THE BRITON AND THE BOER Dr. Grant of Orillia Lectures in St. Andrew’s. THE GEOGRAPHY AND DEVELOPMENTS I OF SOUTH AFRICA â€" ITS PEOPLE â€"‘ THEIR QUARRELS LEADING TO THIS WARâ€"THE BOER A VERY BAD MAN â€"-â€"WON’T LBT ALIENS VOTEâ€"TALKS BACK TO THE GREATEST ON EARTH. Five hundred women and seventy-five men and boys listened to Rev. Dr. Grant‘s lecture at St. Andrew's church on Monday night. The doctor’s subject was “South Africa: the Briton and the Boer.” His lecture contained a great deal of useful information about things material and human in that land. His version of the Boer only needed confirmation to establish the doctrine of total depravity, and his defence of the somewhat novel theory that ‘ a nation must make its laws to suit foreign- ers was the most vigorous that we have heard The doctor spoke with a positive- ness that comes only with experience and mature years. Apart from the methods by which they were reached his conclusions certainly support Britain in the present war.

In the days of “The Black an'e Africa” that sombre individual neglected to divide the country up into Cape Colony, Natal, Orange Free State, Transvaal and Rhodesia.

The husbands of these ladies may already be acquainted with the price through con- sulting milliner bills. The circus, which we used to regard with such awe in our youth, got its mana- grie stock from Africa. By this and other means savages and savage animals are becoming less numerous than formerly in that land. In the same proportion is the clergyman’s excuse for going to the circus vanishing away. The natives are the most terrific fighters in the world! There are no lakes or navigable rivers in South Africa. Ox and mule teams are much used A blacksmith was taken from the firing line recently and sent to Orange River to shoe mules. After a week’s ex- perience he wrote the general requesting to be put back in the firing line again for safety. The mule is an expert in rear guard actions. The Portugese navigator Diaz discover- ed the Cape of Good Hope in 1486 during a storm. That was six years before Colum- bus found America. Eleven years later others of his countrymen explored the southern and eastern coast and founded the germ of a settlement at Delagoa Bay. Two hundred and fifty years later a Dutch trading'company founded a settlement in South Africa. The government of such companies was. and always has been, as bad as it could possibly be. Itis bad because the company aims at making money and not at developing the country. A century and a half later in 1815 the king of the Netherlands sold Cape Colony to the British for $30,000,000â€"more than it was worth. m Britain wanted it as a half-way place to India. _ The ?7.000_ Dutch objected to their purchasers and that was the‘ beginning of trouble. There has been no love'lost between the British and Dutch there since. Reasons:(1) The Dutch dis; liked foreigners. (2) The missionaries of 1 the London society reported the misdow ings of the Dutch to the parliament. (3) The Dutch kept slaves and 19 years later the British decided to abolish slavery in all parts of the Empire. For that purpose the government set aside a hundred millions. Of this $15,000,000 went to liberate the 39,000 slaves in South Atrica. The Dutch still held the idea of slavery. while the British even extended some civil rights to the Hottentots. Every- body‘s blood ought to tingle because Brit- ain freed the slaves. She paid these Dutchmen fifteen millions for theirs. Prof. Bryce says they were worth more. I'll tell you what I think, England should not have given them fifteen cents. but ‘should have freed the slaves, as the lAmericans did to the south of us. by the i force of arms. In 1837 the Dutch decided to move away from Cape Colony. They compared them- selves ‘with the ichildren of Isrggl going from. Egypt. There was a difierence though. The Dutch took slavery With them, the Israelites left it behind. A boy drove an ox team in that journey. His name was Kruger. It would have been a good deal better if he had stayed at the job for it became him better than guiding anatiou. These peeple were going from the British flag. Tyrants have always trembled before the red. white and blue. It is the symbol of liberty and justice, honor and righteeusness. May the day never come when the oppressor will not fly before it. The Dutch fled then andI am thinking they are going to fly a good ‘ deal faster before long. These pilgrims went first to what is now the Orange Free State and later spread to the Transvaal. In each of these places they killed the natives. Compare that with the way Britain uses blacks. Because they went on the territory of the natives then the British have a right to 20 on their territory now. From about 1836 till 1877 the history of the Transvaal was one of bloodshed. In that year only three dollars was in the treasury. England interfered at the request of the natives and some of the Boers. Conventions were held in 1881 and 1881. By these Britain was to protect the natives and control the foreign relations of the Transvaal govern- ‘ment. Scon after gold and diamonds were dis- covered. The Boers were anxious that people should come in, just as we Wrre when the Yukon boom Was on. They did come and invested large sums. They were foreigners and the Boers gave them no part in she government of the Trans- vaal. They were expected to obey the laws and pay their taxes. No man would stand that who knows what freedom is and how to defend his rights. GRIEVANCES The Boers were 80,000; the Outlanders 160.000. The latter owned more than half the land and the mines. They paid nine- teen twentieths cf the taxes. ""Tiié's'fiiéié were $80 per head, but they were not allowed to vote because they were not citizens of the country. But the franchise was not the chief grievance.‘ __ _ -vâ€"-‘ - The preés Wis not allowed to publish articles that were ofl‘ensive to the govern- menu: - .c o h. 1 ii, wv-â€"w' Open or indoor meetings might be dis- pelsed if the‘qut‘porities saw fit. ,,,,,, I: _-A.

One year $90,000 went astray and in sixteen gears ten millions was stolen by some- 0 y. The ”liquor license said Johannesburg should have 88 licences; it had 438 in 1884. Judges helo office at the pleasure of 010 ‘ man Kruger. T No aliens could serve on juries and they were sometimes eXpelled without trial. They were also compelled to serve in war. The Orange Free State is not as bad as the Transvaal, but even there it is said three lads were shot on Christmas day for refusing to fight against Britain. Dutch was the language of the schools. The dual language was not permitted. Only $3,000 of the whole taxes was grant- ed to the English separate schools in Johan nesburg. -- --- A .. . ‘ u «I u U Uuulluv-Vunbu In that city 23.000 Outlander‘s had only the same number of representatives in the city council as the 1000 Boers. The president had the veto power. There was a special tax on dynamite and amonopoly of the manufacture had been granted. There was a railway monopoly. but we have them nearer home._ -A-- .u n Vv vâ€"\â€" _-_. Things grew worse. In 1877 the fran- chise was given after one year’s residence; in 1882, after five years. It is said that old man hruger‘s offer last summer meant that a man_weuld_nevex_- get ‘t_h_e fnanphise. â€" â€".._ But the Outlaoders did nothing in haste. Deputatlona souaht redress in vain. In 189%?) huge positions were sent but old man Kruger said, “I will do nothing. let the storm burst." It has burst and it will THE GREAT TREK HISTORICAL These petitions to old man Kruger were not signed by capitalists for they did not want war. nor by the rifi‘-rafl‘ for they did not want those 438 liquor dives closed up. The (problem was one that our Mowat woul have mastered with a smile, our Macdonald would have settled it and got most of the petitioners to vote for him, out Laurier, with Sir Chas. Tupper to watch him, would have made a settlement with no trouble, but old man Kruger did not settle it because he did not want to. BRITAIN INTERFERRED Britain interferred. The convention of 1881-4 said aliens should not be taxed differently from burghers. Right after higher taxes were placed on articles used by miners.‘ It is said Britain need not fight, to give people the chance to leave Empire and go to another nation as the Outlanders wanted to. Does a mother not do everything she can to help her daughter join another family? She does and that is the way Britain does with her subjects. ALIEN VOTERS A citizen in Canada will raise earth and another place if his nameis left- 011‘ the the voters' list and here were 23,0(1) foreigners in Johannesburg paying $80 each taxes and yet could not vote. Who could hear such a state of affairs? Not the citizens of the great Empire. GOT THERE FIRST The ultimatum was a piece of impudence. What right had a small nation to send ultimatum to the greatest nation on earth? Think of their saying if these terms were not accepted in two days they would make war. And they did. Before our troops, which were half way there when the ultimatum was sent, could get ’there, the Boers went on with the war. Think of it. Did we give the Fenians bread and cheese? No sir, nor we would ‘ not if they came over again. LIKE THE DEVIL The Boers are called a plain, pastoral people. Old man Kruger can quote scripture. So can the devil. If they are a plain, pastoral people how did thev learn to shoot. Were the pioneers in Canada good shots. No sir. You can not learn to shoot out in the wild country raising stock. The forts they built in their cities prove that they are not plain pastoral people. not cease till he is out of public life, and I say before God we are doing right. THE JAMESON RAID The Jameson raid was wrong. but the raiders were punished. Jameson was in jail six months and his followers were nearly shot, so you see the crime was not whitewashed. \Vhen people have been punished for doing wrong their sin should not be mentioned. ' Our blood boils to hear men-even Ian Maclsrenâ€"talking about the relizion of the Boers. Think of the piety of the British soldiers. They often have bibies in their clothes. Mr. Chamberlain once taught. in Sunday school and if he has not bagkslidhe is a good man now. There is a war for freedom and justice and rixzhteousness as we understand it.

When the meeting was held to devise ways and {neaqs o_f raising fqnd_s tqengpw a county hospital many of the leading citizens of Victoria were present. Some, however, were not. Letters of regret were read at the meeting. Others were received by Warden Ellis after the meeting was over. Herewith we publish two that indi- cate the attitude of their writers to the scheme: ' Victoria Road. Feb. 19th, 1900. F. C. Taylor, _Esq., Lindsay: ‘ Dear Sin-1 regret to say it will be im- possible for me to be present at your meet- ing on the 2151: re the hospital for the county. I am personally stronglv in favor of having one built, and hope itwis‘lbe accomplished. Yours, ALFRED TAYLOR. Tp. Clerk of Bexley. Haliburton, Feb. 20th. 1900. J. A. Ellis, Esq., Warden Co. Victoria: Dear Mr. Ellis, - I am sorry I cannot avail myself of the opportunity to be pres- ent with you at your meeting on the fist inst I am fully persuaded, however, that you will have a highly representative meet- ing, and that the meeting will be unani- mous in accepting such a magnanimous offer. The town of Lindsay, if it wishes to keep abreast with other towns. with really less important advantages, with its rail- ways and waterways. should jump at such an offer, recognizing as it must do. the great and urgent need of such an institu- tion in this county.
