LORD ROBERTS ON NATIONAL

RIFLE CLUBS.

Lord Roberts has addressed an impres sive appeal to the nation-to-take to heart the necessity for encouraging rifle shooting as a national pursuit, and for establishing a system of obligatory physical training, He estimates that, to put on a satisfactory footing the scheme for the general establish. ment of rifle clubs throughout the country, at least £100,000 will be required, and invites subscriptions. In the course of his appeal he says:—

*If the war teaches anything it is this, that throughout the empire-in the United Kingdom, its Colonies, and dependencies- there is a reserve of military atrangth which for many reasons we cannot, and do not wish to, convert into a vast standing army, but to which wo may be glad to turn to again in our hour of need, as we did in 1899. I entirely agree with this opinion. Before the South African war our military organisation did not contemplate the pos- sibility of our having to despatch ́ ́auross- the seas any force larger than two army corps and a cavalry dision—that is to say, about 80,100 men. For that war we had 1378 suddenly to improvise an army of 250,000 It should be remembered that the nation is liable to other and even more serious contingencies then those wa had to face in South Africa. If these continge encies should arise, I have no doubt that the Auxiliary Forces of the United King dm and the local forces of our Colonier will again give most valuable assistance to the Regular Army; but, in the last resort, the independence of a Stato depends not only on the willingness but the ability of the nation as a whole to take up arms in self-defence.

Lord Roberts's appeal finds hearty ap- proval among the troops at Aldershot. All ranks are keen to respond to it. Major. Gen. Sir Alfred Turner-declared that if only Earl Roberta's scheme for a network of rifle clubs throughout the kingdom could be carried out, it would add yet another

The letter from Lord Roberts was 'com.

mented on with strong approval by General Lord Mothuen at Cambridge on June 13. The occasion was the unveiling of the Cambridgeshire war memorial, which has been erected outsido the cast end of Great St. Mary's Church, Cambridge. Speaking in the presence of a large assemblago, re- presentative of the University, the town, And the county, Lord Methuen suid that, while paying tribute to those who had given their lives for their country, we had to look to the future, and he specially urged

· upon those responsible for the teaching of the empire the education required for their corps of offic:18. Whether in universities -or public schools they asked for a practical education, such as the oflicers in the Navy received in their profession, and such as tho Army required. Again, on those who could influence the training of boys at public schools, he would urge the necessity of recollecting what Lord Roberts said in his letter published that day, that eight-tenths

BRITISH LABOUR QUESTIONS. RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR.

The labour question has been much to the fore this week says a London corto- spondent last month. In the first place, we have our own strikers marching on London—a movement which is discouraged by the leaders of the Labour party, who think it will only add to the number of the unemployed in the metropolis, and will have no good effect. Then we have a direct and immediate appeal from Mr Chamberlain to the working classes based on the assumption that his fiscal policy will bring 'two jobs for ung man,' which is not generally accepted by the dis- contented working classes. Then, which is of more importance, there are the meetings in the East End of London in regard to the Aliona Bill--meetings of

They claim-and this I believe to be indisputable-that the dis- Cricts in which they congregate are infinitely more orderly and sober than they were be- fore the Jewish immigration of lato years set in. I have certainly never heard this questioned by the police authorities, in spite of the fact that we do sometimes find a very undesirable class of immigrant at the East End police courts. The men appear to be quite happy to compromise the matter, and fat, exclude people of their own country and their own faith who can really be shown to be criminals or diseased; but none of them were happy at the idea of being in any way ostracised in this country; and without being ultra-patriotic, I must say that I never yet know an immigrant to our shores, rich or poor, who did like it. I once asked one of these East End Jews for an explan- ation on the point, and I only got the We are happy here.' I have answer, before remarked on the fact that these
