Description: department commerce labor political economy Professor Gide letters Parlament. Found in the estate of Martha Jane Kennedy An initiator of the Revue d'économie politique in 1887, Gide was a proponent of the French historical school of economics.[1] Gide was one of the few endorsers of Léon Walras, as they shared a social philosophy, social activism, and disdain for the "Manchester-style" economics of the journalistes.[1] Burt became secretary of the Northumberland Miners' Association in 1863, then, in 1874, was returned to parliament for Morpeth,[2] alongside Alexander MacDonald, a fellow miners' leader. Burt stood as a Radical labour candidate with Liberal support and formed part of a small group of Liberal–Labour politicians in the House of Commons in the 1880s and 1890s. After the 1892 General Election, William Ewart Gladstone appointed Burt as Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade, in which capacity he served until 1895. Despite the emergence of the Independent Labour Party and the Labour Representation Committee, Burt remained loyal to his backers in the Liberal Party and refused to join. He was sworn of the Privy Council in 1906[3] and continued to represent Morpeth in Parliament until 1918.[2] From 1910 to 1918 he was Father of the House in the House of Commons. Burt resigned as general secretary of the Northumberland Miners' Association in 1913.
