Russia, Austria or France instead Of irregular
levies OF farmers, who have been coTmandeered
straight from the plough, and whose life has
been spent until now, not in drills, military
manpuvres and the study of tactics, strategy
and of all the science of modern warfare but
in agricultural pursuits.
Eng!and's navy has kept abreast Of the times,
but her army is misera v heh.ndhand this
too. in spite Of the fact /. 1t the annual British
military budget IS almost as large that Of
the German Empire. About two years ago the
"Miltarisches Wochenbatt," which is the ofii-
cial organ Of the Berlin War Department, wrote
follows.
Despite all its bravery. the British army is
showing once more on the Indian frontier that
il is as unfit for any serious war as ever
II Russia were to make use OF her Oppor-
tunities England, powerless as she is from a
military point Of view, would be forced 10 leave
the gates OF India Ia Russia's hands, and to
thank her stars if she did not lose India alto
gether
This sweeping condemnation Of the British
army was called forth by the lamentabe fasco
of the British military operations against the
insurgent trbesmen on the northwestern frontier
of India. This due to no lack Of courage
on the part of officers men, and If the rank
and file gave any indication Of INSTRUMENTATION
il was only by refusing to obey when com
manded to retreat. The fault was entirely and
admittedly with the gross Incompetence of the
supc rior officers who manifested a degree Of
military inefficiency and ignorance Of the
science Of modern warfare that are almost in
conceivable.
Each Of the reverses sustained during the
present war with the Transvaal has been due
Ia the neglect Of the most elementary rules Of
the art Of war. The defeats OF Generals Butler,
Gatacre and Lord Methucn have in every case
resulted from a neglect TO develop the enemy 5
position by means Of skirmishers before attack
ing in force. Indispensable as scouting is in
ordinary warfare. it is hundredfold more
necessary in a country such a. that which now
constitutes the scene Of hostt.es, a country
Of ravincs and hills dotted with powders, and
cut in every direction by rivers with precipitous
banks.
In thus allowing themselves to be ambushed-
for # is difficult to describe as anything else
the reverses which they have sustained
English commanders show clearly that, aside
from their failure TO observe the military rule

Among the serious reflections to which the

made if the enemy which they were called upon
to face had been the highly trained and up to
