WHAT THE BOER DELEGATES | KNOW,

ion

to the Boer delegates, the following

appears: “Former Judge Van Hoesen madea speech and then Edward Lauterbach

ing task; but Delegate Fischer's praise of Mr. Lau erbach’s knowledge of the question coufers more digvity upon this pariicular falsehood than usual and inakes it more worthy of notice i menal ihe following extracts are taken from

the official minutes ofthe conference at Bloemfontein, 1 rior to the war be- President Kruger ardthe British commissioncr, Sir Altred Milner. They

sw(1) that what the Transvral re-

ired was that persons desiring to get the ’ trans

hise must abandon their former cilizenship many years be- fore getting the new one; in other words, remain for years outside the pale of citizenship of any country; (2)that what the British proposed was to ac- tually encourage the Uitlanders to throw away their British citizenship en- tirely, in order to become pure Trans- vaal burghers. The extracts follow, from the official minutes of the confer- ence:

“Sir Alfred Milner.: ‘“There are a great many objections of the gravest kind to the process by which men may now obtain burgher rights. First of all, before he can begin the process of gradwally securing burgher rights— which will be cempleted in 14 years at present, and ia g years according to the President—he has to forswear his Take the case ofa British subject, which interests me most. He takes the (Transvaal)

oath and ceases to bea British sub- ject by the mere fact of taking that cath ; he loses all the — of a British snbiect, and he would still have to watt for twelve years, and under the new plan seven years, befere he can be- come a full citizen of the Republic.

President Kruger: “I would nor like His Excellency to propose a scheme.”

“Sir Alfred: There are two things | have to consider. I have get to con- sider the prejudices of the old burghers I know that even if 1 were to convince the President himself he might have difficulty in convincing other people: therefore I must, in preposing, propose something which it can be made ab- solutely clear to the old burghers will not swamp them. On the other hand I have to consider that it is perfect ly useless to propose something which will give no satisfaction whatever to the reasonable desires of the new (Uit- lander) population, the whole object of the proposal being to give them such an amount of satisfaction as will bring them on tothe the side of the State, to throw in their loc with it, and to work in future with the old burghers asone people. Bearing these things in mind, what I suggest is this: that every foreigner who can prove satisfactorily

President Kruger: “But can His Ex cellency not understand that if [| should give into what he propos: 51 4 they get self-control, and then I would | be practicaliy giving my land away.”

President Kruger continued to harp on this latter idea, “his lamd,” and stuck to his proposal of a franciiise to be granted as follows:

Six months, notice of apply for registration.

T'wo years’ continued registration

Naturalization after the two years of registeration; then five years’ naturali- zation before receiving the franchise.

Proof of contiauoss residence in the transvaal for the whole seven and a half years, and of good character and obedience to the laws during that time.

Now, the naturalization in the Trans- vaal, meant the abandonment of alle- glance elsewhere, so that what Presi- dent Kruger demanded was that a Bri-’ tishsubject should abandon his British citizenship five years before he (if lucky) could get Transvaal citizenship. We continue the quotations from the official minutes :

President Kruger: “It is wholly against God’s word to let the strangers carry on the administration, seeing that they cannot serve two masters at the same time.”

Sir Alfred : “My proposal absolutely gets over the difficulty about their be- ing strangers. The whole basis of ne- gotiations is that they must be citizens of one state or the other. The Presi- dent must recognize my difficulty. It isan extremely difficult thing for me to propose that the people whose in- terests Iam defending should give up the citizenship which they at present have and to which they are sincerley They will not do i readily; but Iam sure that this is the only solution. * * * With re- luctance, | have come to the con- clusion that the best way to enable able these , zople to have their reason- able desires attended to is to urge up-)

Eczema on the Scalp

The ease recorded here is one of the morst ever brought to the attention of Toronto’s best physicians, and when doctors gave up ail hope of recovery, Dr. Chase’s Ointment was successful in producing a perfect cure.

Mr. James Scott, 136 Wright avenue, Toronto, states:—‘ My boy, Tom, aged ten, was for nearly three years afflict- ed with a bad form of Eczema of the scalp, which was very unsightly and resisted all kinds of remedies and doc- tor’s treatment. His head was in a terrible state. We had to keep him from school, times oe head would bleed, and the child would secteam with For two and 4 half years we

A TORONIU UBRUGLISI

Cured of Catarrh by Japanese Ca- tarrh Cure after scores of reme- dics and Physicians failed, says

Japanese Caiarrh Cure is the

Only True Specific.

Mr. Jchn Wylie, who has been for a number of years the well-kncwn senior clerk for Mr. George Marshall, the lead- ee Eust-end ¢ruggist, cor. Queen and

Perkeley streets, Toronto, writes:— “When I say I believe Japanese Ca-

tarrh Cure the only cure for catarrh on the market, I believe I know just what I am talking about. I have been very badly troubled with nasal catarrh I have tried every remedy which I thought would do me good and also several doctors, but only received a little temporary re- lief. After hearing several of our cus- tomers who had used Japanese Catarrh Cure speak so hizhly of it, I tried it. From the very first it gave me much relief, sccn the dropping in my throat ceased, and now, after using in all four boxes of Japanese Catarrh Cure, find myself completely cured of this most disagreeable disease after suffering for years. Since being cured by Japanese Catarrh Cure, I have recommended it to some of our customers and know of several of them whom it has cured.”

If you have catarrh don’t go on ex- perimenting until the disease has reached the lungs, get a box of Japan- ese Catarrh Cure and cure it now. Your druggist sells it, price 50 cents.
