Excerpt from The Annual Register: A Review of Public Events at Home and Abroad for the Year 1890 Radical Unionists did in 1886, vote with the Opposition These were not imaginary dangers; and while he yielded to no man in his loyalty and devotion to their illustrious leader, he would earnestly and respectfully submit to him that such dangers as these ought to be avoided, and there ought to be forthcoming a broad and general outline on which the opinion of the country was intended to be taken. It was, however, improbable that any prominent leader of the party would accept the challenge thus thrown down. The risk attendant on the course Mr. Asquith recommended far outbalanced, from a political point of view, the moral drawbacks of reticence or con cealment but the dark allusion to rebels behind drew forth several angry protests from Liberals who were regarded, or who regarded themselves, as the spokesmen of certain small groups which might forsake their party if their special views were not fully represented in Mr. Gladstone's bill. The explana tion which found most favour was that the Opposition leaders were not fully agreed among themselves - Mr. Gladstone, sup ported by the younger Radicals, being supposed to be in favour Of a federal scheme, whilst Lord Spencer and Mr. John Morley held strongly for a mere delegation of purely Irish affairs to a subordinate Irish Parliament. Moreover, there was a feel ing (strengthened by the appearance of an article by Mr. H. Labouchere in an American review, the Forum) that the pro gramme of the more progressive Radicals was likely to put a severe strain upon the more cautious members of the Liberal party. The demands put forward, and widely endorsed by party organs in this country, showed that the Radical section would insist upon sweeping reforms in nearly every branch of the State service, many of which were altogether incompatible with the expressed views of the actual leaders of the Liberal party.
