bitter defeat that AT least some of h s Old
superstitions must be put aside for the

pass. Under no circumstances is he al
lowed to drive an animal along the street
without pass. He is not allowed to go
out of the country without a pass, for
which he must pay. o
The pass system, however, merely binds
the native. 1t is the system of taxation
that drives him to despairing effort bet
ter than penal servitude with hard labor.
Every hut in the country costs the owner
yearly tax of fourteen shillings. and each
native is required TO live in a kraal with at
least four huts in it. This in itself is a
burden to the raw heather. who cannot hope
to earn over twelve pounds in the year. out

But for the Christian native it is extortion.
from his heather fellows: he does not want
tc herd with them. Nevertheless he must
either do that pay for four huts.
A poll tax of five dollars year is levied
supposed 10 be especially fair because it is
levied on black and white alike.
r Ut when the wages given each are COM
- pared. it will be found that it is ten
times easier for the white man than for the
native to pay this tax. In other words, in
order to make the burden of this tax bear
equally upon both races it would be neces
sary to levy fifty dollars instead of five ten
pounds sterling instead of onel upon every
white man. Furthermore the Zulus have to
pay this tax when they are eighteen. and as
no record of births is kept among these
people, any boy who is big enough to work
is made to pay this tax, unless he can bring
evidence to prove that he is under eighteen.
But besides paying much in taxes there
is final imposition made that actually
does compel every native at some time or
other to do hard labor for some white task
master. The main highways of Natal and
the government railways are all kept in
good repair by the labor of this nation
shaved, and its men are forced at any time
to work at least six months upon the roads
at half the ruling wages for such work. Any
native in the colony is liable to be called to
this work Young men and even boys are
taken out of school and sent upon the road
Teachers, evangelists, preachers, must leave
their appointments and slave in the camps
of the road members.
Thus these people have been deprived of
their inheritance, driven into bondage, and
ground beneath the heel of their conqueror
until their only hope of deliverance would
seem to be death. If the picture is over
drawn it is because the limits of space have
prevented the marshalling of a more COM
plete and convincing an array of facts in
substantiation thereof.
The English in South Africa have the
power and they intend to keep it, of
course. South African statesmen make no
evasion of their purpose They say with
emphasis that the native must never have
the franchise, legislation must never be in
fuenced by native votes. The black Guilt
yer. caught and bound in his sleep of ig-
norance and superstition, shall never rise,

IT HE event that had driven Caruth to
seek Bristow's aid was the appearance
of man who called himself Tom Wilkins
and claimed to be brother of the de-
ceased valet
Tom wilkins was tall. well built red

small sharp eyes. He bore a general re-
scmblance to his brother James, but his
eyes had fiery CLEAN that Caruth had
never noticed in those of his late valet
Perhaps the difference came by nature and
perhaps by training: or perhaps there was
no difference, the valet having merely hid
den his soul behind discreetly down-dropped
lids. Since he had played the trick that
had led to his death, Caruth had been very
uncertain as to his real character.
But he in little doubt concerning
that of Tom wilkins. The man. he decided

CORYELL MINE ON FIRE

Fire broke out early this week in the

day when it was found impossible to
control the blaze the mine was sealed
up. all avenues to the outside being
closed tight and in this condition It
will be allowed to remain until the fire
has been smothered out, and Mr.. Cum
Minis says this process is very slow
one and he predicts that it will be
from four to five months before the
mine can be reopened.
This will naturally entail a heavy
loss on the company operating the prop
erty, but this cannot be avoided as the
process of sealing up the mine is the
only one that can be followed with auv
degree of satisfaction.
The fire was due to spontaneous com
bustion and for which no one is in any
way to blame, so it is said
