THE HOUSE or LORDS

Characterized as IA Monstrous Hereditary
Adhesion Reforms Suggested by the
National Liberal Federation.
AT meeting of the National Liberal
Federation, held in Portsmouth, Eug, last
week, one of the resolutions adopted de-
clared that the house of lords, by its ha-
bitual disregard of the national will, had
become an unbearable abuse, and assured
the ministry of the support of the federation
on any measure the government may adopt
to secure to the house of commons para
mount authority in the state. LII comment
ing upon this resolution, the London Ctron-
tcte says; To argue with the lords as
though they had title to discuss their
claims with the commons, is to admit their
right of existence That right, however,
cannot longer be tolerated. Tue time has
come, thanks to Lord Salisbury and the
Archbishop OF Canterbury to cleanse the
constitution of this monstrous hereditary
adhesion"
