GLADsroNE's REsIaNAr1oN.-.Mr
Gladstone's withdrawal from the lead
ership Of his party will deprive the
British Liberals Of the prestige OF II
brilliant name, but the event is sub.
stantial advantage to Us. his probable
successor, Mr.. w. T.. Folster, being
well known for his strikingly conspicu-
Gus friendship for this country. If
his reputation is not 80 great as that of
Gladstone. he is less erratic, aud has
the qualities for making himself more
popular with his party. Gladstone
was not successful party leader, and
often repelled u wavering member of
Parliament when II different policy
would have gained supporter. Where
Gladstone was petnlant, Mr.. Forster
would have been oonciliatory. The
resignation seems to have taken the
Liberals somewhat by surprise. The
action of the ex.Premier has obviously
created good deal OF soreness, and
both his constituency and his col.
leagnes on the opposition benches ap-
pear to think that his "personal views
regarding the method of spending the
closing years OF his life." decidedly in
teriere with hls usefulness in any par.
