BAULKED AGAIN 1
BAULKED AGAIN 1 THE Cardiganshire Police Committee has once more appointed a new Chief Con- stable, and that without flinching in the least degree from its best traditions, Jn spite of the intrigues of the members of the Quarter Sessions with the Home Office, the representatives of the County Council have resolutely adhered to the principle of recognising merit by promoting from the ranks. Throughout the fight the members of both parties have been remarkably loyal to one another. The blind passive obedience to class and party prejudice displayed by the members of the Quarter Sessions—so well and aptly parodied by Dr. JENKYN LEWIS—shows that much vigour is yet left to the most effete type of Conservatism, and that the friends of freedom and progress cannot afford to rest on their oars. On the other hann, one of the most gratifying features in the whole fight was the splendid golidarity of the members of the County Council. This argues well for the future, fer ther e are many other battles yet to be fought and won. The firm attitude of the representatives of the people has deservedly won them general admiration, and that far beyond the borders of their own county. Confident, no doubt, that the Hou: SECRETARY would never yield to the repeated requests of the Police Committee, the members of the Quarter Sessions had high hopes that if they could not carry their man now they could at any rate stave off a certain victory for their opponents. The game was to dribble on towards March, and then have a good sharp, shot goal. For the present they felt they need not be very attentive to their duties nor exert them- selves overmuch; for they knew full well they could rely to the utmost upon their excellent full-back—The HOME SECRETARY. There need be no wojider that certain members of the Quarter Sessions essayed to find fault with the letter the CLERK bad sent to the Home Office. We do not think anybody could submit the Committee's reasons for appointing Sergeant RICHARD JeNES so clearly and coherently as Mr. FRYER did. The letter is reprinted at length in our report of the proceedings in another p&rt of this issue. Let all our readers who have followed this question from the first read it for themselves; and we think that every fair-minded man will come to the conclusion that it is, not only an accurate statement of facts, but that its logic is so linked and strong that it could not fail to appeal to the most pusillanimous member of the Quarter Sessions. It would not be uncharitable to surmise that those who took exception to Mr. FRYER'S letter are men of such a delicate sense of honour that the little quibblng they indulged in was but an expression of their qualms of con- science.
ANOTHER TRIUMPH.
ANOTHER TRIUMPH. FOLLOWING so closely upon the victory in Mid-Devon, the result of the election in Norwich on Friday is most significant; for it is an unmistakeable triumph for Free Trade. Like Mid-Devon, Norwich is large- ly interested in agriculture—in fact it is the centre of the largest wheat-growing area in the Kingdom. Yet it is here that Free Trade has scored its most notable victory. The Protectionists have been utterly routed. There were three candidates, a Liberal Free Trader, a Tory Protectionist, and a Labour. The first polled 8,576 votes; the second 6,756; and the third 2,444,—a majority of 1,820 for the Liberal over the Tory. But if we take the Liberal and Labour vote together, which may equally be classed as Free Trade, we have a grand total of 11,016 Free Trade votes, or a majority of 4,260 over the Protectionist. This is a crushing blow; the worst that Mr. CHAMBERLAIN has had fcince the opening of his ridiculous campaign. If CHAMBERLAIN can turn his coat as often and as easily as he likes, it is at last becoming pretty clear that he cannot turn the people as often and as easily as he likes. It is anticipated that Mr CHAIIBER- LAIN s next move, will be to try and capture the Irish votes by promising them Home Rule. Mr T. W. RUSSELL points out in a contemporary, if the Irish party held the balance of power in the next Parliament, it would be rash, lemembering Mr CHAMBER- LAINS political history, to assert that he would refuse to oomw to with them' W wy, as Mr LVUSSKLL '• should not Mr UiUMBKRLAiH- change iiifc mind upon this as he has changed i' dll(It every other (■ue&tion ?" The cnar.ge won hi not be nearlv "•o great as tLt. t v. in. i: astonis-htci the world ou the question < f F; oe T\ade, for Mr OJUAUBLKI.AIW, Ui, Lu a 1., :t period, was a fierce opponent of Protection, while he hasT wobbled considerably on Home Rule. Liber- al Unionists, therefore, who are anxious to prevent a seperate Irish Legislature have every reason to distrust Mr CHAMBERLAIN.
NOTES AND COMMENTS. .
NOTES AND COMMENTS. A serious dam disaster took place at Bloemfontein on Saturday. From 20 to 30 lives were lost, hundreds are rendered home- less, and many buildings, including restau- rants and hotels wrecked. _11- A case of much interest to Tivyside far- mers was heard at Cardigan on Monday, when the lessee of the tolls charged far- mers from New Quay and Cardigan with selling poultry other than at the Market Place The cases were dismissed. -{{- Mr Henry Bonsall created a little scene at a meeting of the North Cardiganshire Main Committee on Monday. Why should Mr. Harry Bonsall work himself into such an excitement over motor cars? This is a question the public should ask itself. -/1- At a meeting of the Aberystwyth Rural District Council on Monday Mr. D. Daviee, Cennant was appointed road surveyor for the Lower Geneu'r Glyn district. Mr. Dav- ies will now have an opportunity to carry out some very necessary improvements in the roads under his supervision. ———— The death took place at Aberystwyth on Tuesday of the Rev D R. Williams, Calvin- istic Methodist MiiTTster. He was a native of Aberayron and, before coming to Aber- ystwyth about five years ago, had been a pastor at Lampeter for fourteen years. He was acknowledged by all who knew him to be a very sincere man. -I¡- Truth, it has been said ,is stranger than fiction. What novelist could give us an autobiography equal to that of Mr Cham- berlain on Himself in the Daily News" for Monday ? Everybody should buy, beg or borrow a copy of that most interesting and entertaining number. -11- So far as has transpired, the Russian re- ply to the last Japanese Note has not yet been received at Tokio, and there seems to be little hope there that it will b of such a character as to satisfy Japanese require- ments. All the important newspapers at Tokio discredit the current peace rumours. -({- During the hearing of a perjury case at the Assizes at Lampeter on Tuesday. Mr. Justice Walton, in summing up, remarked: It is said—I do not say it myself—that in. this part of the kingdom, Wales, the offence of perjury is an unusually common one. don.) (Applause). I do not say this in order to gain any approval here. I say it because I know it to be true. -11- While recognising, says a writer in To- Day," in an attack on the luxury of jthe age, the dangers of that moral apathy which looks to legislation for reform rather than to individual effort, it would not be so pre- posterous, as at first sight it seemed, to to consider the advisability of resurrecting those old Sumptuary Laws which were pas- sed on various occasions from the reign of Edward III. to the era of the Restoration. After all, half-a-century has not elapsed since they were erased from the Statute Book, and in many features of our present social condition abundant justification could be found for their reconstitution. Indeed, the causes that gave rise to their existence in the fourtenth century are almost identical with those that prevail in the twentieth. Then, as now, capital was triumphant. The foolish, futile chivalry, that broke itself un- wittingly for ever on the fields of Crecy and Poitiers, accomplished its decease at the di- rection of the wealthy English merchants, whose trade and capital were enhanced by the French war. So powerful and wealthy did they become, that they were enabled to enslave England by the Statute of Labour- ers, and their gross luxury called for special legislation. Money was spent in wasteful profusion, pageantry and prodigious display draped the social sores of the State. Desti- tution was rampant in the country; the uneven distribution of wealth fixed a seem- ingly unbridgable gulf between the upper and the lower classes. The history of to- day presents an almost identical picture. There is the same wide contrast between the rich and the poor; the same terrible condi- tions of pauperism increasing every year; the same hankering after pageantry and sen- sational display; the same wasteful pro- fusion the same restlessness for foreign adventures; the same bastard nationalism, that cannot comprehend England great with- out war.
Wales Under Protection.
Wales Under Protection. TESTIMONY OF A "TIMES" COM- MISSIONER. Mr. Llewelyn Williams's graphic picture of "Wales under Protection" was no imag- inative picture. If anyone doubts the ac- curacy he may find evidence of a convincing kind furnished by Conservative writers of the period. In consequence of the disturb- ances in Wales in the eady forties, the limes sent a commissioner to Wales, and this is what he says about the condition of the Welsh farmer of that day.—"The main cause of the disturbances is beyond question the abject poverty of the people. The small raimer breakfasts on oatmeal and water boiled, called duffrey or flummery or on 1t. few mashed potatoes left from the pre- vious night's supper. He dines on potatoes and buttermilk, with sometimes a little white Welsh cheese and barley bread, and, as an occasional tieat, has a salt herring. Fresh meat is nevci seen on the farmer's table. He sups on mashed potatoes. His butter he never tastes he sells it to pay his rent. The pigs he feeds arc sold to pay his rent. As for beef or mutton they are quite out of the question they never form the farmer's, food." i u he llmes description of the Welsh S 'ot 1844 is equally instructive, ne condition of the labourers, from in- it,y in the farmers to give them constant mp o\ nior;t ih deplorable.
