From the very first, the Hoers and their mom zealous syinna- tlilzers kept the American malls busy In the circulation of oro-boer litera ture, all of it Ingeniously prepared with a view to arousing American commis sion. This activity bus not been coun teracted. Many Americans who havo been In the theater of conflict have undertaken to Infoim their fellow-countrymen of the Rritlsh point of view, hut until the publication of C'onan Doyle's pamphlet, "The "War in South Africa, Its Cause and Conduct," Issued only a few weeks ago, and the voluntary con tribution of merely one Individual Eng lishman, no accurate, comprehensive and well-pieparod statement of tho RrltKh position from an EngltsVi source bus been placed within l each of those Kngllsh-speiiklng republicans of the New World who. although naturally Inclined to sympathize with Ibo under dog In a fight and on general princi ples partial to anything labeled a re public, yet are sufficiently fair-minded to want to read both sides. Of course, so far as immediate re sults aie concerned It did not matter to the Hritish government whether tho Riitih nolnt of view was understood in America or not. It know that It would not be interfered with by any foreign power; that its money would suffice to buy from individual Ameri cans whatever it needed from I hem In the nature of war supplies, and that our neutrality would not be intei'Dieted in the direction of the popular sympathy when that sympathy clashed with the pochelbook. Hence it could alford, Iookin'r to immediate results only, lo let the pro-Hoer ferment go its course. From a political standpoint tills line of reasoning, while somewhat cynical, is characteristic of Lord Salisbury, who at heart has always been very much of an ailsloerat, to whom public opinion counts for nothing so long as It Is un organized and now ei less to enforce it self in legislation. Rut from a higher standpoint, looking to the development of mutual respect and esteem between Great Britain and the Cnlted States the moral unity which Cecil Rhodes had in mind when he framed his monu mental will it lias been unfortunate that tho truth has not been piesented In all its phases. The struggle In now so near to its end that it will soon become possible to consider the whole episode Judicially.
