ENGLISH POLITICS.
THE EDUCATION BILL. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright London, Oct. 16. Speaking at a banquet at the Mansion House, Mr Balfour made touching reference to tho debt of gratitude owed to Lord Salisbury’s words of encouragement when he declared the confident ability of the Government to carry the Education Bill, despite tho deliberate, mendacious, and dilatory character of the debate. Mr Chamberlain eulogised Mr Balfour, and said that no one had ever earned the confidence and regard of the Commons to a greater degree, and never broke a promise, or never lost a friend.
Mr Howard Vincent, addressing the National Conservative Union at Manchester, said the Radical protests against the preferential trade frightened the Government, so that Mr Chamberlain was not allowed a free hand in the Colonial Conference, and no wonder the Colonial Premiers were disappointed.
