King Edward in Towering Rage
Because He as Been Drawn
Into the Pending Political
Struggle.
SITUATION EMBARRASSING
Standing Is None Too Sc
cure, and King Does Not Desire to
Offend Either Party-Does' Not
Want to Figure in Politics at All,
But There Is No Escape.

London, April 2S.-Lively stories
are current of the towering rage in
which King Edward has been for the
last fortnight over the dragging of
his personality into the pending po-
litical struggle in England. He is
said to have had an outburst of
fury, when first told, during his
stay at Biarritz, of the complication
in which he had become involved,
which seriously alarmed his attend
ants concerning it's effect upon his
health.
Embarrassing, is, as matter Of
fact, no name for his majesty's po-
sition, premier Asquith, goaded for
ward by leader John Redmond Of
the Irish party, has placed him in a
situation where he must either be
denounced by all conservatives as
wild eyed anarchist or by all liber.
ais as a reactionary tyrant. Mon
archys standing in England is p0pe
too secure Just now, at best, and to
earn the enmity of either great par
ty might easily mean It's complete
overturning. Edward realizes this
and doesn't want to figure in pol-
tics at ALL But there is no escape
for him.
The premier's open declaration In
the house of commons that he will
demand the creation of enough lib
eral peers to make the house OF
lords a liberal body for the purpose
of depriving the upper chamber OF
its powers, caused all the trouble.
OF course king and premier have
discussed the matter before but they
have always done 1t confdentially.
So long as it was between those two
alone, no harm was done. But now
it has become public property.
If the king creates the peers he
will not only create havoc with the
conservative party but he will an
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1910-04-28

tagonize every vested interest IN
England and make the possession of
a title joke forever after. II he
refuses he win admit himself an
enemy Of progress, And the issue
is to be put to him squarely.
He has also other troubles in
sight. II he does refuse, as he is
expected 10 do, premier AsQuith will
resign. 1t will then be necessary
for the king to ask conservative
leader Balfour to form cabinet.
The latter will probably decline, but
If he accepts he will be voted out Of
Office on the first ballot on any
question raised in the house OF COM
mons. Upon this, his majesty will
be placed in the ridiculous position
Of having to ask Mr.. Asquith to re-
sumo office. He will surely refuse
unless he gets his liberal peers.
There might still be one recourse
left to Edward-that of dissolving

to conduct the postofice, maintain
army and navy or pay the police.

happen. The climax will come soon
after parliament re-assembles fol-
lowing the present recess-that is,
late in May OF early in June.
