The war in Acheen proceeded for thirty-four years, and to-day, even id Acheen proper, the natives do not take kindly to the foreign yoke.

Successive governors had tried conciliation and mild measures, including the control of the natives through Achinese mercenaries, who Inrmed part of the garrison," Van Houter was appointed Governor of the Achsen territory, and immediately by rigorous measures restored peace in Acheen proper

Since then he has been occupied with the

wider duties of Lieutenant-Governor of Nether. lands India, and the administration of Acheen has been to the hands of milder men, under whose slack rule things have gone from bad to worse, till the situation has compelled the Dutch Parliament to take prompt steps to effect a stoppage to the constant drain of the national

An expert view, with which General van Heatsz is understood to sympathiso, is that the territary must be subdued with the relent less energy now being shown by the Japanese in subduing the Formosans. It is likely that, following his report, the same thoroughness. will be shown in Achern as he enforces in South Sumatra, Borneo, Timor, Calebes, and Flores..

On the other hand, as "officer of the Dutch Army has stated in the Java Press that one of the chief causes of the trouble has been the unwillingness of the home Government in Holland to sauction the utilisation of sufficient men and money to make a good job of the warfare. The result has been that the Achi wese are more than ever convinced that they' cannot be overcome by a nation conduct- ing a war on such economical lines, and powerlessness has led to the scanty Dutch troops indulging io methods of terrorism and devastation in order to reduce the natives to submission.... 10,short, the war has now sunk to guerrilla tactics of the most cruel kind, especially when native troops are mostly engaged, p

Barharity he found to be thriving amid surroundings of rebellion, hatred, and revenge.. Reports of engagements merely speak of so many Achinese killed, whereas prisoners taken. are coolly shot down whenever their custody hampers the movements of the flying columas.

The rifle bullets used are small and smooth and have no stopping power The soldiers have a way of making them more painful, for they artificially expand them and work them so that they have rough edges. This may be borne in mind, especially when one is remind. ed of the use of the Dumdum bullets in recent years and, the outery, that arose in Holland

theroon.

Finally this officer sums up the evils of the last few years as follows: Lack of wise Govern ment measures, want of confidence in the he.d men, the increasing use of brute force, the utilisation of the patrol force, not for maintain- ing order, but for terrorising the people, the limitation of the pacified ares to the range" of " rifle fire, and increasing vigour given to the rebul party, Press opinions in Java dißer as to the "thorough" policy. Some think it would be throwing good money after had. Others contend that the Government should send wore men' and money and finish the campaign effectively!--Pall Mall Gaurtis
