Mr.. Chamberlain has quietly dropped out
of controversy in which he appeared to less
advantage than Lord Randolph Churchill. If
he were rash in challenging the Birmingham
Tories to political muster with the Liberal
Unionsts, he is diplomatic in returning what
our London correspondent in his cable letter
describes as q soft answer 10 his antagonist 5
uncomprOmising and heated letter. Mr. Cham
berlan was undoubtedly greatly elated over
the success of the younger Bright and the CON
i,h ba obi A.
tives for the Liberal Unionists; and his salts
faction found expression in ungenerOus and al
most contemptuous treatment of Lord Randolph
Uhmchilrs supporters. This was a mistake

Dropping and he had the consolation of know
ang that his candidate had been elected for
central birmingham, and that Lord Randolph
Chuschiii would not be formidable rival in
tnat great political centre 81 long dominated
by himself.

bogus Linson BILL and arayed themselves sod
idly against genuine ballot reform. The hill
now goes to the Governor, who will be com
pelled to show his hand. If he vetoes H. he
will once more brand himself as caring more
for the political bosses than he does for slo
aroused public sentiment in favor of improved
election methods. The Senate also passed the
Excise bill. In the Assembly two of the
most important measures of the session, the
