London, September 19. The Standard this morning says: "Mr. Gladstone's wordy manifesto is weak and disappointing. It is weak everywhere, and its ambiguity is perplexing. per-plexing. The address is vagueness itself. The writer aimed not to define Liberalism, but to gain as many and lose as few votes as possible in the coming general elections. It affords him the last chance of recovering his reputation. It is necessary, therefore, to extend him indulgence." |
