[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] SIR, —Probable political chaos awaits

the country because of the decision for an election with no provision for a Referendum. Could you organize a powerful body of men and women to press your suggestion forward at the coming polls ? The result of the appeal to the nation will—as I believe—be indecisive, with no clear majority for any one Party. On this issue you have had clear vision.—I am, Sir, &c.,
