THE BRITISH CRISIS
XxXII.- Reforming the
House of Lords.
Pr. Erndaria I Has hin
MAINE.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

LONDON, June 5-The reforming of
the house of lords is a political question
of supreme Importance affecting all the
phases Of the present complex crisis in
British history. The house OF lords. as
every one knows. is a body based upon
the hereditary principle. Peerages are
granted by the crown to commoners be-
cause of distinguished service in politics.
grant of peerage entities the peer to a
seat in the house Of lords. When he dies
his eldest son succeeds him.
The inevitable consequence Of this sys-
TEN is that the house Of lords always
maintains a strong conservative ma
jortty. In the old days. before the ex-
tension Of the suffrage to the lower
classes both whig and tory parties were
aristocratic in their organization. and in
those days the lords were divided Just as
were the commons.
After the reform Of parliament In 1882,
by the elimination of the rotten boroughs,
and after the extensions Of the franchise
in 1857 and 1850, the democratic forces
became more and more dominant In the
house of commons, while in almost exact
ratio the aristocrats tended toward one
political party in the upper house. This
because SO pronounced that for the last
forty or fifty years the house of lords
has had an overwhelming conservative
party majority.
This has meant that when the conserva-
tive party was in power the house of
commons could pass a bill, and it would
be accepted as a matter of course in the
upper house, while the liberals in power
could only pass their bills through the
commons to meet certain rejection (or at
least adverse amendmenJ in the upper
body.

since 1885. The liberal party has been
divided as to method. the radicals pre-
ferring to end the lords, and the wings
advocating a measure to mend them.
The conservative party has been con-
sentative on this as on other subjects.
but even 1t has acknowledged the need of
some reform.
Indeed, the conservatives at the present
moment are more insistent upon imme-
date reform of the upper chamber of the
British parliament than are their ad-
versaries. There are two reasons for
this:
One is that under the parliament act
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1914-06-17

the house of lords now has only the
power to delay a measure. and not even
that power in the case of money bills.
Conservatives naturally deduce that IL
they could reform the upper chamber II
would be regenerated and baptized anew
with a restored public confidence.
Another reason for conservative activity
Is that during the nine years of the pres
ent liberal government SO many liberal
peers have been created that the aristoc-
tacy of the upper body is in danger OF
dilution. not to say corruption. by too
great an infusion of plebeian blood.
1t Is not only charged. but IL is admit
ted that a very great many OF the peer
ages created are given in consideration
of money donated to the party campaign
funds. Every political party in the his
tory of Britain has made a practice OF
selling peerages to recaup their war
chests
Thus 1t will be seen that both great
parties in England are agreed that the
house of lords
Both Parties Agreed shall be re
Upon Change. tna e' ,s-a met
ends The method and character of the
reform are controversial question.
provocative OF as much bitterness as the
Irish question itself
The conservative party has very gen.
orally approved of the plan suggested
by Lord Rosebery, himself former
liberal prime minister Lord Rosebery's
plan contemplates the recognition of the
hereditary principle. but denies to any
peer a seat in the house of lords solely
because of his inheritance
The Rosebery plan. in brief. consists
of three propositions: First. that a strong
and efficient second chamber is not mere
ly an integral part of the British con-
sttution. but is necessary to the we'll
being of the state and to the balance Of
parliament; second. such a chamber can
best be obtained by the reform and re-
constitution of the house of lords; third,
that A necessary preliminary of such re-
form and reconstruction is the accept
ance of the principle that the possession
of peerage should no longer of itself
give the right to sit and vote in the
house of lords.
Lord Rosebery's resolutions embody-
ing these three propositions were carried
by the house of lords in 1909. Later
on In the same year the conservative
plan was further developed by resolu-
ton providing that in the future the
house of lords should consist of three
classes: First. lords chosen by the whole
body OF hereditary peers from among
themselves and by nomination by the
crown second. lords sitting by virtue of
offices held by them: third lords chosen
from the outside.

Restless Flat DweIIers.

The restlessness of the fiat dweller
is national mystery. Why does be
go forth inevitably in the spring to
find another fiat and to insert his fam
lily and furniture therein? AS likely as
not it is the fiat which he abandoned
five years before. Since then he has &C.
cupied four other flats, each a vast
improvement over it's predecessor, and
he is now delighted with the new fat
which he left in disgust five years be-
fore. He has spent hundreds Of dol
lars in arriving at this stage of hap
piness. but he will abandon the fiat
again next year and fit on in a NOV
ing van as large as small chapel.
We falter, appalled, at the task Of dis
covering the fat dweller's purpose un-
til we consider the strangely similar
restlessness of the sick man who lies
on one side until he can't stand it any
longer and then. with the assistance of
his devoted family. is turned over on
the other side. The change is a de-
Gghtful relief. although a few hours
before be couldn't endure to lie on

Martha Dana Shepard Dead.

AS mentioned last week the death of
Mrs. Shepard will be of interest to
many Orleans county people and the
Monitor therefore prints an extended
account of her life as contained in a
Boston paper.
Mrs. Martha Shepard. long promi-
nently active in musical life in Boston
and the northern New England states,
died this morning at her residence at
u Alpha road. near Waldeck street,
Dorchester. She has been in failing
health for some years. yet Mrs. Shep-
ard continued her musical activities
and interests up to about year ago,
since which she had been forced to re-
linquish them. Her place had been an
unusual one in musical work.
Mrs. Shepard was born in 1912 in
New Hampton. N. H., and reached her
seventy-secOnd birthday anniversary
on July 2. She was the daughter of
Dr.. John A. Dana and Sarah Jane
Head Dana. Her early education
was gained in public schools and at
the New Hampshire Institution, and
her first musical training began under
her mother. The family removed to
Ashland. N. H., where her father
practised his profession. His daughter
came to Boston to continue her ad-
vanced musical studies under various
teachers, including Leonard Marshall,
B, j. Lang and H. F. Leavens. She
early made notable place for herself
as pianist and accompanist of remark
able ability and she also was a singer
musical centres in Massachusetts,
Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont,
as we'll as northern New York, Penn.
sylvania and elsewhere. She was as
ISOLATED in this work with Carl Zerahn,
who conducted musical festivals and
oratorlo performances in these states.
Mrs. Shepard not only was the accom-
PIANIST at the piano, but at rehearsals,
while playing she frequently would
break forth into song. her voice leading
the chorus singers in their work and
greatly helping them to learn their
allotted parts. AS a solo pianist she
was also woman of notable ability.
elm later years Mrs. Shepard's work
had been that of director of the Dor
chester Woman's choral class. She
was member of the club and she
achieved great results with the chorus
under her charge. She also directed
the Melrose choral club and at one time
choral club in Braintree. She was
for several years organist and musical
director of the Third Religious society,
the Unitarian church at Dorchester
Lower Mills. Apart from these and
other musical interests, Mrs. Shepard
was a member of New Hampshire's
Daughters in Boston.
''It is recalled that one of the oldtime
music books used by choral and singing
societies contained a compliment to
Mrs. Shepard. as four hymns, two each
on the long narrow pages in which
form books were then published, were
so arranged opposite each other that
the names of the hymns read as fol-
lows: MARTHA" "Dana,'' 'Shep-
ard." and Ashland" her home town.
Following her marriage. Mrs. Shep-
ard live1 for some years at Harrison
Square. Dorchester. Her husband,
Allen B. Shepard, who was connected
with the Armstrong Transfer COM
pany, died in 1900. and her younger
son. John Dana Shepard, who had been
a valued singing member of the cadets
and other amateur organizations died
the same year,
