but tbe nights are quite pleasant.
Cotton comes in slowly and stead-
ily but unfortuuately- there is not
much more to come, and not the

great deal of hay, of good quality,
is being harvested and finds a ready

dead of a broken heart—these are
the Boer figures that come before
the mind's eye in the setting of
this final act of the Transvaal trag-
edy. They are heroic and accus-
ing figures. They cry to the whole
civilized world a reproach for the
sin against civilization which al-
lowed their beloved country to be
subjugated by empire. They call
down upon England’s head the
curse of the blood of patriots shed
for their native land. Such voices
do not die away from the hearing
of God or man. The government
that has so ruthlessly wiped out the
Boer people as a nation, and the
governments permitting that crime
—especially that great republic
upon which the little Boer repub-
lic was modeled—stand indicted
for an offense of singular heinous-
ness in its cruel disregard of human
rights.—St. Louis Republic.
