This Is the Ultimatum of Pres
idents Kruger and Steyn
of South Africa
CAPE DUTCH HAVE RISEN NJ Revolt
Censor Again at Work
and News of the War Is
Very Meagre.

During the past week the British
censor has been working full time
and very little Wal news Of import
ance has been allowed to reach the
outside world.
The report last week that the
Beers were preparing to sue for
peace was without foundation. Pres
ident Kruger announces that be is
willing to negotiate terms OF peace
on the basis of actual independence
for the Republics, but no other
proposition will be entertained. He
advises his men to stand firm and
fight to the end, and these are also
the sentiments of President Steyn of
the Orange Free State.
The most startling news Of the
week is the announcement OF the up
rising of the Cape Dutch. Over
5000 of these are now under arms
and they are being rapidly Joined by
the people of neighboring provinces.
Lord Roberts forces are still at a
standstill waiting for supplies and
reinforcements, while the Beers con-
tinue to concentrate to oppose the
British main army.

NAUGHTY SAN FRA NCISCO.

In a sermon last Sunday at st.
Mary's Cathedral, San Francisco,
Rev. Father Yorke described the
coast metropolis as "the most i'm
moral city in all the world" He in
sisted that California is behind the
rest of the Union in the observance
of morality, and that society there is
far more lenient with violators OF the
moral code than anywhere else in
the civilized world.
Continuing the reverend gentle
man said: SIN other communities
the social evil is hidden away. The
world, which holds as a first princi-
pie that all men will fall tries to save
children as long as possible from the
inevitable. 1t will not permit vice
to intrude itself on those who do not
seek it. If it can not extirpate it, at
least it hides it away.
"We have no such squeamishness
in San Francisco. The faring gates
Of hell swing wide open on our most
public theroughfares. The open
swamp Of vice creeps round our
churches and our schools. Our
newspapers surpass in unblushing
boldness the newspapers of any other
part of the habitable globe. There
is some excuse for those visitors who
make only a short stay here and see
only the most obvious features of our
town. and who go away declaring
that San Francisco is the worst city
in the world and the very vestibule
of the Internal regions.

In the House on Monday Repre-
sentative Devries of California intro
duced a joint resolution providing
for the repeal of the tariff duties on
printing paper and the material from
which it is manufactured. That a
distinction has been made in the case
of paper and a separate bill intro
duced to relieve newspaper publish
ers from the power of trusts, while
the rest of the population is left to
the tender mercies of the monopolies.
is an injustice that will be resented
by the people at large. If it is the
proper step to remove the tariff duty
on white paper in order to destroy
the power of the paper trust, then it
is equally proper to remove the duty
on all other articles controlled by
trusts, and a general bill to that
effect is what the interests of the
country demand. Glass legislation
is contrary to the spirit of our insti-
tutions and should be discouraged.

Congressman Tswney Of Minneso-
ia, q dyed-in- the-wool Republican,
has volunteered the information that
the Puerto Rican bill as passed by
the House last week, was prepared
by Secretary of War Root, and he
gives President Mckinley as his q
thority for the statement. The SEN
timent against this measure has de-
veloped such strength throughout
the country that the Republicans are
hesitating to push it through the
Senate. A radical amendment to
the bill has been offered BY Senator
Davis providing that the tariff of the
United States be applied to Porto
Rico upon foreign imports, but allow
ing absolute free trade between the
United States and Porto Rico.

Negotiations looking to the making
of a reciprocity treaty between the
