America may feel complimented by the
fact that the constitution of the Orange
Free State was based upon the i'm
mortal document of Jefferson. 1t was
adopted on April 10. 1854. The presi-
dent is elected every five years by all
the enfranchised burghers. The Roman
Dutch law is the common law of the
land. In the absence of specific statu-
tory provisions the courts follow this
law Free speech and the liberty of the
press are guaranteed. as in the Ameri-
can constitution. The constitution can
not he amended or repealed except by
q three fourthS vote at each of two an
nual sessions of the legislature. Only
minor changes in the fundamental
law have been made since its adoption
in 1851 Eight different presidents
have held office since that date.
In dealing with the British and the
mining promoters the authorities of the
Orange Free State have been less eau
tious than those of the Transvaal and
they have got the worst end of every
deal made. Their hatred of every
thing English is matter of education,
almost n matter of religion. and while
the Beers of both republics must in the
end go down together it is doubtful
whether their downfall will he worth
to Great Britain W hat il will cost.

The carriage horses of Chief Justice
Marshall were exceedingly thin. and
his family told him that it was cur
| rently limited that Jerry, the colored
coachman, exchanged too great a pro-
portion of the horse feed for whisky
for personal use to allow the horses
food enough to keep them in a good
and creditable condition. The judge
went to the stable and directed .Ierry's
attention TO the poor appearance Of
the horses, told him of the rumor
about his exchanging oats and hay for
whisky and thereby depriving the
horses of their necessary supply of
food and spoke of the sleek, fat team
driven by his neighbor Brewer.

TAKES A HIGH PLACE

Attention is Naturally Excited When
Anything is Praised by People
Whom We Know.

A thing that stands high in the es-
timation of the public, and which is
especially recommended by Ohio
people, naturally eXcites our atten-
ton more than if our own people did
not praise the article. Such thing is
going on right here in this state every
day. people are praising Morrow s
Kid-ne-oids because they cure.
There is no deception, no humbug.
they do positively cure, and we fur
nish the evidence.
Mr.. and Mrs. Remby, 534 Short ST..
Cambridge. O.. says: Our four
year-old son was troubled with weak
kidneys all his life, and we We're
never able to get anything that
would cure him until we heard al out
MOrrow's Kid-ne-oids, and they
have completely cured him of his
trouble. Mr.. Remby was also cured
of kidney disorder by tn use of
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids i'll very short

RAADzAAL, OR COUNCIL CHAMBER, AT BLoEN-

FONTEIN.
CURED with the natives, in which
Great Britain became involved. and in
1913 the country was annexed TO her
majesty's dominion. This was not sat
isfactOry to the people. however. and in
1858 it was resolved TO abandon the
Orange river British sovereignty on
the best terms obtainahle for such of
the inhabitants as had settled there
under imperial assurances. Sir George
Clerk, the special commissioner, ac-
cordingly signed convention in Feb
ruary, 1854. transferring the govern
ment TO body of Boer delegates, and
the Orange Free State thereupOn took
its place among the Independent pow
ers of the world The chief legislative
body is called the volksraad, which
holds its sessions in the raadZaal, or
council chamber. in the city of Bloem-
fontein.
The inha bitantS of the Orange Free
State are very like the Beers of the
Transvaal. They are noted for their
severe simplicity. They are extremely
religious and inclined to the belief that
the Lord is generally on their side.
An infusion of Huguenot blood makes
them independent, and they have both
time and inclination for fighting when
ever satisfactory excuse is offered. The
educa atioral system of the government
is broad and liberal. and the result is
shown in the superior intelligence of
the youth of the nation. The depart
ment of education is under a Superin-
tepdent. who has under him large
and efficient corps of instructors. There
are about so fine government schools,
with a staff of $40 teachers. The gov
ernment schools are of three kinds
town, ward and peripatetic schools. To
teach them the instructors are divided
into first, second and third class, ac-
cOrding to the grade of their certifi-
Gates from the board of state exam
iners This board can grant certifi
Gates of proficiency in law, land sur
veying and i'm science and literature
generally. The only higher education
schools supported by the state are
Danes institute and Grey college. botll
of which are at BloemfOntein. III these
institutions the students are prepared
for matriculation at the Cape universl-
ty in Cape Colony or Victoria college
at StellenboSch.
Like the Beers of the TranSvaal, the
people of the Orange Free State de-
pend largely upon nature for their sup
plies, and there is 10 such thing as
starving them out. The principal lands
are best adapted to stock raising and
are utilized solely for such purposes.
There is. however, strip of land
from 80 to 100 miles wide along the
Basutoland border which is extremely
fertile and devoted to raising grain.
