But what of the cause of the war;
They are exactly the same causes
which have ch aracterized every war
of conquest which England has waged
for more than one hundred years viz
acquisition.
England commended that her subjects
i'll Jhe Transvaal were not getting fail
treatment. Those subjects were being
taxed to support government in
which they had no voice, and demand.
ed that they be allowed to vote, while
still holding allegiance to the British
government. And let us say right here
that exactly tie spm!s cause exists for
complaint here in the United States
+ IT if a foreigner comes here and &C.
quires property, he must pay his pro-
portion of taxes; but he is not allowed
to have hand in ille government un-
til he has foresworn allegiance to his
country.
And did England feel that she dared,
she would not hesitate to make the
same demands OF this country, which
she has of the Transvsal. viz: hand
inthe governments AND it has been
demonstrated many times that for
England to have hand, means the
supper hand"
