ELECTION ADDRESSES. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE OSWESTRY DIVISION OF THE COUNTY OF SALOP. GENTLEMEN,— THE PEERS HAVE AGAIN FORCED A JL dissolution of the House of Commons, and thrown the Country into the turmoil of a General Election. A year ago, by rejeoting the Budget, they compelled the Government to appeal to the people. The Election was then fought not only on the Budget, but also on the Government's proposals for suppressing the arrogant claim of the Peers to interfere with National Finance, and for curtailing their power to overrule the people's representatives in the House of Commons. The answer of the Electors was clear and emphatic. By the decisive majority of 120, the new House of Commons stood pledged to support the Government's proposals. In fulfilment of the mandate so received from the Electors, Resolutions in favour of the removal of the Veto were passed through the House of Commons by large majorities, but, after a futile attempt, by means of a Conference of the leaders, to induce the Peers to bow to the will of the people so clearly, so unequivocally, expressed, the House of Lords remains obdurate. The Peers, not content with refusing to carry out the Verdict of the Country given in January last, now propose to substitute for their present House a new Second Chamber, in which they will continue to have a large and permanent Tory majority. In this manner they hope to retain in the future, as in the past, the righc to reject all Liberal measures which are distasteful to them. Not content with this, they propose further to curtail the prerogative of the Crown to create additional members of the Second Chamber, which at present affords the only means of com- pelling them to submit to the will of the people. Thus the proposed new House of Lords is to be as strongly marked a Conservative body as ever, and to be entrenched in a position unassailable either by the Crown or the People. It is to be' made to look more reputable and less unrepre- sentative, so that satire may have less obvious play on it. It is to be relieved of the odium of appearing to autocratically overrule the House of Commons, but, in fact, is to have greater power than ever to thwart and stultify the work of the people's representatives. It is a characteristic Tory Scheme for revolu- tionising the British Constitution by making the power of the House of Lords supreme—independ- ent alike of King and People. The Electors will know how to treat such a threat to farther curtail their right to rule them- selves, and how to resent such an insult to their intelligence. In the momentous struggle in which we are thus engaged to secure our independence and to place the right of self-government on a sound Hsis, I appeal to you as a Candidate for your Suffrage?. I venture, with confidence, to express a hope that your voice, as the voice of the rest of the United Kingdom, will be raised in support of the people's just claim to make their own laws. Should you honour me by returning me as your Member, I shall loyally support the Liberal Government in carrying its Veto proposals into law, and in resisting the sinister proposals of the Peers. When the Veto has been removed, then—and not until then-it will be possible to proceed with those great Measures of Social Progress and Political Reform to which the Liberal Party is pledged, and which will receive my warm support. I am in agreement with the policy of the National Farmers' Unioi, and, as the representa- tive of an Agricultural Constituency, it would ever be my care to see to the interests of those engaged in farming pursuits. Your obedient Servant, EDWARD POWELL. Oswestry, 30th November, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF RADNOR. GICNTLEMUN,- THE CONFERENCE BETWEEN THE Leaders of the Liberal and Tory parties having failed to make any arrangement for abolishing the unrestricted Veto of the House of Lords, it becomes necessary to appeal to the country. The House of Commons and the House of Lords are in a serious conflict. I venture to express the hope that the Electors of the County of Radnor will, in the words of the late Mr Gladstone, take frankly, fully and finally the side of the House of Commons." a The present position of the House of Lords is indefensible. That is admitted even by the Lords themselves, for they have recently been making haste to condemn their own Constitution. They have passed certain resolutions which they call Reforms, but which are in reality only shams. These resolutions leave untouched the Tory majority in the House of Lords, together with its unrestricted Veto. In the exercise of that Veto the Lords have mutilated and destroyed many important Liberal measures. The Lord Chancellor has reminded ua that for over 100 years the House of Lords has never thrown out a single Bill introduced by a Tory Government, while in the hpr, four years it has rejected four great measures of a Liberal Government. The House of Lords is, in fact, merely a branch of the Tory party. This state of things has become intolerable and cannot continue. The Government appeals from the tyranny of the Tory Lords to the sense of justice of the people. I am in favour of a Second Chamber but one which will act impartially and will be equally fair to both great parties of the State. I agree with Lord Rosebery that measures should be taken so that the Liberal party when in office should not be placed at an unfair disadvantage compared with the Tory party. That is the plain and simple issue before the country. My views on the general political questions of the day having been fully stated at the recent Election are well known to you and need not here be repeated. If you do me the honour to return me again to Parliament as your Member it will be my constant and earnest endeavour to serve the interests of the County to the best of my ability. I remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, FRANCIS EDWARDS. The Cottage, Knighton, 28th November, 1910. 512 PUBLIC NOTICES. PARISH OF BETTWS.
