THEIR VISIT uNwELcoME.

II it is true, as reported in yester-
days dispatches, that the so-called
Boer peace. emissaries. after being re-
jected in every capital of Europe, are
making plans to descend upon this
country during the most exciting stage
of our presidential campaign, then
they do not deserve even decent re-
ception and their untimely visit will be
reprobated by every patriotic American
citizen. BY all that is reasonable.

ourselves about other peoples affairs.
The attempt to mix the South African
war with American politics is mildly
characterizd as impertinenL 1t is
properly a subject Of political discus
sion in England. for it involves ques-
tions Of governmental policy that pub
lie opinion must ultimately decide.
The English, while rightly united. for
the time being, in desiring the success
of British arms. are by no means
agreed in their judgement either upon
the acts that preceded the war or upon
what should follow it, But We have
not to decide these questions
and in the fight between Britons and
Beers we are happily not called on to
take sides
To the calm observer this is a war
that seems to justify the attitude of
the woman in the story in the tight
between her husband and the bear.
Whether ones sympathies lean toward
the Britons or the Beers must depend
largely upon personal temperament
and affiliations. Theoretically, Of

We come to learn something of what
this so-called republic is, in which a
majority Of the white inhabitants, who
furnished nearly all the revenue, not
only are excluded from any represent
alton in the state but are not even
protected in person or property by the
small group of medieval peasants who
constitute the government, our theoret-
ical sympathies very materially cool.
There are a good many parallels in
the history Of the Transvaal and of
Utah. The Mormons. feeling them
selves prosecuted. went out into the
wilderness to found an independent
state. They We're brave, frugal, in

they asked was to be let alone. They

strongly to the spirit OF American lib

OF course the professional Anglo
phobe finds this a fitting occasion to
abuse perfdious Albion. and no doubt
antipathy to England has much more
to do with expressions OF sympathy
with the Beers than any considera-
ton Of their merits or demerits.
Everybody is free to think and feel and
sympathize as he will. but public agi-

teragitation until we find ourselves
foolishly embroiled in matters that
need not concern us, except as inteli-
gent citizens OF the world. In our
politics certainly 1t is still essential.
