partial and fair mind will understand
that it was impossible for the South
African Republic to grant political
rights to foreigners. Why, the fran
chise in the Transvaal was denied to
friendly foreigners of our own race
to the citizens of the Orange Free
State. Why should we have granted
il to Englishmen.

grounds the estimate was made, think
ing it was too high, as it would show
an increase Of about so per cent during
the last decade, the census OF 1890 be-
ing only $4,000. s2. r ~ 20 aaa

THE BRISTOL CASE.
A Jury Finally Secluded After Much
Trouble.

The court room at Cheyenne was fill
ed again yesterday when Judge Bran
Ell convened the district court and the
work of securing a jury in the Bristo
case was resumed. The Sun-Leader
says hat again was the new jury law
referred to by lawyers in terms nor
forcible than eloquent. Juror after jur-
or would either testify that he was
biased or prejudiced or would be chal-
lenged. necessitating more jurors. Their
the box containing the Of all AK
brought forward and more names
drawn. The anne Of several dead meN
were pulled out of the box and, {
course, Sheriff Shaver was at a los>
where to serve the summons. Some OF
the names drawn were of persons in
South Africa, whose presence could only
be secured with the permission and
special decree OF Hon. Dom Paul. 9th
ers were in England and even on the
names in the five mile radius, the men
were very hard to find and court was
delayed very much. Were 1t not for
the liberal construction placed upor
the law by the courts, it would occas.
ion even more inconvenience, loss OF
time and money. The law is regarded
as a farce and it is expected that it will
be repealed by the next legislature.
1t was II O'Clock in the morning
when a jury was secured composed Of
the following men: VIM. Cole, Ed
Francis, George H. Bingham. Fred
Bonser, Thomas Heaney, F. NJ. Kres-
UGH, w. A. Hopkins, Charles H. Con

When court convened after dinner
the jury had been completed by John
Powell. The court room was filled

The examination Of witnesses was com
menced at once. The case is being hot
ly contested by both sides, Prosecuting
Attorney Moore being assisted by Attor-
ney B. F. Fowler, and Attorneys Clark
& Breckons and W. R. Stoll appearing
for the defendant, A. w. Bristol. It
was not pleasant to observe the morbid
curiosity which filled the court room
with men. The young girls who were
compelled to come forward and testify
before this motley crowd had the SYM
pathy of all right thinking persons.
The defense will seek to establish an
alibi. Much Of the time yesterday was
consumed in discussing technical points
of law.

Yesterday morning the Denver News

a general strike among the Union Pa
