THE STRATEGICAL VALUE OF THE CHANNEL ISLANDS,

In the event of war between Great Britain' and France, the first and most important part of the struggle would be for the command of the sea.

Should Great Britain succeed in retaining the command of the sea, France would thereby be reduced to a condillon of impotente, so far as offensive operations are concerned, and would sooner or later beoblig. ed to submit to the will of her rival, although, it is true, the war might last for a long time, If, on the other hand, France should succeed in wresting from Great Britain the command of the sea and in keeping it, Great Britain would be so much more hopelen and impotent than France in similar plight would be, that the war would terminate quickly. In a word, France, even without the command of the sea or anything approaching to it, re mains capable of prolonged resistance, first, because she is self-supporting. country; secondly, because the French nations santi nient and strength are already concentrated within her borders; and thirdly, because she stands among the best-equipped of the military Powers; while Great Britain, deprived of the command of the sea, would collaps with relative rapidity, because she is in no use a self-supporting country; because her national sentiment and strength are scattered over the world, and cannot be concentrated savely way of the sea; and, thirdly, because the it not a military Power according to the standed set up by Germany, France, Russia, and Austria- Hungary.

These are truisms, but I recite thèm here in order in recall to the reader how vitally im- portant it is for Great Britain never to the the command of the sea, and, in peace time, to take such steps.as may justify her in being able to count upon retaining the command is war.

I believe that in neglecting, as the now does, the offensively defensive value of the Channel Islands, she is deliberately wasting oneof the most favouring features of her general strate-Devenport, Dr. gical position; a feature, moreover, which is far more favouring now than it has eve been } hitherto and which must become far more favouring in the future than is even an ency, not possessed of the command of the sea, could seize Jersey, Guernsey, or Alderney so long as, in the midst of those islands, lay, ready for action, a flotilla d'des. trayers in touch with a fleet or fleets in the Chinach, Nor, even granting that Jersey, Guernsey, and Alderney had been sized, would the system break down, provided, of course, that the depot were in ferm and not Guernsey. The system would be rendered somewhat less efficient for the time being; but the large islands could not be held for long. while the British fleet maintained its supremacy; and cre big guns could be mounted în Guern. sey-if indeed they could be mounted there at all in face of the guns in term, Jetha, and Sark-Guernsey and the other large islands would be recovered and the entire ystem would be re-establislied. To attempt i coup

be hopeless-Nineteenth Century.

In size, strength, sharp Karge, T. and positive purpose, Prussia is so much the Knight superior, not alone of any other German State, Luk Cheuk Man but, of all the others put together, that the Leslie, H. quasi-Federal Empire is really a Prusimised | Levick Germany. This fact is naturally not pleasing to many Germans, combined as it is with the unlovely aspects of a stern bureaucratic rigime. But, on the other hand, a great price had to be paid for German unity, and that price was Prussian headship of the Empire. The de- 'mocrats of i848 had tried their hands at the problem of unity and bad failed; and that being so, it was a question of hegemony under Austria or Frussia. Sadowa proved Austrian headship to be impossible, and the Franco German War, whether provoked by bimor not, gave Bismarck the needed opportunky for erecting a German Empire on a Prussian foun- dation. It was not, as all South German feel, an ideal solution, but it is done, and it is one of the signal facts of modern history,

But the total result could never have been effected had thero not been a remarkable unity Among the people, and a complete co-optation with the Government. Democratic opposition, of course, there has been, and is; but few, if Any Governments have more thoroughly car ried their people with them. The bodypolitic of Prussia reminds one of that of an fhlete, wall knit together, with no encumbarity mat- ter, with muscles strong as steel. It is not bean pampered, but has been compelled to plain living and high thinking. Its res time of trial has just begun, for it has bags to be rich and luxurious. Within a single, gen eration the economic basis of Prassita la Kas been changed-to what an immense degree the census statistics just published show Will the steely armour of the old-fashioned Passian stand the test of accumulated wealth, capitalist speculation, commercial rivalry, and huge Agglomerations of population in place of the simple homestead of an earlier time! The world will watch the influence of the new environment with deep interest, for with the decline or the expansion of German life the fortunes of mankind are largely bound up, and that life, we repeat, in its political expassion,
