ing news from South Africa this morning is
contained in a Central News message from
Cape Town to the effect that the Beers on the
Zand River recently captured a train with an
accumulation of three weeks letters for the
troops with Lord Roberts. In addition to the
mailbags $4,000 worth of stamps for the
of the troops fell into the hands of the Beers.

At the direction Of the national COM

on the very eve Of victory for the prin-

No party has ever made such sacri-

and patriotic devotion to principle are
now beginning to bear fruit. One
more charge and the fight is won. Let
us all join together, as we did IN 1872

cause. We call upon every Populist In
the Union to rally once more under the
banner Of reform and to assist us In
winning this eliminating struggle OF
the century.
