MR. BONAR LAW ON: DEMOCRACY.

AN ECONOMIC ENTENTE.

A LEAGUE OF PEACH,

In an interview with the Fem Tork Temes Mr. Bonny Law said:-AR

The Covermiet is attack ed and is unable to make a defence without reventing things which must be kept soret. The larger the number of people who can have any on the conduct of a war. or who have power to criticize these managing the war, the more diffical; it is to carry it on without opposition, before that if the Gurrament in this county had been based on the ghing had lines to it it to-day in the time of the Napoleonic wars, when the Government was in the hands of the few and the people were not consulted, the result might have been different.
