FACTS VS BOMBAST
The cockney editor on the Cou ¬
rierJournal is resuscitated from
spell of blues and breaks out in en-
thusiastic
¬
bombast over Gen <
Roberts relief of Kimberley Witha long string of ifs he explainswhy English valor has not herfore resulted in success and t-
hisJnI
bragging gets the better of himin his effort to rebuke the criticismof English prestige military re ¬
sources and prowess He adlIit required this decisive movementof Lord Roberts to show the Conti¬
nent that England could depend on
her army and then he gives thishurrah to the galleries
vThe best evidence that England
is as virile and strong a nation asshe has ever been is in the demon-
strations
¬
c of patriotism of whichevery newspaper tells the enthus-iasm
¬
with which all classes rushinto the army The proudest peerand the humblest cockney show thesame eagerness to share in a cpaign against a desperate and tfoe in a tropical climate Suchunanimity of devotion to their com-
mon country proves that GreatBritain is still in the full flushthe spirit with which she brokepower of Napoleon still is the arbi-
ter¬
of Europe as Cromwell made
herThiscockney has heretofore
echoed the defi that England neithercared nor feared what the Continentor the world beside thought of the
it lmrliSouth Africa But it required a
UP
<
demonstration such as that of Lo rdandj
Roberts to prove to them that E-
land could still fight that the mo-
notonyj
of defeat at the hands of aninsignificant force was not due tdecadence of English valor or a 1lackof military strength that England j
was not really scared lest sonieIo other power should step into the
arena and give the coup de grace toEnglish aggression Of course ittdoes not matter that the cockney ofeditor is at variance with Lc
Rosebery and others who in theBritish Parliament openly declaredthat the very existence of the em1l
p reif in danger and can onlysaved by a larger and more thpughly armed and disciplined armyand navy But perhaps Rosebrefers to the Boers and not theContinent as the foe threateningthe existence of the empire

agreesof
