THE WEST RIDING ELECTION.
(From the Liverpool Mercury of this day.)
The explanations of Mr. Garbutt, at the Leeds meet-
ing, on the occasion of Mr. Fitzwilliam making his pub-
lic debut as candidate for the West Riding, serve to con-
firm the grounds on which we have already ventured to
censure the actings of the Liberal Executive Committee
in this business. Their grand error consisted in making
the admission, which Mr. Carbutt did not hesitate, in
their name, to repeat and avow, of " the right of the
agricultural party to have the nomination of one
representative, and the manufacturing interest that of
another." Now, the principle of such concession is
essentially false,• on the hypothesis either of these
interests being identical or of their being op-
posed. If they are identical, the concession is
needless ; and, if opposed, it is prejudicial to the
majority, whose suffrage rights are thus bargained
away. But, when for " agricultural party," we
read the aristocratic or landed section of the Libe-
rals; and for " manufacturing interest," the great body
of middle-class voters, the transaction stands out in still
clearer relief. What the Executive Committee should
have done, when the Whig aristocracy approached them
for the purpose of making terms, was, to let it be dis-
tinctly understood they would enter into no paction
except that the candidate for their suffrages should be
a man of tried political virtue, character, ard ability.
In place of this, however, on a vague and loose under-
standing with respect to the candidate's orthodoxy on
the four points, they consented to delegate the right of
initiation to the House of Fitzwilliam. We cannot
think that the Executive Committee do well to be angry,
now that they have been baulked in their expectations.
It is all very fine for Mr. Carbutt to talk of Mr. Fitz-
william having bidden "defiance" to the Normanton
meeting. Speaking for the Executive Committee, he
ought to have been prepared to say that the landed sec-
tion of the Liberals had broken faith by starting such a
candidate. But this he is unable to do, simply because
the Executive Committee were not careful to have the
terms of the "compromise" clearly defined and accu-
rately guarded. In the most favourable view, the "com-
promise" would have been an error. But things standing
as they do, it is an enormous bungle. With the Ex-
ecutive Committee alone will rest the blame of the
West Riding being inefficiently and injuriously repre-
sented.
Since the above was written, we have learned that
Mr. Fitzwilliam has retired, and that the delegates at the
Normanton meeting, on Wednesday, being divided be-
tween Mr. Roebuck and Sir Culling Smith, the English
Agnew, a bitter and narrow-minded bigot, decided, by a
