POLITICAL CONSPIRACY.

LONDON, November 17. A wonderful reception was ac corded Mr. Lloyd George's Abst speech in the Liberal campaign at 'Northampton when a packed hall of nearly three thousand people thundered applause.

The ex-Premier declared that this was not a general election; it was a conspiracy. Mr. Bonar Law placed a buoy in the channel, but the mutineers had got hold of a weak man on the bridge and per suaded him to pull up the buoy, and the ship was going head-long on the rocks unless the people changed the crew. The conspirat- ors were now putting Lords Derby, Salisbury and Robert Cecil under the hatches (Laughter and cheers) | with the object of canning thêm before they were able to crawl away. Derby had managed to trust out a claw, but he had been - captured and hermetically sealed and was now on sale at the Tariff Reform counter. The Govern- ment's fiscal proposals were a sub- terfuge and plant. The settlement of Europe remained the first necessity; they wanted protection not from French goods but from French militarism.

We suggest so and so," then they say: "We are very sorry; it is either too late or too soon. (Laughter). We will talk to you later." That Britain, who spent ten thousand million and lost nine hundred thousand lives, whose sacrifices and courage saved these countries from vas- salage, is of no account, was humiliating, and because they had made a mess of it they were trying to divert attention to something' cise.

MR. BALDWIN'S MANIFESTO, In a manifesto to his consti- tuents. Mr. Baldwin says the objects of imposing duties on manufactured goods would be::

First, to raise revenue by less unfair methods to Home production; Secondly, to give special assist

ance to industries suffering from unfair foreign com (petition;

Thirdly, to utilise the duties in order to negotiate reduction of foreign tariffs;

Fourthly, to give substantial preference to the Empire on the whole range of duties. The manifesto montions oats as amongst the articles on which duties would not be imposed and intimates that the additional re- venue would be devoted inter alia to the reduction of the duties on tea and sugar.

It says that a substantial portion of the seventeen light cruisers and a variety of smaller craft required in the next few years will be laid down as soon as Parliamentary sanction has been secured in order to assist the shipbuilding Industry:

The fact that the fight between Liberals and Labour pro- mises to be as keen as the struggle between the Free Traders and Tariff Reformers means tull-blood- ed triangular contests throughout the country. The Conservatives have been reunited, at least on the platform, by the promise of Lord Birkenhead and Mr. Chamberlain to support Mr. Baldwin in their constituencies, although conditious
