Speeches.

A Note OF Confidence In Sir Henry
Speeches.
TIE much discussed meeting OF
| British liberals called by Sir Henry
Campbell .Bannerman with the object
Of ,scertaining whether he still re-
tains the confidence of the party vas
held at the Reform club in London
TUESDAY afternoon, and resulted in
the sdopton of vote of confidence in
the leader of the opposition. All fac
tiurs of liberal imperialsts headed by
ii Il As1uith were there almost TO a
nau: but Sir Henry Campbell Ban
rerman aud Sir Willism Vernon Har-
court were the only two who received
any marked rscognition on entering !;
the crowd watching the arrivals greet
ed ttem with cries Of How's your
friend. Kruger
Sir Henry made q conriliatory
speech. The imperialists shove u hat
they that THEY would not be associat-
ed with any anti national Iolicy, but
the gathering was harmonious and
seems to have resulted in temporary
clearing of the air.
Durlt = Iue CuulSb VI us 'ito'Il Oii
Henry Campbell BanrermaD met the
mperialists go far as to say the war
must be brought to a victorious con.
clusion, but he thought the liberals
ought to insist on amnesty in the set
tlenent. While the country had the
sword 10 one hand it ought to have
the olive branch in the other and
show disposition to come to terms
with an enemy which had fought so
bravely.
Mr. Asquith expressed the highest
appreciation Of the qualities of Sir
Henry Campbell-l}annerman, but IS
the sane time he regretted that the
liberal leader 10 the House had not
been more outspoken 10 a policy of
honest differences, rather than an
impossible. attempt to reconcile differ
ences. He urged that those taking the
views which he himself held should
be free to express their opinions
within the pale of the party. Mr.
Asquith then supported the resolution
of confidence in Sir Henry Campbell
Baunerman.
