ITS EFFECT ON AUSTRALASIA. Unittd Press Association — By Eloctrio • Telegraph — Copyright. (Received Feb. 15, 9.43 a.m.) LONDON, Feb. i 4. The " Times," commenting on Mr Barton's remarks with reference to the Japanese treaty, says the alliance goes a long way to give the colonists an assurance against a naval ajttaok. Tho Australians ought to "be quickened by this result of diplomacy to participate in the naval strength of the Empire, and also to consider the question of legislating for the legitimate susceptibilities of Britain's vigorous and 1 progressive ally.
SIR JOSEPH WAjl^ k. VIEWS. [Per Press Association.]' AUCKLAND, Feb. 15. Speaking at the btunquet at which ihe was entertained- at Onehuaiga last night, Sir Joseph Ward said thaife Japan had just entered into an alliance with Great Britain, a thing which ihe had for years preached as practicable. If English-speaking .coun-. tries entered into an alliance they would be able to stand against the world and have an Imperial zollvereign, with perhaps Jappyn thrown' in, working one with another, and lifting themselves to a highi level . commercially, and other nations could not do them the slightest harm.
