GOES TO RULE SOUTH AFRICA.
Lord Selborne. Who Succeeds Miner.
Abiest Man in British Cabinet.

| London. March 6.-Lord Selborne's
| appointment to succeed Lord Miner as
| high commissioner for South Africa is
| impressive as 4 token of the govern
! ment's concern for the state of affairs
| in that region. The strain Of the situ
| alton has become SO great that Lord
Miners strength has become unequal
to it. and the cabinet has given up is
most resourcefIl member to meet the
crisis. Lord Selborne became a
minister of the rrOw1 in 1900. He was
then comparatively CnknCWn and sus-
pected of limited ability. His career
since then has been {. brilliant success
shining with peculiar brightness beside
| the dull records of the majority Of his
colleagues.
Just now the cabinet can i'll afford 10
lose any of its collective prestige; but
South Africa cannot be put aside. The
Beers. compactiy organized under the
leadership botn Of Dewet and Deiarcy.
have succeeded N bringing practically
the whole Dutcn in the nation to Their
standard. Their manipulation Of the
political and religious forces is such
that this unity il Likely 10 he strength
ened rather than weakened as time
goes on.
1t is we'll known 10 the government
that the party mus formed Will stani

The principal of .hese is that tn"
Afrikander commonwealth must he tn"
arbiter Of its nNn destiny and not be
swamped by The vot" of the cities. ON
the other hand. the British element. at
least the official element. demands an
impartial distribution Of political
power with whatever adjustment Of
the administrative center of gravity
this entails.
This means that the Beers must sur
render all Their oligarChic notions ami
all their notions of acreage instead OF
men as the bass of representative gov
ernment. Before this surrender will b.

In few minutes every available
officer was in the South End or Low.
er Woods" as it has been called gen.
orally. They divided into pairs and
began systematic search Of the
houses occupied by negroes in that
section. Deputy Constable Pavito and
Deputy Sheriff Reid Tevls formed one
pair. AS they reached enc hut Peyito
rode in front and Tevis behind. A
rough bind to a window was thrown
open and another shot rang out, and
the bullet went through PevitO'S
heart. He fell just in front Of his
boy, who was accompanying him. The
negro, Powell, then ran to the back
door to make his escape. He was
commanded to stop by TeVis, but in
stead of obeying he raised both PTS
tolls again to fire at Teyis. The lat
ter was too quick, and shot him
squarcly through the head. His hands
went up, and the fourth shot was fired
aimlcssly into the air, and the negro
was dead.
