SALISBURY'S IMPERIALISM.
"A TRAMENDOrs DESTINY BEFORE U.S." PER PRESS A-SOCTATTON. Received 8, 10.4."i p.m. Loadon, .Vlay 8. Lord Salisbury, addressing the Primrose League, siid in repaid f o the peace negotiations the Gover'iuiesr, had not receded from its form->r position. It would rot allow any posi ion to arise whereby the Boers could renew tha issup. The manner in which the colonies had warmed in their devotion to Motherland was phenomenal. The feeling cime in s vo .st a volume that it added enormously to the Em [ire's strength and ii flueucn. He added : "As regards federation, we cannot siftly interfere legislatively wi'h tho natural development; of our relations with the colonies. Considering t'r.e difficulties regarding thu bur-1 dens of finance, duties of defenc-, and rights of decision which the Mo'li-r----land could retain, I look with apprehension on any attempt to f-rce thej various parts of the Empire into any mutual arrangement or subordination,! wherefore they are not rf-sdy. It would be* calculated to produce a v- \ action in favour of the old s'ate of 1 things. If we are pa'ieot atul careful a tremendous des*ioy lies btfore up."
