extent of colonial troops. General Col
Vile will be succeeded by Gt neral Reg

Lord Roberts tells correspondents
that when he gets down to busines SIS
they shall have ample opportunity to
send the news. His chief press censor
yesterday issued new rules, and in
future all written communications are
to go unchecked. Only kilograms will
be censored. For the text few days
little news is likely to get through, but
later there will be more freedom. Thus
says the censor, and the clause may be
interpreted to mean that something is
about to happen.

HOUSE TO HOUSE CANVASS
Adherents OF W. &. +. 4. Bound to Save
the Temple.

That the adhcrentS of the w. G.. Il.
u, whose rallying cry has been from
the first Save the temple" has not
given hope of accomplishing its original
object is shown by the fact that n
house to house canvass of Chicago
with n view to obtaining the necessary
purchase money has begun. Mrs.
Matilda B. Carsc and friends are at
the head of this new plan to buy the
graceful structure as "a memorial to
the late Francis l.. Willard. The work
will be, however. under the personal
supervision of Mrs. Mary II. Rossiter
of New York, who arrived in Chicago
last week.

Il am convinced that IL the two re-

the Transvaal would grant a five year
retrospective franchise, the burghcrs
would retire to their own countries and
the val would cease immediately"
These views. coming from a kins-
man Of w. T.. Schrciner. the Cape
premier, will probably excite much
comment. Mr.. Conwright-Schreine
points out that the Dutch outnumber
the English colonists, and that If local

The Puerto Rican problem presents
some difficulties. Under the colonial
system OF Spain, the islanders enjoyed
certain commercial privileges, in send
ing their products to Spanish markets.
which they have now lost without re-
ceiving any ~compensating advantage
from their connection with this cour-
try. The result has been great pov-
erty and distress. IT the products OF
Puerto Rico were to be admitted to
our great markets free OF duty. Vt
would please the islanders. but dis
please many of the tobacco and the
sugar-raisers who are afraid of this
competition. In these circumstances
the proposal has been made in Con-
gress to levy upon Puerto Rico goods
one-half of the regular rates OF duty
Whether Congress has a right to levy
upon them any duty is a much disputed
constitutional question.
