born soldiers, if ever there were any such. Should the Government be
unable to adopt the suggestion on a large scale, it might at least try
the Zulus. Many efforts have in the past been made to raise men. The
labours, however, were in each case foredoomed to failure, because the
authorities were not behind the movement, or, if behind it, then only
half-heartedly so.
Amongst those who have interested themselves particularly in this
matter is the late Commandant (Colonel H.T. Bru-de-Wold) whose views,
without professing to be in any way complete, and admittedly based
partly on those of his predecessors and other men, are briefly as
follows: That the Government should form one or more Native regiments
drawn from the different tribes of Natal and Zululand. Lads should be
recruited at the age of fifteen or sixteen from the kraals of the most
respectable and influential Natives in a tribe. They should then be
formed into a permanent force, always to be kept in barracks. Each lad
should be subject to long service, viz. 25, 30 or more years.
A Native location, similar to that of Zwartkop in the neighbourhood of
Pietermaritzburg, would be suitable for the purpose. Permanent barracks
should be erected in the location.
White officers, who should be married men and be most carefully
selected, should reside in or near the barracks with their wives. Only
those should be chosen whose pride of race is highly developed.
The Natives (non-commissioned officers and men) should be allowed to
marry, and the Government might assist them in finding their _lobolo_.
They should, however, each be limited to one wife. The location
should be laid out in plots, conveniently situated, each married
non-commissioned officer or man having his house, with adjoining garden
for growing any desired minor articles, but the principal ration should
be supplied by the Government, so that all would be dependent entirely
on the Government for their food. The married men should be allowed to
keep cattle for milk and to breed horses on their own account.
Any menial work, such as road-making, erecting buildings, etc., on
the location should be done by hired labour, and not by the Native
soldiers. The men should, however, be required to keep their respective
dwelling-houses in repair. The reason for such provision is to keep up
their pride as soldiers, and not demean them by putting them on the
same level as ordinary labourers.
After certain periods to be determined upon, those of good character
might be permitted to go on furlough, in the same way as any other
Native in the service of the Government, when they would receive
remuneration in addition to soldier's pay.
The officers' wives would naturally take an interest in the wives
of n.c.o.'s and men, and provide, with the assistance of the State,
for the education of the children. Thus the institution would, not
only subject the men to strict military discipline, but enable their
children to be educated and instructed in civilized ways of living.
And so, in time, a separate class would be created on a small scale,
the members of which might be designated "The King's Men," whilst the
boys growing up in such environment would themselves become soldiers. A
pride would be fostered in the men, arising out of a consciousness of
being superior to the ordinary tribes. Although, at the outset, drawn
from various tribes, they would gradually lose their tribal instincts
and form a community of their own. Such influences would probably be
more potent and productive of good than any other existing agency that
could be named. But success would, it is felt, be dependent primarily
on the officers.
* * * * *
There are many other details which might have been touched on.
Attention has been drawn to the matter only because it seems wrong for
the Government to refrain from identifying itself with an aspiration
which is, perhaps, more deeply rooted in the people than any other.
If they are ever to be trusted, why not make a beginning on some such
lines as these? To go to them for assistance in time of war, and yet
turn our backs on them in time of peace is not worthy of our race. A
people that is prepared to shed, and has repeatedly shed, its blood for
its rulers, is surely deserving of more recognition than the occasional
issue of medals to a few favoured individuals.
