ZAGHLUL PASHA
It is impossible tor any fair-minded person not to recognise and respect in Sand Zaghlul Pasha the lofty qualities of a patriot. It would be unprofitable now to inquire how far, in common with many politicians who have suffered less for their cause, be w'fis swayed by motives of personal pique and love of office. Although he himself experienced the shock of a madman’s attempt at assassination, there is no reason to suppose that lie connived at such methods himself, or to deny him the title of an honest fighter. Too often the clamour for liberty and independence in the Hast merely spells a demand for the name of external independence spurred on by the anticipation of the enjoyment ol the fruits of government by an oligarchy of the higher castes or of the lawyer class. — “ The Yorkshire Post.”
