THE HOUSE OF LORDS.
Preferential Trade With the United Kingdom
Discussed by that August Body.

LONDON, May 2S.-In the house of lords
Lord Dunraven moved for copy of the
motion agreed to by the Canadian parlia-
ment April %, regarding preferential trade
with the United Kingdom. He said he
considered the motion distinct proposal
for reciprocity with every part of the
empire. This is the first time such a pro-
posal has been advanced by elf-goyern-
ing colony In practical shape. He thought
the suggestion should be attentiveIy re-
ceived by Great Britain
Lord Salisbury made a very practical
suggestion at the beginning Of the session.
when he proposed that the colonies be in
vited to confer with the home government
on the subject. 1t would greatly increase
Britaln's export trade with Canada. ard
expand her manufacturing industries
But as Great Britain levied no duties on
food imports, it would be necessary to
place an adyalorem duty upon them bv
purchasing a reduction of the dutv
imposed on British manufactured
goods by Canada by imposing
a lower duty on Canadian raw food pro.
ducts imported into Great Britain. than
that levied on similar imports from other
countries. The duty on food products

farthing, and would give an immense
impetus TO corn growing in the British
empire. The French duty en- imported
wheat has not increased the price of bread
in France. He did not believe the adoption
of his proposal would lead to any sacrifice
Of other British commercial interests.
Such measure, he held, was necessary TO
avert disintegration of the empire. which
free trade was gradually producing.

ter was of the greatest Importance to the
country. The government agreed to ac-
cept Lord Dunraven's motion because il
was obvious parliament should know Off
cially what specific resolution Canada
would come to, but he hoped to be clearly
understood. He did not agree with Lord
Dunrayen's arguments of policy fore

herself of foreign engagement without los

DR.. G. a. Hoover, the great expounaer
of Republican principles, will debate here
tonight on the tariff question with Hyrum
Grimmitt and T. L. eileen for the Demo
cratic party. The debate will be held in
the court house. Although Hoover said
here some time ago that he would not de-
liver another speech for the Republican
party, but now has changed his mind and
has expressed himself that there is no man
in his party can expound the principles Of
Republicanism like him. The Democrats
are pleased, for every speech that
Hoover makes turns those who were
a little favorable to Republican principles
to the Democrats. Douglas Xix and ]. G.
Rich knocked the legs from under him on
the tariff question in a debate at Mont

to persuade him not to debate any more on
that question, but he thinks he is the savior

a Thing of the Past.
The Entire Premises Given to the Territory
for School for Deaf and

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The legislative
appropriation bill has been reported by the
committee on appropriations, to the House.
The most important feature and the one

abolishing the Utah commission.
The total appropriation is 81, 6S2, 752,
which is Sl,070,2S6 less than the estimates
The appropriation for the current fiscal
year is s22, III, S74, being S45S, 122 more
than recommended in the bill. Thirty
nine clerks of senators who are not chair
men of committees are abolished. In the
House the compensation of twenty-five
additional members who will enter under
the new superintendent, is provided for.
A summary disposition was made of the
Industrial Christian Home of Utah, in
Salt Lake city, which was founded as
refuge for Mormon wives who had aban-
doned polygamy, by granting the entire
premises to the territory as a site for its
deaf and dumb mutes, until Congress shall
otherwise provide.
