It I necessary to say plainly” that liberal- 1sm, as have known is in the past, in England §s dead. When Mr. Gladstone was asked to make remarks on the defeat he had nothing better to say than that the liberal party can well afford to stand upon record, That s true. It a splendid record, but it comes to an end with 1886. Its last great service, its last act of true liberal fsm, was to enfranchise the county voter in 1884; In other words, to put the ballot in the hands of the agricultural laborer. That act democratised England. T for the first time the balance of power passed from the middle clas: , to whom in 1852 and in 1868 it had des nded from the aristocrae and was confided to the working classes. hey who had h tofore possessed the franchise in a limited degr nd minority of about one-third, became of the whole electorate. GLADSTONE'S TURNING OFF. The mission of liberalism was far from being at an end with that great deed of emancipation, but the country was tired. Mr. Gladstone was getting old, the Irish question was pressing, and in despair of returning to power otherwise he took up home rule. He put behind him the traditions of his liberal past; he had before that put behind him the traditions of his tory past. He rent the liberal party in twain by his surrender to Mr. Parnell. Nearly all its best men, John Bright, the duke of Argyle,.Lord Hartington Mr. Chamberlain, and many more clung to the liberallsm which Mr. Gladstone re- nounced, Mr. Gladstone carrled with him the items of the party, a numerical majority, plus a few eminent colleagues like Lord Spencer, Sir Willlam Harcourt and Lord Rosebery. But from that day liberalism as a historical policy or an efficient political force ceased to exist. The Americans whose sentiments and sympathies entwine them with the mere reminiscenc of liberalism may be asked to say what it has since done to entitle it to claim the old name, The radicals soon captured it, and the socialists soon captured the radicals, and the party h ever since been on the down gra le DANGERS OF RADICALISM Liberalism has 0 completely formed.

Do we want to upset the ng soclal fab Do we want to attack property? Do we want to leg- islate in the interest of classes? Do we want to adjust taxes so as to discourage thrift, and to make our pepole pay, mot as now, each in proportion to his means, but the rich and the moderately well off to pay for all the rest? Do we want inequality before the law? Do we want to confiscate land or corporate rights? If we do, we can sympathize with the soclalistic radicalism, still masquerading for same purposes in England under the name of liberalism—nay, more than that, for these are incidental and the other is vital ‘Do we want to put our constitution at the mercy of a chance majority in the house of representatives? Shall we abolish our senate abolish the-presidential veto, abolish the ref- erence to the states and the people, abolish the supreme court, abolish every safeguard agalnst midnight legislation on tundamental laws, and make the house of representatives the one supreme political authority in the country? If we are ready for that, v shake hands with the English radle what the Engilsh radicals want beyond all else is to convert the House of Commons into the one supreme political authority the land, with absolute power to revolutionize the laws and constitution of Great Britain without any check safeguard whatever and without any reference whatever to the people. AS REGARDS INTERCOURSE. More important still to us is the probable effect of this unionist with Great Britain, the liberals Amerlca in or ctory on our relations We are wont to think of as pre-eminently friends to and the party which we nickname “tory’ as hostile to America, T think both parties, with respect to purely international relations, about on a level. There is, so far as I know, no anti American party in England, none in the sens in which there is an anti-English party here Radical hostility 1s a hostility to American principles, to American precedents, to Ameri- can ideas of the sanctity of law, and espe- clally of constitutional law, to American respect for social order, and much else. It is the conservatives who ag with us in these grave matters, the conservatives who turs to the United States for precedents, the con servatives who admire the working of our constitution. We agree with the conserva tives, whether we know it or not, in things which are essential, those grave ques tions which lle at the foundation of soclety We disagree with the radicals, and they with us. They deride our constitution as a legacy from Incompetent legislators. It is to them the dead hand which stifies the free play of popular institutions and checks those popular impulses, those gusts of popular passion, every one of which, according to English radicalism, ought to be able to express itselt fnstantly on the statute book as a law or find a place in-the constitution itselt, We are odious to them as & political example. That fs a truth which no man can dispute who knows anything of the political literature and history of England for the last ten years, and especially the last five. LITTLE GLANGA AT HISTORY. | But look at this guestion of political sym: those pathy historically. It Is the old liberalism, I m told, which was friendly to America and the old conservatism which hostlle. I will take the most critical period and the most splendid instances. It must be ad- mitted that during the earlier part of the civil war publie opinion as a whole in Eng- land, whether liberal or ervative, was against the union and for disunion. Admit- ting that, T ask which of the two did us most the men whose volces was con barm, and who were were loudest against us? Beyond doubt It was Lord John Russell who let Alabama and cried exultingly that bubble had burst, It was who exclaimed, not less ex- Jefferson Davis had made a was the real leader of the con- yond doubt Mr. Disraeli, and the liberals, the republican loose the Mr. Gladstone ultingly, that natfon. Who eervatives? T it was Disraell who did us the greatest single service any Englishman of his time ever did by rejecting the proposal of Napoleon for re tion of the confederacy. He was then He was consulted, because it that such an act ought to be done, it with the support of both parties, and it Disraell's peremptory negatiye which prevented That is the record, and upon it parties in England itself most friendly in opposition, was felt all was which of proved the two do you say to merica? THREE With nearly seven to unionist majority Is 153, remain about 150.° It has no one cause will account for revolution this. Mr. Gladstone majority of forty in the general of August, 1892, Less than three vears have sufficed to convert this into a unionist major- ity of four times that number in the popular might appear even three leaders—thre electoral purposes MATTERS SE all the hear from ITLED. in and but of 670, the and will probably come clear that such a political had election returns out seats as a The change vote fs much greater from these figures contending leaders for of the liberal party stood n three different platforms. Lord Rosebery against the House of Lerds, Sir William Harcourt for local veto, and Mr. John Morley for home rule. There can be no doubt that the people of England have pronounced decisively on those three issues. They do not abolish the House of Lords, they will not have local veto, and they will not have home rule for Ireland. What is equally clear is that they will not have the soclalistic- radical to rule over the He himself admits it. The authentic voice of the socialistic-radical is to be heard through the London Chronicle That able, but mischievous journal admits that its cause has sustained a severe and almost unparalleled disaster, and admits that the main cause of it is the popular reaction against the pro gram of progressive action which th soclalistic. licals pressed upon the country. What the electorate desire, says this journal, “is pure negation, mere preservation of the status quo, absolute unqualified conserva- tism.” That is half the truth, and not more than half, even when the Chronicle adds that the English sick of the miserable Irish quarrel. TAUGHT These gentlemen mit that anybody but themselves. lain, with his se he and soclalistic. The wish to THEM NOTHING. of course, will never ad has any plan of reform hey Ignore Mr. Chamber constructive social reform beca his program are socfal ar not They ignore the announced and public agreement on soclal questions b tween Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Balfour an! Lord Salisbury. They lgnoe the very large soclal schemes put forth by Mr. Balfour in his address to his constituents of East Man- chester. All these undoubtedly hal an flu though probably less influence than the general weariness and disgust at the long record of leglslativ revolutionary schemes up the G in incapacity and abortive , which, together, make history of the liberal party since Mr. ladstone be prime minister in 1892 et even now the radicals, who have brought iin upon what Mr. Gladstone had left of ie party, cling to their radicalism. The Chronicle still insists that soclal sm has not been defeated, but that it the older, stzguant, hopeless form liberalism that the heaviest blows have fal len.” From the bottom of the ditch into which It has led the party radicalism gu gles out that It must be more radical than ever and more socialistic than ever; that the older liberalism has nothing offer and no place in the political future, while a new progressive party is to undertake the su- preme task of bullding up the British democracy of the future. On such men the of defeat anl all other lessons are thrown away. GEORGE W. SMALLEY. SPORTSMEN ame n radica is “‘upon of the to lesson CREST. English Election ¢ Racing Men LONDON, July 27.—Results show three unionist gains out of four elections. The election of Newmarket was one of the most interesting of the whole sion. The vic tory of Mr. Hugh McCalmont, the well known sportsman, and one of the owners of Val- kyrie 111, and the ousting of Sir George Newnes by such a strong majority, is a great victory for the turfites. Sir George was a prominent leader of the anti-gambling league wsequently Newmarket, which depends racing, was easily stirred up against him. It was a good chance of wiping out Sir George's majority. The sporting news papers vigorously entered into the campaign in favor of McCalmont, declaring that New market would be ruined if Sir George Newnes and his set had their The Lelcester racing authorities did their best to ist McCalmont by arranging to finish the racing there early yesterday in order to enable the racing men to return to Newmarket in time for McCalmont the general e league was fo ndidates who supported the anti-gambling agitation and a black list was drawn up with the result that these efforts have been the defeat of thirteen namely, Messrs.

The 1 is as follows LINCOLN, J 27.—Hon. A. 8. Churchill and Hon M. C. Russell, Lincoln, Neb.: Gens tlemen—As members of the board to ap= point’ fire and commissioners for the city of Omaha, under the provisions of the recently enacted house roll No. 139, I desire to call your attention to what I conceive to Dbe the situation and the probability of a dual nt of the police force in the city of Omaha, with its attending conflict of author= ity and unseemly strife and contention among those whose duty it is to conserve the peace, the desirability of having the contros settled by an early decision of the supreme court of the state The appointment at this time Board of Fire and Police Commissioners and a consequent attempt to control the police force by them, in view of the pending contest as to the legality of the lately enacted law, would result in inevitable disturbances, voke street brawls and be a menace to the preservation of the peace and good order of the city. In order to maintain the peace and dignity of the state, protect the property of tho citizens of Omaha and to facilitate the early settlement of the disputed quess tions of authority which affect the weltars of the municipality, I would respectfully tnvite you to unite with me in obtaining an early decision from the supreme court of the state touching the validity of the law known as H. R No. Under the provisi a copy police governm and versy of a new of the law now In force the governor has the appointment of four commissioners, who, with the mayor of the city as ex-officio chairman, constitute the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners. for the city of Omaha. House roll No. 139 was passed by both houses of the state legiss lature at the last session and was vetoed by the executive because of the doubtfuk constitutionality of several of the provisions of the bill and a prevailing opinion that there was nefther necessity demand, outside of interested political for a change in the ing law. The bill became a law: by virtue of having received a three-fifths vote in both branches of the legisiature after its disapproval by the executive. the passage of this bill distinguished counsellors at law of acknowledged ability have pronounced it to be invalid. There aps pears to be no doubt that in any event the courts will be called upon to decide the legals ity of the new law. 1t is currently reported t nor circles, exl a Sinc at at this time. city of Omaha are organizing and holding frequent meetings, with the avowed expectation of beccming & part of the police force under the provisions of the new law at an early date, while the present Board of Fire and Police Commise sioners declares its intention of exerc'sing the functions of their offices under the existing law until the validity of the provisions of the law m question are determined. The appointy ment of another Board of Fire and Policé Commissioners and the assumption by them of the control of the police force and fire des partment of the city would appear to me to be inadvisable, injudicious and hazardous of the peace and welfare of the city of Omahay until the court can settle definit:ly the 19.;.12 ity of house roll No. In view of the possibility of serious coms plications in the municipal affairs of the state’s metropolls, 1 it proper that this mooted question should at once be subs mitted to the supreme court by an action in the nature of quo warranto, be brought under the direction of the attorney general, some othe it is for him to bring the on account of his connection with the new law, or that an agreed case shall be submitted to such court under the provisions of section of the Code of Civil Pros cedure, reciting the points in dispute, and thereby obtain an early and final decision. By this course T apprehend that the dane gers of a threaténed conflict of authority ree sulting from a dual police force and the cone sequent rioting which can only bring opprobrium and discredit upon the city and state, would be avolded, and the question at issue be speedily and peaceably settled with ignity and decorum. With this end in view, and assuring you of my earncst desire to avoid delays, [ would respectfully request your hearty co-operationy Yours very truly, SILAS A.
