THE INSURANCE BILL.
RADICALS AND UNIONISTS. • ; y Cable—Frees Association—Copyright. Received 12, 11.50 p.m. London, February 12. The Master of Elibank, at Edinburgh, declared that as the Unionists had made the Insurance Bill a Party measure the Government would use the whole of its power to force the party machinery, in order to convince every household that the Bill was due to the Radicals. If it was not approved after its technicalities had been explained the Government was prepared to stand the shock.
The Conservatives were not attacking Home Rule on its merits. It would be a triumph to a Democratic Government and give strength to the Empire where it was now weak.
