Discussion of the Peace Term's Between the
English and Boers Effects of the
Storm Other News Notes
An Interesting discussion of the peace
terms between the Kngllsh nnd Boers
wus hotel at the Plymouth Congrega
tional church last evening, tind was en
joyed by a largo audience, many of
whom wno ladles. Tho speakers were
John J. Dnvles and John M. Edwnrds,
of the First Welsh Baptist church
Men's league, nnd Charles E. Daniels
nnd John R. Thomas, of the Plymouth
church Men's league.
D. D. EvntiB, proBldcnt of the latter
league, wus chairman of tho evening,
and was assisted by the secretary,
Tallle M. Evans. A song service pre
ceded tho discussion, and was led by
Richard Phllllpsof the Sherman ave
nue mission, with Miss Ednn D. Evans
as accompanist. Prayer was offered by
Prof. Juntos R. Hughes.
Each of tho sneakers was allowed
fifteen minutes to express his views
on the sub.lect, "Aic the Terms of
Pence Recently Concluded Between tho
British and tho Boers Just to Both
Parties?" John J. Dnvles opened the
discussion, and said It was a hard mat
ter to get four men to agree on u sub
ject of this character, and hnrder to
get four women to agree, nevertheless,
lie was of tho onlnlon that the terms
were very magnanimous.
Ho did not attempt to discuss the
turrits or demerits of tho war just
ended, but thought the peace terms
were just to the Boers, particularly so
from tho fact that eight of the nine
peace commissioners were Boers. The
English government displayed a Chris
tian feeling In the adjustment of the
struggle, and the judgment of the whole
world Is favorable to them for such an
amicable .settlement.
Mr. D.ivles read the terms of peace
mid commented on them as he read,
and but little objection, he said, could
bo made to them, tho only thing being
the acknowledgment by the Boers of
King Edward as their sovereign; but
for them not to acknowledge him would
only mean tho fight over again. An
other thing, he said, In the teaching of
the Dutch language in the schools
there, was the best evidence of Eng
land's magnanimity.
England has established a precedent
fn this matter, bo said, for which they
dri.crvo great credit, and the terms
generally are magnanimous and gen
crnuc. Mr. Daniels, the second speaker,
thought the question has many sides
to It, but the people should not lose
sight of the fact that the Boers struck
the tirst blow In the conflict, which
lasted for so long, and now receive very

courteous treatment at the hands of
their conquerors. In his Judgment the
Boers received fair, equitable, honor
able merciful and magnanimous treat
ment at the hands of tho English gov
ernment. To bo governed by a progressive pow
er, ho said, Is much better for them
than standing still, as has been their
experience for many years, nnd In I1I3
opinion future generations will rlso up
and call the war just ended blessed. It
has cast aside the cloud of Boor retro
gression, yet allowed them to keep their
racial Identity, yet there Is no ques
tion of the supremacy of England In
South Africa, England has only done
what other nations would do under sim
ilar circumstances, but there could be
no more favorable conditions granted
than these.
John M. Edwards read a compiled
statements of facts concerning tho
Boers and their settlement In South
Africa, which proyed very Interesting
nnd Instructive. It contains statistics
from abthorltatlve sources, treating
with tho varloUs conflicts in that coun
try, and he characterized the peace
terms as "fair" In his judgment.
John R. Thomas referred to the effect
that the settlement will have on fu
ture generations, and said it was the
cause of freedom and progress that has
conquered, but It was Independence that
the Boers wanted above everything else
In their struggle, and It must be .ex
ceedingly galling to them to accept
King Edward as their sovereign.
After a solo by John Phillips, Prof.
James R. Hughes and Hy. A. Parsons
expressed their opinions on the sub
ject, and the lady friends of tho Ply
mouth League served refreshments to
their guests. The league will hold an
other meeting one week from next Mon
day evening.
