ENGLISH PEERS ARE

b|RRELL
REASONS FOR THE CREATION OF
MOST OF THEM DECLARED TO
BE uNwoRTHY-LoRDs PRES
TioE GONE.
BY LADY HENRY SOMERSET.

LONDON, Jan. l4.-There Is no ques.
ton that we live In days when great
changes are imminent. Lord Rose
berry's committee OF peers has issued
its report on the reform OF the house
OF lords. and while 10 many the re-
forms are not drastic enough, when
once blow has been dealt at the
idea of a hereditary Legislature. the
whole principle upon which the house
of lords is now built must necessarily
be shattered.
That the peers should be elective,
that they should be called lords OF
parliament" 200 only OF the heredi
tary peers TO be elected by the 500
peers existing in the kingdom-all
these and many other changes are pro
posed. which must have beneficial re-
suits toward the reform OF a chamber
which Is undoubtedly out OF harmony
with the spirit OF the day.
Mr.. Birrell, in speaking OF the house
of lords let fall one significant sen.
tence which explains much OF the atti-
tude OF the present house OF peers.
IL find," he said, that half the peer
age were made in my life time, and
for the most part for reasons which
will not bear examination. Such a
manufactured association" he added,
demands criticism"
One of the most delightful lectures
to which II has ever been my privi-
lege to listen. was given by M. Rene
Bazin. the great French novelist. last
week In London.
NJ. Bazin took for his subject the
French peasantry.
He deplored the absence OF the edu-
Gated classes from the country.
He said that visit of q few months
was worth absolutely nothing, but that
the man who lived on his estate In the
country, who was the friend and adj
wiser of his neighbors, was a force TO
be reckoned with, and that II he were
a sound man he was a real influence
for good.
He said that 1t was impossible to
understand the French peasant or any
other peasant by running down to the
countryside for a few weeks, to col.
lect facts for literary purposes-that
one had to live the peaceful. monot
onous, restricted existence In order to
make friends, and that to get at the
heart OF the peasant yeu required
something more than curiosity-you
must love him If you would under
stand him.
He emphasized the fact that wom-
an In France was undoubtedly mis-
tress of the house. and commanded
great respect that she shared the
knowledge and the interests of her
husband, and was In this respect q
real partner.
you might be mistaken as TO this. .
he said IF you saw the meals OF a
great French farmhouse, where you
would observe row OF men sitting
at table, waited on by women: but
make no mistake about II, the woman
has always the upper hand. and IL is
she who elects thus to give the meals
to the men, not the men who com
mand her services"
Speaking to an interviewer OF lola
he said. 'Zola was a great man. but
he was the very last man in the world
to understand the genuine French
peasant.
Some Of their brutality and vice he
noted accurately enough. but he was
quite incapable of drawing forth the
jealousy guarded secrets OF their
hearts"

stated in their Jobs at the plant OF
the Pressed Steel Car company, the
$500 striking employees of the con-
corn in Schoenville ended a gigantic
mass meeting by violent quarres
among themselves. The result is
that two distinct factions among the
strikers have developed. one led by
Chairman G. A. Wise of the strikers
executive committee and the other by
fiery, unattached orators who gained
their following by heaping abuse and
invoctive upon the car plant officials
thus arousing the same spirit of mob
rule in their hearers and admirers
that brought on the bloody riots OF
two weeks ago.
The mass meeting was called orig
inally TO discuss the advisability Of
the strikers returning to work in a
body today. The strikers executive
committee had all but convinced the
men that they were powerless TO hold
out against the car company longer
as funds were low and sympathy for
the strikers on the ebb tide. when
orators heated in the denunciation of
the car company, its treatment of the
