LONDON, Oct. 23.-In q speech at West
Calder today Gladstone referred to the re-
suits of the recent election as forecast of
the triumph of the Liberals in the coming
general elections. He advocated the prin-
cipie OF lone man. one vote )" and shorter
pariiaments. Commenting upon the enor-
nous power the workingmen now pos
sessed. he said it would prove beneficial, as
the Judgment of great questions by the
masses was more enlightened than BY the
educated classes. He would not venture a
decisive opinion on general eight-hour
bill until he saw definite measure. He
was inclined to think eight hours enough
for miners. Speaking OF the struggle be-
tween labor and capital, he said that among
the means workingmen ought to select in
order to strengthen their position, lawful
combination was the most valuable. Most
OF what the men have gained in the con-
test with capitalists has been through ju-
dicious combination.
EDIEBuRGH, Oct. % Gladstone is great
y eiated by the return OF q Liberal from
Eccles, and to everyone who speaks to
him on the subject he expresses delight at
the great victory which his party has won.
