PLAIN QUESTIONS
Asked the Government Cor
corning the Boer War.
Salisbury Defends Martial Law
Brodrick vs.. Campbell Bannerman.
Great Scarcity of Horses for Use in
South Africa.

London March 1.-THE premier,
Lord Salisbury, was called on to defend
the government in the House of Lords
by a motion of Earl Spencer. Liberal,
formerly lord lieutenant of Ireland, de-
manding detailed information regard
ing martial law, courtsmartial and eX-
ecutionS in Cape Colony.
Lord Coleridge, Liberal, who fol-
lowed, declared that martial law was
imposed over vast area of South
Africa where not a shot had been fired
and where there is no resistance to
government authority. Lord Salisbury
said martial law was mere fashion of
speech. What everyone admitted was
that it was necessary to defeat the de-
signs of the Kings enemies in South
Africa. This, the government was de-
termined to do, and he added naively,
there was plenty of armed resistance
in Cape Colony to fully justify the ap-
plication of martial law.
In the House of Commons, this after
noon, Sir Henry bell-Bannerman,
the Liberal leader, noted the appoint
ment of n select committee to investi-
gate the whole commercial history of
the South African war; saying that in
SO doing he was only fulfilling moral
duty and echoing a sentiments deeply
felt throughout the country.
The war secretary, Mr.. Brodrick, re-
piled that the government did not fear
an investigation. 1t was true that in
operations of the magnitude of those
in South Africa there must have been
mistakes and shortcomings and the
war office would demand, as it's right,
an investigation at the proper time.
But British operations in all parts of
the world would be paralyzed if an in
quiry was forced now. Had the war
Office been in the condition in which
Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman left it,,
the war could not have been carried on
for Two months, owing to the shortage
of guns. ammunition and all the sup.
plies requisite for campaign. ~
