The danger of dissatisfaction in Cape Colony and the Orange Free State was merely due to the action of the Transvaal. It was not a
question of a five or seven years' franchise, but of the power and authority of the Empire and of the position of Great firitain in South Africa.

The Standard says that the feeling at Pre toria is generally one of indignation and annoy ance, since the Boers believe, that a seven years' residence qualification for the franchise would have sufficed to meet the Outlanders claims; and some people are fearing that the insistance of a minimum term of years by Great Britain implies annexation.
