in that part Of the state where fruit

Flight of kruger.
London, Sept. 1.-THE following dis
patch has been received at the war office
from Lord Roberts:
"Machadodorp, Sept. 13.-Kruger has
fed to Lourenco Marques. and Botha has
heen obliged to give over the command of
the Boer army temporarily to Niljoen on
account of i'll health. In consequence of
this | have circulated a proclamation as
follows:
1.-The late President Kruger, with
RcitZ and the archives of the South Afri-
ran Republic, has crossed the Portuguese
frontier and arrived at Lourenco Mar
ques, with the view of sailing for Eu-
rope at an early date. Kruger has form
ally resigned the position which he held
ms president of the South African Repub-
lie, thus severing his official connection
with the Transvaal. Kruger's action
shows how hopeless. in his opinion, is the
war which has now been carried on for
nearly year, and his desertion of the
Bocr cause should make it clear to his
fellow burghers that it is useless to con
tinue the struggle any longer.
1T is probably unknown to the inhab.
itants of the Transvaal and Orange Riv-
or Colony that nearly $4,000 of their fel.
low subjects are now prisoners of war.
not one of whom will be released until
those now under arms against us surren.

1.-THE burghers must be cognizant OF
the fact that no intervention in their be
half can come from any of the great pow
rrs and, further, that the British empire
is determined to complete the work which
has already cost so many lives and carry
to conclusion the war declared again.

Brynn.s skill MS n propi,et.

Mr. Bryan has resumed mis- stumpip-
tours, and, ms usual. his speeches arp
made UP largely Of predictions. SOP!
of his former predictions make into.
esting reading nowadays. In 1896 IT.
prophesied as follows: "Refare tn

dent than they are now, ana tha
people, then ready to demand an Amer
lean financial policy for the American
people, will Join with us in the i'm

limited coinage of silver at the present

Mr.. Bryan certainly has a unique
record. The only prediction he ever
made that was fulfilled was the pre-.
diction that he would be defeated il

From Dover Index.
In the present campaign there is n
class of men who are. in very apt
sense, political waits. They are ramb-
ling around among platforms and cam
didates, looking fer something to Which
they can tie. Failing to find this. these
men, many of them declare they will
not vote at all Sooner than support Il
candidate who stands on an unaccept
able platform, Or Il strong platform upon
which stands weel-keed candidate,
they declare their collSciences would be
best appeased by refraining from vot-
ing.
This conclusion, we think, is an en-
roneous one. Our institutions are Of II
character that makes the duty of voting
Imperative. This government being
founded on the principle that the peo-
pie shall rule, it becomes the duty Of
the people to rule. No man, we insist,
can shirk this duty.
But some voters says, "There is no
way that seems best. This candidate is
Just as bad as that" or, ''These party
declarations are as unacceptable ms

himself in this predicament. There is,
however, always a choice between two
