WOES OF THE B0EKS.
VIEWS OF A HIGH OFFICIAL OF THE
TRANSVAAL GOVERNMENT.
Declare That Grent Britain Seeks to
Kxlcrmiiintc the Afrikander Race
nnd 1'ftMiPb It Rich Territory.
After Plunder, He Say.
(Special Correspondence.
Pketopja, South African Republic,
Jnly 3. There now hangs over the
Transvaal an ominous warcloud, which,
beforo this letter reaches its American
readers, may break into a fierce and
sanguinary storm of dnm-dum bullets
and uir.Kazine missiles or may, it is
devoutly to be hoped, be dissipated in
thin air. It certainly looks dark enough
jnht now, and we are all np on our toes
in anticipation that something is going
to happen. The Boers, who are fighters
as well as farmers, are in an ugly mood
and wonld fight at the drop of the hat
if "Oom Paul" gave the word. Presi
dent Kruger's firm attitude in relation
to the franchise question, which is be
ing pushed by the British uitlanders,
has given the sturdy bnrghers backbone
and courage, if such were needed, and
they will follow his lead, no matter
how fierce the fray.
Referring to the arrangement for a
conference between President Eruger
and Sir Alfred Milner. representing
Great Britain, a prominent official of
the Transvaal government, who prefers
that his name should not be quoted,
said to me.
"My opinion in brief is that on the
part of the imperial (British) authori
ties the conference was arranged simply
as a trap to see if Kruger could be made
to put his foot in it and give an excuse
for making war on him. For years the
great Rhodes-Chamberlain combina
tion, assisted by violent jingoes here,
have fomented the war spirit in- the
minds of the English people till they
are now on the point of forgetting their
lofty traditions of fairness.
"I do not wish to assert that we have
not many grievous errors of adminis
tration to amend, but I do contend that
Great Britain is now, upon a fraudulent
basis, forcing upon ns n war of extermi
nation, a war in which they hope to an
nihilate us. It is not reform, but
plunder, that the coterie behind all this
fire and smoke are seeking. The Rhodes
group design to collar the gold mines,
for they know that war will close every
one of them and that the machinery
will be ruined and as a result the stocks
will collapse and can be gathered in by
a big trust combination. With these so
secured the tottering Chartered com
pany can be rehabilitated.
"Then there is Chamberlain, who
wants to wipe out the Jameson raid
stain by a successful war. Lastly, we
have against ns tho fanaticism of a
class of Englishmen who want to get
sqnare on Majnba and Doornkop, ignor
ing the justice of the cause for which
tho Boers fought and won those battles.
"The crisis may not come," conclud
ed the official, with much spirit, "but
if it does come we aro determined to
TTPCS OF BOEIIS.
stand up like men. If we fight, we shall
fight for our existence. It will be either
tho Marathon or the Thermopylae of the
Afrikander race. "
The official who courteously granted
mo this interview is in close tench with
President Kroger and voices the senti
ments of tho venerable statesman.
While the Boers are tenacious as to
what they regard as their rights, the
more fair minded among them admit
that their government has not always
justly treated the foreign element,
which has been almost wholly responsi
ble for the development of the country's
vast resources.
The stolid Boers cling to their old,
archaic customs, and their system of
government is cindeaud unprogressive.
frequently unjnt and sometimes even
'barbaric in its operations. This is par
ticularly notn-eame in their prison sys
tem. The custom of flogging prisoners
is still in vogue. When an offender is
taken to prison, he mnst begin the term
of sentence with 40 lashes, more or 1pw,
according to the enormity of tlie oltense.
and the iame severe punishment is in
flicted before ho is given his discharge
at thu expiration of the sentence. Thns
the prisoners are apt to look with actual
dread upon the day on which they will
regain their liberty. It is related that
ono prisoner, dreading the lash, said to
the keeper when brought np for dis
charge at the expiration of his term:
"Why, sir, yon have made a mistake.
I have yet another year to serve."
Whether the flogging was postponed
and ho was allowed to remain in prison
another year deponent saith not.

tie Italian officials ou the sceuu of the
Louisiana lyiiclungs believed that four
out of thu live men lynched were Ital
ian citizens in thu fullest scu.se. The
reports Were not final. Marquis Ro
mano ot the Italian embassy started to
Louisiana as consul to .New Orleans
owing to the absence of the consul on
leave, and in that capacity he will go to
Tellulah and make a careful investiga
tion. The Italian authorities also took note
of the statement attributed to Dr.
Hodges, whos; assault led up to the
lynching. This states that after the as
sault he walked away, indicating that
the offense wa.s not of a character to
warrant the lynching of five perso-is.

liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes
that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to go often during the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordi

realized. It stands the highest for
its wonderful cures of the most dis

We have yet to bear of a rider
of the COLUMBIA BEVEL-GEAR
CHAINLESS who would willingly
give it up for any other wheel.
Direct testimony is always tetter than
hearsav evidence. If yoa desire to know
atont evel-Gear Chainless ticycles, do cot
ask a Ferson who has never rliien cne, or
is in any way connected with a mancfac
tnrcr who does not make them. Inqnlre ot
riders of the ColnraDia sevei-eear cnata
lcss. There are thousands of them through
out the country. They are to te met in
every city, in almost every town of the
United States so popular has the machine
become in the short space of a year and a
half. There are reasons for this. The
Chainless is easier to take care of than the
chain wheel. It has a loneer life. Every
onnce of power applied to tne pedals is made
effective. This last advantage over chain
driven wheels is apparent the moment yon
mount the machine. The Chainless seems to
possess an activity and life of its own.
You notice it in startinc. stopplnc, back
peddlinc, riiinc on levels, and especially
in ascendir.fr grades.
