D mistake to predict the issue of the next general
Election from the bye-eectiops. He feared that
unless the Liberal Unionists presented their policy
more clearly and showed greater activity and
vigor the cause of union would be much endan-
gcred. The Irish policy of the Liberal-U Unonists
had never been developed as whole. Hitherto
they had been compelled TO present the case

remedial side of the policy must clearly be placed
before Parliament and the country, thus giving
the country chance for its approval accom-
panied by vigorous condemnation of the unscru-
pulous tactics Of lis opponents.
