DEFENCE OF GIBRALTAR,

OPINIONS OF ARTILLERY EXPERTİ.

ness of this bond. A prudent parent gradually loosens the strings of the apron and thereby strengthens the ties of affection.. Six Hubert also pata his finger upon another spot when he refers Mr. Gibson Bowles recently issued a pain to the minute control of the smallest expend. phlet, condemning the site of the new 'hariture, exacted by the Colònial Office. It is the bour and naval döckyard at Gibraltar, but the cause why, he says, in local legislativè assemb- pamphlet is not considered by the military lies, gentlemen nominated to a sext, and there authorities of Gibraltar as stating the whole by recipients of the Queen's commission ap case. Their view may be conveyed as fol- pointing them advisers to Her Majesty, end by lows:-

Creating a kind of opposition to the Govern ment, a course of conduct which is neither more nor less than a political absurdity. The Colonial Office bas, in the past, been hampered by the Treasury in a manner prejudicial to the welfare of the Crown Colonies, and Sir Hubert Jerningham earnestly trusts that' in future the Treasury will realise, as it appears at last to be discovering, that the Colonial Minister is the best judge of the lime and occasion when the younger dependencies require assistance. · A late Governor of the Straits Settlements never ceased to complain that his rich Colony had been put back twenty years by the narrow-mindedness of the Treasury. Whether there should be a Council of the Colonies as there is a Council of India Sir Hubert does not discuss; but there can be no question, he says, that British policy is not sufficiently brought home to the Colonists, owing to the fact that incessant work at the Colonial Office prevents its officers from devot- ing time to the study of Colonies on the spot, while the manner in which the smaller depen- dencies are apparently neglected, forces upon them the belief that they are equally misunder- stood.

If the guns, on the Rock remained silent, 'the disagrecable results pointed out by Mr. Bowles may ensue. But, as our artillery still possesses same fighting value, the probability of serious damage being done by hostile guns emplaced on the Spanish shore is very remote. Artillery experts admit that the cannon at pre- sent in position in Spain could shell the new harbour, but our own guns absolutely dominate then, and could prevent anything like an effective bombardment. In addition to this, the batteries on the Rock facing westwards have been immensely strengthened, ara con- stantly being added to. The points on the opposite shore whence hostile gups could fire are well-known, and are absolutely exposed to our own batteries,

It

One axion followed in an artillery combat is that the attacker cannot secure any real effect until the enemy's fire is first subdued. It is impossible to subdue the fire of Gibraltar, and the British public may rest assured that the new harbour will offer sufficient security, as the whole of the district from which hostile Are can be directed can, also be swept by the projectiles from Gibraltar. The works which at present have been erected on the Spanish shore are beneath contempt. The mobile

do any real injury. - guns are too weak

The suggested harbour on the east side of the Rock, is regarded as impracticable. would also be open to gun-fire. A floating dock would not be a satisfactory substitute for the graving docks now being constructed, as it would be exposed to all, the dangers of tor pedo-boat attack, which the new harbour is built to meet, and could be easily destroyed or Bunk.

If Gibraltar is to be retained as our western naval base in the Mediterranean, a new harbour is believed to be the best solution of a very difficult problem. With sufficient of the new and powerful guns on the western face of the Rock, any possible attack from or, through Spain may be regarded with equani mity.

LONDON'S FAREWELL TO THE ROYAL TOURISTS.

London gave the Duke and Duchess a great send-off.

The weather was not exactly what one would have chosen, coukl ane ever-choose one's own weather, for leaving home on a great ocean voyage.

Yet, in the cold, bleak, blue, gloom there seemed to be something distinctly in sympathy with the occasion. The King and Queen, still in the early days of their great grief, were parting with their only son, sending him away on a journey great in distance, great in the time it would take, but greater still, far greater still, in the responsibilities that hung upon it.

London realised that the moment was AD bistoric one. History repeats itself. But there' never could have been its prototype to this event. The young Duke, who would one day be King, was, with his Duchess, setting out in state to head the festivities that were to inaugurate the birth of a great Commonwealth, an event which will make enduring the new. bond it is to celebrate... Greater still was the occasion. For the visit was not merely, to Australia. It was to all our larger colonies. It was to weld not alone the Australian colonies into one. It was to help to weld all the colo- nies to the Empire which one day the young Duke, as King, would help to rele.

And London knew it and in the serried ranks as they saw the royal couple leave the capital, and in their cheers, there sounded the glorious mission of the visit, not alone send-off to Sovereign's son, but greeting from people to people..

From York House, St. James's, to Victoria station the streets were lined with people. Out- side the station the crowd was an enormous

one,

Among those either saying "farewell" here or going on to Portsmouth to see the royal couple off, and who were awaiting them on the platform, were the Duke and Duchess of Con- naught, Prince Louis of Battenberg, Prince Christian, the Duke and Duchess of Argyll, the Duke and Duchess of Teck, Prince Alexander of Teck, and Lord Clarendon. Punctually at three o'clock came the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall through the cheering of the people. The young couple looked radiant with excite- mest and happiness.

The King and Queen, accompanied, among others, by Princess Victoria and Prince Charles of Denmark, arrived ten minutes later.

The King, looking well, and the Queen, bear. ing evident traces of motherly anxiety, greeted their children. Then they entered their saloon together, and away, amict cheers, went the train.-- The Morning Leader:
