BALFOUR'S BELIEFS.
The New Government Leader Laughs a
r. the Liberals

The New Government Leader Laughs at
the Liberals.
LONDON. Dec 1.-Mr. Balfour, first lord
OF the treasury, delivered political ad.
dress at Hudders6eld to-day.
He said that Ireland, as an electoral cry
was played out. The Liberal leaders ap-
peared to be in doubt whether to play on
home rule or the agricultural vote. The
Liberals had promised to deal with the
question of village councils, but this was
but clumsy method Of putting coping
stone on local selfgovernment. 1t was not
likely that village councils would ma
terlaily alter the condition OF the laborer.
After announcing that MIR. Chaplin, the
president of the board OF agriculture, would
at an early day introduce small holdings
bill. Mr.. Bal our pointed out that some diff
hculty would arise rom the vital difference
between the conditions in Ireland and the
conditions in England. In the former
country, he said, small holdings were
already in existen &c, while in the latter
they had to deal everywhere with large
estates, with buildings which would become
worthless by conversion into allotments
He rather doubted the success OF the
Liberals espousal of the agricultural oues-
ton. Their heads, he said, had been
turned by election successes.

large enough to have made good
