[1] "East of Suez ... there lies upon the eyes and foreheads of all men a
law which is not found in the European Decalogue; and this law runs:
'Thou shalt honour and worship the man whom God shall set above thee
for thy king; if he cherish thee thou shalt love him; and if he plunder and
oppress thee thou shalt still love him, for thou art his slave and his
chattel.'" Imperial Rule in India (Page 43). Theodore Morison.
There must come a time when the people of every habitable part of the
world will have tried the system of government by majority of elected
representatives. Even in the case of a nation like China, which has at
present no desire among its proportionally small class of educated minds for
such a form of rule, the popular longing for enfranchisement will arise, and
sooner or later a representative form of government will be established. The
obviously possible oppression and tyranny of democratic rule are dangers
which no people as a whole will learn except by their own experience. The
stirring spirit of life that brings man self-reliance will make him claim his
share in the ordering of his own country sooner or later but in any case
sooner than he has been able to learn that a measure is liberal or tyrannous,
not according to the type of government that imposes it but according to the
degree of liberty it secures to, or takes away from, the individuals it affects.
How many Englishmen who have ever given a thought to India have
imagined themselves for a moment as natives of that land? Try to put
yourself in the place of any native-born Indian and consider fairly what
your thought would be about politics or government. If you were a ryot, an
uneducated villager, you would know nothing of such matters. For you, all
life and its affairs would be in the hands of the gods and the money-lender,
and endeavours to assuage their wrath or cruelty, to induce their patronage
or favour, would exhaust whatever surplus energy remained from daily
rounds of toil.
But put yourself for a moment in the place of the young Mohammedan
who has just left his university and is trying to obtain a berth in the post-
office, or of a Hindoo medical assistant in the hospital of a country town, or
of a large native landowner who has just left college and succeeded to an
estate in Bengal, or of a native pleader in the courts, or of a native assistant
magistrate—would you then be quite indifferent to questions of government
and politics? You would feel conscious that you were being ruled by
strangers whose superiority, in whatever respects you deemed them
superior, was the most galling thing about them—far more so than their
habitual disclination to have more touch with you than was necessary to the
efficient discharge of their official duties. Among the very few you ever
met, after leaving college, one Englishman might seem to you lovable; but
would that reconcile you to the fact that his race was ruling yours, dividing
its territories in the teeth of the protest of their powerless inhabitants, and,
as you gathered from your reading, denying you rights of self-government
which his own people years ago had risen in arms to obtain?
