West Indies to Go Next.

London, Nov 19.-The Globe this af-
ternoon discusses the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty in it's usual ultra-jingo tone. It
says: Unless Lord Pauncefote and
Secretary Hay have strictly observed
the principle of quid pro quo the treaty
is far more likely to impair than to
strengthen friendliness. If British rights
on the isthmus have been abandoned
without a tangible equivalent, it will
not be long before Great Britain is in
vited to surrender the West Indies and
even Canada, as peace offerings to
American chauvinism.''

SITUATION IN NATAL.
Problem in South Africa Is a Compli-
Gated One.


New York, Nov 19--Mail advices from
Natal to the London Times and New
York Times say the problem in South
Africa is a complicated one, and cannot
be grasped by reading the neWspa pers.
The correspondent says the British must
be made to understand that they have
to deal with a peculiar people, whose
very elementary education has been di-
rected by their INSCRIPTIONS and am
bilious leaders to imbuing them with
the belief, that as the chosen of God,
they are called to the dominion of South
Africa They are taught that the
Amalel<ite Britisher is to be driven into
the sea, leaving them the blacks as their
hewerS of wood and drawers of water
as in the days of the great trek
In Natal, says the correspondent the
people are either thoroughly loyal or
thorough rebels. but in Cape Colony
thousands of Afrikanders are on the
fence.
There has been too much sentimental
humbug, declares the correspondent He
insists that the inha bitants must be
thoroughly smashed and made to feel
that they are Smashed for the sake
of the future quiet of South Africa
Then will be the time for the British to
be generous After peace comes the
burghers can be handled easily, if the
scales of justice are evenly held
