Lord Sclbornc, who succeeded Lord Milner, in replying tc. addresses and petitions at a farmers' meeting'held at Rusteivberg Road, said it was not reasonable for parents to ask fortho entire control of t'he schoels, as the expenses were borne solely by the Government, and ithe teaching of Dutch was receiving, increasing! attention. 'Two-thirds of the tuacher* were Dutch! The effectiveness of measures «s regards Chinese was being strengthened, and the country would hereafter settle the question of the repatriation of the coolies, but any immediate step in that direction would moan the discharge of 5000 whites, the stoppage' of one- "• third of the mines, and the rod4j[i tion of .revenue, preventing any measures of assistance in various directions craved for. The speech created' an excellent impression, and hearty cheers were given at its close.
