I have always had reservations about material in Wikipedia and suggest you
follow suit as it does not go through the necessary kind of scrutiny/rigour
found in the established press.
I think it is important to be specific about John Stuart Mill too as he is
otherwise easily confused for his father, also a philosopher. Further, it is
not incumbent on Santosh to correct the drivel you find satisfactory. It
would be better for you to seek reliable sources rather than expect Santosh
to waste his time, on your behalf, and daft logic, which expects a
correction to be made by Santosh in Wikipedia.
I read John Stuart Mill as an undergraduate many moons ago and definitely do
not recall him as a conservative. He was definitely in the Benthamite
tradition as far as I can recall. He was included in my university reading,
among several other political radicals. However, as I do not have the time
to revisit JS Mill for now, I will side with Elizabeth and Santosh for their
more recent reading of him. I therefore continue, I'm afraid, to be as
skeptical as ever, of most things from your source.

The quote I posted by John Mill was copied verbatim
from Wikipedia. If it is a distortion Santosh should
correct the Wikipedia record.

The above "quote" of John Stuart Mill is a gross
corruption of what he actually wrote in his
commentary on the American Civil War entitled "The Contest in America".
