BALFOJR SHOWS NEW IJGOR.
VIII Probably Pass Education 1911 and
Avoid the Predicted Crisis

LONDON, Oct. is.-The British political
situation, which has been described on both
sides as critical. has developed no feat
ures during the lively two days sitting
OF Parliament suggesting the imminence
OF crisis. On the other hand, the Govern.
ment has maintained it's almost normal
majority on the Education bill divisions.
II is becoming increasingly evident that
the popular revulsion Of feeling against the
Government is not really based on the Edu-
cation bill which is only being used as
the most available weapon. Hence il hap
pens that the [ ,.onists will be able to mus
ter almost their iuil support on the details
of that measure 1t is even probable that
II will pass by fair majority and the popu-
lar opposition will be compelled to find
Intellectual expression at such by-elect ions
as chance may provide. 1t is reasonable
10 suppose, however. that a man Of Mr..
Balfour's sensitive political honor would
decline to remain long in Office il the rebuke
administered at Leeds and Bury were re-
peatcd a few times
Mr.. Balfour has surprised and plea sed
even his opponents by the vrlity and
courage Of his utterances during the present
week. He seems 70 have dropped the role
of a dilettante politician. which has sone-
times given the impression Of weakness
on serious occasions. He is now showing
the qualities of a vigorous. aggressive
statesman who is thoroughly in earnest
IL Is clear that the extra session Of Para-
ment Is going To prove quite lively enough
