courage and fierce warlike instincts.
which his self-control enables him
to repress on all other occasions
and betakes himself away from hos

it. from us to harbor a grudge
against the Honorable Henry

nor shall we, attempt to be sar-

meet that meek, humble editor
should have aught but a feeling of
wholesome and profound respect
and regard for an orator whose
oratory would cause the bravest to
flee, a boxer who boxes fierce]y be-

Business is business between a city

PEERS PLAN TO
REJECT BUDGET
MEMORABLE WEEK EXPECTED
IN PARLIAMENT a
HOUSE OF LORDS WILL NOT
ACCEPT ADVICE
That Lansdowne's Motion to Defeat
Financial Measure Is Certain to
Be Adopted Seems Fore
gone Conclusion

LONDON, Nov. 27-The coming week
will be memorable in British parliamen-
tary annals. A majority of the lords,
despite the warnings of such ex-
perienced politicians as Lord Rosebery
and Lord Beresford of Burleigh, have
decided to withhold their consent to the
budget, and it is foregone conclusion
that Lord Lansdowne's motion to re-
ject the finance measures will be car
ried by a large majority.
But while the result Is foreseen, in
terest in the debate remains undlmln-
ished, and the speeches to be delivered
on Monday and Tuesday are eagerly
anticipated.
Viscount Morley secretary Of state
for India, will reopen the discussion.
He will be followed by Lord Curzon,
former viceroy of India.
Then the financiers Will have their
say, Lord Rothschild speaking on be-
half of the unionists and Lord Swayth-
ling for the liberals. Earl Cawdor and
the Earl of Crewe will make the prin-
cipal speeches on Tuesday.
There have been no further develop
ments in the situation, and the dis
cussions in the press and about town
are confined to conjectures as to what
course the government will take.
Asquth to Speak
II is certain Premier Asquith will
give notice affirming the uncontrolled
right of the house of commons in re-
gard to financial matters.
There is a possibility Lord Balfour,
of Burleigh, will reply to this with an
amendment proposing that change In
the system of taxation of such I'M
portance should be referred to the
people.
The premiers motion, of course, will
prevail, and then 1t will be up to the
government to decide whether the
house shall be prorogued or merely
adjourned. -.
The decision of the government will
be of the greatest Importance so far
as finances are concerned, az the only
authority now existing for collecting
the income tax and other duties rests
on the resolutions passed Immediately
after the introduction of the budget.
If parliament is prorogued these
resolutions viii come to an end and
the collection of taxes will have to
stop.
The campaign will start In earnest as
soon as the chambers have been ad-
journed. Great meetings of both par
ties have already been arranged at all
the big centers, and thousands of
speakers and canvassers are prepared
to begin the work, which will be con-
tinued except during an interval for
the Christmas holidays

Strong Case, But

To those following closely the chain
of evidence that Prosecutor Heney has
brought forward to prove the charges
of bribery against Calhoun, the impress
sion must prevail that he has presented
a perfect case. 1t is difficult to see how
a jury of fair-minded men can fail to be
impressed by the overwhelming evidence
produced.
But suppose the jury does bring in IA
verdict of guilty! Suppose it does ap-
pear to the twelve men sitting in the
jury box that Calhoun did bride the
supervisors to get an overhead trolley
franchise. Suppose they do: what then?
Will Calhoun recline upon felon's
cot in felon's cell? Will he do penance
for the crime of having debauched
public servants for private gain? Will
he do timer
With the famous Schmitz decision >,
and the more recent and equally famous
Glass decision, to look back upon, may
there not be room for doubt2
The courts can undo all that the tire
less Heney and jury of twelve men
may accomplish, by sustaining the mer-
est exception based upon technical
grounds. Some ''error' may be dis
covered to save Calhoun from the fate
of a common criminal, even though the
jury should declare him guilty.
1t was thought that no court on earth
could pick flaw in the case of Mayor
Schmitz. But the appellate court found
a flaw. 1t discovered that the indict-
ment of Schmitz was ''defective' be-
cause it did not allege that Schmitz
was mayor at the time he committed
the crime for which he had been found
guilty and sentenced to the penitentiary.
As it was with Schmitz, and as it was
with Glass. so it may be with Calhoun.
