Crown Colony System,

A London special to the New Yorl
says: The British government, and par
ticularly its policy in the South African
was, is being severely criticised by the
English people. The leading papers are
almost unanamous in.ciiticizing the wal
policy in expressing the Boers.
The Times, Standard and Daily Mai
are among the leading papers which
take this stand.
Five hundred public meetings will be
held in Great Britain during this month
and November to protest against the
policy of the government. The object Of
these meetings will be to protest against
introducing the crown colony system in
the South African republics after the
conclusion of the war.
