DEATHili;UlF EARL KITCHENER

Few events, if any, since the outbreak of the war,

have caused such a painful shock as the news of the death of Earl Kitchener, a report of which appears elsewhere in this paper. Kitchener has been a house- hold word throughout the length and b eadth of the British Empire for many years., notably since the Khartuni Expedition in |898 which he commanded with such consummate skill and for which he was publicly thanked by purlianit-nt and raised to the Peer- age. llis work in connection with the South African war and recently as Secretary for \\'zir is too recent and too well kiio\vn to require any detailed coinnieiit. Ile has been the leading figure in the \\'ar Office and the tower of strength itpon \vhich, apparently, the \\"ar Oiiice leaned. l'lis death is nothing short of a national calamit_v and will be regardeti as a personal loss throughout the limpire.

Yet, I\'itchener's place will be filled. The work of

the \\`ar Office and of the Uritisll .‘\rrny will go on to' a finish. Britain has never yct lost a war lord whose place has not been filled. liis death, lamentable and regrettable as it is, is neither :is lamentable nor as rggrettable as the fact that such a thing could happen. Our despatclies intimate that German spies had secret- ly announced his departure from England and that as it result a (ierman submarine had been sent in pursuit. This would indicate either that there isa leakage of the secrets of the \\'ar (Jiiice or than there is at spy in the ciiiploy of the \\'ar Uitice. It is too soon to form a conclusion. It is possible that thc ship may have struck at mine, in wliich case the deplorable event would bc an unavoidable accident. lint even if it should prove to have been an accident there is still :tn unju~'iiii:ible feature in coimection with it. \\`hy should :t ship carryiiig'siicli ati important mission bel aloiie? ilznl she been convoyed, even in case of acci-‘ dent. some, if not all of those onboard might have been' saved. '

\'icwed in any light and from :my angle the death

of iiarl l\'itchener and the circtiiiistaiices in connection with it :irc deplorable in the extreme. \\'helhcr there has been negligence 1." oversight or too iinicli “taking for granted" on thc part of the \\'ar Office our des-, pzitchcs do not indicate very clearly, but it is l\'n0wn that iiiorc than once it has taken at caluniity to arouse ;;o\~ernineiits :md cxeciitive offices to the seriousness of serious .~itii:ttioiis. l\'nowing iircat llritaiii and llritish blood we are contidem that wliatcvcr lesson is to be lt~.n'iied from the death of Kitchener will be it-arncil hy the ilritish iiovernmcnt and the British people an-i that greatly as ht- shall be missed the work of the \\`:ir iliiice and of the army which he practical- ly created will go on to final and glorious victory.

rue wait News

The war news of the past ielw days has brought

its a realization of what war actually means and of what we ntiiiselvcs mean when ive give of our blood to carry thc war In :i cmichi.sioii. \\'c have not yet begun to -realize this. \\‘e have not yet iiilly reali7.ctl that thc iliotiszniils of young men \\'lioiii we have called togethci' tmdei' the banner of llritaiii have been called

joyi . . their way to war, to stand shoulder to shoulder with other men who are battling for the life of the Empire, to Gil the places of those who have fallen, to fall them- selves if need be and, whatever clseliefalls, to keep the baniner of Britain flying. It was for this that 2,200 of Prince Edward lsland’s sons volunteered, for this that over 3o0,000_ of Canada's sons have left their homes and theirfamilies, have given up most of what life means to men. We must not be surprised or de- pressed, or down hearted when news of losses comes. The \var cannot be \von without losses, without terrible losses, losses that will try the souls of mothers and fathers, of wives and daughters of sisters and bro- thers. But those who have gone or are going to the fropt ami those who gave them up for this service have counted the cost. The thing is we are wiimi g. .\s to the co\st, those who have gone or arc going to the front and those who voluntarily gave them up to the service had counted upon it. Now we are in the midst of it. Many of otir own Islanders are now engaged in one of the fiercest battles since the beginning of the war. That we shall hear in a few days of casualties is a foregone conclusion. That we shall hear also that our boys have acquitted themselvesworthily, that they have added to the laiirels won a year ago near the scene of the present battle, we have no doubt. lt has been the glory of Britain and it has been our boast that “our sons have nobly known to die but could not learn to iiinch or fly.” Let it be our glory and our boast now that Canada’s sons, our own beloved flesh and blood, have stood the supreme test of manhood, have done their duty even unto death. .»\nd while we pray for their safe return home after an honourable peace, let~ its pray also-and hrst-that they be given the grace io die, if need be, like men.

The battles in which we are engaged now, both at

llooge and at Verdun, are battles against inaitlmen. Those who read in yesterday’s Guardian the report of the battle raging at Fort \-`au.\:, in the \`erdnn sector. where (jerinan line after line was driven up against certain death, whole lines anniliilatcd and as they toppled over their places tzgken by others to inget the same fate, could come to tio other conclusion than that in their madness and blood lust the Germans are ready to sacrifice their men in hundreds of thousands for thci empty privilege of boasting that they have ivoii a few yards of French trenches. liven if they succeed in capturing the position it will not bring them a yard nearer their objective nor be of any military advantage to them except as a boast for their people.

.'\s to the battle of lloogc in which the Canadiams

are engaged we l<no\\' little as yet. That the losses are heavy is indicated by our despatches yesterday, and this morning. The outcome of the battle, which is slill“ in progress, we may not know for some dziys.

MILLIONS STlLL

HUNGRV IN BELGIUM.

MON'[`Ill')Ai., Juno 5.- According

to ini'ornmiii»n given out here today from the lioailqiiartcri-i ol' the Bel- gian Ilelicf Committee, 50 St. Peter Street, approximately nine million persons are now being fed in Belgiitln through thc gifts of those who ap- preciate their position and their ex- treme nced. From two or three mil-- lion during the early days of the war the number has steadily crept up un~ til today nearly every man, woman and tzliild in Belgium is dependent to a certain cxlent on the outside world.

All through the winter these people

have~heen clothed and fed through the generosity oi’ England. the liunted States, Australia and Canada and in proposition to licr population Canada

has not been in the rear with her

__ _

donations. Some time ago the Bolginn Relief tiommitteo or Montreal- which in reality is the Belgian Relief Com- mittee oi' Canada- Sent forth the ery for a bag of flour from each Cana- dian. How Canada responded to this is now well known.

With the generosity cl\aracteriul.lL: of Canadians thousands ot' dollars; were sent to the various branches 0f|: the Relief Committee and ultimately turned into the Montreal office. '

Now the winter is over in"Belgium

but the dark days- arc not yet gone. Many believe the end of’ the war is in sight but even with such optimism as this is cver staring them in the face the terror of starvation. Belgium must have more food and it is only across

the water that they can look for re- lllcf. Hence the new call of the com- mittee for more ussistaiice.
