Such close contact with barhar-

NOWHERE TO TREK.

It has been the custom of the
Boers ever since the British occu-
pation of South Africa, to trek far-
ther into the wilderness when the
government did not suit them.
Thus they trekked into the Orange
Free State, Natal and finally the
Transvaal in order to escape British
law, "particularly against slavery.
Every difficulty Britain h as had on
the Transvaal frontier since the last
Boer war was caused by incursions
into neighboring territory which
British troops had to repress in or-
der to prevent war with the na-
tives. The reason is that the Boers
are a pastoral. people who count

- their wealth in flocks and herds,
and wish to occupy great areas as
grazing ground. They are not
farmers but cattlemen. They are
also typical frontiersmen who like
to keep ahead of civihzation and
avoid being crowded by it or its in-
stitutions and restraints. When
civilization catches up with them,
they move on intothe wilderness
and take the frontier with them,

But now the Boers have no
wilderness into which they can trek
to pasture their flocks and herds
and make slave raids among the
natives. Their move into
Transvaal was caused by the
crowding of British settlement
around three sides of the Free
State. Now British settlement and
colonies surround the Transvaal on
three sides and they are shut in by
the Portuguese on the remaining
side. They made a vain attempt to
keep open an outlet through Be-
chuanaland to the west, but Sir
Charles Warren’s campaign closed
it up. Their ofd practice of trek-
king northward will. have to be
abandoned, for on that side Rho-
desia shuts them in and they know
that Cecil Rhodes would give them
a frigid reception. Since the Brit-
ish troops have been pressing them
hard on the west, between the

" Orange river and Mafeking, some
of them have tried to flee westward
into the German colony of Damara-
land, but they are to be headed off
there as undesirable immigrants.

The Boer cattleman is an institu-
tion of the past, like the trapper and
fur-trader of this continent. He
was the advance guard of civiliza-

the

erts’ brilliant strategy and his
army’s splendid fighting goes for
nothing. :

The gold discoveries in Alaska
have made that. territory one of the
principal subjects of legislation by
congress. A bill will be reported
to the senate for the laying of a
government cable from Puget
Sound to Alaska.

A gold rush to Siberia is the next
thing, and American railroads are
publishing. literature about the
mines and mining laws of that
country, It will not be long before
the American miner has stampeded
around the world.

Gen. Wheeler has returned - from
the Philippines and announced that
the war is over, only a few guerrilla
bands remaining in the field. Now
the people of the’ United Statés say
the war-taxes ought to stop. That
is another nut for congress to crack.
