LONDON, Jan. 24.-General
Buffers great turning movement
of which so much was expected,
has come to a standstill. His
carefully worded message to the
war Office telling this, after a
silence of two days, reads like
an apology and an explanation.
General Warren holds the rid
ges but the enemy's positions are
higher. The British artillery is
playing on the Boer positions,
and the Beers are replying. The
British infantry is separated by
only 400 yards from the enemy,
but an approach to the steep

fact that General Butler was

A rolling stone gathers no moss
"a wandering miner never max
es a dollar. Don't believe all
that is told. This is a wicked,
perverse generation, and many
stories have no foundation in
fact. It is not always pleasant
to play the role of doubling
Thomas" but it is better to doubt
than be deceived. A certain
amount of confidence may be
given to reports, but one is pre-
pared for disappointment, if he
withhold some of it. Alaska,
doubtless, has large areas of
placer ground, but if published
reports may be credited the
wealth of that territory lies in
its quartz lodges. Some very
flattering assays have been made,
and considerable capital is being
employed in that direction. But
quartz requires money to work
and develop. The placers are
the poor mans diggings. But
many men have lost their all in
in both propositions. More will
suffer loss in Alaska. No man
| is assured of fortune because
he is in a gold bearing area.
More poor men will return from
Alaska than rich men. Not one
in five hundred acquires wealth
in mines. The history of per
sonal experience of the great
mass of western men woulo
prove the truth of this assertion
There are as good mines this

You will naturally exclaim: There
must have been some real object 10
the warp Yes. there was; II is a war
waged by capitalists with the object
of gaining greater profits through
cheap 'nigger labor. We shall prove
this out Of their own mouths. A
meeting OF the Consolidated Gold
Fields Company of South Africa was
held at the Common Street Hotel, 10
London, May IA, 1899, and is fully re-
ported in the Financial News OF Nov.
81. Lord Harris, the chairman. stat
ed that upon the working capital Of
R2, l47, 900 the profit for the year had
been 81 ,0OG.000i But this enormous
profit doest not satisfy these people.
They want more and they me an TO
have more.
"Mr. john Hays Hammond, eDgin-
eer OF the company, said in his speech
that he estimated that after the war
they would increase their profit to ae,-
100000. So this single company stands
to make over a million year profit
by the war. This is the real reason
why the wsr was inevitable Do not
think that this means splendid open
ing for British labor; it means nothing
of the kind. The plan is TO apply as
little British labor as possible, and to
reduce the wages of native labor TO
the smallest pittsnce. These men do
not conceal it. Mr.. Hammond said:
There ought 10 be no difficulty in OBJ
tanning $4,000 Kafirs to work the
mines.' Where does the British work.

Surely, as Americans would say in
the vernacular. there is nigger in
the woodpile." Honest Englishmen
are not ignorant OF this fact, and they
are not slow to make their knowledge
Of it public.
War for greed and war to oppress
labor is just what the conflict with
the Beers means, and in such war
the feelings Of patriotism are sadly
wrenched and in some instances fail
to stand the strain.
