France is doing something to stir up trouble in that direction, In geographic conformation and fighting power Abyssinia much resembles the Transvaal, at the other end of the Af- rican continent. It occupies about 100,000 square [miles of rugged moun- tain plateau ; it has a population of three or four, millions, who, as a rule, would rather fight than eat, and ean put in the field at least 100,000 soldiers armed with modern weapons. The sentiment of Abysinnia as to Britain's | far-reaching operations in Africa is | said to be the same us that of the Bo- | ers, ——————— pf A AAI Our Government is disposed to take | a lenient view of the stoppage by Brit- | ish warships of vessels loaded with!
