' ' ~ W lHl Mllllllllli lilllllllllll FRISD AY JUNE 22,1900. THE FUTURE 0F SOUTH AFRICA. The entire civilized world has now practically come to the conclusion that the Dutch Republics of South Africa will very soon become part and parcel of the British Empire. Such active sym- pathy as was felt for the Boorsin the earlier stages of the war has largely died out, or become quiescent. It is said tobe natural tosympathise with “the under dog in a fight," but by a natural perversity dog has no longer the slightest fighting chance. So it comes that even the Britain-hating continental powers are now apparent y prepared toacquiesce in the results of the logic of events, and to view with a degree of complacency the acquisi- tion of the South African States by Great Britain. - The problem to be faced by British statesmen is the future government of the new States. Fortunately it is to to solved by no inexperienced hands, for the statesmen of the Empire have had to do with many kindreds, tongues and tribes in many various parts of the world. The diiilculties will doubtless be found to be considerable, but it is possible that ten years hence we may conclude that they Dutch peoples of the late Republics are much embittered against us, but after all their numbers are small. Be it remem- bered that we have long ruled more peo ple of Dutch blood in Cape Colony alone than now reside in the two conquered States. It may also be observed in the two States themselves there is but a com paratively small preponderance of the Dutch over the Outlander and English- speaking people combined. Nor ought it to be forgotten that there is, notably in the Orange State, a large section of the burghers who have shown a disposition to accept the new order of things, not of choice, but still quietly of necessity. Those who have estates and property will be those most disposed to settle down peacefully under British rule. And these are precisely the classes who in times of peace will be most influential among their fellows. They will be treat- ed justly and the restoration of kindly re- lations must be left to the healing influ- ence of time. The Boer is ignorant and bigoted, no doubt, but there is much that is good in the better classes of the race and these will quickly settle down to 1-,hg ways of peaceful industry. It may be observed that though Britain has within the century past acquired much ffel`l'iff0l'Y bi’ °°'-‘Quest through wars that were forced upon her, it has seldom' if ever within the century happened that the D00P1es so conquered had before possessed free representative institutions. Of these the Republics must be for the time deprived. Like the 1-evoiged S°\1l=herl1 States of our own continent in he Six files, they must for 9. time be con- t-vlled by martial law. Their artillery, forts and munitions of war must be given _in _ ' '- 1 Novelties °'°°°°"‘°"°°°"*' I _ In Carbonated Beverages' are con~ fmually cropping up, bnzsre ge V ,_, __ When properly madetheg canuoid ‘be equaled as Summeqbevemges You will get them i|ad_e»jusL_ right if you ask bottles bear our label.

The rule of the conquefor will bejust, however, and tempered with mercy. It will be the more readily ac opted from the tact that the dream of driving the British into the sea and creating a Dutch federation to control all South, Africa has probably now forever vanished from the minds ot the more intelligent burirhcra. Unfortunately the settlement made by Mr. Gladstone after Maluba had leftln the Boer mind a sort of contempt for the tlghtlrur qimlltles of llluirllsluuen. Many oithom onine to believe that one Boer was equal to many iii-ltlsh soldiers in the field. They know better now.und of their better knowledge has como the avoid- ance of any llglitinu in the open with equal numbers of their once despised foemen. This newly gained respect for British valor will be of itselfn powerful factor in the restoration of friendly rola- tions between the two races. And, under British rule immigration from many lands will set toward South Africa, thus proportionately reducing the strength of it in at minority. All these things will aid in the solution of the problem, and paciiication may come more quickly than we have dreamed. In fact we may conclude a very few years hence, in view of the results achieved, that it was agood thing that the heart of the Pharaoh of South Africa. was hardened as t was in the year of “grace” 1899. 1-g| Hon. James Dunsmuir, the new Premier of British Columbia, is said to be the wealthiest man in political life in Canada. He was bornaorossrthei border in Washington State but has spent nearly an his life in canada. He was first elected to the Legislature of British Columbia in 1808 as a supporter of the Turner Government, and has now asso- ciated Mr. Turner with him in the new Cabinet. Mr. Dunsmuir is one of the most unobtrusive and silent of public men, and during three sessions of the Legislature that he has attended has never addressed more than a very few sentences to that body.

It should be every one’s care. Life is I struggle for the prize of success. The man who wins must take care of his stomach. It is not lack of energy or exercise that has caused so many a break-down in the race. It is neglect of the stomach. incessant dull headache agtguvated by eating, tiatulence, gnawing in e stomach, heart urn, acid eructations, coated tongue bad taste in the mouth, nervousness, mental depression, sleeplessness; these are only n _ few of the _?m. __;`- e - " , ' ' H- SIlE0ilS.
