London, Sept, Li.
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1913.
Hon Mr. EH. L. Gorges, ra, the British Adminstrator of the Protectorate of South-West Africa; has presented one of the most sensational reports ever issued in connection with German colonial methods. It constitutes & most damning indictment of German fitness to rule black native races and a brimful of well-authenticated instances of rapine, murder and lust, of chicanery sad khavery and of -despolisuun of the simple and harmless natives of South- West Atre. The ertuence oh which the repurt is based is drawn from oticial orgian documents at Windhuk, from aworn statements by native chiefs and Europeans familiar with the country and from the writings of Leutwein, who was Governor from, 1884 to 1905, Doctor Paul Rohrbach, Professor Doctor Karl Dove and other unimpeachable Ger Altogether the report constitutes a telling reply to Dr. Solf's recent claim that "Germany's pre-war humane treatment of native races had won for her the moral right to be a great culonial power."

clain the following · statement
by the Hon. Mr. Gorges is interesting.-Native opinion here is unanimously against any idea of their ever being handed back to the tender mercies of Germany. Any suggestion of a possibility of an act of this kind on the part at Britain produces the utmost consternation." The Report snows that the first twenty-five years of German rule in South-west Africa was an unbroken record of official bad. ait, private oppression and cruelty, the barbarities and robberies culminating in the Herero and Hottentot rebellions. During the first seventeen years there was no law for the natives and such protection as the law eventual ly provided was not dictated by considerations of human ny, but in order to exploit the natives as labourers. When the Germans first arrived, says Mr. Gorges, they entered into agreements with the nature chiefs, but these became scraps of paper and the natives were trandulently deprived of their best land. Traders and settlers robbed them of their cattle which was their only wealth and the Isw subse quently prevented the natives possessing large stocks. The natives were thus driven to work for ridiculously inadequate, wages. Often they were never paid. They were treated ake slaves and their womenfolk were habitually maltreated Germans who took them into forced concubinage. inese were some of the things which, goaded, the natives mté rebellions, which were suppressed by ruthless cruelty resulting in the practical extermination of the three tribes involved. The hereros were reduced from 80,000 to 15,100, the Hottentots from 20,000 to 9,500 and the Berg Damaras from 30,000 to 12,500. Thus eighty per cent. of the Herero people disappeared and more than half of the Hottentots anu, berg Damaras shared the same fate. How it was done. was supersede the leurent Governor Leutwein by the Deterious Trotha fresh "from ex-German East Africa where be suppressed zu Arab rebellion by a wholesale massacre, frotha 188ued an “extermination" order by the terms of which no Herero man, woman, child or babe was to receive mercy "ur quarter. "Kill every one of wem and take no prisoners" be said. These orders were oris too faithfully earned out. There is, for instance, the story of Trotha's native ex-groom, who describes how he was once ordered to kill a young dierero woman. He refused in disgust waere- apoa..a Gerikan soldier showed him how do it then held the bayonet dripping with blood before his face. Officers and soldiers were standing around, but none interfered on behalf of the woman. Another occasion was when Ger man soldiers played ball with a nine-month babe. They got tired of this sad finished the game by catching the wee inite on the point or a fixed bayonet. transfiring its body amidst the bendish laughter or wie gamesters who seemed to think it a great joke. A radable witness deposed that be was two years with Trotha and knows to instance of pris oners being spared. Even atter the rebelnos the surviving natives lared but little better. Use of the most significant documents in the report. is a secret circular "addressed in alz by Governor Seitz to magistrates. Therein te refers to the most desperate teeling becoming, prevalent among the natives. The reason," he states, "which is unanimous- ly given for this act is that the brutal excesses of europeans. against the natives are alarmingly increasing. it is much to be regretted that even Police officers become guilty of such offences in a few cases, and suen offences, go unpunished by the courts of law in the way they ought to be according w our sense of jusuce to the mauves" Mr. Gorges supplies sworn statements of natives which give some idea of the reign of terror existing among the amaves. Mr. Gorges adds instances of cruelty, injuce and barbanism might be maitaged anest indefinitely instances of gross bestial Conduct, which for sneer deprivity and immoranty are well nigh unbelievable, are also cuntamen in a file of tidavits, but they are hardly n.1or pabucation."
Part two of die neport deas at length with the position of the natives before we ws. Luxuruinaxe governing criminal jurisdiction over the mauves contau jurovision repugnant to every conception of justice, Aatives were nut tried in the ordinary courts but by officers who also und Fouce duties and bad authority to delegate their judicia powers to subordinate omerais. Imprisonmicos in coalfs aliach, Bogging were allowed, not only for serious crimes but sa amsciplinary measure" on the application of at emproyer ur tor uffences agaut tue Master and Bervants law, for example, for subordination or continued idleness or neglect of duty. From the records of the German courta It isċcisar, that native evidence was habitually disregarded and the natives were not allowed to give evidence on oth The natives were thus kept in a stále of abject fear. No opportunity, of redress was open to them. They dared not go to the Police with complainte, Crimes by Germans, how- ever, against natives were either hushed up or tolerated by ine courte with amazing lementy. The case or Lieut. Yenuleth is a striking commentary on how the German vaunts his superior avilisation. This officer. held a court martial on apstive man and woman for a stock theft. He constatated himself President of the court and supplied practically the only evidence taken with the result that the DELAVOS-Were-condemned and shot. The poor creatures were not even present at their so-called tried but were sentenced in their absence Lieut. Yentlech was subsequently arrest ed by the British authorities and tried for murder. Another ugly occurrence was a savage masault by Ludwig Cramer on certain native women two of whom were flogged zo severely that they died, yet the cure only imposed" four months" imprisonment and a fine of £130.
Grassome photographs are given in the report of bang-" ings and floggings of natives Executions were carried out in s manner which would have been considered brutal two hundred years ago.
