SCORE OF CONSERVATIVES CAST
LOT. WITH Il LIBERALS AND
GOvERNMEN WINS. #5
BISHOPS VOTE WITH MAJORITY
Measure Passed After Bitter Fiqht BY
Close Vote Of 1871 to NJ
Throngs See Opposition
Humiliated.

London, England. - Premier As.
quith's government, which claims to
represent the democracy of Great
Britain, enforced it's will upon the
peerage when the house of lords
adopted the. veto bill by the narrow
vote Of 131 to ia. By this vote the
house of lords decided to accept what
the Liberals contend is the will of
the people, and adopted Viscount Nor
ley's motion not to insist on the
lords amendment to the parliamen-
tary bill, which practically limits the
power of the house of lords to two
years suspensory veto and vastly in
creases the prerogatives of the house
Of commons.
The great constitutional struggle,
which began when the house of lords
nearly two years ago re-enacted the
budget Of David Lloyd-George, chan
cellor Of the exchequer, is ended for
a time at least, and with the greatest
change to Great Britain's working con-.
stitution since the passage of the re-
form bill. H.
The process of voting consumed
nearly an hour and the result trem-
bled in the balance until the last mo-
ment. The Idle hards'' mustered
greater strength than was anticipated,
and the government owes it's victory
to the votes of between 20 and 80
Conservatives who threw in their lot
with the Liberals to save their own
caste from loss of prestige, and the
king from the necessity of exercising
the royal prerogative for the crea-
ton Of many new peers, from which
everyone believes he was extremely
anxious to be saved.
Bishops With Government.
The archbishops of Canterbury and
York and nine bishops also lined up
with the government. The bishops of
Bangor and Worcester went with the
Halsburyites, the "last ditchers." The
highest ranks of the nobility furnished
the fewest supporters of the govern
ment. The dukes of Norfolk, Leeds,
Marlborough, Newcastle, Northumber-
land, Somerset and Westminster vot-
ed with the opposition, while the 9TH
er dukes abstained from voting.
Drinking the hemlock" had be-
come an historic phrase in past
months, and the gathering in the an
Gent chamber last night to witness
this memorable humiliation was
worthy of the occasion. Peeresses,
ambassadors and commoners packed
the galleries. The benches, aisles and
floor were crowded.
Lords frequently forgot the oppres-
sive dignity which customarily marks
the progress Of the upper chamber
and fought for hearing. The earl
of Halsbury once went so far as to
make a motion that one of his sup.
porters be heard in preference to one
peer who favored the government.
When the voting began Lord Lans.
downe withdrew to a position behind
the throne, but his followers watched
the issue eagerly. The bishops on
both sides walked through the tellers
first. A thrill of excitement marked
the appearance of each notable, but
none was greater than when Lord
Rosebery appeared as supporter of
the government. a.. 70

climate. 1t is the boast OF San Diego
that in no other place would it be pos
sible to guarantee a perennial exhibition
in the open air.
1t is to be located in Balboa Park, near
the center Of the city, which has more
than 600 acres and commands a view Of
the bay and the beautiful landscape that
surrounds it, All the buildings will be
permanent. They will be of harmonious
design, after the mission school, which is
so appropriate to this climate, and after
the close of the exposition will belong TO
the municipality. The result will be 800
acres of park permanently improved; an
auditorium with which to capture con-

IS A NEW PARTY.

It is a fact not without interest,
and perhaps not without significance,
that every eighteen or twenty years
new party has been formed that in
general way represented the rights
OF the people as against special
privilege and that attained consider
able proportions. In 1854 the Republl-
can party was born. In 1874 the Green
back party came into existence. At
one time it polled nearly one million
votes and by fusion with the DEM
ocrats elected several governors and
mem bers of Congress.
Ii 1892 the Peoples party appeared.
Two years later it polled almost two
million votes. At one tine it had a
half dozen governors. as many Sena-
tors and in the neighborhood of
twenty members of the House of
Representatives. Eighteen years from
1892 brings to to 1910, or it twenty
years be considered tthe period, that
brings US to 1919. This consideration
is lent added force by the striking cir
cumstances that at this very juncture
the county is discussing ana seemingly
expecting new party and that the
progressive movement has arisen in
much the same way that the other
movements arose and represents ia
a general way the same tendencies. In
all except name it IS really IN itself a
new party. All that remains to make
the parallel complete is for it to de-
clare for independent political action

acres of farm land. He was the leader

that tribal customs would not be dis.

Secretary Of War Discusses

MAINTAIN NEUTRALITY LAWS
Reason for Sending immense Body OF
United States Troops to the in.
ternationaI Boundary.

New York, March 1T do not be.
l1eve there will be any movement of
our troops into Mexico" This was
the statement here of J. M. Dickinson,
secretary of war, who plans to sail
for Panama shortly.
There can be no excuse for inter.
vention,' continued the secretary,
unless the Mexican government
proves negligent in protecting the per.
sons or the property of foreign resi-
dents, and such negligence would have
to be firmly established, in my opin.
ion, before any such step could be
taken. There are no conditions now
existing to give us such warrant.
I'm order to maintain the neutrality
laws it has been deemed advisable to
send troops to the border on account
of the immense length of the frontier
and the fact that the Rio Grande can
be crossed at almost any point larger
number Of troops has been dispatched
than otherwise would prove neces
sary."
