THE WAR now being waged by certain
elements IN Eugland against the House
Of Lords is becoming more pronounced
daiIv A dispatch from London says
that the attorney general, Sir John Wal
ton, who presumably spoke with the
ial knowledge Of the intentions OF the
sovernmeni, made an important decla'
ration in a speech at Leeds Thursday
nipht foreshadowing the government
programme for reform OF the House OF
Lords In the course Of his remarks
tho attorney general said that the "grim
aud serious work" upon which the liber-
MS we're entering "would mean a revo-
Luton and involve two or three dissolu-
tons" lie added that the House OF
Lords was entirely "Out Of harmony
with modern democratic institutions aud
must 60. The government would en-
deavor to give effect 10 the sill Of the
people by bills, which the peers would
probably throw ont, leading to q com
bnaiion Of the crown and people to de-
feat the arisiocraey." Attorney Gen
eral Walton recognized that the struggle
would be prolonged and exciting, and
would mean q complete Encouragement
If the constitutional and political forces.
The utility of two legislative branches
ina country has ever been recognized
by people who have made close study
of political economy. and in no country
in the world is this need moro apparent
than in England. Two houses Of par
lament a0Jrd safeguards TO hasiy aud
nnwise legislation, one acting as a cheek
wheel to the other. Shortly after the
Tinted States lhrew oil the apron s'ung'
Of tho mother county General Washing
ton VS., entertaining n foreign represer
taliyc who was violent believer in
dangerous republican dreams. snd while
they were at tho table the foreigner
was especially severe On the mainie-
nance Of dual legislative branches. Ht
asked Washington what particular good
would result 10 The United States by
having q Senate and House Of Represent
Aiives. The foreigner, in the meantime
was attempting TO sip bis coffee which
was boilicg hot, and eventually poured
il into a saucer that it might cool.
Washington, who had been moro o., q
listener than debater with bis guest
looked at tho decoctiOn in the saucer
snd told tho foreigner that the besi
answer ne could give him was illustrated
by his inability 10 swallow the hot coffee
The liquid, he said, comes hot from the
cup. which may represent the commons
the saucer, which cOols it, is type o.

tones down the work of many ill-advised
