THE DOMINIONS AND THE MOTHERLAND.

LONDON, August 5.

There was no more striking example, said Mr. Bonar Law at Folke- stone, of the reality and strength of the moral force in the world to-day than the part played by the British Dominions. The Germans had lost in South Africa territory as large as the Gorman Empire to the force of a self-governing Dominion led by its Premier. The feeling of pride in that. victory was increased' ecormously by the knowledge that the man that fought England only fifteen years ago was the man who gave the word' to stand by the Empire and was standing nobly by it to-day.

Mr. Bonar Law paid high ributes to the deeds of the Canadiens and Australians and said that things would not be the same after the war. The Motherland had already arranged with the Dominions that they should have a say in the peace negotiations. That was a great step but only a stop. He had long hoped and, now believed that the time would come when the whole of the Dominions in proportion to their population and resources. would share with the Motherland in the duty and honour of governing the Empire.
