Great Britain, sroaning under the

explaining the budget ito. the House of
,Comm9ns, Sir Michael. Hicks Beach,
Achapcellor Of the. exchequer, announced
that the ministry had agreed to the re-
imposition Of the ancient duties on fiour

been decided to impose a duty Of 5 pence
per ihundredweight ON Hour and 3 pence
per hundrcdweigkt on wheat and grain.
The chancellor denied that tile regis
tration' duties ON wheat and flour vio.
lated the principles of free trade, or
T'wcnld' increase the cost of food. He
thought the duties had been recklessly
abandoned and declared their remission

Almost before the announcement had
been completed in the House of Commons

It is claimed by some London papers
that the bread tax will cause the over

Revival Of the Corn Laws. 'u
The restoration of the duties on grain
by the British government is an ex-

it denotes. permanent change of policy

the wheat-growing countries of the world
and will affect the United States more
than any other country. The duty
amounts to about 311a cents bushel.
1t is lifty-six years since Sir Robert
Peel ended his remarkable career as a
statesman by repeating the so-callcd
corn laws. The story of that political
agitation is one of the most interesting
in English annals. The repeal of the
corn duties took effect in 1849, and from
that day to. this, no Tory ministry has
been courageous enough until now to re-
wye those duties. '''., ..y.,,,..
