THE BRITISH AT INCE the capture of Pretoria the war in South S Afri if it continue long, must enter upon a new phase. The organized national resistance which has hitherto opposed the British advance will have to give place to guerrilla warfare. It is true that in the War of the Revolution the British cap- tured the capital of the Continental Congress at Philadelphia without thereby crushing the colonies or their armies, but the military conditions of the present war are widely different from those that pre- vailed in 1776. Washington had to contend against no such force as that which has invaded the Transvaal, neither had he to face a General of anything like the ability and energy of Roberts. The American pa- triot could after the fall of his capital hold his army | together, but the forces of Kruger must of necessity scatter or surrender. What course the Boers will pursue remains to be seen. They have lost not only their capital, but the two leaders on whom they most relied for success. Joubert is dead and Cronje is a prisoner of war in ile at lelena. They have no force strong | enongh to resist Roberts’ flanking tactics, nor any General skillful and energetic enough to defeat them by superior strategy and activity. The war, which began with brilliant successes for the Afrikanders, has virtually ended. A great hope has been lost in | that far-off part of the world, and the long cherished aspiration for a free Afrikander nation under a repub- lican form of government has perished. ! British and foreign adventurers will hasten to the land here there is such a promise of gold, and in the end | the old Boer element will be swallowed up in the mas: | of the new population. An independent South Africa may be established in another generation, but it will not be a nation of Dutch people. At the beginning all ‘the portents of the time | threatened that the war would be one of the bloodiest | of modern times. The stories of the slaughter of the | British in their early attempts to relieve Ladysmith went far to confirm the statement attributed to Kruger that if the British ever conquered the Trans- | vaal it would be at a cost that “would stagger hu- manity.” The tactics of Roberts, however, changed whole outlook, and of late the contest has been carried on with but a comparatively small loss by the | invading force. | A recent British statement of the total losses of | their armies is to the efiect that up to the capture of | Johannesburg 2322 men and officers had been killed in battle, 571 had died of wounds received in action, | 2402 from discase, 54 from accidents, and 49 in cap- ty, making a total of 5588 deaths. In addition the | British forces were weakened by 4330 men missing | and prisoners, 801 sent home as invalids and 10,130 wounded, in addition to those who had died of Ewnunds up to that time. | The whole casualties—killed, died, wounded, miss- | ing, prisoners and invalided—makes an aggregate loss of 28049. That is not a heavy list for seven months of war. A writer for the Philadelphia Ledger | in reviewing the battle of Gettysburg stated that the killed, mortally wounded and missing on the Union side alone in that single battle were 23,001, or more than the total British losses in the Transvaal, if we exclude the sick sent home as invalids.

It may be as cruel in its objects and as re- morseless in its march as ever, but it is no longer so ! deadly. (T EPORTS from the managers of the California Cured Fruit Association are to the effect that the association has failed to obtain control of R oc per cent of the prune crop of the State as required | by the terms of its original programme of action, and | consequently some medification of the plan will have | to be made. Not only were the contfacts with the packers dependent vpon the association obtaining that percentage of the prune crop, but many of the | growe tanding. In order that something may be accom- plished this year a modified plan has been submitted, and it now depends upon the growers whether it is | to be carried through. While the association has failed to obtain the full percentage desired of the prune crop it has neverthe- less attained a strong position and has now unde contract 9o per ‘cent of the prune acreage oi Sa Clara County and 8o per cent of the whole State, mounting in the aggregate to 53,000 acres. Upon 1at basis the managers of the association have asked the packers to modify their original contracts in the g particulars: irst—By striking cut the provision guaranteeing prices when once made by the board, leaving the same to be changed from time to time in its discre- tion. “Second—That they waive their demand of go per cent of the crop and leave the question of percentage of the crop to be secured to the decision of the man- agement of the association. “Third—That they agree not to deal with any broker or jobber who would not limit his dealings in followi or sales of prunes to those controlled by the associa- | tion, Fourth—To do away with price the incentive to cut and to simplify the transaction of their busi- ness with the association, that they agree to organize into a corporation and deal with the association as one person. The packers are reported to have unanimously given their consent to the modifications, but some of ! the growers have been slow in responding to circulars requesting their agreement. At a meeting of the di- rectors last Monday, ten days after the modification circulars were sent cut, it was announced that no answers had been received from about 10000ut of the 3300 members. Upon that showing the board of.di- rectors adopted resolutions. declaring it to be the judgment of the association that 80 per cent of the prune acreage of the State, including 9o per cent of | that of Santa Clara County, would be necessary to warrant an attempt {o assume control of the crops, and therefore that the time for receiving consent to the modifications be extended to’ June 15; if on that date the desired percentage shall not have been ob- ained the association will cease and the responsibility of failure rest on the grower. Such is the situation that confronts the prune- growers of the State. This is for them the hour of opportuni By prompt action they may establish a co-operative association that, learning by experience and growing with the demands put upon it, will be- | come eventually an institution of the highest value to them. If the opportunity be lost there is no telling ;when another so favorable or so promising will be | offered. This is the age of co-operation, and the | sooner the fruit-growers of the State learn to practice | that principle the better it will be for them. | S ——————— j THE NEW YORK DODGE. ILL and Croker, the rival aspirants for the con- H trol of the Democratic machine in New York, have disappointed expectation. It was thought that between them there would be an open fight in | the State convention for leadership and such honors as attend the position, but what happened was a com- | promise and a division of dishonors. | Hill had declared himseli opposed to the Chicago | platform and opposed to sending to the national con- vention a delegation instructed for Bryan. Croker | had declared for both the Chicago platform and for an instructed delegation. By the compromise agreed upon the State convention ignored the Chicago plat- form, but gave the instructions. | The advantage of the situation is with Croker, not- | withstanding reports fiom New York declare the con- vention to have been largely under the control of Hill. The free silver men demanded an express in- dorsement of their financial creed, and the only way Hill could find to avoid a faction fight then and there was to declare that by instructing the delegates to the lnationnl convention to support Bryan a sufficient in- | | | dorsement was given to Bryan’s platform. There was no getting away from the logic of the statement, and the silver men were content with it. The voters of | the country will take the same view of the situation. A vote for Bryan will be a vote for free silver coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1. While making that concession to Tammany and | the silver men Hill has tried to provide for himself !a chance to dodge the charge of supporting now a i policy which he refused to support in 1806. He was | himself chairman of the committee on resolutions, and the financial plank reported by him declares: “We favor both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, the money of the constitution | and of our fathers—each to be maintained at a parity with the other in purchasing and debt-paying power— | which has been the steadfast policy of the Democratic party since the days of Jefferson, who declared that ‘the monetary unit must stand on both metals.” ” Doubtless the astute sage of Wolfert's Roost can explain the vagueness of that plank in many ways to suit many men of many minds. It may serve some purpose which he has in, view, but it is not likely to deceive any voter of fair intelligence. It is in vain that any party or any faction in this campaign de- clares for the “money of the constitution” or the “monetary policy of , Jefferson.” The people are aware that Bryan stands ‘for free silver coinage, for ":v. dgpreciation of the monetary standard, for fifty- | cent dollars, and they are alse aware that whoever supports Bryan is a supporter of the Bryan policy as expressed in the Chicago platform. The explanation of the course taken by the rival leaders is that both of them believe Bryan to be doomed to defeat, but each thinks that Democracy can achieve local victories. By standing in with the Bryanites and holding the party together Croker be lieves Tammany can make doubly sure of carrying the whole of the matropolis of Greater New York. Py climinating the Chicago platform and all 'its fol- lies Hill believes it possible for Demoeracy to carry the State. Thus while Croker is willing to swallow the whole Chicago output, platform and candidate, Hill desired to get rid of both. He was not able to | carry his plan in every respect, but he means to use his platform for home purposes and let Bryanism fall | by the wayside. It is one of the kind of dodges for which Hill is noted, but will in the end prove as unprofitable as most of the others which he has tried in the course of his political adventures.

Action Will Result in Increasing the Municipal Stcck of Money | and Cut Down the Deficit. ! e The Board of Supervisors met in session yesterday afternoon and resolutions intended to bring certain moneys into the city treasury which are | to be applied toward the prospective municipal deficit. . The first resolution directs the Tax Collector to accept the taxes of person porations on personal property and real | | estate amounting to $9 of which the | city will receive about $60,000. These taxes | were recently tendered in payment by the property owners, who refused to pay taxcs oh certain bonds since held by the | | Supreme Court to be unassessable. The | | resolution recites: i | " Resolved, That on account of the condition of the city's’ funds and without establishing a | | brecedent the Tax Collector be and is hereby | directed to receive and collect from such per- | | assoclations and corporations the total amount of personal property and real estate | taxes assessed to them, excepting the taxes on such bonds as were decided by the Supreme | | Court in the case of the Germania Trust Com- | pany, appeliant, vs. the ecity and county of San Francisco pondent, as not assessable ctations or corporations. Auditor be and he is | hereby directed ncel the penalties pro- | vided to be collected by statute from delinquent taxpayers from such persons, associations and corporations who tendered their taxes less the amount of the taxes on the bonds clatmed not | to be assessable to them, provided the said | taxes are paid before July 1, 1900. | The Mayor said he had been informed | | by State Controller Colgan that the latter | would be guided in the matter of the | | State’s interest in the taxes by the advice of the Attorney General as to whether the penalties for delinquency could be waived. | Colgan_had telephoned to Tax Collector Scott that the State would not waive the penalty, bute letter explaining the mat- ter would be mailed to reach here this morning. Scott says, however, that the State IS not concerned with the penalty but that it is a city proposition solely. He | intends to get the opinion of the City At- | torney as to whether the Board of Super~ visors may order the waiving of the pen- | alty. Tiw assessment on personal property on which the taxes are mnow delinquent | amounts to $5,072,859, divided among vari- | ous corporations. | The real estate delinquent taxes are: Bank of California, $1426 25; German Bank, 571 89; Savings and Loan Society, $698 46; Security Savings Bank, $138 55; Columbus Savings and Loan Society, $546; La So- | | ciete Francaise, $29 34; San Francisco Sav- | ings Union, $3277 98; Union Trust Com- pany, $2750 63; Fair estate, $1340 65; Mackay | & Dey, $32910. Total, $11,668 34. 4 A resolution was also adopted directing | | the City Attorney to take measures to | determine the rights of the city regarding | | the commissions on poll taxés and col- | | Jateral inheritance taxes, with a view to | | having the moneys transferred to the mu- nicipal funds. The resolution says: Whereas, The poll tax receipts and the col- lateral inheritance tax receipts belong to the | State school fund, but the commissions for the collections thereof pald by the State are in | dispute; and | Whereas, The Treasurer has in his custody the poll tax receipts deposited by the As- | sessor, settlement of which will be made ac- | Cording to law with the State on the first| Monday of July, and also the commissions on the collateral 'inheritance tax, collection of | which Is made by the Treasurer and settle- ment with the State already made on May 7;_and Whercas, The charter requires all fees to be pald into the treasury for the city, but the State law allows the fees to the Assessor and | Treasurer respectively, which has caused a conflict of authority; therefore be it Resolved, What the City Attorney be re- quested to immediately take proper legal steps fo determine the city’s rights and dutes in | the premises and to enforce the same. | The ordinance empowering the Board of Health to quarantine persons, houses and districts when in its judgment it is deemed necessary to prevent the spread of Infectious or contagious diseases was finally passed. The consideration of the ordinances ex- tending the ?nund limits to the county line | and regulating the construction of thea- | ters was deferred until next Monday. The resolution authorizing William F. Nolte to kill migrating birds within the | city limits in the interest of science was Fnssed to print. Nolte’s application was ndorsed by President Jordan of Stan- ford University. Picnic Among the Redwoods.
