THE BoER SYMPATHY.

ASTORIA. Jan. 2. Isas-Editor AS
tor4an: Do you not make out the
Americans somewhat more contempt
ible Than they rally are. when you
say that thalr rising sympathy for
the Beers Is due TO the SUCCESS Of the
African republics?
Americans very generally believe
that England made an unwawantable
demand Of the Beers, and attempted to
assume. for speculative purposes. a
sovereignty that she had definitely
rallnqulshed to the Transyaal. This
impcriallstlc policy they have consld-
cred wrong. and cannot help applaud
ing when the Beers maintain their
rights.
The prospect OF an independent
African republic, or federation of
states. like our own, is also agreeable
to Anne, leans, and promises 10 restrail
the European despo.s who assume 70
divide the earth among them. This
Will make the world republican rather
than Imperial, and merits the support
Of America, which at least has been
the bulwark OF republican govern
mcnt. H. S. LYMAN.
Why contemplate? II is certainly
fact that at least the Manifestations
Of American sympathy for the Boer
cause grows with each Boer victory,
and 1t is doubtless true that those VIC
tories are responsible not only for the
manifestations, but for much Of the
sympathy itself. While some Of this
sympathy is Of the unreasoning sort
tlrat looks neither for the true causes
nor after effects, 1t cannot be termed
contemplate however unwise We may
deem 1t.
Many Americans, too, while inclined
30 favor the burghers in the diplo-
matte contest with Chamberlain, judg-
ed the resort to arms to be the ver-
lest folly. The successes Of their arm
les In withstanding the British at
tacks tend to vindicate the Judgment
of the Boer leaders. thus reclhimlng
an American sympathy that had gone
astray.
Mr. Lyman surely does not term
England "despotic" government. No
government in the world is more con-
trolled by the popular will

TRANsvAAL Loss IN LIFE.

Moralsts are discussing the terrible
loss of life brought about by the Trans
vatd war, Yet here life is sacrificed for
a purpose-for an honest principle. 1t
We're better to preach against the need
less sacrifice of life. Thousands of
people succumb to ailments which
might easily have been checked in the
beginning. Dyspepsia carries of more
people than are killed In war; The
use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
would save many lives. Constipation
may seem little thing. but it invarl-
ably develops into something worse,
and the longer it is allowed to run, the
harder It is 10 cure. The Bitters cures
indigestion, constipation. dyspepsia and
blliousness, naturally and permanently,
good for everybody.

TRAMWAYS SIIIT-

In the bill filed yesterday by the
Honolulu Rapid Transit & Land Com
pany against the Hawaiian Tramways
Company it is set out that the plain
tin company is a corporation organized
by under the laws of Hawaii to sue
coed to all the rights and privileges
given by Act 60 of the Legislature of
1885, to G. G. Ballentyne, and that It
has succeeded to and acquired all these
rights; that under authority of this
act it located its line of double track
on King street from Nuuanu river 10
Victoria street, and that the location
was approved by the Minister of the
Interior with the consent and approval
of the Executive Council: that after
wards in pursuance of this location it
laid sections of its tracks along the line
located on that part of King street de-
signated; that afterwards on January
2, 1900, certain persons purporting to
act as the agents and servants of the
Hawaiian Tramways Company, a for
eign corporation, and for and as the
company tore up certain portions of the
tracks of the plaintiff company and
proceeded to lay double tracks for the
tramways company that the tramways
company has no right or authority 10
lay or operate other than a single track
railway with the necessary turnouts
and switches, and that If it lays a dou-
BILE track ii will prevent the plaintiff
company from exercising the rights and
privileges granted to II bv the LePisla-
ture. The plaintiff asserts that if the
defendant is permitted to proceed with
the work ii has commenced the plain
tiff company will be irreparably injur-
ed; that II Is without remedy at law
and therefore seeks the aid of a court
of equity. 1t prays that the defend
ant may be cited to appear and show
cause why it should not be enjoined
from proceeding further with the in
iuries complained Of and that the rights
of the plaintiff in the premises may be
determined Judge Stanley issued a

SUGAR WAR LOOKED FOR
FAILURE OF THE TRUSTS
FACTOR PLAN.
After January I, All Sugar Mill will
be Sold on a Competition Basis and
on Its Merits.

CHICAGO, December PA formal
announcement of the end of the fac
tor plan Of selling sugar, which means
that the sugar war will be on harder
than ever after January LIST, is con-
tanned in tho current number of the
Modern Grocer published in Chicago
today. The news is that the equality
plan will be abolished on January list.
and that thereafter all sugar will be
sold on competitive basis and on it's
merits"
The abandonment of the card agree
ment comes after a years futile at
tempt ON the part of the sugar trust to
get the aid Of the wholesale grocers in
driving the Independent refiners out of
existence. a month ago a committee
from the Wholesale grocers went to
| New York at the invitation of the
HaVelneyars TO make a final effort at
an understanding. The wholesalers
were to get their sugar with an addi-
tional rebate if they signed an agree
nent TO buy only trust sugar The con-
ference like former ones, came to no.
thing, and it is supposed that the SUI
gar trust officials gave up in disgust.
In spite of the fact that it will now
be go-as-yUu- please race between the
Independent lefners and the trust for
the sugar trade, Chicago wholesalers
do not looN for any great cut in prices
on the part oc the refners.
