It is no case for. arbitration, even un- der the rules laid: down at- The Hague « conference, for it. involves the national honor and dignity of Great Britain and the very exis- tence of the Boer republics. Great Britain is convinced that the Boers had been for years hatching a con- spiracy to destroy her authority in South Africa, and is determined to accept nothing short -of the full acknowledgment of that authority by the Boers themselves. The Boers, according to their own ad- mission, will be content with noth- ing short of independence, and ac- cording to overwhelming evidence, aim at Dutch supremacy through- out South Africa. “The first requisite to an offer of arbitration is a conciliatory spirit, and the same spirit is requisite 10 inspire the acceptance of such an offer." Even this first. essential is lacking. It should be followed up by a disposition to compromise on both sides. This too is lacking, on the part of the British at least, and even did it exist with them, the course of events in the war has not been such as to move the Boers to make . the b i Good for sell- Full particulars at this office f-22-t ing. . they did und d him it justified his action of Friday night, or that he had any authority to take the Tights of the minority away from them of his own, mere whim, ‘for ‘there was no motion™ that the ad- cannot be for a moment, claimed.” ———— PROTECT THEIR RIGHTS.

This brings us back to the pri- smary difficulty in the way of arbi- tration—the point ot national honor. Ever since Mr. Gladstone's shame- ful surrender in 1881, an English- man has been treated by the Boers as one of a conquered nation, with all the ignorance and_ brutality which characterizes the South Af- tican Dutch. _ Any Englishman who has been in South Africa. will tell with rage and shame of ‘the igno- miny and contempt heaped on the name of his country by the Boers. The latter ‘regard the surrender of 1881, not as a magnaminous act on the part of a vastly superior power but as the yielding of a nation which felt the impossibility of con- “quering them. There is only one way in which British: honor canbe retrieved, and the Boer illusions of their invincibility can be removed. That 1s by the annihilation of the Boers as a military power and the dictation of terms of peace by a British general whose armies occupy Pretoria and Bloemfontein. Some nations, like some men, need to have the truth beaten into. their heads with a club, brutal as this may seem. The Boers are one of these nations and the Britisp army is the club. ‘+ THE SPEAKER ROASTED.
