to believe. There is, therefore, 1 great tendency to assume that everything which the Germans do most be equally good, though we know, as a fact, that they have entirely failed to develop a colonial empire. We see the application of such good charse teristics as industry and cone centration on their army, and we are ready to believe those who tell us that, in all the things which matter, the Gazzaxa organise much better than we do.
