Show Eroger's Dynamite Monopoly. Pretori, March 20. President Kru-ger, Kru-ger, in an important speech at Heildel-berg Heildel-berg recently, emphasized the necessity of the state retaining the dynamite monopoly, because, as he argued, the South African republic being an inland state, in event of trouble with any of the powers, its supplies of explosives might otherwise be suddenly cut off. The president expressed his intention to take over the dynamite factory at the earliest day possible and to work it for the benefit of the country. |
