The action of Portugal in consenting
to the transfer of English troops and
munitions of war across her territory
from the seaport of Beira to Rhodesia in
South Africa. north of the Transvaal,
thus giving England an opportunity to
get in the rear of the Beers, has stirred
up anew the press of Europe. They
characterize it as gross breach of
neutrality. which other neutral govern
ments should take note of. Portugal's
excuse is an old treaty which permitted
the trans-shipment of troops to fight the
negro tribes of the interior.

NEW BOER TACTICS.

The successful operations of the Beers
during the past two weeks bring 70 light
another plan of warfare in which the
Beers are likely to prove themselves the
superiors of the British. knowing the
vast superiority of the English in point
of numbers the little republics are COM
PEELED to resort to every means open TO
them to offset such preponderance.
They seem to have divided their forces
into comparatively small commands.
mounted on hardy native ponies, and
these moving quickly from point to
point have been able tn pick up delach-
ments of English troops At various places
almost in sight of the main British army
at Bloemfoptein, and hurry them away
before assistance can come.
Lord Roberts must keep his lines Of
communication open, and to do this he
must station small patrolling forces
along the thousands of miles of railway
in his rear. The guarding forces can in
no case be great in numbers, and it IS
likely that many of them will find their
way to the the Pretoria race-track, if the
Beers persist in their present methods.
The total captures by the Beers during
the past ten days have reached nearly
a thousand. while about fifty of their
own men have fallen into British hands.
The effect of these BOer successes has
been apparent upon those Free Skaters
who were inclined to give up the fight
after the occupation of Boemfontein and
90 back to their farms. They are re-
ported again 20 have Joined their com
mandos in large numbers, and are now
assisting in the raidng operations.
Ine inactivity of Lord Roberts during
the past few weeks is attributed to tho
lack of horses and the fact that the
soldiers must be provided with suitable
clothing for the winter that is now clos'
upon them. These needs are being tillet
as rapidly a. possible, but it is though
that the main advance can not take place
until June. In the mean time the &C
tivities of the Beers will continue, and i
success accompanies them as it recent,
has, the English losses in captured vii
mount to higher figures than in battle.

OUR GROWING SUMMER BUSINESS.

\ number of state papers have taken
umbrage at an editorial which recently
appeared in the Burlington News de-
claring that it was useless to advertise
Vermont as a summer resort as long as
the prohibitory law remained on our
statute books. The News asserts that
capitalists will not build hotels and that
without hotels summer guests will keep
away, even if the law itself Is not sutii-
cient to keep them away. The News's
opponents appear to have overlooked the
very simple and conclusive retort that
the number OF summer visitors to Yer
mont has Increased rapidly during recent
years, and that old hotels have had to
enlarge greatly and many new ones have
been erected-and by outside capital at
that.
