PENETRATING THE BRITISH PROTECTORATE."

Recognising that without support outside the borders of the desert the Senussi movement can make no further headway, Ahmed el'Sherif has daring recent years despatched, many mollahi westward to Bornu and the Haus States, that is, into the British protectorate of Northern Nigeria. In Bornu they had to meet no particular theological opposition, but in the Hausa States they had to take up a position of antagonisin to the Sultan of Sokoto, who is the recognised religious head of all Musulmans in the Western Sudan 'as far as Timbuktu, Nevertheless, the adherents of the Sultan of Sokoto," with good-humoured indifference, have allowed the missionaries of the Senussi to proclaim publicly their doctrines and to gain such converts as tlicy could. The teachings of these Dervishes is ide gious, not political, and has not interie-ed with by the British authorillazion Indeed, the "difficulty" here," as "always"with" Mohammedan fraternities, is to know how to draw the line and distinguish between a revival of religion and a political propaganda ; In many respects teachings of the Senussi mollahs is faltogether unabjectionable, and there appears no ground to regard their activity elther in the Inusa States or in Bornu with alarm. The Senuesi brotherhoods in Algerin are even looked apan with favour by the French authorities, and the chief of the Senussi "zawai" (convent) at Hilli has been decorated with the Legion of Honour.

More significant, perhaps, of the designs ör, fears of the new head of the Senussites than the despatch of emissaries in Nigeria are the constant efforts made in establish · friendly. · relations with Ali Dinar, the Sultan of Darfur, Darfur is the most western part of the Anglo Egyptian Sudan, and enjoys; complete Home Rule, the Sukan merely paying an annual tribute of you to the Khartum Government.
