I THE FUTURE.--

I THE FUTURE. I TO THK EDITOR. Sir,— Ihe correspondence has drifted to- wards Socialism, the advocates of which are urgent in pii1.suing their nostrums en you/ readers. Wind, wind, nothing but wind. The old childish confidence trick. "Open your inouih a.nd shut your eyes and find whot J will j give you." Take our specific, and all ills in | tho body politic will be immedia.tvly cured and the millennium will forthwith appear. j Yocr eorcspondent.3 would do something to i ) '-e pu1 pese, if they oould name a single coani- try, people, or larg-e community in which their Sv cudism. has been tiied and succeeded There j, on • instance in which community of g<code W¡! tried. We read that the early Chrisi ia.ne af Jet-,i,itietii had al! things in common. The iv->a!t appeal s to have been famine, and tJ¡. I capit"> ii< Christians in other parts had to send money to relieve the diet.roas. Whether Socialism contemplates community of gicxxls or not I do not know. If vour oorre-p-o;ide.n;>- will permit I would looomnieitd to them the 1.¡¡¡ly of the oid command, "Love thy neighbour as thyself." The capitalist is just as much tiieir neighbour as the workiiigmaii. A cause will not be advanced by ignoring the ninth and tenth commandments. Every man v.otrt hy of the name it. anxious to 'increase the well'being of all in our country. Socialists l-aV' no monopoly heze, but the sympathies oi mcivt people a. e not limited to one class oi the community. Mr. J. Watson says that £ 14,000.000 has been lately spent in erecting ootton miIJ". How many thousands of working men and women have thesz1 mills given employment to? And where would these mills and employment have been but for the capitalists who provided the münay? Nay, where would the cotton in- dustry have been without capital? Where the coal, iron and steel, shipbuilding industries, even farming, w-ith-out the people who found the capital? Without capital expended there can be no employment of la-bour. I suppose the bag and baggage policy of Mr. J. Howarth would include the capitalist's capital, in which case the people remaining here would, it is presumed, be left to live by taking in each ether's washing! Your oo.respondent's recommendation of a threepenny manual puts me in mind of the old story of the sermon writer who was asked to write ona for 10e. 6d. He said he would try to put together something for 15s., but wi-ai he could write for 10s. 6d. would not be worth iistening to! By the way, your correspondent is not happy in his allusion to Belfast. But for the great capitalists, Belfast would not have claimed his attention, sinco it would have been but. a small country town, of st-aid respectability, po?«ibly equalling that of Chester, and neither work nor wages would have stirred its tran- quility. The Socialist remedy at Belfast ap- pears to have been broken bottles!—Your obedient servant, AN OLD STAGER. 19t.h August, 1907. TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—Some interesting points have been brought out in the correspondence under hood, and without wishing to beak into the line of argument aft quoted by "Old Stitger" en the one g:de, and Mr. J. Watson on the other, it may seean to a oasual observer that the latter rather damaged his own ca-tilel in one way in his letter which appeared in the I "Observer" of the 17th, by admitting that England was a fa.r safer place for the invent nent of capital than places on the Continent, because of the fact, if I read him aright, that Soe alism is less to the f<).m, over here. How are we to take this, seeing that he is stich a. staunch Socialist., and would like to see his pet theories made realistic? Again, ho complains of the fact that mini bere emigrate from these islands annually, and I would ask him if this is not duo to the fact tha.t we hit-herto, in our mistaken notion- as to philanthrophy, have received with open arms men from all partis of the world, who have by sheer merit and perseverance ousted from their form-er places many men whJ ottherwi would still be in England, as much as it is dire to the tyrrany vf capital? I notice one thing, that the foreigner, when onco ho gets ovor- here, docs not like to return to native larid in spite of the fact thai Socialism thrives abroad and in the aim and object, according to Mr. Watson, of eve y right imnd'ad workingnian, so how is it that their lot is comfortable and we oUoly rarely hoar them complaining? Does not it. prove to some pxtMit th?t th? Socialism of tti-??ir owrtio is not of such a neighbourly kind as to make them long to return to "Home, sweet home,' but rather tyrra.nises over thelll in such a way as to make them anxiousi to leave the environ- ments of their youth behind them I suppose that Russia, and Spain are perhaps the centres of Socialism, and if it produces the same state of things in the courso of time in 2.11 other countries then may it be long before it arrives here. There is a kind of "Socialism" which i- allowahle, and which prompts one man te "land anotlier a drink, and be friendly end kind <h:?airted. and genia.1 to all. This is typical of John Bull, but when it comes to telling a man that because his ancestors have left him with £ 10,000 a year, say, he has no right to it, he not having worked for it, then the lights of the subject are- in need cf protection, or we shall hea.r next that, no main has a righi to have brains superior to his neighbours un- less he gives to them the full bene lite of any- thing he may chance to invent by way of en tern rise.— Yours very truly.

—————?————— I INOE TARIFF R;FORM MEETING. I TO THE EDITOB. Sij,-M)-. Wellinirton, in his letter of last week, eneeringly passed over my challenge to m(xt him publicly and thresh out the subject matter between us. Ho proceeded to give me some gratuitous advice. When I icqtijrc- ad- vice upon any subject I usually consult compe- tent authorities. However, a public mooting has taken place at ItWt on Monday last, 17th inst., which I at- t.saidod, a.nd repeated the actual statements and argument of the previous occasion. Mr. Wel- lington. although present at the meeting, abso- lutely declined any discussion in debate. Com- ment is needless.—Thanking you in anticipa- tion. I am, sir, yours faithfully, I GEO.

I A PROMISING YOUNG RUNNER. I TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—With longing have I waited to read in your paper an aooount. of the race between young Mr. Piatt- and H. Giundy (ex Ever ton footballer). I am sure all who saw the race will agree with mo that it is quite worthy of note. It was Grundy's wish to make a match, but Mr. Piatt upheld his principle. It was then arranged with the Shotton spoits handieapper that ;hey 1 should run level in the 220 yards flat. The start was unusually btd for Mr. Platt, and at 100 yards the professional footballer was yards alirad, but the plucky amateur, never beaten until the tape is reached, coming a'ong like a deer, won a magnificent race by 1$yasds off 14 yards in 22 2-5th seconds. The race was clockcd by Mr. G. Haddock, of Bolton, so it can bo relied upon. I am inclined to think no on" but Mr. Piatt himself knows what lie really can do, for he won the 220 yard;* at Wrexham only the week before by inches in 24 seconds off 12 yards. I don't wish to run Giundy down. He is undoubtedly a good run- ner, but nevertheless, where Mr. Piatt is con- corned. Grundy must stand in the background. At. Sutton another race of the sarne style 1 «tme off 0:1 Saturday, with W. Hinde, of Elles- meie Port. Mr. Hincks wisaly gave up at a hund ed yaids, he then being several yardfe be- hind. At the same meeting Mr. Piatt tied for second place in the 230 yards with J. L. Brook. Saltney; won the quarter-mile; and took 2nd p:izo in the 500 yards hurdle His trainer, Tom Hare, is naturally proud of him. and wit.h c-a.:du} training he has great promise for being one of the fust runners in the coun- try, bo ic-irig only 19 yea is it may also be worth note that, he came only 5 yards behind F. V. Swift (Wig-an S.C. and English i!1fkr- nationa!) in the 500 ytwds swimming champion- ship of Win A'I. 1906. He has wisely given 8wimr.Üng up this year.- -Y ours respectfully, I OLD NESTONIAN.

I y. I I ENCOURAGING ROMANISM. I I TO THE FBDITOR. [ Sir,—Mr. Cattley, in ycii-rc; of Saturday laist, h«s not answered the question of Cestrian as to when and whc,e any distinguished Roman Catliol c was ever known to lay the foundation- stone, etc of any building- for Protestant odu- catiosn. I tear the only reply is that, of Dr. Aehili, late Prior of the Dominican order, in his lxx>k on the inquisition, page 271, "How willing are the English to pay at our f'E;Biva]6; und Rome wants nothing eloo, dL'6:æ no: t.hj;r¡g- else, but money." Criesjengcr on the Jesuits u&e# even stronger language. During my five in South America (River Plate) the image of the Virgin Mary was car vied through the streets, and people went on their knees to ir. Bonaventura, a canonized taint, tr an skit eel the Psalms, leaving out "Lord" and substituting "Mary", Psalm 31, "In thee, 0 Lady, have I trusted" (Psalm 68) "Let Mary ariaa, and let her ene- mies be 150) "Let every- thing that hath breath praise our Lady"; for proof see the worship of the Virgin Mary (by J. Endofll Tyler), also in the "Glories oi Mary," by another eo-ioalled saint, Mary m placed before our Savioutr. A thousand pounds reward has been offered to any Roman Oat.ho!ic who shall produce a text to prove that the Virgin Mary ca.n save us. 1 recommend Mr. Cattley to read above btoks, also questions and aaswers on 100 texts by tb2- Irish Church Missions, 11, Buckin-g- h am-street, London, W.C The picture in tho "Graphic" of the 15th tilt. shews a nitlii on his stomach as if repeating his Rosary, ajid ''grovelling" is a correct term for such a pcsi ti-on. It appeals after all that this ma«rble figure was originally Agrippina and her son Xero, for proof see "English Ohurchmem" of July 18 last. Christ said, "Come im-to itie," Rome says "Go to Mary." I think Bis,hop Jay no miserably failed in his duty by not tacking "Hymins, Ancient and Modem," as thev contain many unse. ipturid dogmais.. Youns truly, ROBERT FOULKES. Dec Banks, Aug. 19, 1907. TO THE KDITOB. I Sir, Your correspondent, Ohas. Edw. Qa.tt- hy, avold-s replying to my queries or to give instances of Roman Catholic assistance to insti- tutions or schools ha.ving for intention the education and fui-tl-t.cinncor of the Protestant religion. Thus, in a sense, his so-callcd reply is no reply at all. Hence I presume slIoll eva- sion may or may not be considered good taste. All the same, it is the instances desimxl) that are not. forthcoming as against the mistaken assistance and countenance given by professi ng Protectants in the stippoit. and encouragement of Roman Catholicism. And as for the lato Dean ITowson's known dislike and objection. With respect to the book "Hymns Ancdeufc and Modern,' ilr. Cattley wi!l find plenty of food for coneideratrion as to doctrine repugnant to Protestant people by a perusal of your columns for July, 27th. The1 Loid Bishop is to be commended for drawing attention to the encroachment of i Mariolatry in hymnals, while further, on 8th June, 1902, Dr. Jayne warns stiil again his hearers as to th" unchangeable, aggressive at- titude of Roman Catholicism in this country. Mr. Cattley should quote "The Rosary of the Blessed Virgin" as to Mariolatry, a work published by Burns and Oates, in which it is stated that "Mary is our advocate in Heaven,! Mary is our mother and mediatrix in Heaven." Tli<\ engraving referred to in my previous iotter fiom tihe "Graphic" shews a devotee in the Roman Church lying full-length on the floor before the imago there, set up of the Vir- gin Maty. Henü if such an act- be not one of positive grovelling, then oven Mr. Oattlev, with his dictionary, can say what otherwise suoh can be. Mr. Cattley would apparently favour Tr&imibstantiation, but it will require :), tlie eloquenco he is capable of to convince your readers that either his own body or that of any other person ca.n be present in two I places at one and tho same time. It is absurd, and w? have to thank our Monarchs at their Coionation, who in the must, solemn manner protest against any such doctrine. There are other denominations in this ooun- try who have feelings as to sacred matters, equally with Roman Catholics, but why tihe hutt-cr—aeco'ding to Mr. Cattley—ate to be specially preferred, and exclusively so. is too one sided and will always be so legarded in Protestant England. This is not a matter of individuals or calling for personalities, but rather of leligious principle in its universal application, and one to which tho country will eooner or later have to face with more serious- and less indifferenoe than it has Hitherto done. Frse Catholicity never was the spirit of I Roman ism I Romanism OESTRIAN. Aug. 19, 1907. -&
T' FRODSHAM BUILDING BYE-LAWS.

T FRODSHAM BUILDING BYE-LAWS. TO THE EDITOB. Sir.AlIow 1110 to draw your at-tetition to the very vexed way in which tho building bye-laws have been t.reated in the Lordship and Town- ship of Frodsham. Th9 bye-laws in IDaJny cases are misconstrued by mem bers of the Parochial Commitiee-3, and in many o: her instances conn eiliors raise unreasonable questions to suit their own whims, which ultimately cause the plans !o b3 rejected without grounds, the conse-1 quenee being that persons intending to build legitimately arc put. to considerable annoyance. Giving credit where credit is due, I must say that there are members of the Parish Council. wito cons-tituto the Parochial Committee, who are well worthy of their positions, who thoroughly understand the different clauses of the bye laws, and who ev< n have them on their finger ends. I may mention one of these, who is appreciated by the majority of the ratepayers. This fact was voiced in tho township by his being elected at the top of the poll in the last election, viz., Mr. C. E. Linakor, sc-nr., who was subsequently nud e chairman. There axe other members who either do not or will not understand the bye-Jaws. There are others who have stated that. they are practically no use on the Parochial Committee of the Lord- ship as soitB of their co-members -will have their own way. Surely it is time that members are elected who will do their duty conscien- tiously and without fear or favour. Coming to a in point. I have to remind the Parochial Committee of the Lordship of p'ans of houses; submitted to them in April last which were unduly rejected, although the Sur- veyor recommended their approval. However, through a suggestion of some members, the plains we;e refer red back, that is, rejected, tihe only explanation given being that the owner should make, a new street when building-. The intended site is opposite tha schools at Over- ton. There is a road in front 21ft. wide. The intended houses are proposed to be seit back another dozen feet. Any person, under clause 61 of the bye-laws, may erect a new domestic building, provided that it is 24ft. from tho line of tho intended building to the boundary of premises immediately opposite. In the iden- tical case the distance is much greater. The fact that there are bye-laws in force in connec- tion with new streets does not compel any per- son to constr uct a new street. But any person who shall make a new street must make such street according to the bye-laws. Clause III., page 12, of the bye-laws states: "Every person who shall lay out a new street shall layout sitch street at such levol," etc. Clause IV. isi ates: "Every person who shall layout a new street, which sfhail be intended to be used as a carriage road shall so lay out such street that the width thereof shall be 36ft. a.t the least." But the bye-laws do not say that every per- son who shall erect a new domestic building- must make a street. VVnen any person desires to build a new domestic building, he may do so without making a street, provided the in- tended building complies with olaitse 61 of the bye-laws, and, of course, provided that all other structural arrangements ar- in order. The clause states "Every person who shall erect a new domestic building shall provide in front of suoh building an open space, which shall be free from any erection thereon, above the level of the ground, except any portioo. stop or other like projection. and which, moa-stirod to the boundary of any land or piemiscs immediately opposite or to the oppo- site of any street which building may front, shall throughout the line of frontage of such building extend to a distance of 24ft." The contention, therefore, is that any person who intends to buikl submits pans which prov? to be 24ft. from the opposite side of the- rood in any part of the district, of Frodsham, is en- titled to have the plans approved, and I hold that the Paioohial Committee of the Lordship of Frodsham were wrong in rejecting the plans submitted to them in April last.Yours, etc.. JUSTICE N.B.—I may add that the publication of the following section (in force in the Township of Frodsham) may prove valuable information to those who are not acquainted with the bye- laws. Section 155 of the Public Health Act, 1875: "The urban authority shall pay or tender compensation to the owner of a house or build- ing for loss or damage he may sustain in conse quenee of his house or building being set. back or forward for the purposes of enlarging or otherwise improving any street."

PRAISE FOR THE PEERS. I

PRAISE FOR THE PEERS. BY LORD STANLEY OF ALDERLEY. The "Macclesfield Courier and Herald" reports a epeeoh delivered by Lmd Stanley of Alderley in Alderiey Park. Referring to the Hcufe of Lords, Lord Stan icy said he belonged to a house which was much aout;kxi- -(Iaughler)--at,,l he was not going to say a word in extenuation of a.ny abuse they might like to direct against it, but there was one thing he would say in favour of that House. If any member of the House of Commons, or any politician coming up from the country, listened to the debates in that House ho would be struck with the great directness, promptitude and efficiency with which the bum- news was derspatclied. Some people accused the House of Lords last year of debating the Educa- tion Bill at too great, a length. He attended right through those debates, and his impression was that they did not debate the Bill at any- thing like the length of time occupied in the House of Commons. The House of Lords some- times got. a little in confusion about matters of order because they had no person there to keep order. They were, indeed, supposed to be so orderly that order kept itself. (Laughter.) The other night they passed through the Criminal Appeal Bill. There were one or two alterations made which the Government did not like, but he thought anyone who attended that debate would say it was limited to people who were entitled to speak—such as eminent judges and people who knew the law--a,ii(i that the points were put promptly and seized promptly. While he did not wish to set up the House of Lords as an example as to the spirit in which it ap- proached legislation, he d:d think that, members of the House of Commons who wasted so much time might with advantage be ordered to spend some of their spare time sitting in the gallery and seeing the way in whioh Bills were discussed and the different clauses got through..
