As, however, the war advanced, it became more difficult and more eriti-al and ho was not surprised that the Government had nut proposed n formidable programme of legislation hh affairs in South Africa, political and military, would nn donbtedly ettgage iho present Parliament to a groat extent. The war wus uppermost in all minds when the Members separated in Oct .her. and it was believed there were tiuops enough iu Snnth Africa to rapidly cleai thn Queen's dominions, but their expectations hnd been sobered, Week after week had seen checks, dis.mpoint- uients and deplorable loss of life.
