A SIGNIFICANT ADMISSION.
The bureau of immigration has ad-

Porto Rico.
Th- reason given by the bureau of-
ficials is that these laborers are Ameri-
can citizens.

from Washington, whence forecasts of

not mere guerrilla warfare.
Wha<-v-r an optimistic British gov-
ern me-.t may say of the situation in
South Africa, there can no longer be
any pretens- that the Boer r-gistunce
has dwindled down to mere guerrilla
warfare.
Guerrillas da not campaign in bodies
of 2,000 with artillery and commissary
trains, nor do they besiege and cap-
ture fortified position*, taking 400
prisoners and many cannons. The
capture of IX- Wetsdorp by the Boers
is conclusive proof that the conquest
of the Afrikander territory is far from
accomplished. Reports of growing
disaffection In Cape Colony and Natal
warrant the belief that possibly it has
only begun,
