THE BATTLE is RAGING.
General Roberts Has Begun His March
Toward the Free State-South
Africa Afame With Battle.

LONDON, THURSDAY, Feb. s.-This
mornings news from South Africa u
OF the greatest Importance, showing,
90 II does, thai the reinforced British
columns r putting themselves In
motion and that q determined COM
bined attack upon the Beers IL APP
pareutly In progress.
The significance of the telegram an
nouncing that Lord Roberts and Lord
Kitchener have departed from Cape
Town can only be appreciated when
read In conjunction with reports from
our men on tbs extreme TANKS Of the
British lines.
In Natal General Bnller has again
crossed the Tugela, and according to
the latest accounts, was lighting bis
way to the relief Of Lsdysmith and
achieving great success
Far to the westward, on Methusn's
left, Gen. Mcdonald Is threatening
the flank Of the Boer forces At Mag
ersfontein by his posiaon at Koodoo's
Berg, on the Riet river. From this
point be could turn oronje's position,
and 90 naturally attract the Beers
toward him. ANY movement be may
make further westward will render Il
easier for Lord MethueR to push for
ward on the way to Kimberley.
In the center Of this wide field Of
war Lord Roberts, % 10 thought, ct
last feels himself strong enough to
push forward and convert the defen-
sive attitude which the British have
BEEN maintaining into an offensive
movement, directed at the heart Of
the Orange Free State. With a force
which does not number far short Of
5000 men, he has commenced bis
march upon BIoemfontein.
Az to the direction Of Roberts ad.
vance, color is given to the report
that II il by way Of oolesberg by the
fact that French's recent visit to Cape
Town was for the purpose Of urging
the Commander-in- Chief to give him
reinforcement, as be thought he
could then overwheln the Beers bold
ing that position.
1t is possible that General Roberts
may decide to leave French In front
OF the Beers at Oolesberg and strike
out to the east from the Orange river
at soms point between that stream
and the Moddsr, following the line Of
the railroad ss far " possible.
In this case OroDje's army, menaced
in front by Methuen, threatened on
one flank by Macdonald and on the
other BY Roberts, would be In great
danger.
An agency telegram states thai
Buller's further advance has beer
prevented by the Boers' heavy 1rs
from spIon Kop and Doorm Kloof,anc
that the British casualties amount Il
$50 men.
Dispatches from Boer sources Say
the British were beaten back ct Pom
Drift, while the position eventually
seized at Krsnts Kloof is OF no i'm
portance.

Tsylors Lost Opportunity.

~ - N@@A
By falling to set wisely in . trying
situation where his duty should have
been plain to him W. 8. Taylor, of
Kentucky, missed the opportunity to
have greatness thrust upon him. In
the opinion Of the majority Of the
people both in Kentucky and beyond
the boundaries OF that state Taylor
was entitled to the ONCE Of governor.
A partisan legislature was determined
to unseat him and give the office to
another. This action was unjust, but
it was in accord with the forms Of
law, and therefore lAw-abiding cius
Gems were bound to submit to it. Had
Taylor done so, be would have en-
ioyed the respect and sympathy Of
the people, who would have been
quick to resent the injustice when
given an opportunity to do 30. That
opportunity would have come next
fall, when Taylor could have appealed
from the legislature to the people
with entire confidence OF 9 favorable
decision. Goebel's death leaves the
Democratic Lieutenant Governor In
office az governor for the time being,
but that official cannot serve ont the
full term. A new election must be
held next November to ill the vacan-
cy created by the death OF Goebel.
Taylor, however, is now In no posi-
ton to take advantage OF the situa-
ton. By turning the militia against the
legislature be forfeited all sympathy
for himself. Under the cIrcumstances,i IL
is not likely that his party win even
permit him to become the nominee.
Taylor by his fl-copsidersd acts has
deprived himself OF the opportunity
to ecure q popular indorsement thai
would make him at once . mar Of
note throughout the nation.
Fortunately the situation In Ken
lucky Is clearing. Taylor can hardly
refuse to accept the agreement made
by Republican and Democratic lead.
