AsIuith's New Reform Bill.

London, July 1S.-Premier Asduith
has planned to go to the country for
q few days rest tomorrow. so he will
gather some of his followers together
this evening to put the finishing
touches on new franchise bill which
he promises to press for passage in
this parliament The bill is sweeping
in its changes, and because its rec
concentrations are so radical, some
suggestions have been made by mem
bers of the Asquith ministry, which
the premier thinks It wise to consid-
er. The document makes residence
or occupation the only qualification
and reduces the period required to
six months from twelve. 1t abolishes
plural voting, based on ownership of
property and the nine seats for the
universities The number added to
the electorate is estimated at 2,500,-
900. Opportunity for amending by
adding woman suffrage will be given,
involving some ten and one-half mil
lions more. No provision is made for
the inequalities in the size of par
liamentary constituencies, which give
one voter as much power in some
districts. For this reason members
of the ministry have asked him to go
over the measure again before pre-
senting 1t for passage. Already pre-
dictions are freely made of its failure
when 1t Is presented to parliament.
