Editorial Opinion
ENGLAND AND THE BOERS.
-om the MANCHESTER Union.

From the Manchester Union.
There is one incident of the great
war that is cause FOR qualification,
and that is the spirit shown by the
Beers, who only few years ago
were so bitterly and stubbornly op-
posed TO England and Us policy. The
present attitude of the Beers in South
Africa is splendid vindication of the
broadminded and humane course
adopted by the liberal government in
England towards the peoples of the
yanQuished South African republics.
The British imperialists were aghast
at the folly of such treatment of men
who were not only fresh from the
! carrying on Of war that had
strained the resources OF the empire.
but had been lifelong enemies of the
British power and British influence.
