These emigrants primarily consisted <a href="/wiki/Trekboers" title="Trekboers">Trekboers</a>, frontier farmers in the East who had been at the front of the colony's eastward expansion.

href="/w/index.php?title=Jan_Gerrit_Bantjes&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Jan Gerrit Bantjes (page does not exist)">Jan Gerrit Bantjes</a> (1843–1914) discovered signs of gold at Vogelstruisfontein (the first gold sold directly to Cecil Rhodes at Bantjes's camp for £3,000) followed in September by the Struben brothers at Wilgespruit near Roodepoort which started the <a href="/wiki/Witwatersrand_Gold_Rush" title="Witwatersrand Gold Rush">Witwatersrand Gold Rush</a> and modern-day Johannesburg. The first gold mines of the Witwatersrand were the Bantjes Consolidated Mines. By 1886 it was clear that there were massive deposits of gold in the main reef. The huge inflow of <i><a href="/wiki/Uitlander" title="Uitlander">Uitlanders</a></i> (foreigners), mainly from Britain, had come to the region in search of employment and fortune. The discovery of gold made the Transvaal overnight the richest and potentially the most powerful nation in southern Africa, but it attracted so many Uitlanders (in 1896 approximately 60,000) that they quickly outnumbered the Boers (approximately 30,000 white male Boers). </p><p>Fearful of the Transvaal's losing independence and becoming a British colony, the Boer government adopted policies of protectionism and exclusion, to include restrictions requiring Uitlanders to be resident for at least four years in the Transvaal to obtain the franchise, or right to vote. They heavily taxed the growing gold mining industry which was predominantly British and American. Due to this taxation, the Uitlanders became increasingly resentful and aggrieved about the lack of representation. President Paul Kruger called a closed council, including Jan Gerrit Bantjes, to discuss the growing problem and it was decided to put a heavy tax on the sale of dynamite to non-Boer residents. Jan G. Bantjes, fluent in both spoken and written Dutch and English, was a close confidant of Paul Kruger with their link dating to the <a href="/wiki/Great_Trek" title="Great Trek">Great Trek</a> days. Jan's father, Jan Gerritze Bantjes, had given Paul Kruger his elementary education during the trek and Jan Gerritse was part of his inner core of associates. This closed council would be the committee which set the Transvaal Republic on a collision course with Great Britain and the Anglo-Boer War 1899-1902 and which set German feelings toward Britain at boiling point by siding with the Boers. Because of this applied dynamite tax, considerable discontent and tensions began to rise. As Johannesburg was largely an Uitlander city, non-boer leaders there began to discuss the proposals for an insurrection. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Cecil_Rhodes" title="Cecil Rhodes">Cecil Rhodes</a>, Prime Minister of the Cape Colony, had a desire to incorporate the Transvaal and the Orange Free State in a federation under British control. Having combined his commercial mining interests with <a href="/wiki/Alfred_Beit" title="Alfred Beit">Alfred Beit</a> to form the <a href="/wiki/De_Beers" title="De Beers">De Beers Mining Corporation</a>, the two men also wanted to control the Johannesburg gold mining industry. They played a major role in fomenting Uitlander grievances. </p><p>Rhodes later told the journalist <a href="/wiki/W._T._Stead" title="W. T. Stead">W.T.

Jameson and his force would dash across the border to Johannesburg to "restore order" and with control of Johannesburg would control the gold fields. </p><p>However, while Jameson waited for the insurrection to begin, differences arose within the Reform Committee and between Johannesburg Uitlander reformers regarding the form of government to be adopted after the coup. At a point, certain reformers contacted Jameson to inform him of the difficulties and advised him to stand down. Jameson, with 600 restless men and other pressures, became frustrated by the delays and, believing that he could spur the reluctant Johannesburg reformers to act, decided to go ahead. He sent a telegram on 28 December 1895 to Rhodes warning him of his intentions – "Unless I hear definitely to the contrary, shall leave to-morrow evening" – and on the very next day sent a further message, "Shall leave to-night for the Transvaal". However, the transmission of the first telegram was delayed, so that both arrived at the same time on the morning of 29 December, and by then Jameson's men had cut the telegraph wires and there was no way of recalling him. </p><p>On 29 December 1895, Jameson's armed column crossed into the <a href="/wiki/South_African_Republic" title="South African Republic">Transvaal</a> and headed for <a href="/wiki/Johannesburg" title="Johannesburg">Johannesburg</a>. They hoped that this would be a three-day dash to Johannesburg before the Boer commandos could mobilise, and would trigger an uprising by the Uitlanders. </p><p>The British <a href="/wiki/Secretary_of_State_for_the_Colonies" title="Secretary of State for the Colonies">Colonial Secretary</a>, <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Chamberlain" title="Joseph Chamberlain">Joseph Chamberlain</a>, though sympathetic to the ultimate goals of the raid, realized it would be a mistake since the uitlanders were not supportive. He immediately tried to stop it, remarking that "if this succeeds it will ruin me. I'm going up to London to crush it". He rushed back to London and ordered Sir <a href="/wiki/Hercules_Robinson,_1st_Baron_Rosmead" title="Hercules Robinson, 1st Baron Rosmead">Hercules Robinson</a>, governor of the Cape Colony, to repudiate the actions of <a href="/wiki/Leander_Starr_Jameson" title="Leander Starr Jameson">Jameson</a> and warned Rhodes that the company's charter would be in danger if it were discovered the Cape Prime Minister was involved in the raid. Chamberlain therefore instructed local British representatives to call on British colonists not to offer any aid to the raiders.<sup id="cite_ref-Marsh1994_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Marsh1994-17"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/da/Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg/220px-Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="169" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/da/Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg/330px-Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/da/Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg/440px-Leander_Starr_Jameson00.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1550" data-file-height="1193" /></a><figcaption>Arrest of Jameson after the raid – <i>Petit Parisien</i> 1896</figcaption></figure> <p>Although Jameson's men had cut the telegraph wires to Cape Town, they had failed to cut the telegraph wires to Pretoria (cutting a fence by mistake). Accordingly, news of his incursion quickly reached Pretoria and Jameson's armed column was tracked by Transvaal forces from the moment that it crossed the border. The Jameson armed column first encountered resistance very early on 1 January when there was a very brief exchange of fire with a Boer outpost. Around noon the Jameson armed column was around twenty miles further on, at <a href="/wiki/Krugersdorp" title="Krugersdorp">Krugersdorp</a>, where a small force of Boer soldiers had blocked the road to Johannesburg and dug in and prepared defensive positions. Jameson's force spent some hours exchanging fire with the Boers, losing several men and many horses in the skirmish. Towards evening the Jameson armed column withdrew and turned south-east attempting to flank the Boer force. The Boers tracked the move overnight and on 2 January, as the light improved, a substantial Boer force with some artillery was waiting for Jameson at <a href="/wiki/Doornkop" title="Doornkop">Doornkop</a>.

When this was disclosed in the British press, it raised a storm of anti-German feeling. Dr. Jameson was lionised by the press and London society, inflamed by anti-Boer and anti-German feeling and in a frenzy of <a href="/wiki/Jingoism" title="Jingoism">jingoism</a>. Jameson was sentenced to 15 months for leading the raid, which he served in <a href="/wiki/Holloway_Prison" class="mw-redirect" title="Holloway Prison">Holloway</a>.

As further punishment for his support of Jameson, the highly decorated Col. Rhodes was placed on the retired list by the British Army and barred from active involvement in army business. After his release from jail, Colonel Rhodes immediately joined his brother Cecil and the British South Africa Company in the <a href="/wiki/Second_Matabele_War" title="Second Matabele War">Second Matabele War</a> taking place just north of the Transvaal in Matabeleland.
