In sincerity They aro based on the poor
philosophy lhat thliuss can not bo worse
fco Ihey must be better The Time In a
long dreary article Is able to offer Us
readers no better congratulation thart this
It has been a veur or menjee and dan

If It were not for the prevailing fear of the
Inadequacy of the Drltlbh armament a
considerable portion of the Kngllsh people
would nt heart welcome war which tiPiir
ly all ngie Is threatened by present con-
dition Tin leason for this sanguinary
sentiment Is the fact that the HnKllsh
people are poor poorer than ever be-
fore In these lnttcr days In spite
of this still growing feeling of tlueit

nny description of a memolng Internation-

The wave of vogue dread wMch is

admitted that Mr Oladslune of lite years
