Tappan HaIsey, an American OF Dutch
aDtecedents, who has spent mu Ia time
10 the Transvaal, was recently asked to
give his views on the situation there and
assign reasons for the war now in pro-
gress. In response he prepared and
read a paper before the Round Table
Club, saying, among other things:
Six years before Christopher Colum.
bus came to this land the Portuguese
discovered Cape Colony, and their pos
sessions by this right we're undisputed
for more than hundred years. In 1891
the British discovered it and landed, and
four years later the Dutch. The Dutch
let their knowledge pass for fifty seven
years, when in 1862 they landed three
ship loads of eighty-sIx immigrants.
In 1886 some French Huguenots, fleeing
from religious persecution, Joined the
Dutch in Cape Colony. 10 1873 the
first effort is recorded of any attempt to
teach the gospel of Jesus of Nazareth to
the ratives, who, in fact and truth, held
their land in fee simple and had been
driven from it by the Beers. The mis-
sionars was at once exelled from the
country by the R0ers.
The British in 1875 corquered the
Dutch feet and took poss sssion of Cape
Colony. but n 1902 in was restored to
the Dutch by peace treaty. Four years
later the British took it by conquest

nounced forever all claim.
For twenty years thereafter the Beers
lived in Cape Colony under British rule.
In 1884 the English government, having
sought for the most equitable way TO
abolish the iniquitous Boer system of
slavery, passed law emancipating all
slaves, but paying the owners 100000
therefor in notes on the Bank OF Eng
land. Many of the Beers, used to lives of
ipdolence, resented this freeing OF slaves,
and moved on across the Orange river.
This move was called the great trek"
and consisted of about 10000 Beers.
The land they went into was owned and
possessed by the Zulus.
They tried to inhabit it, but strange
to say, the owners in fee simple wanted
it too, SO they fought the Zulus for thir-
teen years, until in 1S4s they had to So
iicit England to come and save them.
The English government interviewed,

government under the name OF Orange
River Sovereignty" Some Of the Beers

the country, sold your Independence, ili
treated the natives. shot them down,
sold them into slavery, must pay the
penalty"
With knowledge OF such a condition
all except the most ignorant and stub
born Beers were glad to be annexed in
1877. In 1884 and 1886 the revenue Of
the country was not to exceed 100000.
When in 1886 gold was discovered in
Johannesburg miners fiocksd there
from Germany. England, America and
elsewhere, and this made city OF lOo.-
900 people where there was none previ-
ously. The Outlanders were warmly
welcomed by the Beers, because they
needed the increased revenue. They
got il, too. as it has increased from
three hundred and seventy five thousand
to twenty-five millions, and this the Out
landers have to pay every dollar OF, and
have no representation for their tax
alton.
In 1889 the law had been so changed
that an Outlander could not obtain the
franchise under fourteen years resi-
dence. and then only II the Boer govern
ment, by two-thirds vote. was pleased
to grant it. The arrangements OF 1881
and 1884 bad been whitfield away until
the foreigners had no rights whatever
but to pay exorbitant taxes
Later, when five years residence was
required, many Americans and Euglish
bought land IN the Transvaal. built
houses, brought their families, invested
10 Hines and machinery and gradually
severed the ties that bound them to
the rest OF the world. After 1899 he
was asked to give up everything OF ci,i-
zenship in America on the chance that
after fourteen years the Beers two
thirds OF them would be pleased TO let
him vote where he was paying ninety
per cent OF the taxes, and where

ished marvelously. 1t was not SO with
the Beers across the Vaal, for they were
from the first at war with the various
tribes Of natives whose land they had
taken, and because OF their inhuman
treatment OF even the friendly tribes
there was no safety at any time. From
the River Vaal, a tributary Of the great
Orange river On the south, to the Linn
popo river on the north, the Beers had
taken a country five hundred miles long
by four hundred miles wide. 1t was
bounded by the natural protection OF
the Drakensberg mountains on the east
and Bschuanaland on the west. 1t was
all inland, and the nearest seaport was
forty five miles. at Delsgoa Bay, which
was owned by the Portuguese. The
Beers from their first possession OF the
Vaal country fought the natives with
out and enslaved those within their
borders DIR. Livings' one says: The
Beers forced even those tribes most
friendly to them to perform all kinds OF
field work for nothing and supply their
own food and Implements OF work. They
steal domestic servants from the more
hostile tribes in the most cowardly and
bloodthirs'y manner" In their treat
ment of the various friendly natives
says a resident OF the Transvaal, II
have seen a Boer on his farm summon
thirty native women to perform labor.
They came with their children strapped
on their shoulders. and their own food
was carried in their hande, and they
worked tn, number Of weeks desired
without pay at the will of the Christian
master" Livingstone says: The Beers
chief grievance against the English was
that they had the same laws for white
and black"
Constant warfare from 1913 to 1875
between the Beers of the Transyaal and
native tribes finally wearied. discouraged
and bankrupted the Transvasl, aud the
Beers, petitioned England once more to
come to their assistance. England's
control Of the territory was the price
agreed on, and the TraDsvaal was an
nexed to Cape Colony il 1877 by procla-
nation. Paul Kruger and Pet Joubert
took office under the British govern
ment.
The dangers over, the financial affairs
settled by the new government, the
Beers repented of their bargain, and in
1880, after three years Of annexation,
revolted and defeated the English in
three famous but disgraceful engage
ments. e. ding in the Maiuba Hill affair.
