The French Prime Minister.
Their loyal patience was more or less
rewarded By q speech on the Tuesday
BY III, French Prime Minister. VI. vi
H,nis speech appeals with force TO a
sec, public. but not 10 the English
people generally. They want 70 hear
from their own Minister; not from an
lIy whose point Of view can never be
cutie the same. u. Viviani truly says
ihs, the spirit Of justice and generosity
,hsracterires Great Britain, Russia,
laly and France, "but in different
ysys." It may be left at that. 1t is
nly needful 10 add that this French
Prime Minister and the British Foreign
Minister meant 10 have spoken on the
sns day. i was by misunderstand-
rg ths, VI. viyisni spoke first. As an
'rsior be perhaps stands alone. As a
Prime Minister no man in Europe has
Won greater confidence.
Bu, he did not on Tuesday deal quite
isnkly, or quite fully, with the
points the English public care most
about Their dread has been lest their
Own Government in these complicated
ahd perhaps dilatory negotiations with
Bulgaria had been badly informed. On
nat matter they get little help from
