into practics. The opponents are not concerned with the views of our Allies or our Colonies. Theirs is a curious pose. It is best! summed up in the words of one who certainly cannot be accused of what used to be ridiculously termed "Jingoism." The Rer. A. T. Gattery, the well-known Primitive Methodist minister of Liverpool, Isat September, in his criticism of the pro-German ne tivition of Dr. Aked in the United Stater, said: "The desire to be. in opposition 'seems to have be come an obsession in some publio men, and to enter a controversy prejudiced against one's country seems to be a manis. It is perhaps a malady more than s crime, but it naassates only.'

The opponents of a change in the commercial policy of Britain and the Empire are of two classEE. There are those who follow Sir John Simon and Free-Trade-at- any-price remnant, the "Man- chester Martyre," and those who thick it absolutely unrighteous to be untrae to Cobden. The other rection is actually fiendly to Germany under the guise of a superior oult of ethics. These latter have varions titles, but were conveniently summed up in the words of Mr. Sexton at the Trade Union Congress as "eids- sbowe."
