How the Ven ESIsieHCe Of the House
Of lords Is JsOpdrdIzed by
the Fight on the Bril-
lsh Budget.
pv LANES a. EDcERToN.


RS the British house Of lords about
TO be abolished or radically shorn
Of it's powerg That Is the larger
question looming up behind the
fight over the budget ir England. The
warning Of Lord Rosebery that the
very existence OF the upper chamber
Is in jeopardy was not an idle threat
1t was given all the more force BY
the fact that Rosebery himself Is Np-
posed TO the budget He would iike
to see 1t defeated. but questions either
the right or the policy Of the lords 70
bring about that defeat. He regards
the stake as too great In destroying
the budget they destroy themselves
He was ably seconded by Lord Bal
four Of Bnrleigh, who in plain English
told the peers that fthey won in their
fight against the budget their victory
would be but temporary, while II they
lost the defeat would be permanent
They would not only fail in killing the
budget, but would end their own
power
LII adopting Lord Lansdowne's ho-
tion to reject the budget pending an
appeal TO the nation it is contended
that the peers are guilty Of twofold
usurpation Of power-one against the
commons and the other against the
king. Since 1858 the exclusive control
OF financial matters has been in the
house OF commons. For the lords now
TO assume the right to reject a finan.
cial measure is the first act Of usurpa-
tion. Lord Lansdowne's motion re-
quires a dissolution Of parliament
The right to dissolve parliament, how
ever, belongs to the crown. This is
the second act OF usurpati0n.
The Day of Settlement.
The rejection of the budget is not
the first offense OF the lords. Severa

other reform measures proposed by
the present government and passed BY
the commons have met their death in
the upper chamber. just as Gladstone's
hcue rule bill was killed few years
agc. All these things have been al
lowed to accumulate against the day
of wrath They have not been forgot
ten. They We're kept in allegiance only
TO be presented as different counts
in the indictment when the people Of
England came to pass Judgment on
their house Of peers. Has the day OF
settlement finally come?
The British budget is the omnibus
financial measure Of each year, con-
tanning the taxation and revenue pro-
visions. The present one, over which
all this fight has been raised, is de-
nounced as socialistic. but the detini-
tion is not accurate. The budget is
more in line with Henry Georges sin
gle tax. which is quite another thing
from socialism. The single tax, or a
modified form Of it known as the land
tax. has already been adopted in por-
tions Of the British empire. notably in
New Zealand and Australia. This
measure would put it in force in Eng
land, Scotland and ireland. The tax
is laid with especial emphasis on the
'.unearned increment is, the
value which is put into the land by
the community and not by the owner.
For example. man owns farm near
which or on which springs up city.
Because Of the city the land increases
immensely in value. although the in
dividual owner has contributed moth
ing to that increase. 1t is made wholly
by the community. This is the I'M
earned increment. and on such social
value accrning in future the budget
lays its iinpost There are other pro.
visions in kind: also considerable tax
on liquor II is the Iaad tax and liquor
tax that have caused the trouble
Lords and Liquor Interests.
In Great Britain the land Is largely
owned by the lords, and it now tran.
spires that these scions Of nobility are
financiaa.y interested in the liquor
concerns. Between the two they get
It both ways They are being M in
the pocketbook. and that ~ the reason
they are usurping power that nc

question is now 70 be answered by the
electors Of England, Scotland aud Ire

There are more than GOO peers in the
three realms. but ordinarily only a
few attend the sessions Of parliament

ARE ENCLAND'S PEERS DOOMED !?
What the Budget IS and Taxes That
Caused the Trouble -Esirdordl-
nary Debate That Has
A. Amazed q Nation.

Most OF them are never seen within
the precincts of the house of lords.
They are not only absentee landlords.
bat absentee legislators. The budget
fight, however, brought practically all
OF them to London. They swarmed
out Of their castles as the rats swarm
ed out of Hamelin town at the call OF
the Pied Piper. Hundreds Of strange
faces appeared in the upper chamber
that never were seen there before and
perhaps never will be again. 1t was
the holders Of special privilege rush
ing to the defense when an attack on
privilege was threatened.
The ensuing debate is one that win
be long remembered in England. though
not for its brilliancy. 1t amazed the
nation To call it schoolboy affair
would be to insult the schools. One
minister termed it babyish. Outside of
a fcw men like Rosebery and BaIfour,
Lord Salisbury and the Earl Of Crewe
ii displayed lack Of grasp, breadth and
statesmanlike qualities. 1t was selfish,
personal. sordid. 1t was the whine OF
spoiled boy. When not petulant it
was deadly dull. 1t was an attempt at
argument by men unfamiliar with in
tellectual habits. Yet the spectacle had
its educational value. 1t showed to
the British people their 50 called nobil-
ity in its true light II stripped of the
glamour Of nalle and tradition. At the
disiIIusionment the people at first gasp
ed and then laughed
The Feet of Clay.
That debate doomed the house Of
lords-if not next year, then in the
near future. 1t revealed these peers OF
the realm as selfish and allied to the
worst elements in the kingdom. 1t
showed them to be not only common
clay, hut as beneath the average in in
telligence and morality. Today English

We are unable to give a complete
list of the cups and prizes awarded but
the handsome large cup presented by
Baker Brothers was won by the Chad

car also won the sterling silver cup
presented by the Philadelphia Even

on the track at these races. This cup
is to be competed for each year until
won twice in succession by the same
make of cal when 1t becomes the per-

Hotel Wayne cup, presented to the
Newark Auto Club in the invitation

Immediately after the presentation
of the prizes the fireworks display was
started and for an hour the spectators
viewed the grandest and prettiest ex-

$50 p. M. the last train was scheduled
to leave Wildwood for Philadelphia
and it was filled with enthusiasts, well

three attem pts and q spirited argument
between Manager H. B. Larzelere, of
the Chadwick Company; Referee Gross
by and the other race officials.
The best time Zengel was able to
make running over the course in the
regular way, starting at Anglesea and
running to Wildwood, was as As on
his first trial and A on his second at
tempt. Thereupon Larzelere demanded
that he be allowed to send the car a
third time against the record, starting
from the Wildwood and finishing at
Anglesea, thus escaping a heavy wind
which swept up the course, and he con-
tended cost fully three seconds.
In support of his demand he pointed
out that the Fiat reversed the course
run when it made last years record,
and he was entitled to the same oppor-
tunity. 1t was granted him and q no.
table victory followed and incidentally
he won a handsome gold medal donated
by the ladies of North Wildwood for

RENEWED ANXIETY WHEAT FALLS OFF
Over Antitrust Laws, Shown BY
Large Corporations Movements,
Shocks Stock Market.

New York, Nov. 27.-The stool
market suffered today from a reeur
renee of anxiety over the anti-trus
law, also from satisfaction of con
siderable part of the demand from
the outstanding short interest built
up in the weeks break in prices. This
divorce of the Frisco from the Rock
Island system was accepted as a fact
and was attributed to fears of prose
eution under the antitrust law, de-
spite the assertions to the contrary
designed to counteract this influence
The break renewed, copper stocks
caused another of the sudden changes
OF opinion over the chances for the
proposed copper merger, which kept
the stock market unsettled all week.
Some large selling was attributed to
wealthy capitalists of the speculative
habit who are connected with great
corporations Immediately aimed at in
government suits under the Sherman
law.
This suspicion Of the source of the
selling emphasized the apprehension
over the results to follow from the
antitrust prosecutions in their larger
bearings on the general position of
corporations. The Rock Island issues
themselves were strong, the decision
to dispose of the Frisco being regard
de apparently as a beneficial step
The bank statement showed sub
stantial loan reduction both by clear
ing house institutions and others. The
supplies Of commercial
paper and the diminished inclination
of banks outside of New York to alb
sorb these offerings, are noted as
possible signs Of increasing firmness
