BY THE EDITOR OF THE LONDON
CHRONICLE

Especial Cable 10 the Chicago TribuneD
LONDON. Nov. 22.-The British liber-
ais regard the action of the house of
lords in threatening to throw out the
budget as an act of war against rep
resentative government.
All of the power and pride and mai
esty of the house of commons are de-
rived from it's hitherto unquestioned
control over the finances of the nation.
From the days of the Plantagenet kings
the commons of England have jealously
guarded as their peculiar right the
granting. of aids and subsidies to the
crown. and even under the powerful
Tudor monarchs this right was pre-
served intact
In bygone centuries the three estates
Of the realm, the barons, the clergy and
" in the house of lords, in convocation
and in the house of commons, voted
separately their money grants to the
crown.
As commerce and industry developed
and as the towns grew the commonalty
became more and more important, and
in process of time the representative
house of commons. as the microcosm of
the nation, became predominant in
finance.
1t has long been a maxim of the
British constitution that the crown
demands money, the commons grant it,
and the lords assent to the grant"
BY its uncontrolled power over
finance the house of commons has been
able TO thwart the arbitrary, acts and
break the tyranny OF kings, Tecogniz-
ing that if it lost control of finance
it would lose everything.
Liberalism is fighting to preserve the
British constitution against foul con-
spiracy which is directing a blow at
its heart 1t is fighting against feud-
alism in its last intrenchment. 1t is
lighting for the masses of the British
people to save them against exploita- :
tion by monopolists on the one hand,
and on the other to protect them
against the vicissitudes Of life and in
dustry by old age pensions and a
scheme of insurance against unemploy-
ment
Finally, liberalism is fighting for its
own life. The house of lords will never
establish its claim to control the
finances of the nation except over the
PROSTATE body of the British liberal
party. Were this audacious claim TO
succeed, every future government
would depend for its existence on the
caprice and favor of an irresponsible
hereditary assembly, for If the lords
can destroy one budget they can de-
stroy all budgets.
But this claim of an insolent aris-
tocracy can not succeed. 1t is opposed
alike to the genius of the British peo-
pie and to the spirit of their free con-
sffflfffnn

BUDGET WILL TELL

Discussion Has Become Epoch
Making Battle Between the
Lords and Commons

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-The discussion
of the British budget has turned into
an epoch making battle between the
house of lords on the one hand and the
house Of commons and the liberal min
istry on the other. The lords plan,
when the final vote Is taken Thursday,
to throw out the entire budget, as they
have no amending power.
Betause of the Importance of this
struggle to Great Britain and indirectly
TO the world. the Tribune has asked
the editors of some of the greatest of
the London newspapers for their opin-
ions on the budget One of them, c.
Arthur Pearson, principal proprietor OF
the London Standard. and the London
Express, is defendepf of the lords; the
other the editor of the london Chron-
icle, chief organ of the liberal party,
has thrown his power to the commons

Circuit Will Be Organized Now
That Sunday Games Are
LegaIized.
JEssUP BACK or PROJECT
He WILL MAKE A TOUR OF VAR.
ious CITIES PROPOSED AND Is
CONFIDENT Ne WILL MEET
WITH SUCCESS.

The enactment of the Sunday base
ball bill into law will result in the
organization, within the next six
weeks, Of an Indiana State league. As
every city in the proposed league could
play Sunday baseball, promoters of
the organization are confident the ven-
ture would be financial success.
Clarence Jessup. former manager OF
the Richmond I. O. league team, is en-
thusiastic about the formation of such
a league and will do everything In his
power to promote the organization. He
stated today that he would, within q
few days, make q circuit OF the pro-
posed cities and try to stir up interest
in the project.
Richmond to Have Team.
He proposes to visit Hammond,
Gary, Laporte, Lafayette. Muncie, An
derson, Logansport, Kokomo, Marion,
Huntington and Peru. He and sever
al other Richmond fans will back the
club to be located in this city. Ofthe
eleven cities to be visited by Jessup, he
is confident of lining up at least sew
en- to fill in the circuit with Richmond.
An article of baseball fully as fast
as seen by the fans in the Ohio state
league would be supplied the Hoosier
fans and the new circuit would be un-
der national protection, probably as a
class C league. Lovers OF baseball In
Richmond will undoubtedly do every
thing in their power to support Jessup
in this venture.
