Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from United Australia: Public Opinion in England as Expressed in the Leading Journals of the United Kingdom The Times of November 4th published the despatch of Sir Henry Parkes of October 30th, addressed to Mr. Gillies, and within sixteen days from that publication nearly every influential journal in the United Kingdom joined in the debate on Australian Federation. Among the first, The Times, November 5th, says: - "No better method of testing the strength of the desire for union could be devised than the summoning of such a National Convention as Sir Henry Parkes suggests." And the article concludes: - "Sir Henry Parkes is a capable statesman, and his judgment is entitled to all respect when he pronounces the time to be ripe and the method to be feasible. ´ If that is so, the difficulties will gradually disappear, and the Federation of the Australian Colonies will before long be accomplished." Later in the discussion, November 16th, a leading provincial paper says: - "Criticism is the fire through which all new proposals of importance should pass, and if they cannot pass the ordeal they are better dropped. It must be confessed that the proposals of Sir Henry Parkes have come well, out of the criticism that has greeted them." In the following pages the principal articles of the English press are reproduced, with the name of the journal and date of publication. It will be seen that not only the London daily papers, but the great provincial journals, from Southampton to Aberdeen, and most of the economic and official publications, discussed the great Australian question.
