yond the Vaal river, hence the name
TransYaal, which means across or be- |
yond the Vaal This division was be-
cause of internal troubles among the
Beers themselves, a part being adher-
ents of Pretorius, first President of the
"Dutch Republic and Petgieter ri
val. The Beers were very severe
toward the natives, and there were
constant quarrels and wars with the
native tribes, and disputes with Eng
land and Portugal, At last, in 1876.
England interviewed TO restore tran
guilty and to capture territory, and
on April II, 1877, the Shepstone procla-
nation was issued, annexing the
which was followed bv
