The restrictions gradually placed la the
way of immigrants to the Transvaal
who wished to acquire citizenship, until
- nslarallzstlon became ' practically lra
possible, were in direct-violation of the
' spirit of the London conventions of 1881
and 1884. The promises then made by
' Kruger to the effect that all white -men
coming Into the country would be
. " treated on a basis of eqaUtyjrUhj;

The Boers wercjtthat time an iloui for

' and Invited Englishmen lo settle In his

But when the foreigners flocked in In
snob eroat numbers (be Boers became
alarmed, and saw that if, admitted to
citizenship, the foreigners and not the

. : They first raised the probationary term
- ot qualification to A ve years, and then to
- fourteen years.'. It was required that the
. prospective citizen should forswear al
legiance to any other State, and even at
; the expiration of the term of probation
lils admission depended npon the will of
- the President and Of the legislative as
sembly, called the Volksraad. t
Thus ft was that the Uitlander, or
v foreign citizen, had no guarantee nor
even assurance of citizenship. :

urged, nence there could be no arbitra

could seek a shady spot. After wait

calf curled up in the hot and stifling
barnyard. The calf, was dead from
the effects of the sun, but the boy was
