Not illustrated. 1903 Excerpt: ...Everybody remembers how long he held aloof from Mr. Disraeli's showy policy, and how bitterly he resented the great surrender on the franchise question in 1867. I have in my mind's eye the picture of Lord Cranborne, as he then was, rising from his place below the gangway, and delving in his waistcoat pocket for the scrap of newspaper containing the famous 'Maundy Thursday' letter of Mr. Disraeli, which he read with sarcastic emphasis to the House; and I remember how for once the Tory leader grew pale with passion, and could hardly trust his voice as he answered his assailant.

In the later years of Ixird Beaconsfield's life Lord Salisbury was his most loyal and most trusted supporter, and from the days of the Berlin Congress he stood next to him in succession to the leadership.

He was, indeed, an ideal leader for the Conservative party. Cynic though he was, he was never unmindful of the duties which were imposed upon him by his position both in the political and social life of the nation. His chief fault in the eyes of his followers was, indeed, his complete absorption in those duties. He never mixed with the people who formed the society of his time, and was not even on speaking terms with the majority of his political friends in Parliament. He stood aloof, an unknown and almost mysterious figure in the world in which he played so conspicuous a part. For the vulgar publicity of the newspapers he had an absolute abhorrence. Mr. Gladstone once lamented the fact that he ...
