Speeches by Sir William Wedderburn Bart M.P.

1899

Telang announced to the great joy and satisfaction of the Jarge audience that it was Sir William's intention to enter the Fuse of Commons and continue to work there actively and zealously for the best welfare of India and the Indians. [...] Timely concession to the reasonable wishes of the people always leads to a warmer appreciation o: the Government by the people and it is because I wish to see the existing sentiments of loyalty in the country strengthened and made more secure that I hope the main object of the Congress the expansion of the Legislative Council upon a partially elective basis may be speedily and favourably cos [...] In all countries we know that the interests of the people—that is of the taxpayers—are not identical with the interests of the officials that is the tax-eaters. [...] It is not only the policy of the present Government but it has been the policy of every Government of India for the last thirty years to extend to the natives of India not only a „share in the administration of their country but so far as is possible the management of their own affairs!. [...] But tile distance to England is great and the agency is -needed like a telephone to carry the voice of the people of India to the ear of the people of England.
