Howard Evans (journalist)
Howard Evans (1839–1915) was a British Radical and Nonconformist journalist. A. J. A. Morris has called Evans "an energetic, able journalist with pronounced nonconformist sympathies".〔A. J. A. Morris, ‘(Edwards, John Passmore (1823–1911) )’, ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, Sept 2004; online edn, May 2009, accessed 18 April 2010.〕
==Youth==
During his youth there was still a religious test for Oxbridge. One had to conform to the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England to study there. As he wrote in his autobiography:
I wanted to go on and compete for an Oxford scholarship, but my father told me that if I wanted to go forward then I must conform to the Established Church. As he had brought me up to regard Cromwell and Milton and Bunyan as the great heroes of the Primitive Apostolic and Puritan faith, he was not surprised that I answered ‘Never! Never!’ Ever since then I have done my best to avenge that wrong, and have taken a keen delight in standing by other victims of priestly arrogance, which does the devil's work in the outraged name of the God of all goodness.〔E. F. Biagini, ''Liberty, Retrenchment and Reform. Popular Liberalism in the Age of Gladstone, 1860-1880'' (Cambridge University Press, 1992), p. 242, n. 309.〕
Evans wrote in 1878 that "I believe firmly that in politics as well as religion God has his own elect chosen out from the rest of the world to be the pioneers of progress".〔Biagini, p. 35.〕
His father introduced him to the Chartist movement, and he was soon involved in the Reform League. He led a group during the Hyde Park demonstrations.
