TIE RRLTLSH ELEC1InN-


The most important election in Great
Britain for a very long time will occur
this month. On Monday the king signed
the proclamation dissOlving Parliament
and Immediately thereafter writs were
sent 10 the returning officers for the
election Of members of the new Parlia-
ment, which will assemble within thirty
five days. The first polling will take
place OH the 18th inst. according to 3
London dispatch. and the last poll must
close Oh the 9th so that within little
more than n fortnight the verdict OF a
majority of the electors will be known.
Parliament as at present constituted
stands as follows: Unionists, 800; lib
erals and radicals Including the labor
vote, 1888; Irish nationalists, 81. 1t is
estimated by the liberal leaders that the
result of the election will be as follows:
Liberals Including radicals and labor
vote, 3sS; unionlsts, 300: Irish nation
alists. 81.
The parliamentary campaign opened
some ten days ago and has been prose
cuted since with n great deal Of earnest
ness and vigor. The paramount ques-
ton Is that Of reform OF the fiscal sys-
TEN, though that Of Irish home rule has
n place in the canvass. At the begin.
ming Of this month Mr. Chamberlain
issued his election manifesto in which
he attacked the new government and
described il as being essentially home
rule and little Englander government"
He explained his fiscal policy and de-
clarcd his belief that IL successful Il
would give the largest amount of en-
plOyment at fair wages to the people.
The liberal leaders have been exceed
ingly active and the meetings they have
addressed have very generally been
marked by great interest and enthusi-
asm. 1t is campaign involving most
important possibilities for Great Britain
and the outcome Will be regarded with
universal interest. A victory for the
liberals. appears probable, though that
party Is not likely TO obtain the ma jOr-
ity In Parliament it is reported to be
figuring on.

DANGER TO CONSULAR REFORM.

The senate committee on foreign re-
lations Is preparing bill for the reor-
ganization OF the consular service,
but the outlook for the passage
Of such bill by congress does
not appear to be altogether favor

bin can he brought TO vote in the sen
ate II seems that much antagonism 20
the examination features has been maui-
tested and one report says that il is felt
that the elimination or practical destruc-
feet OF cutting out the part OF the bill
which Is Of most value. II Is said that
the plan for promotions IL expected IN
be- kept intact, but II can hardly be %
substantial value in practice unless en-
trance to the service Is carefully
guarded
one report says that Il Is an open
secret that the whole plan OF CONSULAR
re'oIm Is exceedingly distasteful 10 con
grrssmen who want To use the appoint
ments for political purposes and regard
them as one of the few sources OF pa.
trCragc that are left This is well M
dCTstood and II can he overcome only 10y
the exercise of public opinion which
will force all spOllsmen out of public
life and replace them by representative
OF the people who will give heed to the
public demand. The reorganization of
the consular service is required in tho
interest OF the great and growing for
eigu commerce OF the country and In
order that II shall be most useful and
beneficial To that commerce Il is essen
tial that II he divorced from politics
that il be placed on basis where merit
and efficiency shall he recognized and
rewarded. The proposed reorganization
contemplates the retention in the service
OF all who have been faithful aud zeal
Gus and efficient In the PERFORMANCE of
their duties, and the promotion OF such
as vacancies occur. 1t provides for the
appointment 10 the service only of those
who are ascertained upon examination
