CAPE TOWN. Dec. AT the st. An

Sir Gordon Sprigg, speaking on the state
OF the Cape Colony, said the new arrange

was responsible for maintaining in the
field the forces that were operating in the
Cape, involved responsibility for the total
expenditure of supporting $4,000 town

Sir Gordon said that under the new ar
rangement the Beers would be systemat-

their returning At the same time means
would be taken to prevent the local Dutch
from joining or otherwise aiding the
Beers The forces in the field would move

Working in Harmony,
The Premier said that absolutely no
friction ever existed between the Cape
Government, Lord Miner. Lord Kitch-
ener, and the Imperial Government. All
we're working together in the most per-
feet harmony. As soon as the war was
over in the colony Parliament would as

Programme for Future
Regarding the future settlement of at
fairs, Sir Gordon said many things had
been decided. but he was unable to indi-
cate the details at the present time The
imperial Government would publish the
details when il was desirable to do so.
The first thing, however. would be a
customs conference of all the States and
Colonies. Confederation, the Premier de-
ciared, must come. but it would take
considerable time for its fruition The
Cape Colony would take leading position
in Federated South Africa.
The Financial Situation.
Referring TO the finances Of the colony.
Sir Gordon said there was no reason for
dismzy. Inc ordinary expenditure was
more than balanced by the revenue The
burden of the debt to meet the war ex-
pendituTe was unavoidable. but the future
prospects were of the rosiest character

The blood may be in bad condition,

symptoms in such cases being a variable

weakness and nervousness, loss of flesh
and general rundown condition of the

lost its nutritive qualities, has become thin

Thf UNIVERSITY AND THE COMMON
 SCHOOLS

The authorities of the Territorial University are doing much for the public school system by their efforts to work in harmony with the public schools. At the institute in Tempe last week three members of the Uni versity faculty were in constant at tendance. They took an active part in the proceedings and their efforts to help make the institute a success met with hearty appreciation on the part of the teachers from all sections of the Territory This is as it should be. It is not many years since the members of the University seemed to hold them selves aloof from those composing the public school system, This may have been partly because the University de- rives it's support indirectly from the people through the national govern ment. Be that as it may, it is all changed now, and under the present administration every effort is made 10 keep the university ln close touch With the public schools.
 This does good both ways. The pub lie school teachers are encouraged and aided in their efforts towards the inn provement of the schools, and the Uni versity is brought into close contact with it's patrons, the public. No other agency can do as much as the public school teachers toward diffusing in- formation among the general public concerning the work and plans of the University, and the opportunities there offered for obtaining superior edu- cation. The authorities of the Univer- sity are to be commended for their eff forts in this direction and are to be congratulated on the success of those efforts as shown by the hearty good will manifested toward the University at the recent institute. .-Star.
Cochise review., 1901-01-12

Gen. Miles is being importuned by many of his best friends not to make any reply to the charges against him made by ex-Secretary Alger in connec- tion with the reopening of the embalm- ed beef army scandal, or at least not to reply while he is on the active list of the army. Gen. Miles is rather inclin- ed to answer the charges in the same public manner Mr. Alger has made them, and he claims to have some new facts, but says he has not fully decided to do so. It is said that the President regretsi the publications of his former Secretary of War and that he would be blessed if Gen. Miles would ignore the whole business, but the statement that he would remove Gen. Miles from the command of the army, if he answers, is doubtless an eqaggeration.
