ex-Premier who has been in the eye of the world during the past few weeks, was born on Sept.7, 1836.His father was James Campbell, a wealthy merchant in Glasgow, who became Lord Provost of the city, was knighted, and settled on the estate of Straca- thro, in Forfar- shire, and his mother belonged to the manufacturing house of Henry Bannerman.From, both sides of the | house he inherited much wealth, and he adopted the naine of Bannerman on receiving his second fortune from an uncle in Manchester, Henry Banner- man.Sir Henry was educated at Glasgow University, and Trinity College, Cambridge (B.A.honors 1858, and M.A.in 1861).He married Charlotte, daughter of the late General Sir Charles Bruce, K.C.B., in 1860.He entered Parliament in 1868 as Liberal member for the Stirling 3urghs, which seat he continued to represent through all his parliamentary career, enjoying vast majorities at every election, generally in four figures.As long ago as 1871 his capacity for business attracted attention, when he began to climb the ladder of office.He was Financial Secretary to the War Office from 1871-4, and again from 1880-2; Secretary to the Admiralty from 1882-4; Chief Secretary for Ireland from 1884-5; Secretary for War in 1886, and again from 1892-5.He was Mr.Gladstone\u2019s Chief Secretary for Ireland when Home Rule became the burning issue in British politics in 1885, and for a time he could not see his way to approve of that policy.But in his own word, Sir Henry found \u201cSalvation,\u201d and never afterward wavered in his faith in regard to Irish policy.It was this habit of sticking to his ground that won him the powerful support of the Liberal Party which he enjoyed throughout the United Kingdom; while others set sails to catch the favoring breeze, or slackened in their THE EVENTFUL LIFE OF A BRITISH PRIME MINISTER.Sir Wilfrid stands on the left of Sir | RT.HON.SIR HENRY CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN, WHO HAS JUST RESIGNED THE PREMIERSHIP OF GREAT BRITAIN.devotion to this or that article of the Liberal creed, Sir Henry never doubted or was dismayed in the darkest days of his party.He became Chief Secretary for Ireland at a very trying time, not long after the terrible tragedy of the Phoenix Park in Dublin, when Parnell was at the very height of his power.Sir Henry went to Ireland, and came out of the ordeal very well.At least, he was accounted a good Chief Secretary who knew how to leave well enough alone.He was chosen Leader of the Liberal Opposition in succession to Sir William Harcourt, at a meeting of Liberal members held at the Reform Club, under the presidency of Sir Wilfred Lawson, on the eve of the opening of Parliament in February, 1899.At one time Sir Henry\u2019s modest ambition was to be Speaker of the House of Commons, and he could easily have had that office with the ensuing peerage, but for the fact that the Liberal Party considered him indispensable to any government they might form.His Leadership of the Liberal Opposition covered some of the most trou- blous times experienced by the Liberal Party since the Home Rule division.Notwithstanding the differences between Liberal Imperialists and other Liberals over the Boer War, a unanimous vote of confidence in his leadership was carried at a meeting of the Liberal Party held at the Reform Club in July, 1901.In 1902 a passage of words took place between him and Lord NN NT LAN AN Ne \u2014\u2014\u2014 unten, TS TT Ne\u201d Rosebery over the doctrine of the \u201cclean slate\u201d in regard to the Irish question and other public questions, and the Liberal League was formed.Sir Henry, however, again received the solid support of the Liberal Party in the House in 1903, 1904 and 1905 in opposing the Education and Licensing A ets, Mr.Chamberlain\u2019s Fiscal Policy, and the Government\u2019s action with regard to Licensing and to Chinese Labor tin South Africa.On the resigna- : tion of the Balfour J1 Administration in December, 1905, he was summoned by the King, and formed a Liberal Cabinet, himself attaining, at the age of sixty-nine, the ambition of the statesman, becoming Prime Minister of Great Britain and First Lord of the Treasury.The general election which followed gave him the most powerful majority ever commanded by any British Premier in modern times.In Parliament, Sir Henry was one of the most amiable of men, urbane, unassuming, modest, and open at all times to his own followers and to others.As a Parliamentary speaker and debater his reputation was always very high, good humor predominating in his speeches in the House.Lady Campbell-Bannerman died at Marienbad, August 30, 1906, her death terminating a happy married life of forty-six years\u2019 duration.On the Continent the rank of a broad and able statesman has been more readily assigned to Sir Henry Campbell-Banner- man than in Britain.There, people admired him because he looked the typical English gentleman, a refined John Bull, with much of that personage\u2019s weight and color, and because he was such a good fighter.Through all the dark days of the Boer War, when his party seemed hopelessly discredited and out of sympathy with the masses, Sir Henry stuck to his unpleasant task of leading the Opposition.This he did manfully and vigorously, undeterred by charges that he was a \u201cLittle England- er\u201d and that he sympathized with his THE BRITISH PREMIER ON LONDON STREETS\u2014Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman inspecting some oil paintings in the window of a picture shop in London.~~ NN me SNN NAN NAN
