PRESIDENT KRUGER.

! Stephen ]. Paul Kruger, whose re-
mains were buried Friday in Pre-
toria, the capital of the country he so
long governed, and over whose body
the last mortuary honors were paid,
was a remarkable man. He was born
in Cape Colony October TO- 1925, and so
at his death was a little over seventy
nine years of age. AS a youth he took
part with his parents in the Great
Trek" or the emigration across the
Vaal River, which was the beginning
of the Transvaal, or South African Re
public. From that time on he was a
leader in the rough sports and adven-
lures of the frontier life he led, and in
the development and government of the
Transvaal being its president from
1882 until it became a British Crown
Colony. He was a man of very great
ability, there can be no doubt, UNDER
standing his countrymen thoroughly,
their prejudices and weaknesses. He
was also a man of very great religi-
Gus ferVor and profession, a preacher
and religious leader and a constant
reader of the scriptures from which he
drew much of his hortatory material
and to which he referred for proof to
his countrymen of the wisdom of the
course he advocated.
Whether there was not in his make
up, in combination with his acknowl-
edged ability, certain charlatanism
of shrewd yielding to his cOuntrymen's
prejudices for his own personal, polit-
ical and material gain, and an itching
PALM amounting almost to avarice, are
allegations which have been made. But
as much of the description and charac-
terization of him have come through
British and therefore perhaps not un-
prejudiced sources, and at a time
when partisan spirit was bitter and
rancorous, it is probably perhaps not
safe to accept these allegations too un-
hesitatingly. Yet there seems TO be
much evidence to indicate that perhaps
long leadership and power, had bred IN
him a neglect of nice scruples. and
feeling that his desires made any act
necessary to accomplish them, ethically
defensible. No doubt he will go down
on the romantic side of history with
a halo of glory a hero of a lost cause.
