Whenever the Tories have q. large
majority In parliament the spectator
at Westminster 10 always amaxed ct
the number Of very young men who
enjoy seats In the house Of commons.
It IL doubtful whether In all the va
rious legislatures Of the United States
there could be found 20 many beard
less and wholly boyish faces as one
might have seen the other day in the
members Of the house. Certainly the
house Of representatives ut Washing
ton offers no sort Of parallel to the
Juvenility on show this season at st.
Stephens. Often the scene looked
more like some phase Of college com.
mencement than the gathering Of the
Oldest parliament In the world. have
said that this was q peculiarly Of
large Tory majorities. When the Lib
erals are in Office, and in heavily nu-
merlcal preponderance, on the com.
mons benches middle-aged and elderly
men are the rule.
It IL only rarely that youngster
get In as Liberal at an English cleo
tion. Plenty Of young men 60 to the
polls as Liberal candidates, but they
have almost invariably received the
nominations simply because success is
hopeless. They are encouraged to
spend their money and time on these
fruitless battles, on the tacit under
standing that by and by the party
whips will recognize their devotion
and give them a chance to fight constit-
uencies where there 10 some prospect
Of winning. Meanwhile the safe Lib
eral seats IRE practically all in possess
sion Of the graybeards, and In the
large lists Of boroughs and county d.
visions, where parties are tolerably
evenly balanced. very few Liberal can
didates under forty years Of age can
get nomination.
The most obvious reason for this Is,
Of course, that Liberal candidates have
to rely upon a demonstration Of per.
sonal fitness, Of individual acquaint-
ance with governmental problems, and
the thousand and one possibilities of
reform, retrenchment and so on, which
is not insisted upon with others. The
sober and thrifty middle classes-the
higher artisans, the small shopkeep-
ers, manufacturers and commercial
and industrial workers-are the people
who elect Liberals when they are
elected. And these people are not
easily captured by the glamor Of a
young mans smart manner and glib
ness Of tongue. They want gravity,
solidity and the evidences Of mature
experience and judgment They de-
sire to vote for q man who has made
money in his own business, or an es-
tablished position for himself in his
profession. Here and there an excep-
tionally brilliant youngster, particu-
larly If he Is Journalist. or barrister
who is doing well for his years, and is
favorite with party leaders. like Mr..
Gladstone or Mr.. Morley, may be ia
ken on trust by a Liberal local CON-
mittee.-London Cor. New York Times.

friend Of free silver, no matter what his

been done differently, it is very evident
