THE CAMPAIGN.

Since General Buller’s disastrqus move on the Tugela river, the con- teuding forces in South Africa: ap- Pear to have settled down to a waiting game—either | waiting for an opening or. waiting till plans have matured; tor a renewal-of hostilities in pursuance. of.ia.-new program. Such.a;time:is a good:one to review the-situation as it ‘is,,and the out- look, so-far as one can forecast. the uncertain, game-of: war.» Two weeks ago the.air was so full of -hysterical utterances on the part of certain ex- citable London editors :that it was difficult to discriminate: between facts and their, vain imaginings. Now that they have cooled off some- what, the cessation of their clamor has-given: an opportunity to study the conditions.

The facts seem to be that the Boers were at the outset much bet- ter-armed and trained than the Brit-

Several newspapers are still lab- oring hard to make some dullards understand: that 100 years make a century, and that they cannot cut short the 19th with 99 years, just because they are in a hurry to start the 2oth.

that a similar dition does not prevail in the great republic. . All manner of quibbling pretexts, are found for appealing criminal cases to the state supreme court, securing new trials, appealing again on

: holding fortified or hed posi- tions and of all being skilled sharp- shooters as well as drilled soldiers.

But the Boers now have every

available man under arms, while the British are continually augmenting their forces by. new. arrivals:and are thus gaining the superiority. Boers have depended on replenish- ing their armament and stock of food through Delagoa Bay, but the recent action of the British fleet shows that this source of supply is to be closed to them hereafter, if not actually occupied by the British. The war office, late in the day though it is, has at last had both eyes opened by the indignation of the people and is sending out long- range artillery, light cavalry and mounted infantry to make up the deficiencies which the events of the war have revealed. To these arms of the service, the Canadian contin- gent will prove a valuable contribu- tion. . Add to all this the two ablest generals of the British army, men who have overcome difficulties lit- tle, if at all, inferior to those which will confront them in South Africa, and we have a very formidable pro- vision for a renewal of the cam- paign.
