Mustapha kamela, head of the EGYPTIAN
National patriotic party, Is not without
significance. One OF his objects in coming
here Is to dispel any idea that the kheaive
IL not entirely loyal TO the sultan As
regards the feeling existing among the
Egyptians themselves. he said:
Egyptians without exception are dis
coutentea with British occupation They
know that England today Is striving 10
blind Europe and the entire world, that
she may place her hand over the enure
valley of the Nile. The former commences
IN the word OF the English no longer ex-
lists The English occupation has taught
them that in politics there IS neither NOR
slity nor honor"
But why should the Egyptians seek to
get rid of the British ruler? was asked
They are prosperous and well governed
under IT."
I'VE Egyptians wish to be rid of the
British rule" said Mnstapha Kamela,
first, because II is our duty as nation
fun OF vitality, knowing Its rights toward
ITSELF and even toward the holy father
land. next. because British occupation
ruins Egypt morally and materially"
'swill you tell ma what Is Egypts atu-
tude toward Turkey
The policy counsslIed by The Egyptian
patriarchs TO the whole OF Egypt Is TO
bind herself to Turkey, and TO strengthen
those bonds more than ever. History tells
US to follow no other policy. III the Eng
lish are IN Egypt today. 10 Is owing 10
the known antagoniym which existed be-
fore the reorg aniBati0n between the sultan
and the khedive. pewfik Pasha- The Eng
lish are using all their efforts TO divide the
sultan and the khedive. but we are sure
the wisdom and patriotism of the khedive
fortify him in the policy OF Impeachment
with Turkey, wherein alone rest his well
fare and that OF Egypt"
Can you explain tho sudden cause OF
the English expedition TO Dongola?'
Mustapha Kamela certainly gave = new
idea about England's move.
For a long time past he continued.
''the English have looked yearnlngly to-
ward the Soudan. They wish TO grasp
that inexhaustible source of riches. They
are aware that the master OF the Soudan
is the master of Egypt, and that II the
European poweTs manages 70 On make ss, Eng-
which owes Europe no debt, as Egypt
does, would become an English province
In that direction they have worked for
long years When they saw in 1881 that
France and Russia were preparing for an
entente, and could give the uegus or Abys-
sinia officers and arms. in order 70 push
ed Italy toward Abyssinia TO prevent the
advance OF the negus Into the Soudan
Their game succeeded remarkably well
and Italy being thrown upon Abyssinia,
did but serve the plans of England with
her blood and her money. Ever skillful
the English under a pretext OF saving the
Italians, profited by their disasters 10 un-
dertake the Dongola expedition, with the
assent of the triple alliance Today, TO
complete the comedy. England asks italy
TO give her back Kassala.
Thus Il is that the English have used
all Europe, without Europe forcing them
