The most ardent advocate of peace, if to-morrow he were called to the helm of state, and were to find himself made answerable for the security of these Islands, and faced with their vast population, and their historic past, with the pledges given by their states- men to subject races, and the potentialities of their future, could not in the present condition of Europe and of the world, venture to disarm. Further, if he were conscientious, prudent and frank, he would explain to his countrymen th...e dangers they are bound to provide against, and the risks they periodically run, owing to their inveterate love of minding other people's business, coupled with their own complacent faith in luck and in their capacity to pull through any emergency ; and having done this he would set about perfecting our National Defences. This has always been the hard fate of the pacifist statesman, who was not a mere theorist, when brought up short by the actualities of the world. I am well aware that another view may be taken of the duty of a protagonist in the cause of Peace.
