SOUTH AFRICA's DREAM FULFILLED.

The action of Natal in accepting the scheme
of South African union, despite some features
Of it which seem to discriminate against that
colony and 10 place ii at a disadvantage,
sures the consummatiOn OF the great plan which
has been more or less in view for fifty years
and which for the last two or three years has
been the foremost issue Of South African
politics. On Wednesday eight delegates two
from each colony, set out for England to lay
the draft Of a constitution officially before
the imperial Parliament and it is hoped that
the instrument will be enacted into law before
the British legislators disperse for their sum-
mer vacation. When that is done each of the
four colonial governments will appoint mem
Der of the commission which is to delimit the
legislative constituencies of the Union work
which will occupy several months, but which
it is hoped win be completed by the time the
constitution becomes effective. This latter date
viii probably be set at the first Of January
next, which will be particularly appropriate as
the tenth anniversary Of the establishment of
the Commonwealth of Australia. In the early
part of next year. then the first general election
in the South African Union will be held, and the
first parliament of the Union will assemble
within a year from the present time.
We have spoken of this Union az having been
considered for the last fifty years. At times the
plan has been for union under the British flag
ana at uLneS-as just De1ore Lne boer War-IoT
secession from the British Empire and union
under the "Vierkleur" and incidentally under
German protection. The former of these plans
has now been adopted, and the new Union will
doubtless be one of the most loyal members Of
the British Empire. 1t was just short of half
a century ago that writer in 1.-The Quarterly
Review of London, remarked that of all the
dependencies of Great Britain none had been
source of more anxiety and at times of greater
vexation than the Cape of Good Hope while,
speaking of Natal, which at that time had only
$3.50 white inhabitants to 102 105 negro na-
tives, he quoted with approval statement that
history does not present another instance in
(which so much security Of life and property
'has been enjoyed" as had been experienced by
those few c0lonists In the midst of that multi
tude of savages.

CUBA's PURCHASES FROM SPAIN.

The purchase By Cuba Of the heavy artillery
left by Spain i'll the Notifications at Havana
and elsewhere and Cuba's payment for them
form a legitimate business transaction entirely
separate from the question Of Cuba's response
bility for and assumption of a part of Spains
colonial debt. The latter subject has recently
been discussed in full in these columns and it
has been made clear that in the negotiations in
Paris in 1893 the understanding and intention
of the American commissioners were that no
part of that debt should ever be paid by
Cuba and that the Spanish commissioners and
their government reluctantly but Enthusiastically
acquiesced in that understanding. 1t is equally
clear that the way was left open for Cuba TO
purchase and pay for the Spanish artillery, and
that there was in fact an implied intimation that

GUTIERREZ PONCE
From cabegrams which have received direct
Iy from General Reyes. I can positively assure
you that his absence from the country viii ee
but temporary: that in separating himself from the
government of Colombia he was acting in accord
ance with the cons -itutiOn and laws Of the coun-
try; that General Holguin is following the same
policy as the tituar President and that the latter
while absent from the seat OF government viii
continue rendering to the nation new and important
services.
These affirmations formally belle the false news
which has recently been published by the press ot
this country in regard to the voyage OF Colomoias

agreement between the two governments on tue

Now. as the United States did not assume
sovereignty of Cuba but merely n temporary
control Of it and discharge of obligations con
cerning It, our government did not IN that
treaty make any stipulation for the purchase OF
the artillery at Havana and elsewhere. But ny
STIMULATING for the purchase of such Spanish
property in the Philippines and Guam the United
States did establish a precedent which Cuba
might appropriately follow. OF course the
stimulation in Article VIII Of the treaty by
which Spain relnquished in Cuba, as in the
PHILIPPINES. all 'immovable property" did not
refer to even the heaviest artillery. 1t appears
therefore that in purchasing and paying for
