( Rhymney Valley Echoes. [BY 'rftEOOBDBB."] ) The Compton House agreement-or THE agree- I tnent between Rhymney's famous and rival choirs-Í5 interesting inasmuch as it shows that amidst the heat of rivalry agreement on one jpoinr WAS found possible. By the terms of the Compton House agreement—as far as this se- J *ret "treaty" has been disclosed—it was under- stood that the United Choir were to have the j USE of the Middle Rhymney Schools for their practices—subject, I assume, to the consent of the public through the Managers. j *«- But in November they seem to haTe a- f floned the territory thus acquired, and then the CR/ent CHORAL—"with the consent of the pow- ers"—were permitted to occupy the abandoned lioiition. ) The Rhymney United, seeing this, have lodg- ed an objection with the consenting powers with The result that the Gwent Choral Society have bad a limit placed upon their occupation at the inspiration of which the whole question will be Jeconsidejred by the consenting powers. So a xind of Berlin conference may be expected in Ihe near future, and one need not be surprised- |f one morning they are made aware that or- tiers have gone forth for the mobilisation of the jBeet. That fleet, however, would have all its Jwork cut out to sail up the well fortified river AND bombard the iron town. C ( I heard one speaker the other night declare t the Budget was a broad platform for every- one to put his foot on. I could have understood I this from a Conservative, but I am sure the ^LIBERAL advocate did not mean to suggest the Areading UNTISR ioot of Lloyd George's Budget. Another speaker said the fools were not in I JWales, and so I assume they are aome where jelse—doubtless across the Channel or the At- ;lfimtie—although another speaker, on the same [occasion, reminded the audience of Carlyle's 'statement that in these islands they numbered close upon 40 millions. This mikes one thank- lful to be in the minority.

Pontlottyn Mineral Rights. ¡ f I ACTION IN CHANCERY. In the Chancery Division on Monday Mr. Justice Parker commenced the hearing of the action of Brewer v. the Rhymney Iron Company, Ltd., an action for an injunction and damages. The defendants leased certpin mineral rights at Pontlottyn, and there was an agreement that they should work the coal in a proper and workmanlike manner. The plaintiff contended that the defendants had committed a breach of this covenant, and hence the action. The defendants denied the alleged breaches, and said that had they worked a certain seam as required by the plaintiff the surface and buildings thereon would have been injured. Mr. Romer, K.C., and Mr. McSwinney (in- I structed by Mr. W. S. Gustard, Newport, Mon.) appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Upjohn, K.C., and Mr. Ward, K.C. (instructed by Messrs. Gwilym Jame3 and Co., Merthyr^ for the defendants. Mr. Romer, in opening the case, said he did I not think it would be in the least necessary to trouble the Court with the plaintiff's title, as the leases were granted by the plaintiff's pre- decessors in title. Both leases were dated April 25th, 1890. The two leases between them referred to demised coal under 346 acres, let on a lease of 40 years from January 1 at, 1890. It was covenanted that the coal should be worked continuously, except in case of strikes or acci- dents, in a fair, proper, and workmanlike manner. If the eeafli became exhausted before the expiration of the lease the other sea.m should be worked in succession, but that no working should be carried on in such a manner as to make it more difficult or expensive to work the seams next below or above. According to the intent and meaning of that one or two of the seams demised to the lessees, and known as the Raslas Seam or Red Coal Seam, were to be worked in a certain way. One Raslas seam was lower-than the other, but they were only separated by about a couple of feet. Roughly speaking, the seams were about 650ft. below the surface. Counsel said that instead of pur- suing the longwall or Barry system, they I pursued the system which, so far as he knew, bore no name, but it was a system which they I contended was most improper and wasteful. The result of the pursuing of that system was that the other work would be more difficult and I expensive. Counsel then read the defence, in which the defendants denied damage or I breach of the covenant. They also expressed their willingness to work out the coal of the plaintiffs, or indemnify them against any damage for which they might be liable. Evidence for the plaintiff was then called, the first witness being Mr. Theodore Vachell, mining engineer of Cardiff and Newport. He stated that the defendants by their working of the mine had increased the amount of small coal. He had never before seen such a system as that adopted in working the 42 acres. It j appeared to be an exaggerated stall system. Mr. Upjohn said he wanted the Court to say that having regard to the circumstances affect. ing their title hisjclients' method of working was correct. I On Tuesday Mr. Theodore Vachell, mining engineer, of Cardiff and Newport, again went into the witness-box, and was cross-examined by Mr. Upjohn, K.C. "Do you say," asked counsel, that if in working the coal you took out 25 per cent. and left there 75 per cent, that would not be a support for the surface" No one," replied witness, would be so foolish as to do it." Counsel: I am not asking you for com- ments. I am putting a question? Witness: It is impossible to answer a question about an impossible circumstance. His Lordship: Supposing the workings were divided into strips of ten yards each, and you left a pillar at the end of each strip, would it affect the surface ?—Witness I think it would. It would only be a matter of degree. If you take any coal out of a mine—even 10 per cent. 1, The case was adjourned.

East Glamorgan Contest. ¡ SIR ALFRED THOMAS'S CAMPAIGN. I STIRRING LIBERAL MEETINGS AT FOCHRIW. SIR ALFRED THOMAS IN FINE FORM. On Thursday night, Sir Alfred Thomas ad- dressed an enthusiastic meeting at Fochriw. Dr. E. Davies, J.P., presided. Mr. Evan Owen, of NELSON, opPDed the meeting with a. rousing speech on current politics. COUll. John Jones proposed a resolution in favour of Sir Alfred Thomas's candidature. He aid that their can- didate was an ideal member of the progressive forces, an excellent committee man, and a staunch supporter of the Budget. He pointed out some of the great blessings foreshadowed in the Finance Bill, such as labourexchangætL aod-ihitiranoe against sickness. The land clauses in particular, he said, were for the benefit; of the working HHHI. Mr. George Thomas, Foch- riw, in seconding the resolution, said that Sir Alfred Thomas Lad been a true supporter of every Liberal measure since he entered Par- liiment 25 years ago, and that he WAS more ex- itBi-ienced now ihan ever he was to champion the progressive cause. Coun. Rhys Jenkins, Fochriw, supported the resolution, and urged ihe Liberals to bestir themselves in orler to return their candidate with ;I greatly increased | majority. Sir Alfred Thomas, who was received with loud and prolonged cheere, said that tho chief question before the electors was whether the I people or the peers were going to dominate the country? Which was it going to be. the peer and beer cn the one hand or the people on the other hand He was strongly in favour of do- ing way with the veto of the Lords still, he was a SECOND chamber man, but that chamber ) must be an elected and a sensible one. The present House of Lords was greatly one-sided and obsolete, and ought to be done away with. The peers said that the Budget was a revolu- tionary measure, but they themselves did the most, revolutionary and unconstitutional action i;y rejecting it. Now they were beginning to :ee their folly. The Budget was a bundle of treasures for the working men of the country. Mr. T. C. Thomas, Bedlinog, followed with a rousing speech. He said that before long the peers were going to be squeszed out of exist- ence between the Budget and the people. Many years ago they used to hang people for stealing sheep from the mountain, but they never heard of any one hanged for stealing the mountain from the sheep. He said that Tariff Reform was only a system to make the rich richer aJid lht poor poorer. Comparing the cost of com- modities of other countries with the price in this country, ho gave the following table:- England: Butter. Is. bread, 6d. tea, 2s.; jam, lOd. Germany Butter, Is. lOd.; bread, 9d. Austria: Tea, 1ú.> jam, 3s. 3d.. For every £1 that the English miner paid in rent the Ger- man miner paid £1 4S. 6a. For every eight hours that tile English miner worked the Ger- man miner worked nine hours. The average wage per day in England was 6s. The average wage per day in Germany was 4s. 6d. The number of unemployed in England was 7.5 per cent. the number of unemployed in America was 30 ner cent.; in Germany, in the city of Berlin afone, last month, there were 60.000 out of employment. Those were the fruitf of Tariff I Reform. The German miner lived to a great extent on black bread and horseflesh. Let them stick to Free Trade. Sir Alfred, said the speaker, was the first to introduce a Bill which j made provision for pensions for the aged poor: I and he was strongly in favour of present I old age pensions. It was not true to say that Sir Alfred was against old age pensions for the poor. As regards royalties, he said that Lord Bute received £50.000 a year in royalties from the parish of Gellygaer without contributing a penny to the rates. L.ncier the Budget one- half of the royalty tax WO-JM 1, returned to the parish in relief of rates. Miss Lizzie Jones. Kochrr»% sang a Welsh election song in a spirited manner, which rais- ed the audience into a very high pitch of en- thusiasm. The Rev. Isaac Roderick proposed a resolu- tion in' favour of the Budget; and the Rev. Moses Young seconded. A vote of thanks to the chairman was proposed by Sir Alfred Tho- mas. and seconded by J. D. Jonas, the School- house. This concluded a splendid meeting. MEETINGS AT RHIGOS AND HIRWAIN. On Saturday, Sir Alfred Thomas visited Rhi- gos and Hirwain, on the confines of his con- stituency, and addressed two very successful meetings. At Rhigos the schoolroom in which tin meaiing was held, was filled with elector* fiom that part of the district. The Rev. Mr. Llewellyn, of Pontneathvaughan, presided, and the vote of confidence in Sir Alfred was carried with acclamation. Ar Hirwain in evening the meeting was held at Ramoth Baptist Cha.pel, Mr. T. H. Eva AS in the chair. Sir Alfred, who received an ENTHUSIASTIC reception, dealt with the Lords and the Budget, declaring the latter to be wor- thy of a Christian country (loud applause). The proposed insurance fund, he said, would, by contributions from the State, the employers, and the workmen, PROVIDE FOR relief in the case of illness and unemployment of every kind. The Labour Exchanges, too, ^■•v.J'ID do much, not in making work, but in DIRGCTINJ unemployed workmen to where it might ba iocmd and in helping them to get, to it (loud applause). By I tho afforestation scheme, too, work wouid. bs found, and yet those Tariffists tried to induce the electors of East GHI morgan to believe that the Budget and Liberal policy did nothing to help the unemployed. Ho appealed to all pre- sent to support him, including the ladies, for he was a supporter of women's suffrage. He had for A quarter of a century carried the wo- men's suffrage banner in East Glamorgan and ha.d held it aloft (applause). Mr. Isaac Jones proposed A vote of confidence in Sir Alfred, which was seconded by Mr. W. Evans. Mr. E. T. Owen. Nelson, in supporting, said the Budget did not tax bread, brain nor brawn (laughter and cheere). Mr. T. C. Tho- mas, Bedlinog, the chairman of the East Glam- organ Liberal Association, delivered a stirring address, and after some questions had been put to Sir Alfred and answered, the vote of confi- dence was passed unanimously. PROGRESSIVE DEMONSTRATION. A great Progressive demonstration was held at Porth, on Monday night. An audience of 1,500 assembled a.t Salem Chapel in support of the candidature of Sir Alfred Thomas. There was a united force of leading Liberals and La- bour representatives in the district present, and remarkable enthusiasm was displayed. Aid. Morgan Williams, Porth, presided, and refer- ring to the shilling tax imposed upon coal by the Conservative Government, and repealed by the Liberal Government, asked whether the foreign- er paid that. No, it was the working man, and they had to suffer a reduction in wages in con- I sequence. I Sir Alfred Thomas, who had a great recep- tion, said "that meeting meant sucoess" (hear, I hear). Dealing with the Budget, Sir Alfred de- clared that at almost every point" it benefitted I the working classes. I Dr. Chalke, in moving a vote of confidence in I Sir Alfred, said he had made a. calculation as I to the royalty tax, and found that in the Rhon- dda £7,500 would ho returned by the Govern- ment to relieve the rates, and that was equival- ent to a 3d. rate (applause). The Rev. R. T.Sal- mon, Rev H. M Hughes, M.A., Cardiff, and Mr. Evans (schoolmaster), Treharris, also delivered ¡ rousing speeches, and the vote of confidenoe was unanimously carried amid a scene of tremen- dous enthusiasm. ) ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING AT j PONTLOTTYN. On Monday night, the Zoir Hall, Pontlottyn, I was crowded with an enthusiastic audience in support of the candidature of Sir Alfred Tho- mas. The Rev. J. R. Salmon presided.—Mr. David Bevan proposed Q, vote of confidence in Sir Alfred Thomaib and it was ably seconded by Mr. Evan Morgan.- Speeches in support of the resolution were delivered by Mr. J. W. John, Pontypridd, and the Rev. E. Bush, Port Talbot. Both speakers roused the audience to I the highest pitch of enthusiasm.—Mr. W. R. Beddoe proposed a vote in support of the j Budget.—This was well seconded by Councillor Ben Hughes.—Mr. W. Collins followed with a telling speech IN favour of Home Rule.—The meeting closed with the usual votes of thanks and the singing of "Hen Wlad fy Nhadau."

— SPLENDID MEETING AT YSTRAD MYNACH. SIR ALFRED'S SERVICES TO LIBERALISM. THE WONDERFUL CABINET. ir Alfred Thomas had been billed to speak ) at Moriah Chapel, Ystrad Mvnach, on Monday evening, and a large audience assembled to hear him. Sir Alfred, however, our representa- tive, WAS told, was not well enough to attend. There were many of Sir Alfred Thomas's sup- porters present with platform experienoe, who used their oratorical gifts in support of Sir Alfred's candidature. Mr. Lloyd Jones, of Hengoed, presided, and, in his opening re- marks, said the present Government, was one the like of which had never been seen. They had never had a Government which had held together in the political storms they had passed through eo well. Mr. Balfour had stated there were two minds in the Cabinet. Had they ever known twenty people with only two (applause). If the Government were got rid of, who would they put in the place of many of tbo men who were in it? Who would take the place of Mr. Aaquith, their great Prime Minister? Not ev-on Mr. Gladstone, in his best days, enjoyed greater confidence in the Cabinet. Then, nert, was their wonderful countryman, Lloyd George (applause). WSeTe could they II find a man in the world, let alone the Tory Party, to succeed their countryman? Whe-re. would they find a. War Minister equaj to Mr. ) Haitian<?, or & Foreign SSCRETA-RY equal to Sir I Edward Grey? or a Solicitor-Genera!—(applause I and a voice, "Good old Samuel")—like Samuel ? > The Celtic Cringe was going to become tbe body of THE garment, the cloth itself as well CS the fringe. Then John Burns, who was a pat- J tern of intelligence of the working ciasa of u. 1 Whom would they put into such offices in their place? (A Voice: "Caskeli," laughter.) The I Ch-irman, continuing, said the next Cabinet ¡ would be of dukes and lords ("Booh!"). Oh, Every vote given for Mr. Gaskell was a 1 vote given to the —— (A Voice: "Dear food.") Yes, and less liberty — to make a Russia out of England and for Lord Lansdowne to be the Grand Duke. England would be throwing itself into the hands of this class of I men if they voted Tory, and the people would bo bound hand, body, and soul, and reduced to slavery—not all at ones, they knew, but by degrees. The Rev, Barker James moved a resolution pledging the meeting to use every legitimate I means to secure the triumphant return of Sir Alfred, expressing hearty approval of the Jiud- get, and that the action of the House of Lords was regardtd as a dangerous encroachment on the ancient rights and authority of the House of Commons, and demanding, that the power of 'veto b Mr. James said he did not believe the Lords had rejected the Budget because they loved the people. If they really loved the people, what about the Licens- ing Bill? The Budget was a broad platform for everyone to put his foot upon. HE could understand why th3 landowners and clergy were against it, but could not understand why the working man should be against it. They wanted religious equality in the land, and the eduueation question had yec to be solved this could not be whilst the House of Lords was in the way. Sir Alfred Thomas had proved him- self a sane, sound, and strong man, and they wanted men of his sterling qualities in Parlia- ment (applause). Mr. J. Parrish, in seconding the resolution, said he had been visiting a constituency which was being contested most. bitterly, and where the Liberals were being pelted with stones sim- ply because they dared to stand for what was right and just. He thought the electoral cam- paign had gone on quit; favourably so far; the Liberals had lost seats than they had expected. The last majority was an abnormal one, brought about by abnormal political con- ditions. The dominant feature of this election was a constitutional question. The House of Lords had claimed the right to disenfranchise the nation. It was the Liberals who had given the franchise, and if they sold their birthright, thèy would never again have the opportunity to restore to the House of Commons its ancient prestige. He appealed to them as Christian men and women—for no Christian could afford to be lukewarm in this crisis. It was their bounden duty to support Mr. Asquith. To vote for the other party was to vot-3 for the degrad- ation of the State The Rev J. Tertius Phillips nest addressed the meeting. He firstwamed the electors pre- sent not to write anything on their voting paper beyond putting a cross opposite to Sir Alfred's name. It was, he said, one of the latest tricks of the enemy to persuade voters to write "Votes for women" across their votes. Although Sir Alfred held a knighthood, that title had been conferred on him for real worth (applause). The Lords represented two classes of monopolists—they were land peers and drink peers. Mr. Gaskell was an active advocate of the brewers in the licensing court", and would be active on their behalf in Parliament. By reading the organs of the licensing trade, he found that the men engaged in that trade were influencing the election. He hoped Wales was starting right at Swansea — (applause) -— and whatever England might do, he hoped gallant little Wales would continue true to the Liberal and Progressive Party. The speaker described those who were changing their political action •is backsliders. Lloyd George was regarded as a robber by the peers, but the truth was that he was on the track of the robbers. The Bud- get had been the most searching police inspec- tor the lords had ever MET. The House of Lords was not the venerable House that some would make out. There were only five mem- betre with a 3th century ancestry, eleven of the 14th, eighteen of the 16th, and the remainder were created in the 19th century. He was sorry the Liberal Party had created so many, and hoped they would create no more. He (the speaker) stood for Free Trade, for the right for ma.n to live and work. He was going in for the prohibition of the liquor traffic, but he knew he must first get the House of Lords out of the way. They were trying to keep every- thing in their own pockets, and Tariff Reform in the people's heads. The fools were not in Wales—certainly not in East Glamorgan. If the Tory Party were returned to power, he believed they would copy Lloyd George's Bud- get, for they had often given legislation which they had found left in the pigeon holes by the Liberal Party (applause). Mr. T. C. Thomas, Bedlinog. who addressed the meeting mainly in Welsh, brought a mes- sage from Sir Alfred Thomas reminding them that they were fighting in the best cause ever submitted to the country. The peers were against Lloyd George because they knew hia Budget would kill Tariff Reform, and that the Exchequer would get enough money from royalties, ground rents, and the large brewers of the country to meet all Imrial demands. They would have plenty of Dreadnoughts, and something in the poor man's cupboard. Tariff Reform meant restriction Free Trade was com- mercial liberty. The aim of Tariff Reform was scarcity; that of Free Trade was abun- dance. A tariff was legalised robbery; Free Trade was natural honesty. The Budget open- ed a new dawn, and was a new charter of liberties. Whilst advocating it in various meetings like that, he had felt-the power of the Revival spirit come upon him, and felt as if from the ramparts of the heavenly city tho spirits of such men as Henry Richard, Tom Ellis, Gladstone. Cobden, and Bright were look- ing down on their Liberal meetings in which they were striving to uphold and sustain the traditions of the past (applause). The meeting was subsequently addressed by the Rev. Bayley Roberts, Rev. Harri Edwards, Mr. John Lewis, and others.—The resolution was carried with acclamation.

ABOUNDING LIBERAL FERVOUR. SIR ALFRED THOMAS'S POPULARITY. On. Tuesday night Sir Alfred Thomas address- ed one of the largest and most stirring aud- iences of recent years at Porth, and his tri- umphant progress was still more marked at Ferndale and Blaenllechau. After delivering a fighting speech at Stanleytown, Sir Alfred was met by three hundred torch-bearers from Blaenllechau and headed by the Ferndale Band, he was escorted through Femdale to Blaenllechau. The procession was over a. quar- ter of a. mile long, and enthusiastic scenes were witnessed en route, despite the inclemency of the weather. At Blaenllechau, Sir Alfred was paid a. high tribute, for in nearly every window red candles were alight. The Assem- bly Hall, where the meeting was held, was literally besieged, and all sitting and standing room was oocupied. Councillor John Williams presided, and the two leading local miners' leaders, Councillors Tom George and Daniel Evans, supported him. —Sir Alfred analysed the BudgEt-the benefits which it confers on the working men, its pro- visions for extending OLD age penmons, and the scheme to insure the workmen substantial aid in the event of unemployment and sickness. "1 have carried your flag for twenty-four yeare," declared Sir Alfred. "It has never touched the ground, and it is not going to touch the ground this time either" (loud applause). Mr. John Pullen, a working man, delivered a telling speech in moving a vote of confidence in Sir Alfred, remarking that tba candidate's record in Parliamentary divisions when legis- lation affecting the democracy was at issue, spoke volumes in his favour.—The> resolution was carried unanimously. SIR ALFRED AT ABERCYNON. An enthusiastic meeting to support the can- didature of Sir Alfred Thomas was held at the Ypysyboeth School, on Wednesday evening There was a large attendance, and Mr. Wm. Fenwick presided. In his opening re- marks, the chairman stated that he was pleas- ed to preside that evening were it only to iden- tify himself with the great fight, which was not only an ordinary election, but one of the most momentous crisis that had ever taken place in the county owing to the Lords/ throwing out progressive Bills and especially the Budget. He would like to impress on all to be true to I, their principles and to fight for their rights, and vote accordingly. If they failed now it might be generations before they would have the oppor- tunity again. He much regretted the absence or Sir Alfred, who had been detained at Car- diff, but he would be present at the Abercynon meeting. Mr. Evan Ho we lis then proposed the following resolution "That this meeting hear- tily approves of the candidature of Sir Alfred Thomas for the Eastern Division of Glamor- gan, and hereby pledge itself to support him at the poll. Mr. Wm. Jenkins seconded. Ad- dresses were also given by Mr. Robt., Pritchard, Mr. W. R. Davies (Pontypridd), Rev. J. R. Hughes, Rev. Bush (Port Talbot), Mr. Hy. Da.vies (mining lecturer, Porth), and others. The resolution on being put to the meeting was carried,' there being only a few dissentients. Later on another public meeting was held at the Workmen's HaJl. Abercynon. There was a rery large attendance. Coun. T. W. Jones presided, and gave an excellent address, dealing with the splendid qualities of the can- didate. A resolution expressing confidence in the Government, in favour of the Budget,, and condemnine- the action cf the House of Lords, was proposed by the Rev.

THE STOMACH OF THE CHILD IS THE ORGAN ALL PARENTS SHOULD PROTECT AND KEEP NORMAL. The stomach of a child is the organ above all others upon which the future of a child depends. Bodily development is fast in children, and the nourishment necessary to meet such development is the one essential demanded from a parent. Most mothers and fathers jealously guard a child from the formation of bad habits, yet in this age our children early become the victims of wrong food, over-eating, and irregular meals. It is most appalling to know the effect of stomach troubles among our children, Most children who are nervous, irritable and cross, who dream, sleep restlessly, who tire easily and have no desire for child exercise, generally have stomach trouble and indigestion. | Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are intended to thoroughly digest food and to place the system in shape to obtain all the nourishment it needs from such food. These tablets mix with the juices of the system, enriching them and giving to the body the ingredients necessary to build up the rapidly forming brain and body of the young. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should be given to children after each meal and at bedtime. They are made from pure vegetable and fruit > essences and contain no harmful chemicals whatever. The use of these tablets will give greater vim to a child in its school work or at its play. They will produce appetite and soothe nerves, destroy abnormal cravings and will allay the bad effects of sweets and such improper foods as most children enjoy and will eat. no matter what is done to prevent it. It is due to the child that his stomach be protected by the parent, and if Stuart's i Dyspepsia Tablets are given after meals the, habits of the child will not tear down the stomach and destroy the digestive juices ] nearly so rapidly. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are given to each and every degree of life. Any condition of the stomach welcomes them, from the strongest to the weakest.

but the methods of warfare had changed. In olden days it was a matter of getting into close touch with the enemy, but modern conditions made this impossible, and battleships fought with miles between them. It was, therefore, necessary to have the best and strongest ships' that could be built, equipped with the finest machinery. Mr. Walter Lewis, when presiding at one of Sir Alfred Thomas's meetings, had spoken of Sir Alfred as a friend of the working man. He did not know that Sir Alfred had done anything very special for the working man, but he did know that Sir Alfred had given his vote for distributing over the county the benefits of Lewis's Charity, intended for Geliygaer and other parishes in the Rhymnev Valley. Mr. F. Cabell had an enthusiastic reception on his appearance, the audience singing "For he's a. jolly good fellow." Votes of thanks to the speakers, among whom was Col. H. Mor- gan Lindsay, and the Rector were carried.
