Pos.IbIe War I'M tbe Nue vnIIe,

1t is quite evident now that Great Brit
aims projected campaign in the Nile val
ley is intended mainly to perpetuate her
hold upon Egypt. Great Britain is under
agreement to renounce her guardianship of
Egypt as soon as Egypt has grown strong
enough to take care of herself. By com
hitting that country to a war with the
Mahdists the necessity of protectorate
will continue for many years. France has
begun to protest, but it is not clear that
her government can find valid excuse for
interference. France was shouldered out
of Egypt by the burly Briton, but only I'M
der the promise that the Briton himself
would get out as soon as Egyptian affairs
had been settled. For years bad feeling
has existed between the two powers, and
it will not be lessened by Great Britain's
present course. The people of England
exhibit little enthusiasm over the prospect
of another war in the Soudan. They
have bitter recollections of the last war, its
great cost in lives and money and the small
satisfaction derived from it.
