THE LABBY COyTROTERsP.
The Sovereign Has a Right TO Choice OF
d. Ministers.

LONDON, August 3l.-The Chronicle to-
day takes up Mr.. Laboucheres side of the
controversy in regard to the Queens infiu-
ence in preventing his appointment 10 the
cabinet. and says ii is time for the question
OF royal interference IN such matters 10 be
threshed out.
The Pail Mall Gazette. also Liberal, says:
"The Premier. in complying with the ob-
lection of the Sovereign To nomination.
accepts the whole responsibility. he can
insist upon his nominee if he chooses. but
if he does not think his proposed colleague
of sufficient importance TO Justify. the
necessary pressure be has no right 70 shield
himself under the objections OF the Soyer-
eign."
The St. James Gazette. Conservative,
says: Tho radical view OF the Queens
position and rights is OF more importance
than that much cracked vase. Mr.. Labou-
chere's reputation for decency. j. the
Queen acted as described she was absolutely
justified On the strictest constitutional
theory that the Crown has choice, II the
Premier begins course Of hardly concealed
revolution with chance majority depen-
dent on the Irish vote. the sovereign might
dismiss the ministers, dissolve Parilaanent
and appeal to the country"
The Globe. Conservative, says 1t Is an ex-
ceedingly strange doctrine that &c oldsthat che
Crown has no sort of right to an opinion as
TO the choice of ministers Cases are easily
conceivable whore the neglect of the soyer-
eign to Interfere would be grave breach OF
duty.
