the II Founders bombarding the Boers

enterprise in handling their guns, which
We're placed in strong position. The en-
emy evidently intends to contest stub
bornly the ground between here and
Machadodorp."
The Cape Town News publishes re-
markable article. appealing to eX-Prime
Minister Schreiner, former Treasurer
Merriman and commissioner of Pub
lie Works Sauer to cease their qualTels
and work together. The News admits
that the treason bill is not one of those
questions upon which the colonies are en-
titled to press their views upon the i'm
perial government. The News asks why
it should not be possible to settle the
leadership of the South African party by
holding convention of members of the
party.
This sudden conversion of The News is
said to he doubtless due to the hope that
ex-Prcmier Schrciner's support may be
gained for Mr.. Sauer's motion in favor
of republican independence.
