What it Would Mean., On this side of the Atlantic stales a writer in a Home journal, we do not seriously think of what war between Great Britain and the United States would mean,
Suppose we do think about it, for "over yonder" some people l are not only thinking but writing about it, and hoping for it. As Mr Frank Crane says in an article in the Chicago Daily News "there is a very considerable element in the United States that is doing its level eat to bring on such a calamity."
In the first place, there is an "ancient grudge, LA Owan Wister has so vividly described for us, born in the war of the revolution and carefully nursed in school histories ever since.
Then there is the fact that for the mab, patriotism is always hate of some other country rather than love of one's own, and Great Britain was our earliest foe:
Bosides these, the natural friction and envy between kin and of late the Irish question have added to the heat.
It is also quite the style for politicians and newspapers of the haser sort to indulge: in the popular pastime of twisting the lion's tail.
It is from such small sparks that great conflagrations grow.
Nobody expected the last great! war. It just growed."
And nobody expects a war between the two great English-speaking Powers. But wars are not plann- ed; they are tremendous explos. ions caused by the growing pile of (1) long taught hates, (2) carefully burtured jealousies, and (3) the possession of great battle fleets or armies.
That, pile is growing. All that) is needed is for some fool to drop a match in it and it will blow up. Some reckless Americani or some) chackle headed Englishman,! given just the right occassion, can bring the horror.
And what would it mean?
It would mean, to begin clasest home, the arming of the Canadian Border. Canadians are loyal to their Empire, and they are good fighters. For many a year we have lived beside this our neigb- bour in the peaceful rivalry of trade. Whose imagination is equal to the unspeakable results of a war upon in widely stretched a border?
It would mean the bombard- ment of New York or London..
It would mean, of course, & clash between the Iwo most powerful Navies in the world. with all the loss of life and property that involves.
It would mean a war infiniery more frightful than the last,, Hince the Germans raged over: only Belguim and parts uf France, while this rain would affect the richest and most populous contres of civilisation.
There is little doubt that to-day what civilitation we have pends upon Great Britain and the United States. If they light. both will be destroyed by the barbarian.
