PRESIDENT KnTGEa OBSTINATE.

According to the interview with Presi-
dent Kruger, published in our dispatches
yesterday the Beers have no intention Of
surrendering as long as they can keep
500 armed men in the field In other
words, Il seems 70 be their purpose 10
inaugurate a guerilla warfare. They could
not do a more unwise thing.
It is probable that if the actual situa-
lion were placed before the people Of the
Transvaal. and the question put 10 them
as 20 whether or not they were willing TO
surrender. leaving it to the British gov
eminent TO fix the terms. the great ma
jority would answer in the affirmative
The impression gained from the dis
patches is that they regard their cause
as hopelessly lost. Their generals have
not been able to get them 10 make "a
stand against the British recently, not be-
cause tLey lacked courage, but simply
because they saw thar nothing was to
be &; ined by further resistance. No
doubt thousands of them will follow their
officers to the Lydenburg district and
VIII obey orders as long as the Transyaal
government keeps up show of oppos-
ton. but they will nor do so with the
same spirit hat stirred them to action
at the beginning Of the war
There would be some reason in keep
ing up a hopeless fight if it were believed
that British rule would be unjust and
harsh. There is nothing, however, to jus
tfv suel. Il belief Mr.. Chamberlain said
some time ago. that in the event of Brit
ish success, the people of the Transvaal
and the Orange Free State would be ac-
corded the same degree of liberty that
the Canadians and Australians had. They
could hardly expect more under the cir
cumstances. They would feel deeply, of
course, their less of independence, but
the great majority would scarcely realize
that a change had taken place. The
Beers would have control OF all local af-
fairs, just as they do now.
The new spapers of Canada have been
giving a great deal of attention to this
matter recently. The Toronto Globe, for
instance, after discussing the opportuni-
ties he South African communities have
for Advancement expresses the hope that
"the fruits of this war in South Africa,
now happily almost closed. may be peace
and securiy; that some of US may live to
see there q confederation as free, as unit
ell and as prosperous as our own, and
that, by wise and liberal dealing, the
race problem may there be as happily
solved as il has been in a country where
in q French-Canadian has risen to the
highest position in the gift Of the people"
1t is safe 10 say that if the Beers were
to surrender Internationally they would
have very little cause TO complain of the
treatment they received. There has been
nothing in the South African dispatches
indicating hat the British soldiers enter
tain a feeling of bitterness against the
Beers. In fact, if the British government
were TO impose harsh terms on the Beers
it would be condemned by the entire civil
lied world
