What Is Happening In the Country
as Well as In the Cities and
Towns.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1909-11-02
BY Charles p. Stewart.


LONDON, Nov. 2.-England is
on the eve of the most important
national election In its history.
Elections in Great Britain do not
occur at stated times, as in the
United States. One is held every
time a government-or an admin
istration, as an American would
express it-resigns.
When a government comes into
power, 1t does so on the strength
of a national vote, giving one or
other of the great British political
parties-Liberals or Conservatives
"a majority of the members of
the house of commons. The king
selects the recognized leader of
the majority as his prime minister
and the prime minister chooses the
rest of the cabinet members from
among his political chief lieuten-
ants.
In the course of time, changing
conditions are liable to turn the
dominant party's parliamentary
majority into a minority, and as
soon as it becomes evident.
through some vote in the house of
commons, that this has occurred,
the government resigns and new
election is held. Sometimes gov
eminent resigns while still in a
majority, simply because a crisis
has arisen which makes the cab
met think the country entitled to
a referendum. In no case may a
government remain in office more
than six years. At the end of
that time it must resign, majority
or no majority, crisis or no crisis.
The present English government
is Liberal and it's leader is Prime
Minister Asquith. 1t has a large
majority in the house of commons
and it has been in office only four
years. But crisis has arisen
which makes the cabinet believe
the country should be given an OPP
portunity to express its opinion at
the polls. The Liberals are doing
a little preliminary canvassing,
spell-binding and fence-fixing in
the hope that they may win the
coming election, and as soon as
this work is finished, Prime Min
lister Asquith and his fellow men,

Superintendent Hussey of the
Provincial police today is rush
ing men into the Cariboo district
to take up the trail of the two
masked highwaymen who early
yesterday held up the Cariboo
stage at the 105-mile house and
stole several sacks of registered
mail.
The robbers were armed. with
rifles and succeeded in intimidat.
ing the driver and the few pas
sengers in the coach, after which
the robbery was accomplished
without resistance.
As near as can be ascertained
today the amount of booty Sc
cured by the road agents amounts
to about $4,000, although the ex-
act amount cannot be learned.
A reward of $500 has been
offered for the apprehension Of
each of the bandits and a posse
of provincial police is already on
the way to the scene.

bers of the cabinet will resign
This will probably be early il
January, but 1t may be earlier. The
election will follow.
The central campaign issue will
be the abolition of the house OF
lords. If the Liberals win and the
lords are abolished, there will still
be a nobility, but its advantage

purely social. A good many PEG.
pie think that so great change
only heralds the nearer approach
of the abolition of the monarchy
itself.
The Liberal party's contention
has been for years that the house
of lords effectually blocks and
must always block the execution
of the peoples will as expressed
at the polls.
1t is clear enough that this con-
tention is well founded. Suppose
the United States senate were a
hereditary body and that the sena-
tors enjoyed rights and privileges
denied to the rest of the people
The very fact that they enjoyed
these rights and privileges would
make the senators extreme conser-

thing in the nature of progress oil

masses. because they would feal

REMARKABLE TAX REFORM PROPOSED
BY LIBERALS IN ENGLAND

Roughly speaking, what Lloyd Georges bud
get proposes is this:
To place so heavy a tax upon swollen in

portion to the taxes they have hitherto lodged.
To tax unimproved land so heavily that it
will be too expensive for the holders to leave it
longer unimproved.

The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1909-11-02

specifies the taxes by which money
for these appropriations must be
raised.
Under the English constitution
the house of lords may reject the
Iburget-though it Is generations
since the house of lords has done
so on account of the shocking fin
ancial muddle it's rejection must
lnVolve-but 1t may not amend it.
Chancellor of the Exchequer
Lloyd George, a cabinet official
corresponding to the American sec
rotary of the treasury, resolved to
draft this years budget in such a
way as to embody the reforms the
Liberals had been trying for four
years to accomplish. He figured
that if the lords accepted the bill,
his work of reform would have
been wrought. But he did not
much believe the lords would ae-
eept it. In the event of a rejec-
ton, his plan was for the gov
eminent to resign and call a ma
ti0nal election with it's vital issues
the abolition of the house of lords.
Without the house of lords, he
1argued, the people would be able
to get what they wanted.
The rest of the cabinet agreed
to this plan.
The lords have taken up the
gage of battle. They will do one
of two things. The chances are
that they will throw the budget
out bodily. A certain moderate
element among them, however.
thinks 1t should be passed to
avoid the period of financial con-
fusion, which must follow its re-
lection, but that it should only be
passed upon condition that the
cabinet resign Immediately after
ward, and that the election be
promptly called. 1t is uncertain
which of these elements will win.
Either way will suit the Liberals.
The lords theory is that the
Liberals are determined to force a
flight upon them and that they
will do better to fight now than
to wait uptil they are weakened
by the operation of their enemies
reform schemes. Indications seem
to be that the Liberals will win,
but it is not certainty. English
men are devout worshipers of an
lcient institutions and intensely
fearful of change. Many men who
would unquestionably profit by a
Liberal victory will surely vote
the Conservative ticket from mere
strength of habit and hereditary
subserviency to the institutions
they have always known.
