WHAT CORPORA TONS HAVE DONE
 FOR AFRICA

From authentic sources it is now announced that those British -workihgmen who have been patriot ic' enough to volunteer their services to help establish the supremacy of the English government in South Africa have been rewarded for their pains by being afforded the opportunity of com- peting with the Kaffirs for the chance to earn enough to keep them from starving in the land they hope to conquer.
 According to the latest account. there is such a surplus of white labor in the Transvaal that it is almost im- possible to obtain even the hardest and most humble positions, and many English workingmen who had gone to South Africa In the hope of finding bet ter wages and conditions of labor are now in the direst want
 The importation of Asiatics had much to do with bringing about this state of affairs, and it seems rather ironical to read that the Transvaal Chinese Association has donated $500 towards a fund created by the citizens of Pretoria for the relief of the unem- ployed. Such is the case. nevertheless, and this gift causes the "Transvaaler, local newspaper, to observe:
 "This emphasizes the deplorable pass to which the superior race has come in this country on which so much blood and treasure has been spent fourishing. Is 1t case of the sur vival of the Attest? If so, what are the conditions and the causes that make Asiatics and Kaffirs fit and the men of European races unfit? Are Wa affording advantages to the former that are denied to the latter? It only needs some handsome contribution from a Kaffir association towards poor whites. and another from an Indian associa- tion to complete the disgrace and the irony of fate"
 The unfortunate Europeans have grasped at every job that could be se- cured, even taking the places of the native blacks on the railroad section gangs and working like slaves in orde., to demonstrate their superior labor power, to retain their miserable posi- tions. When it became known that the ai% n~1 ing the advisability of replacing the natives employed as scavengers with whites, hundreds of applications were made for the jobs and within few days the Kaffirs were dismissed and Europeans put in their places.
 A special city committee also recom- mended that fifteen native drivers on the refuse removal wagons be dis missed and fifteen Europeans engaged in their places at the same rate of wag- es, viz, $22.5O per month each; that II native drivers on the pail wagons be replaced by European drivers at $2O per month, this amount being at the same rate as the native drivers had been receiving. This. however. was too much for the majority of the coun- cillors, some of whom declared that the work was too degrading for the whites, and although 1t was stated that there had been over 100 applications for the jobs, the recommendation was lost.
 The above facts illustrate what far reaching benefits have been insured to "glorious" conquest of the Transvaal.- N. Y. Call.

McVay. who was recently acquitted of
the charge of killing Ben A. Hardy.
Hardy shot John McVay at Monticeno
several months before the killing
Upon investigation it was found that
the person who shot McVay Sunday
had evidently been seereted for some
time behind a small bush near the
McVay residence The bush is only
about 20 feet from the window through
which the shot passed. Bloodhounds
We're taken TO the bush and they fol-
lowed a trail up the main road for
about 40 feet and then went down
side road about geo feet, where they
lost the trail at a tree. II is sup

horse. Ii has been reported that three
horsemen were seen riding toward
Monticello after the shooting Sunday
night, and many believe that the trio
had been implicated in the killing OF
MeVay and that they lived at Month
cello.
McVay informed Sheriff Philpot
shortly after he had been shot that
he had recently visited Monticello,
and that while there friend advised
him not to stay on account of the
feeling over the decision in the case
of John McVay.
1t was reported that an automobile
had been seen in front of the Nc
Way house shortly before the shoot
ing, but the theory that the assail-
ant probably used that machine was
dropped Monday, when it was learned
that the machine belonged to party
of society people from Pine Bluff who
had been out riding and stopped to re-
pair their machine.

was with him in the room at the time
