PREMIER BALFOuR.

Lne On1OnlSL party. IQlS MT. BalT0ur accomplished without committing the government either to protection or free trade.
 In a whimsical vein MT. Balfour ex- plained that the only reason that the corn tax was put on was because the government wanted money, and the only reason it was taken off was be- cause the government wanted money no longer. Reverting to the charges of vacfllation, the premier declared that he himself, though a believer in free trade (which statement met with loud applause), did not regard it as a fetish, and he had absolutely an open mind regarding the necessity for any alter ations in a system which was founded to suit conditions of fifty years ago. He refused not only to make a state ment of any finality upon such an im- portant question, but he also refused to compel his colleagues to conform to a standard of opinion upon which he himself had an open mind. He admit ted that differences of opinion existed within the cabinet but these were not serious enough to cause the resignation of any member.
 MT. Balfour made an impassioned plea, enforced by the precedents of friction in MT. Gladstone's ministries, for allowing the premier to retain an open mind upon question so difficult and so superior to all party issues. The speaker did not believe that the coun- try would ever return to the old pro- tective system, and no tax on food was ever imposed without the full assent of the working classes. They were con- fronted, however, continued the pre- mter, by three great phenomena-Iauge tariff walls against the United King dem, the growth of the trusts and the desire Of the colonies for closer fiscal union with the mother country These factors could not be ignored. He main- tained that the method of starting a public discussion was the only way to deal with them, though he did not com init himself to Mir. Chamberlains more advanced programme. It would be fol- ly and rashness, he said, to interfere with the great system which had been in operation for so many years without the most careful examination and without due regard for history and the traditions of the past.
 The effect Of his speech will gener- ally be taken to mean that the tariff issue is to be shelved for the present.
 Henry Chaplin's amendment, which gave rise to the most interesting debate of the present parliament, was defeat ed by the overwhelming majority of 396 votes, composed of Unionists, Lip- erals, Irish members, MT. Chaplin's ad- herents and almost all the followers of the government while many others of the Conservative party abstained from voting.
