A RACE OF sNOBs.
That Is Title Given the English
by Henry Labouchere.

LONDON. March 6.-Henry Labou-
chere, in an article which will appear. in
tomorrow's Truth, will say: The re-
sponslbllity for the acceptance of peer
as prime minister rests upon the Radi-
Gals. Mess clear statement is made in
the queens speech that we are to have
different policy regarding the house
of lords than Lord Rosebery is supposed
TO entertain, some of the Radicals will
make 1t clear that they will decline the
unkering OF the perniciols assembly of
peers, and that the right of that body to
to interfere with the nation must cease.
Lord Rosebery's public. utterances
with regard 10 Ireland are not
at all satisfactory. The secrecy of
Mr.. Gladstone's resignation and Lord
hosebery's appointment was managed
IN a clever. but most unfair manner.
Had the proper time been given, at
least 100 Radicals would have protested
against the peer premier. We have not
only peer premier, bat peer in
poke. do not object TO any individual
peer because he was born in the purple,
and If Lord Rosebery is really a Radi-
cal the difficulty of his being a peer
may be surnounted by a bill allowing
peers to reneunee the privilege of the
peerage in order that they may sit in
the house of commons
MIR. Labouchere then proceeds to
argue that the house of commons can
not remain the ruling assembly while
the premier Is in the house OF lords. In
this connection he says: I'VE Will not
have real control over him, as we can
only turn him out by hostile vote at
the cost Of running the party. We are
also Idiots 10 suppose that the electors
VIII not perceive the utter absurdity of
our position when We appeal TO The
country with tue battle cry of the .abo-
lition OF the lords"
He concludes as follows: 81 am now
convinced that the Radicals dearly lcve
their lord. Love OF and subseryiencv
/ TO the titled is the weak spot in the
Angio-Saxon race. We are Il race of
snobs, and are never happier than when
indulging in all orgie of snobbism.''
