THE NEWS FROM SOUTH AFRICA

Il would probably be a mistake to
suppose that the latest aggressive move
ment OF the Beers In the Orange Free
State, indicates a turn Of the tide IN
the war in South Africa. There are now
more British soldiers I'm the field than
there are Beers in the two republics
capable Of bearing arms, including both
men and women, and Great Britain
Is Ia a position 90 send more soldiers
stan into the invaded territory.
But this is not an. The Beers have
lost their main source OF revenue, and
when their treasury is exhausted, the
war must stop while the British have
practically unlimited resources. II
may be possible for Boer forces 70 cut
railway communications, and for a
short time harass the British army, but
small and scattered as are their little
bands. they cannot harm the forces
under the command Of Lord Roberts.
To all outward appearances, the war in
South Africa has come TO a point where

the requirements OF neutrality. They

rotted away but with one exception,
perhaps, they can be repaired That
exception is where pile was placed so

is almost impossible to fit cap over
