which greeted hint said:
"It is not time for tine langoage.
In the face of the world, which is
judging us. we must have firmness
and a calm. serene conscience.
"There are t wo questions. The
first is whether the Government and

fully interpreted ,the thoughts and
will of the ['alien people "

'I never doubted it.•' continued
the Premier, "for I know the soul
of niy people. but confirmation was .
required. The first question Is an-
awered;

"The second question is to esti-
niate the gravity of the situation.

"1 am 'with you." continued the
Premier. "a brother among brothers,
' and also a chief who asks to obey
and follow the will of the people.
It may be that we shall and our-
