BRITISH OFFICERS’ CRITICISMS. i Wolseley Blamed—The Coming Men. | A London correspondent recently interviewed an old officer having special knowledge of the war situation. Blame for Lord Wolseley. | “My name I cannot gis,” he said, ly. : “The mistake of the entire campaign | so far has been that instead of sending mounted men, the war office has sent | out infantry.” | “Why ?” I asked. “Because Lord Wolseley is a fad— | dist upon the subject of infantry. He has been in fault. When Canada of | tered much needed cavalry he replied, ‘We want infantry.’ “You have heard of certain jealous— ies the Natal local forees. ‘That is the point. The jealousies of red tape ism are at the bottom of all the troubles. “It consisted, first of all, in snub- bing of every colonial officer. I know them well, and colonials are the finest troops in the world, man for man, far better than the Boers. Colonials Saved Dundee. “Everyone knows that when the} English troops got out there the chiefs | of the local torces, who knew the country and the Boers method of fight- ing minutely, offered their services | spontaneously. They were all mounted men and would have been invaluable. “What was the result ? General Bul- ler, - instance, would not have them | at all, and went so far as to say that | they were more trouble then they were worth.” | “But,” said I, “some of them were | taken.” “Yes” sai id the officer, ‘‘at first the | English would not have them at all, | then in order to calm the -colonial | feeling of indignation some five hun- | dred were embodied. ‘That was a sop | to the colonials, but yet the Imperial | Colonial Light Horse saved the battle | of Dundee. The regulars were retir— | , when the Light Horse, or irregulars | they are termed, rallied with the cry, ‘Boys, don't) let us have another} Majuba ! and Colonel Chisholm, ost his hfe fighting with them, such men.’ who | have never cen Baden-Powell and Methuen. eq.

Then Baden-Powell, because he .be- lieves in irregulars and fights the Boers #% with their own methods, a system which takes them entirely by surprise. e is full of resource. “General Sir Charles Warren, be- cause he was in charge of the Bechuana- land expedition.
