Mr.. BaIfOnr's Remarks.

London, Jan. 1.-THE frivolity dis
played in his recent speeches by Mr.. Bal
| tour, the government leader in the house
| Of commons, has landed what has been
known as the strongest government OF
| modern times in the slough from which
eNtrication is difficult if not doubtful. His
light hearted remarks, which were pleas
antly accepted by the nation when times
were good and all was well, are offensive
to people mourning for lost sons and
deeply angered by the unprecedented re-
verses. MIR. Balfour, if he had tried, could
not have more successfully put his coun-
trymen on edge, and when Lord Salisbury
speaks he will have much to atone for.
The memory of Mr.. Chamberlain's "alli-
ance" speech was dying away before Mr..
Balfour put his foot still deeper in the
mire. The conservatives hope that Mr..
Balfour will follow Mr. Chamberlain lead
and keep a discreet silence" AS the
Saturday Review, one of the governments
staunchest supports, puts it, "the admin
lstratiOn is now face to face not with the
opposition but the nation. ii is a crisis
out of which several must come with rep
ntations smirched and possibly result in
the wreck of the government"
