Upsoning as he did preconceived notions of Chius and Japan, he was subjected to much criticism, criticism which varied in the strength of its condemnation in proportion to the ignorance of his critics. None was more severe upon him than The Spectator. The editorial staff of that raspcctable English journal must feel sorry it allowed the following re- marks to go into print: It cannot be said that he (Mr Curzon) shows that in- stinctive appreciation of international affairs which is requisite for those who undertake to diagnose the conditions of chres auch kingdoms as Japan, Korea, and China... In spite of Mr Curzon, we believe that the weight of opinion is on the side of those who hold, as we do, that Chins cout, if hard put to it, organise a most formidable fighting force. Does Mr Curzon remember what. Lord Wolseley has said on the subject? He was expressed his opinion that the one duugor of the Anglo-Saxoa race was mecting the Chinese in war, and this is no abstract opinion, for Lord The 8.8.
