Candidate's Speeches. By " Ono who has never been a Candi-

date." (Swan Sonnenschein and Co.)—The writer of these speeches tells us that they have never been delivered, but that as he has spoken on the various subjects with which they deal, their sub- stance has been employed. It is the style which we are inclined to criticise. It wants point and, we should say, effectiveness. If the writer could have reproduced what he actually did say, he would probably have done better.
