But the the first arms, while the wild game that give occupation to the hunters has, at the same time, fled before our advance, we have reduced the whole male popula: tion to idleness. We have taken his occupation from the native, and he bas not yot found another. In the sucond place the axiom of civilized so- ciety that the man who does not not work shall not eat is under Brit- ish administration expressly rendered inapplicable to the natives. It has been a part of our system to leave everywhere certain land reserves in which the native may be sure of earth for his wife or wives to cultivate, of a spot on which to raise his but and of his share of tribal corn to eat. In the ladyuege of humanity, we have taken care that the natives of any territory which we have conquered: "| shall not suffer extinction under the fs REE TEHE E i i HE if British flag. In the language of po- litical economy, we have systematical- ly pauperized an entire race. An almost inevitable result of our systemi has been that the uncivilized natives of British territories have not cared in any great numbers to go work either upon the land or in the mines, and, if they have worked at all, it has been in the manner least profitable to themselves and to socie h that is to say fitfully, and temptation of an excessively high rate of wage which enabled the i vidual to earn a great deal in a short period but left him untrained and un- disciplined by any regular habite Tk.

All charges con with those expenses will be borne by the employers, as will also all other incidental expenses of pass- es, eto. The native will be guaranteed in the absolute possession of his wag- es without deductions. The employers on their side lower the rate net wages to ls. a day and rations, the men being housed in native uarters provided by the mines. The overseers of the native quarters will, like the recruiting ag- ents, be in the service of the employ- ers, but will be licensed by govern ment, and any abuse of their position will render them liable to deprivation of license. The native labor associa- tion undertakes to employ no re- cruiti ent or compound manager who _x licensed. Finally, a corps of government inspestors, gent! who are all in close personal touch with the head of their department, will be responsible for the control and supervision of the system. Natives may apply to them personally in any case of abuse, and it will be their business to investigate and report up- on all causes of complaint. The sale or supply of liquor to natives will, of course, be strictly forbidden. It is ho| that under the opera tion of thi of civili- will "not have ing our own natives to its fields.
