SATURDAY. DECEMBER 2. 1899.
OUR COUNTRY : First. Last and Forever.
Tub Heed rules tire to be in force
in the House of Representatives at
the coming session. This conclusion
was reached at a conference of the
Republican leaders.
It is refreshing to know that al
most every foreign country Is anxious
for a coalition witli the United States.
Englaud and Germany are just now
casting longing eyes in this direction.
This country has shown its .nrpwees
in thej:ecaivV8paTil8nuSi)ieasantne8s.
Swindling Syndicates.
It is probable that as long as there
are people who can invent schemes
by which other people are to get
something for nothing, or enormous
returns for .very small investments,
just so long will dupes be found, and
men and women will risk their savings
in the hope of acquiring sudden
riches.
The publio has had a number of
sharp and severe lessons with "get
rich quick" societies, uud it would
seem that the experience which the
people bad with these should have
proved sufficient to make them steer
clear of them. But with each new
scheme there crops up a fresh lot of
lambs ready for the sacrifice.
The latest fleecing machine, which
has just been closed up in Brooklyn
by the police, and which was known
by .the honest name of Franklin
Syndlcate.promlsed to pay its patrons
at the rate of 520 per cent, per annum
on their investments. The offer of
such preposterous gains should have
been sufficient to cause any one to
hesitate before investing their money.
But judging from the record made by
the Syndicate, the money fairly
poured into the headquarters of this
latest swindling concern.
Whatever assets may have been
seized by the authorities it is certain
that but little of the money invested
will ever find its way back Into the
pockets of the investors. The number
of investors is so large, and the avail
able assets seized are so- small, that
the amount for each one will be in
significant. Those who have been
bitten will probably profit by their
experience.
It has been, doubtless, in many of
the cases, an illustration of the old
adase. "A fool and his money are
soon parted."
Almost from the outset of the
British occupation of Cape Colony,
pays a writer in the Engineering
Magazine, there was friction between
the two main classes of settlers, who,
though distinctly of the same generic
stock, failed to assimilate in the
friendly manner of the Dutch and
English in the settlement of New
Amsterdam, called New York after
the transfer. The Boers have always
claimed, and honestly believed, that
they wpre oppressed; which asser
tion impartial history cannot be said
to have sustained. Great Britain, at
least for more than a century, and
also at least as regards tier white sub
jects, has been scrupulously careful
in dealing with colonial affairs. In
this instance, one grievance seems to
have been as to the abolition of
slavery, which was suppressed at
about the same period in the British
West Indies on a similar adjustment
The Boers, however, were incensed
on not receiving compensation satis
factory to them. This, combined with
many other and pre-existing causes.
real and imaginary (suoh as extreme
love of personal and national inde
pendence, racial antipathy, divergent
customs and ways of thought) led to
the further dispersion of the Boers
