As was anticipated by me, the labor or
Eanizations are getting around the os-
borne decision Of the House OF Lords, |
which ruled against the imposition Of an
annual contribution by members Of labor
organizations for the support of labor
members Of Parliament A new body, I'M
der the title OF the Lancashire and
Cheshire Miners Labor association, which
was formed as a result OF the Osborne
Judgment, has adopted q scheme OF man
agement and appointed officers.
The membership Of the Lancashire and
Cheshire Miners Federation is about 5000
strong, and Il viii practically become the
membership of the association In other
words the new body consists practically
of the whole Of the Lancashire and
Cheshire Miners Federation, but the levy
instead Of being paid as heretofore 70 the
federation officials win be paid to the
officers Of the new political association
BY this means the old work Will be carried
on as In the past
EndfnG Land Monopoly.
Some OF the important English landlords
are selling their lands to theif tenants in
deference to the general sentiment against
land monopoly prevailing here. News Of
the intended sale Of Walter Longs Wilt
shire estate was received with regret by
the Aristocracy. Many farmers are ex-
pectsd to seize the opportunity Of purchas-
ing their holdings. Zoe estate totals 1880
acres, Of which about $500 acres are to
be offered for sale. The duke Of Devon
oontemplates selling some OF his lands.
The governments policy in regard to
the income tax which was forced by Lloyd
George was inspired By his desire to COM
pel the landed aristocracy TO cut up their
holdings and sell them 20 those who have
no land. II IL believed the government
win in time attack the law Of primogeni-
ture, which tends to keep the lands in the
hands Of few men,
Following the decision OF Lord Manvers
20 sell estates round nottingham the dow
ager countess OF Carnarvon has decided
70 sell her estates at Hucknsli Huthwaite
Blackwell, skegby and Kneeton. in Not
tfnghamshire. The tenants OF the Holme
Park estate, sonning. have received formal
notice that the property has been sold by
Mrs wade-Palmer.
Game Preservers Rnd the Army.
Colonel Gadke's hit at the English land
owners. who shut out the manoeuvring
troops from their woods lest their pheasants
should be disturbed. IS deserved The prac-
tlce of reserving game preserves IN the
ninnoeuvers are a cause OF Inconvenience
both to the STAFF who plan the manoeuvres
and 20 the troops who execute them, ami II
landowners are not patriotic enough 10

thing left viii be to compel them to do so
by law. The worst offenders are the game
