English utilization.

Alfred Hamswortb, known likewise
as Lord NOrthcote, the cable says, is
publishing series of articles, in
London paper, vilifying the United
States. The libel mainly consists of
perversion of facts and a juggle of
figures; an exhibition of bile that "is
by no means surprising when past
happenings and present conditions
must obtrude at times, to cloud the
brain when digestion is not exactly
what it should be. The writer of the
series is Bert Kennedy, a man OF
ability, who made a tour of this
country some years ago, when he was
broke and doubtless depressed and has
thus become the hapless victim of a
job-lot order for fact and fancy.
He represents this country as "a
sham and fraud" and "a joke of
Republic" but he does not state the
precise date when this country began
exciting the risibilities of our ancestry.
Surely it was not at Bunker Hill, in
revolutionary times, nor at New Or.
leans, a couple score OF years later,
that passing events partook of the
nature OF joke. or Of comedy.
He declares that Roosevelt is no
more than a "hy on the wheel"
which is certainly saying much for the
wheel when it becomes the potent
arbiter OF the fate of nations. He
affirms that our milliopaires are "The
real enemies to society, and worse
clique of Grand Dukes than ever
crushed Russia" and that they have
produced conditions whereby a man
may commit deliberate murder, if he
possesses much money. If this be
true, it is no worse than the privileges
that attach to heredity in the old
country. The maxim, "The King can
do no wrong" extends to some degree
to all classes of the so-called nobility,
and rank serves as foil for warding off
the responsibility for many transgres.
sions.
The London paper predicts "such q
revolution soon as has never occurred
in the worlds history, in the United
States" It does not give the date of
this grand collapse, but assures US that,
like everything else seen on THE side
the water, will be q big one. Doubt.

Old England will have no hand in it,
