THE BOBR WAR.

__—

The character of thewar in South Africa has so entirely changed from what it was in the beginning that it may be desirable to give a fuller account of present con- ditions than has heretofore appeared in We hear much of block- houses in the accounts of the recent fighting. It is by blockhouses almost without number that the railway lines are guarded, and held, and rendered un- crossable. These have been constructed by a vast expenditure of labor and so located that every yard of railway line is dominated by fire from one or more block- houses in which riflemen are posted.

our columns.

This system of miniature forts guarding the railways is the backbone of Lord Kitchener’s present system of carrying on the war. Blockhouses and armoured trains have apparently solved the problem of protecting the lines of communication. and it will have been noticed that for a good ‘whiie past we have heard little of trains being derailed, or railway Such incidents are now only possible where Boer commandoes combine in such numbers as to be able to force their way across, perchance cap tur- ing a small blockhousc garrison by a sudden dash. The line of railway forts serves also to divided the Boer forces and assists greatly in the work of capturing them from time to time.

In addition to these rail way block houses other lines of like defences have been constructed across the country, more or less at right angles with the trunk lines of railway. The drifts or fords of riversare also guarded by blockhouses

and barbed wire entanglements to check

lines being cut.

the movements of the enemy and keep in each department so many of them as are now there, prevent their concentration and facilitate the work of hunting them down. Upon the ground thus divided and subdivided the mobile, or flying columns of the British are doing the There are about sixty of these columns whose num- bers vary from 200 to 2,0(1) each.

These columns operate in groups, on-

work of pursuit and capture.

deavoring to approach the Boer com- mandoes from several sides and hem them in. One of these sweeping move- ments frequently covers a front of fifty miles or more. and of course the line can- not be continuous. It thus happens that he alert and mobile enemy slips through the lines from time to time. Sometimes when surrounded and hard pressed they pr torush upon the line of block- houses take chances against the forces which have nearly surrounded them in the field. The Boer has been found to be a

The Lower House hon yielded, thus establishing a strange, and what would in Canada be thought to be a dangerous precedent. There are likely to be other conflicts in the future botWeen the two Houses. And its remains to be soon whether the Australian constitution is as workable as that of Canada. I

A very silly article appears in the editorial column of the Patriot of Satur- day from the pen of a correspondent. The article charges Tin: GUARDIAN with dictating to the Liberal party i This is wholly untrue. We certainly desire the electors to carry out their own wishes. In supporting Mr. Hassard so far as we have done so, it is to be. observed that Mr. Farquhss'son himself in a letter to Mr. Hausrd said, "You have as good a right as I to contest the district.” Many think Mr. Hssasrd has the better right. Again the Patriot’s editorial correspondent says “it was entirely due to Mr. Parquharson that we are torsccive the $80,000 subsidy." The Patriot had long since given the credit for that to Sir Louis Davies. The same writer asks Mr. Haszsrd to retire. Who is he that thus asks i Somebody who does not want to be known l The Patriot has apparently ceased to be the organ of the Liberal party ‘and has become the mouthpiece of one man and a few of his retainers. .

The Examiner relates the story of an old Liberal from a neighboring district, who came to town a few days ago, and}, having sold his produce and bought his-1‘ supplies went into the Patriot office to pay his little bill. On coming out he re- marked to a brother Liberal: “Everyone in the Patriot office in in favor of Far- quharson, but everyone outside of the Patriot seems to be in favor of Hasz ard.’ Whether true or not the summing up is funny in a way and fits in with the pleasant manner in which, so far as this City is concerned at least, the canvass is being conducted by Mr. Haszard and his friends. “A spoonful of molasses will at- tract more flies than a pint of vinegar.”

The dissatisfaction of the general public was increased by the city being left in darkness while notices were out topatrons that they must pay much higher for their

by the British. It has also been demon-

strated that there is now at least no

superiority of Beer marksmanship over

the British.

it will be seen that the Operations have

been thoroughly systematised, and are

being pressed forward with vigor. Some

recent very flerco fighting would seem .to

show that there is no indication of the

British forces having become worn-out or stale. The losses of the enemy for months past in killed. wounded,prisoners

and men surrendered have been at least five to one of the British. Otherwise the vast extent of the country, the dispersion of the British forces in flying columns. garrisons,blockhouses and armored trains the rampant disloyalty in Cape Colony and above all the determined spirit of the Boers, account for the prolongation of the war. But the spirit of the army and of the British people is excellent, and there is no thought anywhere but of carrying forward the war with unrelenting vigor to its close.

_____....__——— The Australian constitution differs greatly from that of Canada in several respects, but notably iin regard to the powers of the two Houses respecting taxation or appropriation bills. The Senate of the Commonwealth, cannot, it is true. originate a bill appropriating moneyorimposing taxes. But it has the
