CURRENT COMMENT.

We are surprised 70 find the following
candid statement in the Springfield Re
publican. which IS more or less tainted
by the abolition sentiment in New Eng
gland. We quote:
"The American feeling toward mig.
gers" whether In Georgia or Luzon. is
characteristic OF the whole Englsh-speak-
ing race. While the British government Is
making such an ado over the political de-
mands Of the gold-seekers IN che TRANS
Vaal, II seems that In the British colony
OF Natal near by a great number of
Hindus are treated as II they had no
rights az all. Fifty thousand Indians
from Hindustan helped TO COLOMBO Natal
and to-day. with their descendants, they
outnumber the colonists OF European de-
scent. The young men of Hindu parent
age have in many cases become English
speaking Afrikanders and possessed OF
some education, yet they are denied all
political rights"
This race prejudice exits the world over.
