What of Greece?

Up till now the French forces have done quite excellently and the British forces are only arriv- ing.

The greatest generals in the world have always done that; indeed, that in one Yossonirhy they were the greatest generals. They were able always to sako pradential views. It may equally be, of course, that the de- mand has been made with's view to forcing the hand of Grecos. She has shown herself not unfavourable to the cause of the

If not, if whe decides to take an aotive part in the war, on which side will cke declare herself? There are questions which must not be left undetermined. They must not be left to chanos.

Obiness are quite s easily trained as Europeans in ekilled operations must, we be- lieve, be conceded. That they will work under conditions which the white mon find impossible is also beyond question. Whether the educated Chinese nan show that capacity for leadership which i880 necessary in industrial de- velopment is, however, still in doubt.

In one of the telegrams to hand 80 it will be seen that the Earl of Rosebery hae, in a letter to the 80 Times, once more advocated the admission to the Cabinet of one whom he would doubt'ess term a purely business man." Some years ago his Lordship went one 4.80 batter than this by advocat. 4.80 ing a "Cabinet of business men," or at least, if our memory servON 1.60 as well, that a large proportion 2.75 of the Cabinet should comprise

"business men."

Lord Rosabery 1.75 before and since his retire i

ment from active politics has made so many speeches fall of advice, more or less acceptable, that it is somewhat difficult to keep along with him so as to do him justice ona point of accuracy which, of course, is essential, 89 his Lordship

is a man by no means to be takenTM lightly. As a statesman he has been, in our opinion, s failure, but as one who better than any other deserves the title of the "Nation'a orator" he must be giron full credit. And in his many speeches he has, as we have MEE CHEUNG, pointed ont, frequently made
