TAZEWELI. VA, THURSDAY, MARCH 15. 1900

object was to obtain redress for certain
very certain grievances under which the
British residents in South Africa were
suffering. In the course of these negotl-
ations the South African Republic had,
to the knowledge of Her Majesty's gov
ernment, made considerable armaments,
and the latter had correctly taken steps
to provide corresponding reinforcements
of the British garrisons at Cape Town and
in Natal. No infringements of the rights
guaranteed by the convention had, up
to that point, taken place on tie British
side.
Suddenly, at two days notice, the
South African Republic, after issuing an
insulting ultimatum, declared war upon
Her Majesty; and the Orange Free
State, with whom there had not even
been any discussion, took simiar step.
Her Majesty's dominions were immed-
lately invaded by the two republics.
Siege was laid to three towns within the
British frontier, large portion of two
colonies were overrun with great de-
struction of property and life, and the
republics claimed to treat the inhabi-
tants of extensive portions of Her Ma
jesty's dominons as if those dominions
had been annexed to one or the other
of them. In anticipation of these oper-
ations, the South African Republic had
been accumulating for many years past
military stores on an enormous scale,
which by their character could only
have been intended for use against
Great Britain.
"Your hOnors make some observations
of negative character upon the object
for which these preparations were made.
do not think it necessary to discuss
the questions you have raised. But the
result of these preparations, carried on
with great secrecy, has been that the
British empire has been compelled to
confront an invasion which has entailed
upon the empire a coetly war and the
loss of thousands of precious lives. This
great calamity has been the penalty
Great Britain has .uffered for having OF
recent years acquitsced to the existence
of the two republics. In view OF the
use to which the two republics have put
the position which was given them, and
the calamites their unprovoked attack
have inflicted on Her Majesty's domin-
ions, Her Majesty's government can only
answer your honor's telegram by saying
they are not prepared to assent to the in
dependence either OF the South African
Republic or the Orange Free State"

Governor Taylor. Of Kentucky, has ex'
pended his personal fortune and impover.
ished himself in employing counsel and
other legitimate means to defend his title
to the position to which he was elected
last November. So, the Republicans OF
Kentucky and all over the country are en-
deavoring to raise a fund of $25,000 to
reimburse him. This is proper, for bis
action has been for the party rather than
for personal benefit.
The trend of matters in Kentucky is
more complicated than ever, and blood
shed seems inevitable. What has brought
about this lamentable state Of affairs ?
The answer can be clearly given. II has
been brought about by a high.handed
gang of political of:ce.seekers, headed by
William Goebel, who had determined TO
override the will of free people, and
steal from the Republicans the Offices to
which they were elected. A corrupt elec'
ton law had been framed for such an
emergency, and this Democratic clique
did not hesitate, for one moment, to put
it into action, let the result be what II
would. Thus has the State Of Kentucky
been disgraced. The election law now In
force in Kentucky was copied from the
Virginia election law, and we may not be
surprised, if in few more years, crisis,
equally as serious as that which now con-
fronts Kentucky, results from the glaring
frauds which are being perpetrated year
after year in Virginia. The Republicans
in Virginia only ask for honest elections
and fair and impartial count.

Berlin, March l3.-It is semi-officially
announced that when the Orange Free

willingly participate provided the es-

present, namely, the certainty that both
belligerents desired it.

New Wealth in Michigan.

AT the last last annual meeting of
the Geological Society of America,
Prof. l. C. Russell called attention to
the recent discovery that many of the
swamps and lakes in the southern pc
ninsula of Michigan are rich in calcare-
Gus mari, suitable for making Port
land cement. Although partly com
posed of shells, the Michigan mari is
principally chemical precipitate
which is still being formed. The pre-
else method of it's formation is not
yet understood. The supply is prac-
tically inexhaustible. Large cement
works have recently been constructed,
others are:in contemplation, and Prof.
Russell says that Michigan can easily
take leading place in that industry.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

An American water hyacinth which
is not infrequsn;ly an obstruction to
navigation in southern rivers has been
successfully killed on the Melpomene
canal, New Orleans, by chemical
spray.
Treatment of soil with lime has
been suggested to the Paris academy
Of science as possible remedy for
malaria, as it has been noticed that
countries having a surface rich in lime
are free from this malady.
A drill which will bore through
solid rock at the rate of 3A inches per
minute, and through a mixture of rock
and schist at the rate of 4A inches
per minute, has been at work in the
Olpa Arsberg mine district, Austria.
DR.. Michaelis, an Austrian authori-
ty on cements, considers that al mix

and granulated blast furnace Stag is
better than Portland cement alone
where structures are to be exposed to

Some old quarries of oriental ala
baster have recently been discovered
in the neighborhood of Monte Amiata,
near Siena. 1t now seems very prob

A Cleveland engineer has invented a
machine for the automatic manufac-
ture of steel balls. The machine auto
matically forms and polishes steel
balls, which are entirely spherical, at
the rate. of $4,000 day. Cubical pieces
of hot steel, each of which is to be
made into ball, are fed into the top
OF the machine, one at time.
