Beaven writes to the Editor: " No one except Lord C. him- self can, I think, say what his political principles are: I should make even that exception with reservations. In Dod while he was in the H. of C. he was styled 'Liberal Conservative,' the only M.P. of that date who was so styled. At his only election he defeated a Liberal, and he used to receive the Conservative Whips' circulars. As a peer from 1884 to 1892 Dod calls him Liberal Conservative, 1893 to 1897 „ „ Liberal, 1898 to 1909 „ „ Liberal U., igioto 1911 „ „ Liberal. He voted against Home R. in 1894. He has given general support to the present (19 1 3) Govt, so far and has accepted offices from it." V.G. () He is one of the numerous peers who are or have been directors of public com- panies, for a list of whom (in 1896) see vol. v, Appendix C.
