The Bill Passes its Second Reading

LONDON, Special. Sir Willred Lawson,
resumlng the debate on the local taxation
Dill In the house of commons this evening
denounced the compensation scheme
which, he said would lead to

defended the compensation clause on the
ground of expediency and legality Mr..
Gladstone said he gave Mr.. Goschen credit
for sincerity in his attempt to lessen
the evils Of the liquor trade
but the means proposed were
utterly futile and dangerous as we'll. The
scheme might be described as bill for the
endowment of public houses. 1t was

public houses would be derived from drink

Therefore the highest duty that could be
levied was pre-engaged by the public funds

duce but tritlng restriction upon the num-
Der of public houses without correspond
ing reduction OF the actual traffic, The
measure was so framed that 1t would para
lyze every valuable principle embodied in
the existing law and throw back the tenn
perance cause indefinitely. Mr.. Gaines

The acreage is less than last year. The

with the question OF Impending war; but
rather with providing against the bur

a Blanc, OF which Prince Bismarck had
spoken, would in the event Of war, hold
good despite the ideas Of the Socialists. He
said that Prince Bismarcks bequest to his
successor had been SO clear and so peaceful
