White, of Hobgood, says that the constitu tional amendment question has made one development in the Stat already, and that ie quite a number of consti tutional lawyers amongst the Republi j 1 -l cans wno oppose tne amendment. Their first argument against it Is that it is unconstitutional. But Mr. White says the amendment will be carried, for Baltimore Sun. it is the one thine North Carolina nseds. AN UNPREJUDICED VIEW OP THE SOUTH AFRICAN STRUGGLE. James A. Qnarles, Professor cf Men tal Philosophy and Economics in Washington and Lee Uniyersity, Compares the Britons and Boers. This assumption of suzerainty is an act of aggression, because, as above stated, such right was relirquished by treaty in 1853 and disavowed by the prime minister, Mr. Gladstone, again in 1882. To emphasize this claim o sovereignty, the British Governmen began to amass a strong force in Natal on the borders of the Orange Free State and the Transvaal, whereupon President Kruger issued his ultimatum declaring this assembling of a hostile force an act of war, which, as a free and independent State, the Transvaal would resist.

WHO WAS THE AGGRESSOR? 1. To locate the responsibility let us see which party was the aggressor. The facts are these : Th Diitnh. miners are a rovi: tbe English, a virile race, were not con- Crown. Thus the aggression of the Briton was begun. The Boers resented this subjugation and, in order to free themselves from British dominion, in 1835, at great sacrifice, emigrated to what is now Natal. In 1842 the British pursued them into this territory, and -again took possession of their country which they had begun to reclaim from its wilderness state. This was tbe second act of aggression on tbe part of the Briton. In 1848 thvy resolved again to leave their homes in order to - liberate them selves from tbe British yoke, preferring the inhospitable wilderness to a state of subjugation. Under tbe lead of An drew Pretorious they made their-noted trek, or emigration, nothward beyond the river Vaal and the Drakenberg mountains. In 1853 tbey were by treaty absolved from their allegiance to the British Crown and formed them selves into tLe two independent repub lic of the Transyaal and the Orange Free State- The third act of, aggression by the Briton took place in .1897, wher a fili- even tbe moat deep-seated, H persistent JaarfcT"1 the territory of the Transvaal," witnHhe pnrpose of overturning the Boer Gov ernment and establishing British su premacy in its stead. This was thwart ed by the capture of Jameson. The fourth and last aggressive act is that which precipitated the present war. It is the assertion of sovereignty ! over the Transvaal by tbe present Brit- ish Government, through Joseph Cham-1 berlain, tbe secretary lor the colonies. : them to become a citizen in this coun try. Why then were they eager to naturalize themselves so speedily in the Transvaal? Manifestly their pur pose was to control, if not subvert, the Government. They refused to renounce allegiance to Great Britain and wished to be cit izens of both countries at once ; this, of course, could not be done except up on tbe plea that the . Transyaal was a colony, or proyiuce of Great Britian. For this reason the British Govern ment put forth tbe claim of suzerainty. Tbe issue, therefore, ot the contest is the independence of the Dutch re publics. Upon this issue the question is simple and undoubted to all repub licans, to all believers in the right of self-government. Written for The Commonwealth. Related to the 22nd : No two lives go through just the same experiences. Mingled with the three great facts birth, life, death, are minor facts as varied and numerous as theminnte3of life. Consequently it is foolish in look ing back at a life thathas been toeuvy the opportunities that came to it and that are denied to us. Another man's opportunities have nothing to do with us except to teach us that to every one great and small in the possession of a natural intellect there come openings for some sort of useiulness to socie'y and to self. In fact to every sensible being is given the chance to take up life at one poict and lay it down at a point somewhere advanced from the point where it was taken up. And m those who know this and yet do not at tempt it there is sin both against so ciety and self. The man who wills to be heard and ielt will be, just to the extent to which he is free from seif-seeking. The man with a great utterance in him, or a great purpose compelling him, speaks and works despite all opposings. There is neyer a poet with a soul on fire but that finds an audience nor never an unselfish builder for others but that has a following. If we talk to an un- echoing world, tbe fault is within and not without. The world always has in some measure an ear for the true ring ui Biucemy in ac utterance, and an eye keen tc note the unselfish service not all the world, for to preach such an idea would be unreasonable : but the world made up ol neighbors and friends. Let us be uutrue there and we naed never hope for an audience outside to make up for those who doubt usnsarby, But true in the little things, faithful in small duties, brave on the battlefield of the heart within it is absurd to talk of limitations. There are most distressing limitations in har vesting results: but the limits ol tin- credited and unharvested influence are no nearer reckoning than are - the bounds of space or the final year of eternity. Let me quote an example that is timely and that cannot be gain said. A poor widow with nine children olten troubled about the mere feed ing of them, does by them all her lull duty just because that is the thing ly ing right straight before he; to be done One of them goes forth, strong in tbe faith bis motner ha taught; millions have felt his power, and they in their turn hand on the influenc of the mother, while Moody and she rest from their labors. The summing up is to humble folk : ion win not iouna an empire, nor mould a nation ; you will not stir a world, nor see your name blazoned high in the temple of fame, but you can be all that your opportunities permit you to be. The greatest man that ever lived was no greater than that. Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages andlessenarnbition; beauty, vigor ana cneertuiness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kid neys. If the child urin ates too often, if th urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy! The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
