Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review, and Magazine, 1910, Vol. 19 We may compare its venom to a microbe of disease which may be powerless when introduced into a healthy organism, but is fatal if it finds lodgment, and the opportunity to spread, in a body already in bad condition. NO doctor can extricate the microbe, but he can counteract its effect by restoring the body to soundness. AS with the body corporal so with the body politic. Ours has been brought to a rotten condition by the pushing of Cobdenism to extremes. It is for the statesmen, who we hope may soon replace the semi - socialistic group of politicians which now forms the Cabinet, to make it their first: care to restore the body politic to a normal state of health by enabling our industries to compete on fair terms with the foreigner. Only thus can employment be given to the people only thus can they be offered an alternative to revolution; only thus can Cobdenism be prevented from ending as a stepping Stone to Socialism - and to destruction.

The submarine cable, and, in each great oversea dominion, an enterprising and well-informed press, have brought within the reach of the intelligent citizen of Melbourne or Montreal the same materials for forming fairly sound opinions concerning the actions Of the Home Government outside the sphere of domestic affairs as are at the disposal of the dweller in London.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, 1914, Vol. 26 Of course, the introduction of such a system of artificial political selection would be highly resented, and fiercely opposed, by many popular politicians now in possession of very desirable positions. Some might find it very inconvenient to have their measure of knowledge tested. But still the line of reform recom mended seems to be the one offering the least resistance, as affecting the susceptibilities of the few instead of those of the many. The abrupt withdrawal, were such a step possible, from thousands, or perhaps millions, of privileges which, by prescription, had become regarded as rights, would arouse a popular tornado which might wreck the Ship of State. But the deprivation of a handful of active politicians of opportunities previously, for lack of knowledge, or, perhaps, morals, greatly misused to the country's detriment should commend itself to the public judgment. For no caste or class system would come into being. Whether Sudra or Brahman, plebeian or patrician, the citizen who had passed the required tests would be eligible for the highest position in the land. A political career would be open to all talents; an aristocracy of intellect would supersede the old aristocracy of birth. The portals of the legislature would be absolutely barred against none, no matter what his condition. Only each applicant, before admission, would be required to produce his certificate of political merit. And facilities would be offered by the State to all its citizens above a fixed age, who were possessed of the requisite natural endowments of intelligence and industry, to earn the required diploma.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, 1910, Vol. 20 The conclusion of a new agreement between Russia and Japan is by far the most important event in foreign affairs that has occurred during the month just closing. If we are to accept the View put forward officially on behalf of both the contracting Powers, the new treaty forms a supplement to the Russo Japanese Agreement of 1907, and is to be regarded as a further surety for the maintenance of the status quo and of peace in the Far East. And so far as one can judge from the summarised text of the arrangement telegraphed by the Times correspondent at St. Petersburg it would appear that both these statements are correct. I take leave to append the summary, dated July 7th, three days after the signatures were attached. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review, 1906, Vol. 12 The Ministerial statement on the new Constitutions promised by the Liberal Government to the Transvaal and Orange River Colony may be expected at any moment. Indeed, I have reason to believe that the Prime Minister intends, if possible, to make his pronouncement before the month of July closes. That it will be framed on the Report of the Ridgeway Commission is by no means certain, but as the Commission was sent out to Obtain information for the Government it may be assumed that the Cabinet will very carefully consider what the Commissioners have to say. In that lies the hope of the British party in South Africa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, Vol. 17: February, 1909 Let me now pass to the more permanent causes of unemploy ment. Every year sees new improvements in machinery. Work that occupied the labour of a hundred hands not long ago, and these hands mostly men, is now performed by a third of that number, and in many cases the reduction is lower still. To mention only a few of the great labour-saving machines used in every class of factory work would take more Space than I have at my disposal, while in agriculture the labour-saving machines introduced during the last ten years have tended further to lessen employment in that direction. To those misguided people who imagine that the farmers are looking out for labourers, and that the millennium is going to come by training men to go on the land in this country, I would point out that the Board of Trade Gazette in a recent number, referring to agricultural labour, says, there was but little or no interruption of agricultural employment. The demand for extra labour was fairly good, but it was generally fully met by the supply. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, Vol. 27: February, 1914 Agriculture is our greatest industry. It is the most important Of our industries. It is a national industry, and if the agricultural question is to be properly approached, it must be from the National and not from the Party standpoint. To go into the arena as a party politician, attacking one class and stirring up hatred in the villages of England - that may be worthy of an agitator who stands at the reformer's tree in Hyde Park, but it is not worthy of the Chancellor Of the British Exchequer.
