+t-ofora NOT r,erelv IFS criticism and condem-
nation of Mr. Lloyd Georges budget, but also US
commitment of the speaker and his party 10 an
alternative fiscal policy in case he ana MS Ioi-
lowers win at the polls
THAT policy is tariff reform 1t is frequently
called a policy of protection which indeed 1t is
But II is also equally perhaps we might say
primarily, a policy of tariff for revenue Inc
Dresent customs duties of Great Britain are
numerous, perpleXing and burdensome, but they
afford no protection whatever to any BRUSH
industry-they are carefully devised TO avoid
that-and at the same time they fail 10 provide
n revenue adequate to the needs of the treasury.
The whole CObdenite system as it stands to-day
seems to have been devised by certain great
mercantile interests for their own exemption
from taxation. The contention Of the present
government is that those interests shall remain
untaxed while to raise sufficient revenue taxa
ton shall be greatly increased on others on
whom II already bears heavily. Mr.. BalfOur mas
committed himself and the UniOnist party 10
system which will make the interests which are
now exempt pay their prOpOrtiOnate share OF
taxation and thus raise sufficient revenue Tor
the needs OF the kingdom without increase OF
existing taxation. and he proposes that these
new taxes shall be so distributed to afford In
cidental protection to British industry.
With his logical mind and gift for tactics Mr
campaign on the most advantageous ground He
accepts the enormous burden of increased ex-
penditures which the Liberal party has imposed
upon the nation. If he returns to office he VIII
continue the old age pensions and other costly
public undertakings, and of course, he Will grant
(, army and navy the ample appropriations
winch he and his followers have been demand
ing But he will find the money for them not
by increasing existing taxes but by levying new
taxes upon copious and Opuent sources which
are now permitted to enjoy exemption and which
chiefly consist of foreign competitors with Brit
ish industry. The real reason for the proposed
new taxes and the heavy income tax is that the
needed revenue may thus be obtained without
abandoning free trade Mr.. Balfour prefers
abandonment of free trade to what he regards
as oppressive and confsCatory taxation The
world will watch with interest popular cam
paign waged on these lines, in which above all
else CobdenlSm will be on trial.

the Reclamation Service comes as something of

discussed the more admirable does IL seem THE
fact that Mr.. Barnard not only stands in the front

be appreciated So is the further fact that he has
long been very active and efficient worker in
the cause OF charity and the social uDIift though
so quiet and modest that comparatively few have
known about II. And the splendid Testimonial
