opposition.

The business of the opposition is to oppose, to critise, to be on the alert and to pounce upon defects in the adminis tration and only sometimes to co-operate, It is only in this way that a government can be kept efficient, that mistakes can be corrected and injustice avoided. A good opposition is, therefore, essential to good government.

The Labour Party, which was recently considered the only alternative to the Conservative Government, is now looked Tatsupon as too narrow in its loyalty to be considered as worthy of the trust. The main charge against it, is that it is in spiritual subservance to the Trade Unions, from which it must take its orders. The other parties at different Messrs.
