MR RAPHAË BI
Methods of Campaign,
I am indebted to some thoughtful corre spondent for a copy of a curious publicat on entitled the West Newington, Conservata ve, which engaged in the arduous under: taking of recommending Mr Raphael “Belilios as a fit and proper person to repre. sent West Newington in Parliment. Having come all the way from Hongkong the worthy candidate naturally throws him- self into the fray with the utmost zeit, and
observe that one of his speeches, as re- ported in this friendly organ, ended with these inspiring words Buck up every- one, and help me, and see if we cannotwin," Mr Raphael Belilios has, I understand, the priceless advantage of youth, and he rallies his friends in a charmingly unconventional
manner,
His free and easy oratorical methods are not denied by his friends, for I observo that in another report the West Newington Conservative remarks that anything in the nature of a set peech was impossible, through the bad behavior of Radicals present, and Mr Belilion had. to interject & number of colloquialisms whenever he got a chance."
One who has heard Mr Betilios assures me that his favorite colloquialisms are, What the devil?' and Blow me tight' "romarks which ought to convince the most stubborn opponent. It would not be fair to suggest that the only en couragement offered to the faith. ful is an ardent invitation to buck up. They had a smoking concert the othernight in support of the cause, and I notice that one of the singers gave in an amusing style the song Nothing at all to pay. I am not acquainted with the song, but if it has a chorus I can faging the Conservatives in West Newington joining in the chorus with wholehearted rapture. Those words, Nothing at all to pay describe the ideal state of things among the Conservative workers in many a London constituency just at present. These gentlemen take on in- terest in the prospects of the millennium they are quite content with things as they are, and no wonder.
They are the real free-fooders, and free everything-elsers. All over London, night after night pewter and glass being drained, and truly Imperial pints are being lowered, and night after night, as the stalwarts sepa. rate, fall of their subject, the cheerful re- frain is still ́ nothing at all to pay." Why should these gentlemen want a general election 1 Such an event would stop the
fun
and so I am not surprised to hear that at a smoking concert in the North of Lon- don recently tremendous enthusiasm was evoked by the following verse, given as what
is called anoncore':
May
these concerts be kept up for many a night,
Just in the old sweat way,
May the Government ait most Imperially
tight
Just in the old sweet way,
And through the whole evening may each
jolly dog
Pull away at his pipe and imbibe his hot
grog
Till his features resemble the moon in a
Just in the old sweet way.
Blow me tight "and nothing at all to pay sum up the plan of compaign followed by most of the Conservative candidates in London,-Home Paper
