empire as a whole, it is so large and em­
braces so much of the best part of the
earth that its fate affects largely the
fortunes of the human race. Its wise
government is in a special sense a great
human interest and its success concerns
the progress of civilization. Since 1871
other powers have essayed the role of
colonizers, so that England now has
rivals where formerly she was almost
without a competitor. France, Germany,
Russia and the United States are now to
