LORD ESKER ADUITS THE FAILURE OF THE SYSTEM.
"The view that we have reached the limit of the nation's yield for the Territorial Force may be the true viow, and if so, what graver decision lies before the electorate than to choose between leaving the forces of the country below the minimum admitted by to be necessary and imposing by everyone low our children the duty to bour arma

Lord Esher, the most powerful civilian in England, who holds no official position in the Government and yot bas the greatest infreere, has written an article in the September number of the National Review which may safely be tormed "The Doom of the Territorials." Actually ke calls it "The Voluntary System." It is a frank-admission of failure, Lord

It is reported that the directors of the Mid- 60,000 of these Territorial rooraits every year, decide upon and will shortly put into operation His scheme provides that after about four years a scheme for anb-dividing certain lands into. service Territorial soldiers should pass into a 300 acre farms. Each form will be fenced, 100 Territorial Reserve, and this building up of acres cleared and ploughed ready for sowing, hasse (three, reserve of trained men is the essence of the provision made for water supply, a b

50,000 MEN ANNUALLY. For this plan to work well it ie oneontial that about one-fifth of a total of 315,000 men should pass into the resorve every year. For this reason, about 6,000 recruits are annually required.
"In order, therefore, to praside a fighting machine of the size wo nominally possess to-day, including Regulars and Territorials-that is to say, in order that on the summons of war about 600,000 man should stand armed all over the Empire-I mean men bora nail bred in Great Britain, and not Colonial or Indian troops something under 100,000 fresh recruits are annually required.

In its main features this scheme bears a strong resemblance to that put forward some time ago by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company. Under the ordinary system of colonisation au enormous amount of labour is necessary before the emigrand finds himself in possesion of suitable home and an even developed farm. Apart altogether from this aspect of the case, the would-be softler, who may in all other respects be an omi- neatly suitable pormon, is frequently teterred in a now country because from taking up ho lacks the comparatively large capital which must be sunk before he can expect to make a living out of his holding.
The advantage of the plan firat introduced by the Caundinn Pacific Railway, and now more lesa followed by the Midland Railway of Westora Au
Australis,
lies in the fact that the
although Lord Esker is not a distinguished system of mats armed forcoj emigrant can take out his family to a reason-
soldier or a Cabinet Minister, ho is a member of the Imperial Defence Committes, of which Lord Kitchener is not considered worthy to be à member.
EVERY MAN A BOLDIER,
Two points appear prominently in this astonishing docuniont. The first is that wo cannot get the men for the Torritorials, and the Recond that, the voluntary system boving failed, we am face to face with compulsion.
Of irresponsible service he writes:- Tho unpopularity of free military service, as well as gratuitqua service of any kind to the State, becomes more marked with the advance of democracy. No one is more suspicious, perhaps naturally so, than the plutzian.
Io bolieves that he has been exploited for couturies by the wealthier classes, and he at tributes the most sinister motives to the man who is not in his direct pay or employ Any man who works without emolument for the good of the public he associates with lay preach- ors of the Established Churcli, or with its female rotaries, performing sets of charity on bobalf of the Primrose League.

As was the case with the Canadian Pacific scheme, the proposal of the Midland Railway aims primarily at attracting the settler from "There hare host times when it was sathe Old Country, a most desirable feature, in cendingly dificult to get the 30,000 recruits that it tends to preservo the preponderance of Sometimes the British race in our dominions beyond tho wanted for the Regular Army, thase responsible were almost in despair. seas, somewhat threatened as it is by the large On the whole, however, the supply has influx of aliens that has occurred during the big that the 60.000. required anually for

KING AND SHEPHERD BOY.
INCIDENT OF A MOTOR EXCURSION. During a recent motor-car excursion in the neighbourhood of Basace, where he is taking the waters, King Manuel recently met a youthful goatherd tending his flock. Majesty chatted with the boy, questioning him about his native village. The goatherd answered, quite unaware of the identity of the questioner. The King asked if he know how to read, and the boy replied, "No," but said At night when I go to bed my
