LLOYD GEORGE'S FUTURE.
WAITING FOR A LORD NORTH. LONDON, May 24. The Times, in the course of a leader on the Parliamentary session, says:—" The past is too much with all parties to allow any to be sure where it stands at present, , which ■■ is especially ■' true of the National and Asquithian Liberals, who occupy the political centre between the Conservatives and Socialists. . A The Conservatives are likely to remain the most united and homogeneous party,' unless badly led. The apparent unity of the Labour Party is mainly due to the fact that it has never been in power. It is easy to be harmonious in disproving the work of others "'Mr. Lloya* George's position," continues the article, "is as uncertain as was Chatham's after the peace. If Mr. Lloyd George is _to recover the leadership be must wait until the incompetence of some Conservative or Socialist Lord North gives him the opportunity which his strange,temper and failing health prevented Chatham from taking. : ; "We wonder," the leader concludes, " should the day arrive, whether Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. Asquith would do what Chatham and Rockingham failed to do—forget the differences of the past, and unite to seize the opportunity of the present."
