Abstract

Mr. Chamberlain in South Africa

February 5, 1903 issue

add to cart   close window

Audacity is sometimes, like wisdom, justified of her children; and Great Britain's Prime Minister Joseph Chamberlain's greatly daring plan of going to South Africa in person to confront the problems which the Colonial Office must solve there, has thus far been highly successful. If he is thought of merely as a consummate politician, the cleverness of this move of his cannot but be admired. But his course has thus far been so wisely chosen, his temper so conciliatory, and his plans so sagacious, that his tour in South Africa may be said to have made all the amends now in his power for the rash diplomacy which brought on the untold miseries of a needless war.
