Excerpt from Social Politics It does not appear probable that Disestablishment - which is attended and followed by Disendowment as the substance by the shadow - will ever be proposed by a Conservative Government. Educators as audacious and ingenious as any that exist will no doubt arise. But this would seem to be a task beyond their powers. And when in time to come, in days which I trust are yet remote, sorrowing admirers and sincere political friends are seeking an epitaph for their departed chief, it is by no means unlikely that Lord Beacons-field's monument may be graven with the words in which he denounced Disestablishment in 1868: 'If government is not divine, it is nothing.' That the government of Ireland, which, in the meaning of these words, has ceased to be divine, and is merely ducal, is far less onerous and more secure than it was ten years ago, is a fact which would shake the faith of many in the dogma that the salvation of a State rests in the principle of Establishment. But admitting improvement in Ireland, the Conservative party would point to the divinity which hedges the supreme Government in Whitehall, which blossoms in the offices of a Chaplain-General, of Queen Anne's Bounty, and of the Ecclesiastical Commission.
