HAS NOT THE AVERSION TOR WAK CARRILD US TOO FAR?
Human history is a klstery of strife and blood- shed. We deplore the horrors of war and rejolca In the dream of universal peace. Yet we must not fall to recognise that many of our choicest blessings have been won with the sword Through all the fierce and cruel struggles of the past, nature has secured with man, ar with others creatures, that the fittest shall survive. The conquest of Canaan seems accompanied by needless cruelty, but the philosopher, though he sees this, sees more; for he beholde the tahu manity of man overrated for the furtherance of Civilization. He sees "a Power not ourselves,
an Matthew Arnold would say, "making for righteousness." The race has come up" through 'great tribulation," and the fair garments of a Chrisllan civilisation have been made white through blood.

Da we not sometimes make the mistake of imagin Ing that other peoples are animated by the same motives as ourselver, that they will have the same appreciation of generous treatment no we, that their natures can and will reapond to the Toklest appenis, and that it only needs a fair pro- sentation of the advantages of Western cfwliza. _tion_in_secure_their_adoption of it? This is a

Each race has had its own development influenced by its own ideals.

For by helping to arm her with Western ships and rifles we but make her subjection more dif feult when the fisso shall be forced upon us Once we did not healiste to draw the sword China grovelled and promised all things. These promises she has never redeemed. She should be made to feel that henceforth she wil break them at her perli, She has trusted In the past to the mutual jealousles of Kuropean Powers for Immunity from a just retribution. Takoy has done the same, and both have been justified in bundred wars than the suping inaction of the the trust-to car shame, be it sald. Belter a past two years in Turkey, European diplomats ought to ace that our common interest in the extinction of Turkish barbarity and Chinese mis- government will far outweigh the danger to any particular interests that may be involved. More over, the danger is largely imaginary. The sense of justice is very strong in all the European cabinets, and, if cational interests are found to conflict, their adjustment is not impossible. We are told that Russia and England have already come to an understanding. We trust the report is not too good to be true. With these Powers in accord the rest is easy.
