Before we leave Mr. Chamberlain's Glasgow speech, and all its
The Spectator
well-meant rhetoric and enthusiastic sophistries, we must comment on the very alarming passage dealing with Colonial manufactures, which evidently shows that Mr. Chamberlain...
NEWS OF THE WEEK
The Spectator
O
N Tuesday evening Mr. Chamberlain made his long- expected speech at Glasgow to an audience of some five thousand persons. The speech was oratorically a very fine effort, and...
On Wednesday Mr. Chamberlain continued his campaign by making a
The Spectator
speech at Greenock. The most telling pas- sage was that in which he appealed to the workman to hit back at the foreigner. " I do not know—there may be something wrong in my...
We have dealt with Mr. Chamberlain's main arguments elsewhere, and
The Spectator
noted the astonishing delusion that our trade is stagnant, which delusion is arrived at by the process of considering exports as the sole index of prosperity and by regarding...
Mr. Chamberlain calculates that under the new taxes, considered apart
The Spectator
from the reductions, it would cost the agricultural labourer 16i farthings more a week to live than it'does at present, and the artisan 19t farthings more. This, Mr: Chamberlain...

Mr. Balfour in his reply, dated October 3rd, expresses a

shrill and angry surprise at the Duke's communication. In view of much confidential correspondence and intimate conversation before September 16th, when the Duke decided to...
The Sultan recently received M. Constans, M. Lockroy, and their
The Spectator
wives, and spoke to them of the Macedonian ins urreo- tion. He said it would be repressed before long, and com- plained much of the bitterness of comment upon his acts....
These are very brave words ; but if Mr. Chamberlain
The Spectator
feels so terribly combative towards Powers like Germany who exclude our goods, may we ask him wby he was re- sponsible with the rest of the Cabinet for voluntarily per- forming...
The list of the reconstructed Cabinet was published on Tuesday.
The Spectator
It was delayed, Mr. Balfour says, by the negotiations with Lord Milner, which failed, and it bears evident marks of a kind of despair. Mr. Austen Chamber- lain, as was expected,...
