man, _War secretary_. Lord Ripon, _Admiralty_. Mr. Chamberlain, _Local government_. Mr. Morley, _Irish secretary_. Mr. Trevelyan, _Scotch secretary_. Mr. Mundella, _Board of trade_. The Lord chancellor, Mr. C.-Bannerman, Mr. Mundella, and myself now sat in cabinet for the first time. After the two resignations at the end of March, Mr. Stansfeld came in as head of the Local government board, and we sat with the ominous number of thirteen at table. M108 On Procedure By Resolution 187 See Mr. Chamberlain's speech, June 1, 1886. _Hans._ 306, p. 677. Also Lord Hartington at Bradford, May 18, 1886. 188 June 1, 1833. _Hans._ 18, p. 186. 189 June 13, 1833. _Ibid._ p. 700. 190 May 14, 1833. _Hans._ 17, p. 1230. 191 There is also the case of the Reform bill of 1867. Disraeli laid thirteen resolutions on the table. Lowe and Bright both agreed in urging that the resolutions should be dropped and the bill at once printed. A meeting of liberal members at Mr. Gladstone's house unanimously resolved to support an amendment setting aside the resolutions. Disraeli at once abandoned them. M109 Two Branches Of The Policy 192 Lord Hartington's argument on the second reading shows how a resolution would have fared. _Hans._ 305, p. 610. _ 193 Hans._ 304, p. 1116. _ 194 Hans._ 304, p. 1190. M110 Important Resignations 195 Faint hopes were nourished that Mr. Bright might be induced to join, but there was unfortunately no ground for them. Mr. Whitbread was invited, but preferred to lend staunch and important support outside. Lord Dalhousie, one of the truest hearts that ever was attracted to public life, too early lost to his country, took the Scottish secretaryship, not in the cabinet. M111 Mr. Parnell M112 The Bill On The Anvil 196 See Appendix. M113 Forces For And Against M114 Scene In Parliament M115 Character Of The Debate 197 First reading, April 13.
