No national exigency is given as a reason
FOR the expected dissolution of the British
Parliament within the next three weeks. The
Conservatives simply intend to have the cleo
ions held under the old registration instead
If the new, by which they would lose votes.
This may be political craft; it is not states
nanship.
Mr., Hewitt says: al think that if those
"cpher dispatches had been traced home
"to me, / should deem it a disgrace
/" from which 1 would never recover"
Mr. Hewitt happens to be an honorable man,
