Commandant Snyraan spoke in part
as follow:
"Ladies and Gntlessen: The South
African republic was first prominent
ly brought before the notice of the
wot Id by that ridiculous and still most
c:tra?eotis raid initiated by John
Cecil Rhodes, and led by Jameson.
The rent, it. as you all know, was
Irkly brought ahojt. a, after two
minutes attack by General Cronje,
Jameson surrendered.
"After some consultation it was de
cided that Jameson and his oScers
should be banded orer for punish
ment to the imperial authorities; in
stead cf being punished these raiders
were held up as hero, and their im
prisonment was a farce. Jameson's
roosa in the prison was luxuriously
furnished, and his friends were al
lowed to visit him freely. Of course,
this conduct oa the part of the im
perial authorities at once aroused the
surplclon of Kruger and his govern
ment, and they saw that their country
wa la danger, and bejean to prepare
for the war that every clear-sighted
tsas could free was coming. As the
Jameon raid was a failure. Rhodes
and his cans at once started on other
lines to aecompllth their object, open
ly boasting that the next lime they
raided the Transvaal they would have
the Iiritikh government at their back.
"Now waa started a plan of cam
paign against the Tranavaal. with the
grievances and wrong pf the Uitland
ers, Ken who came there with noth
Elg. and In a short time were wealthy.
New we hear cf the gold tax. dynamite
monopoly, p-tit'.oa of ritianders,
franchise a!l thee were brought for
ward as possible, excuses for inter
ference of the British government.
"At th's point President Steyn of
the Orange Kre i State, recognizing
the danger, arranged a friendly con
ference between President Krurr and
Sir Alfred iliiner of the Cape Colony
at Dloenfontein. This conference was
a failure, although President Kruger
reduced the length f residence to qual
ify for a franchise from twelve to ser
n year, but ililner obstinately held
oct for fire years. Kruger went back
to the Transvaal and summoned his
parliament. After a few days' discus
sion the parliament unanimously
agreed to the five years' residence de
manded by Sir Alfred Mllner. Then
the jingo press began an outcry, say
ing that Kruger could not be trusted,
and as soon as the British troops were
withdrawn Kruger would go back on
his word.
"Here President Steyn again stepped
Into the breach, and guaranteed his
state and person as security that Kru
ger would abide by his promise. This
dispatch, which was sent to Sir Alfred
Mllner, was by him kept back and nev
er forwarded to the Imperial authori
ties. Petitions were now gotten up
by the people of the Cape Colony, and
one by the women also, praying Sir Al
fred Mllner and the queen of England
to do everything to avoid war, but
these petitioners were tot listened to
or regarded in any way. In the mean
time the British were pouring troops
into South Africa.
"Just before the war started a gen
eral election took place in the Cape
Colony, and the Africander or Boer
party were returned in a majority,
again showing that the sentiment of
the people in the Cape Colony was
against the jingo or war party.
"Now, we come to the much-talked-of
ultimatum of the Boer governments.
Now, let me tell you what this ulti
matum was:
" 'Seeing we the South African re
publics are on friendly terms with
the British government we regard the
concentration of their troops on our
borders as a declaration of war..
"To this the reply was sent: 'We
have nothing further to say.
"You all know the commencement
and further continuance of the war.
The jingo party did not think that the
Boers would fight. Rhodes himself
declared in the Cape parliament that
Kruger was only bluffing, and that as
roon b the Brltirh troops crossed the
border he would give in.
"You all heard about Duller making
plans to eat his Christmas dinner at
Pretoria; poor man, he was busy
croing and recroslng the Tugela.
This w?.r has revolutionized the art of
war. the Beers having proved that an
intelligent, self-reliant man who can
shoot and ride is worth ten men who
are taught to drill and look nice on
parade.
"The British have been fighting the
Boers for many years, pointing us out
as uncivilized, barbarous, cruel and
dirty: I ask you, do we, who are only
the average among our people, look so
very barbarous? In the conduct of
this war who has been the uncivilized
nation, the British, who have fired on
cur ambulances, abused the white flag
and used the Red Cross to fire on our
men. and who used dum-dum bullets?
"I am sure you would all like to
hear nhlng of the prospects and
outcome of the war. Well, let me say
right here, the Boers will win, and the
British will never conquer our people.
You may say that this is a bold state
ment, and I admit It does seem so to
you. who are unacquainted with the
country and people.
"I know my people and know what
they can do. The Boers know every
Inch of the country and can both

can we get supplies and ammunition?
Imyeelf buried enough ammunition
to last the war for two years. When
ever tho Boers want supplies they lay
in wait for a small British garrison
or outpost anJ swoop down on them
and get whatever they need. The war
office has to keep two accounts, one for
supplies rendered Lord Kitchener and
the other for General Dewet.
"The people In the Cape Colony are
helping the Boers, and even the na
tives give the Boers supplies. More
over, we have friends in England who
help us, and by and by the British
taxpayer, when the chancellor of .the
exchequer presents another- budget
with a large deficit, will begin to ask
what benefit he is receiving for his
money.
"The war has cost England more
than $1,000,000,000 already, and con
tinues to cost from $5,000,000 to $6,
000,000 every week. What nation can
long etand this enormous drain?
"Every dead Boer has cost $500,000.
"I must not close without telling
you of your mission, which Is on be
half of th.e Boer women and. children,
who have had their homes destroyed,
all their property looted, and now are
in the hands of the British in prison
camps, where they are exposed to great
hardships and sufferings. They have
been taken away without clothing
from their homes."
At the close of the plea hearty ap
plause was given the speaker.
Against the War Spirit 1
Things have come to such a pass in
England that the scholarship of the
nation be?!ns to speak ou".
Herbert Spencer has written a let
ter pleading for the mitigation of the
war spirit. In it he says:
"Whatever fosters militarism makes
for barbarism; whatever fosters peace
makes for civilization. There are two
fundamentally opposed principles o
which social life may be organized
compulsory co-operation and volun.
tary co-operation the one implying
coercive institutions, the other free in
stitutions. "Just in proportion as militant ac
tivity Is great does the coercive re
gime more pervade the whole society.
Hence to oppose militancy is to op
pose a return toward despotism.
"My prayer is that the retrograde
movement will not become too strong
to be checked by argument or exhortation."
A 20th CENTURY MARVEL
Doctor Who Treat and Cure Patleata
Without Pay Thla ia What the British
Doctors are Doing at Their Office in the
Sheldon Block Corner 11th and Streeta
A staff of eminent physicians and
surgeons from the British Medical In
stitute, at the urgent solicitation of a
large number of patients under their
care in this country, have established
a permanent branch of the institute in
htis city, at the corner of 11th and N
streets in the Sheldon block.
These eminent gentlemen have de
cided to give their services entirely
free for three months (medicines ex
cepted) to all invalids who call upon
them for treatment between now and
July 10. These services will not only
consist of consultation, examination
and advice, but also of all minor sur
gical operations.
The object in pursuing this course is
to become rapidly and personally ac
quainted with the sick and afflicted,
and under no conditions will any
charge whatever be made for any ser
vices rendered for three months to all
who call before July 10.
The doctor treats all forms of disease
and deformities and guarantee a cure
In every case they undertake. At the
interview a thtrough examination is
made, and, if incurable, you are frank
ly and kind. told so; also advised
against spending your money for use
less treatment.
Male and female weakness, catarrh
and catarrhal deafness, also rupture,
coiter, cancer, all skin diseases and all
Gifrtasts of the rectum, are positively
cured by their new treatment.
The Chief Consulting Surgeon of the
Institute, Dr. J. Boyd, is in personal
charge.

Hardy's Column
Sheridan, Wyo., Saturday Morning,
June 28. A comfortable slide in 24
hours from 98 to frost line. Living
snow in sight. Since the white man's
record, no season has had the fall or
rain equal to the present in this re
gion. Stock of all kinds never looked
as well this time of year. We read of
the "cattle of a thousand hills," but
between here and Broken Bow there
must be a thousand cattle to every hill
and the hills can hardly be numbered.
They have begun already to ship the
fatest cattle east. Wool Is being sacked
and corded up for shipment. The
English are still buying and shipping
horses to Africa. The rangers admit
that horses are well cleaned out. With
all the stock in sight, not one acre in
ten between Broken Bow and Sheridan
ever felt the pressure of a tame ani
mal's hoof. Think of it, over nine
millions of acres of government land
yet In the state of Nebraska, besides
many thousand acres of unoccupied
railroad land. We go from here thir
ty miles into the mountains to feed on
trout, mountain scenery and perpetual
enow. Few in Lincoln can appreciate
the change from last Thursday's
"sweat box" to the need of an over
coat on Saturday morning, but we
brought the overcoat as good fortune
would have It. It will not grind our
feelings to know the B. & M. R. R.
company are making money out of
this country and for this country.
Without the Iron track this vast region
would only be a . dot in the world's
commerce.
KRUGER'S VISIT HERE. .
Preparation For Oom Pawl's ftvawp
- tloa la awawrtoa Qwiaa Made. "
The Boer sympathizers in the United
States are making preparations for Mr.
Kruger'a expected visit to the United
States in the autumn, which was an
nounced some time ago by Montague
Whitev the Transvaal representative in
Washington, Bay the New York Times.
O. Wi Van der Hoogt, an active Boer
sympathizer of Washington, who" re
cently returned from New York, says
a conference of leading pro-Boers was
held in that city a few days ago and
that the chairman of the reception
committee was chosen. Ht . will be
Consul General Pierce of the Orange
Free State, whose office Is in New
York. : .jv . ' ' .
Mr. Van der Hoogt says the Boer
agents in the United States are in pos
session of complete information, both
by telegraph and mall, about the prog
ress of the war and that their cable
advices show that Mrs. Botha's visit
to Mr. Kruger is in no way connected
with peace negotiations Mrs. Botha
took with her to Europe detailed in
formation from her husband and from
General Schalkburger, the acting presi
dent. "Cable advices of a private nature
which I saw while In New York," said
Mr. Van . der Hoogt prove beyond
all doubt that the Boers have gained
great ground, that they are now in con
trol of all the country In the Trans
Taal, Orange Free State and Natal and
that all that the English control Is the
main cities and the stations along the
railroad lines. The seat of the Boer
government Is still in the Ermelo dis
trict, which is within 40 miles of Pre
toria. In the Orange Free State and
In the Transvaal the Boers have 15,000
regular fighting men in the field, and
the force Invading Cape Colony Is made
up of about 4,000 picked men, divided
up into mobile bands, who are recruit
ing constantly and sending the recruits
to Botha and De Wet."
Mr. Van der Hoogt said that General
Botha was permitted to communicate
by cable with Mr. Kruger on condition
that he would get Kruger to agree to
certain peace terms, favorable to Great
Britain, and that the British authori
ties should see the dispatches. Botha
carried out the agreement, and Kru
ger's reply was that independence was
the first basis of any terms of peace.
A JEWISH EXHIBITION.
MACHINE TO HANDLE FRUIT
Kleetrle Device- Expected to Save Ita
Coat, K3S.OOO. the Flrat Tear.
In the Immediate future there will be
installed at the Illinois Central's fruit
wharf In New Orleans by the United
Fruit company an apparatus operated
by electricity that will almost automat
ically unload the fruit vessels that
bring their cargoes to New Orleans.
The machine Is the Invention of a Phil
adelphian, S. J. Sidney, and it will cost
In the neighborhood of $33,000 to erect
It will save this much nearly in the
handling of bananas alone In a year
and will revolutionize that part of the
fruit business.
Incidentally It will dispense with the
greater part of the Italian labor em
ployed on the wharf. Now It costs the
fruit Importers 2Va cents a bunch for
the handling of bananas. The machin
ery will cut this to 1H cents a bunch.
Last year 3.000.000 bunches were han
dled at this wharf, and the prospects
are that the Imports next year will be
much larger. For the privilege of al
lowing the United Fruit company to
place In position this wonderful money
saver the board of commissioners of
the port of New Orleans will receive
$600 the first year of its operation and
$1,000 each succeeding year.
A DINOSAUR FOUND.
Profeaaor Rig-sra Discover Remains
of One Near Urand Junction, Colo.
Professor Riggs of the Field Colum
bian museum of Chicaco, who has been
delving in the earth ten miles below
Grand Junction, Colo., on the other
side of the Grand river, has discovered
the remains of an immense, specimen
of the dinosaur, the prehistoric mon
ster that used to drink out of the vast
lake that once covered the territory
now known as Grand valley, says the
New York Times. The fossilized re
mains of the dinosaur are nearly per
fect and as complete as any yet discov
ered In any part of the continent The
one under discussion must have been
over 70 feet in length and nearly 9 feet
in height
Professor Riggs has been at work
across the Grand river for the past few
weeks, being assisted by skilled work
men. The skeleton will be taken to Chi
cago and set up In the museum. The
discovery of the magnificent specimen
will add fresh laurels to the fame of
Dr. Riggs.

President of tae Executive Com
aalttee.V . .
It has been determined by a number
of prominent persons interested in the
subject to have in New York city dur
ing the winter of 1001- and 1902 an
American Jewish historical exhibition
similar in some departments to the
Anglo-Jewish Historical exhibition held
in .London in 1887, says the New York
Times. When the American Jewish
Historical society held Its last meeting
in Philadelphia, a committee was ap
pointed with full powers to plan for
this exhibition.
The committee, In whose list of mem
bers are many prominent persons, re
ported that such an "exhibition would
do credit to the Jews of America and
convince the American people that their
Jewish brethren have played an Impor
tant part In the development and his
tory of the United States. Upon this
report it was agreed that such an ex
hibition should be held. An executive
committee was Immediately appointed
as follows:
New York Oscar S. Straus, Max J.
Kohler, Joseph Jacobs, N. Taylor Phil
lips, Professor Morris Loeb, Professor
Richard Gottheil, Leon Huhner, George
Hellman.
Philadelphia Mayer Sulzberger, Dr.
Herbert Friedenwald.
Baltimore The Rev. Dr. William
Rosenau.
Chicago The Rev. Dr. B. Felsenthal.
Cincinnati The Rev. Dr. Phillipson.
Galveston The Rev. Henry Cohen.
San Francisco The Rev. Jacob Voor-
sanger.
Dr. Cyrus Adler of the Smithsonian
institution of Washington has been
elected president of the exhibition.
Among the things to be shown 'are
historical records of the Jews In Amer
ica, including such things as Colum
bus' earliest record's of his discovery
written to Jews In Spain, inquisition
records, Washington's letters to Jews,
portraits and pictures of well known
American Jews and the histories of
Jewish Institutions In America. There
will also be Included a collection of all
books written by the Jews of America
or pertaining to American Judaism.
An International exhibit of things per
taining to ecclesiastical art and to Jew
ish antiquities Is to be a feature.
Not only will antiquity be represent
ed, but whatever It Is thought will be
Interesting will be utilized. While ob:
Jects having to do with American his
tory will be the largest part of the ex
hibition. It has been determined to give
Jews from Russia and Germany proper
space. It has been thought best not to
give the exhibition as an American
Jewish Historical society function, but
to Invite all other important Jewish so
cieties to participate. Among those
asked to aid are:
The Jewish Publication society, the
Union of American Hebrew Congrega
tions, the Central Conference of Amer
ican Rabbis, the Orthodox Jewish Con
gregational union, the Hebrew Union
college, the Jewish Theological semi
nary, the various Jewish fraternities,
the Chautauqua society, the Council of
Jewish Women, the National Confer
ence of Jewish Charities and the Fed
eration of American Zionists.
A general committee for the direction
of the exhibition will be selected from
committees appointed by these organi
zations. The main executive committee
and minor committees of detail have
already been chosen. As those In
charge desire to be in communication
with those who will exhibit as soon as
possible an office will be secured short

English Fruit Dealer Sara It Has Ko
Superior.
William N. White, an extensive fruit
dealer from London, arrived in Topeka
recently to make an investigation of
Kansas apple orchards and ascertain
the best grades of apples for packing
and storage purposes, says the Kansas
City Times. Mr. White believes that
Kansas has a great future before It as
an apple producing state. lie says soil
that will raise good wheat will raise
better apples, and Kansas farmers
would do well to plant orchards on
some of their wheat land.
Mr. White says that the Armour
Packing company of Kansas City will
be a big factor In the apple business
this year. He says the company exper
imented last year and found that It
could make money by purchasing and
storing apples and that It will go Into
the business more extensively this
year. "The bulk of the apples used In
England,' said Mr. White, "come from
this country. It Is only a question of
time until America controls the apple
market of the world. California could
easily take the wine trade of the conti
nent away from France If Callfornlans
would learn to blend their wines. The
California grapes make better wine
than the French grapes."

Cleveland Jews do not take much
stock la the scheme of tho Zionist to
purchase Palestine and in the reports
that come from London that the proj
ect will be successfully carried out
Dr. -Theodore IXersl, the leader of the
Zionist morement has just reached
London from Constantinople, where he
had a conference with the sultan, and,
according to tht press reports, he waa
much encouraged v far the interview.
Dr. Ilerzl Is sanguine of the success of
his propaganda, but the Jewish people
of the United S totes are not so san
guine that the Zionists will succeed in
carrying out their plans, nor do they
take much Interest in the matter.
"I don't take much stock in the dis
patches coming from Europe Indicating
that the plans of the Zionists to pur
chase Palestine are about to prove suc
cessful," said Dr. M. Machol recently
to a reporter of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. "I think that it is possible that
the statements were given to the press
to stir up interest in the propaganda of
the Zionists. As a matter of fact the
Jews In America have never taken a
great amount of interest In the move
ment to purchase the Holy Land and
make a Jewish kingdom of the country
and have all the Jews go there. As far
as . the American Jews are concerned
this country is good enough for them,
and they could not be Induced to emi
grate to Palestine.
"As far as I know little has been
done In this country to help the plans
of the Zionists. Reports have been cir
culated, to the effect that a large
amount of money has been raised, but
they have not been authenticated.
"A meeting was held in Philadelphia
some time ago in the interest of the
Zionist movement and the work in
this country was placed in the hands
of Professor Richard Gottheil of Co
lumbia university . and Stephen Wise
of Portland, Or. The most practical
result accomplished at the meeting was
the raising of $500 for Roumanians
who come to this country. The two
members of the committee are very
enthusiastic in the matter, but I do not
think they can accomplish much In
this country.
"All orthodox Jews are In sympathy
with the movement as far as its chari
table features are concerned. They are
In favor of providing .homes in Pales
tine for the oppressed Jews of various
lands, but they do not go as far as to
desire to purchase Palestine and make
a Jewish kingdom of the country."

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Lloyd Aarency Said to Have Devel
oped a New System. '
Two new systems of wireless teleg
raphy, which are claimed by the In
ventors to be superior to that of Slgnor
Marconi, have been developed by the
Lloyd agency of England and will be
tested in the presence of Commander
Richardson Clover, United States naval
attache In London, says a Washington
special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. Apparently satisfied
with the Marconi system, the British
government is negotiating for 50 addi
tional sets of Instruments, which will
be Installed on board the larger ships
of its channel. Mediterranean and Asi
atic squadrons. Developments made
by Marconi and other Inventors In the
field of wireless telegraphy convince
officials of the navy department that
by the end of the present year a sys
tem can be purchased by the navy
which will give entire satisfaction.
Lloyd's agency has offered to supply
the American navy With its instru
ments at a much smaller cost, than
fixed by Marconi. The tloyds, accord
ing to Commander Clover, In an offi
cial report to the navy S department
claim that they were able to communi
cate 195 miles by means oif their sys
tem. The greatest distance jcovered by
a message sent by the Marconi system
is 185 miles. No details of thte two sys
tems perfected by the Lloyds Kiave been
furnished . the navy department by
Commander Clover, and it Is Vinlikely
