MR SEDDON COMMENDED.
London, June 20,
iJeveral Unionist newspapers applaud Mr Sedrion for crying shasic on the English statesmen whose utterances
prolong the war.
[Speaking at the luncheon to the Ohri«tchr.rch veterans on Monday, Mr Seddon strongly eondenii ed those statesmen iv the Old Country whose public utterances has encouraged the Boors to continue the war. Any one, he said, who complained, or condoned, or sympathised with the enemy, was an airier and abettor of murder. That was a strong term to use, but at the present time the Boer cause is hopeless, unless it was to keep the war dallying along until Groat Britain was engaged in another trouble. If they were determined, however, and said the war was to be ended, it would end quickly. But if the Boers are encouraged by sympathy in England and led to think they would get help, those who were guilty of encouraging them would bo responsible for the effect of their actions.]
