THE FISCAL QUESTION.
WINSTON CHURCHILL'S VIEWS. Free Trade Involves Cheap Food and Honest Government.
LONDON, December 21. Mr. Winston Churchill, M.P., in a letter to Mr. Home, the Liberal candidate for Ludlow, where a vacancy occurred through the death of Mr. More, says that free trade involves two conditions, each of profound importance to the electors—cheap food and honest government. Mr. Chamberlain's victory would deprive the nation of both of these. It was expedient to consider whether or not the time had come for the free-traders of all parties to be united against the common enemy. There were millions of free-traders in Germany and America, despite the monopolies and all kinds ot corruption, who were struggling towards that liberty arm justice which England enjoyed. They must not extinguish their lamp of economy and truth among the nations when most needed.
