great things Won Moltke and Won Room did
in this respect, with the approval OF their

how inefficient the Prussian army. was

YsVAILLIAM l., HOWEVER, DID NOT
sAdNYe hesitate to introduce great reforms
oveyO into the Prusaian military system.
But those reforms meant An increased mill
tary budget, which entailed some years Of
~serious conflict with what 1 may style the
PYussian house of commons. Tho history
of this conflict is very interesting, and il
instructive to all lovers of free and parlia-
montary institutions. To MS who love par
liamentary institutions it may help to make
it Ineligible how it is that for the present,
at all events, the great German people are
content to dispense with such supremacy of
parliament as exists mon us. Institu-
tons in any country are strong in proper
ton as they are supported by the strength
Of the nation and have proved themselves
efficient in practice. The popular repre-
gentatives of Germany at that time had not
been trained by long years Of RESPONSE
bility. They committed themselves to OPP
position to tho policy which In the end
created the German empire. The effect has
been, for the time at least, enormously to
increase the authority of the Prussian
throne, which in 1S48 and 1849 was very
wcnk indeed.
The nation, as a whole, felt that they had
gained what they wanted from the action
OF the king and not from those who had
opposed him. While, therefore, the in
%stinctive sympathies OF Englishmen are
with those who are supporting constitu-
tional methods, it is not difficult for US to
understand how Il man like Won Moltke
should have felt, as he evidently did, that
the cause Of Germany was for the time be-
ing the cause of Bismarck md tho king,
and should have thrown himself heart and
soul on to that side Of the question, though
in the political contest no was altogether in
the background.
Few Englishmsn trouble themselves with
any speculations rs to what would have
been the position of our country
now, rs regards some Of the other
European powers, II the Prussian army had
not been converted into thu great fghting
machine it soon became. In other words,
IL Moltke and Won Room had not urged the
great army reforms then effected. and II
