WI-IAT HAVE THE TORIES DOXE…
WI-IAT HAVE THE TORIES DOXE FOR THE PEOPLE! [BY ARTHUP. J. WILLIAMS. M.P.] I.—WHAT HAS LORD SALISBURY DONE IXTROSUCTIOX. Now that most working men have votes. or can. have votes if they lik*. they are told by the Tories that they have always been doing- all they could for tho working man. There is no doubt that this kind of talk has taken in a great many. But what are the real facts In this and other papers I shall try to put tha real fact?, and only the real fact.?, before tha people who read these articles. Let us take the last forty years. LORD SALISBURY. Lord Salisbury is the present Tory Prune Min- ister—the head of the Tory Government. He came into Parliament; in 1353—nearly forty years ago—as member for Stamford. He was member for that borough from 1333 to 1833. when his father died and he became Marquess ot Sali.s- bury.* Of course, the Tory party would not follow Lord Salisbury as their leader if they did not think was a good sound Tory. and had been fighting the Conservative battle all his life. Whar, then, has the good sound Tory being doing for the people during all these years Before lie became a irit-umer of Parliament it was well known that he was very clever. OXFORD r:-TIYE3.3ITY. His first speech. 7th April. 1353. was on a Bill called the Oxford University Bill. The Universi- ties of Oxford and Cambridge were founded many hundreds of roars ago. Rich men left great estates in order th^t they should be open to the clever sons of all tho people, 1110re especially of poor people, so th.»s all learning might be within the. reach of those who really deserved it. however humble their lot might be. The sons of the poor, however, did not benefit much by these generous gifts, which were mainly intended for their good. The few poor scholars who managed to get admis- sion there were looked down upon by the rich young men who filled all its colleges. But far worse than this, at the time when Lord Salisbury made his first or maiden speech in Parliament, the sons of Dissenters of nearly one-half of tha people of this country were net allowed to go either to Oxford or Cambridge at ail Before anyone was admitted he was obliged to say that he belonged to the Church of England, and that he accepted the 39 Articles of that Church which are supposed to contain a correct statement of the religious belief of the Church. Of course, no truthful Dissenters COll1d <.10 this. Thus tho son of every Dissenter, however clever ho might be. was shrt out of both great Universities, which by this time owned pro- perty worth hundreds of thousands a year, pro- perty left for the good of all the clever boys in the kingdom. They were thus shut out from the chance of winning any of the many great prizes which were to be gained every year at these Universities. Now the Liberal party has always said that every one should have equal rights, and an equal chance in life. It has done its best to get rid of this shameful injustice. The Bill about which Lord Salisbury made his first speech was a first step towards doing this. It was brought in by Lord John Russell, whose memory should always be respected by working-men. We Radicals of to-day have taken many steps ahead of Lord John Russell. But though he was tha son of a great Duke though he belonged to the aristocracy, which had for so long kept to itself so many good things under the name of rights and privileges, he was for his day a thorough Liberal. He spent his life in sweeping away these unfair rights and privi- leges. and did all he could to give equal rights to ill. When he brought in this Bill he said that. for is part, he thought Dissenters should be allowed :o send their sons to Oxford and Cambridge. But ae only asked in this Bill, as a beginning, that some of the worst abuses in the management of his great National property should be got rid of. t was. indeed, a poor little Bill. A great Dis- senter—a great champion of the people and of justice—a great speaker one of the greatest that ever sat in the House of Commons—John Bright— scornfully described it as "a tinkering amend- ment of ariinstitution from which he.a.sasDissenter, was excluded." But what did the young noble- man who is now the Tory Prime Minister of England—what did he Say about itThe moment he opened his lips, it was plain that he was a very able speaker. But it was also plain that he did not like Dissenters, and that he would show his dislike in the most arrogant, overbearing and spiteful way. As Mr. Justin McCarthy well says.t He had a positive genius for saying bitter things in the bitterest tone. He seemed to take a positive delight in being gratuitously offensive. lie protested against the notion that any change should be made at all, and he finished his speech in the following words :—He feared that if this Bill were to pass into law it would ultimately lead to the accomplishment of the views of those who were anxious to separate the Universities from the Church." The Liberal party have always said that neither the Church of England nor any other religious body have any right to keep these great national properties for itself that they should be open to ail, free from all religious tests. However, this speech of this young lord, like many of his speeches afterwards, seemed to have quite tha opposite effect from what it was intended to. It entirely failed to convince those who heard it that the Church of England had any right to keep Oxford and Cambridge all to itself. Their eves seemed to have been suddenly opened. They saw that the Bill was a tinkering Bill did not go ha.lf far enough. They turned it; into a Bill which let every one in at Oxford without subscrib- ing to the 39 Articles of the Church of England.§ At these Universities, after a young man has been taught for a certain time, he can go up for an examination. If he passes this examination he takes what is called a degree, a kind of certificate, then ho has properly learned what has been taught. This degree is of some value as it shows that the mm who has it is an educated man. It is not difficult to pass this examination, and to get this degree, which is called a pass degree. For this reason it is rather against a man if he goes away from the University without taking his degree. But until 13o3 no student at Oxford or Cambridge —however learned he might be—could get this degree unless he declared that he was a member of the Church of England. This injustice to Dissenters kept them out of their undoubted right unless they were mean enough to go back upon their principles, and this injustice was also swept away by the House of Commons amidst great cheering and by a large majority. CHURCH SCHOOLS. Two years later, 1855. Sir John Pakington. one of Lord Salisbury's own party, brought in a little Bill. For many years the Church of England had been hard at wurk opening schools all over the kingdom. These schools were Church schools. Every child who went to them was obliged to be taught the religion of the Church of England. This was very hard upon the Dissenters, because they had no other schools to which they could send their children unless they lived in large towns. What made it still harder was that a great part of the money with which these schools were built and carried on was actually public money—the money of the people, paid out of the taxes. Yet those schools were entirely managed by ie Church of England, which was not ashamed to call them National Schools. The teachers and pupil-tc-ichers in these schools must belong to the Church of England. They must be servants of the clergyman, play the organ, train the choir. In most parts of Wales, and in the country districts of England, most of the people are Dissenters.* They are obliged by law to send their children to these Church Schools. |j The Liberal party had long complained of this shameful injustice. They said that a law should be passed by which every town and village throughout the land should have schools but that no religious body should be allowed to meddle with them. They said that these schools should be managed by the people themselves; and some even in 1885 said they should be open without charge, so that the poorest child should be given his only chance—which was to be taught.! This was not all what the Tories wanted. They felt sure that if this plan of having real and not sham "National" schools was ever carried out, these Church schools with all the power which they gave them must sooner or later be shut up. Sir* John Pakington, a good Tory, thought he would give the Dissenters a sop and stop the cry for National Education with his little Bill. It gave the Dissenter who sent his child to a Church school what was called a conscience clause." It pave him the right to say that the child was not to 1 e taught the Church of England religion. In opposing this Bill Lord Salisbury did not mince his words. "The result of such a system of teaching." he said would be to make England a nation of infidels." In 1870 the Liberals at last succeeded in getting a national system of schools which has been already one of the greatest blessings given to the people.—(To <:■O'ithli lie was born in 1833, and was the second son. Until 18S5 he was known as Lord Robert Cecil. In that year his elder brother, who was in.becile, died, and he became heir to the title under the courtesy title of Lord Cranborne. t History of Our Own Times." + Amen Iments moved by Mr. James Haywood, ;1 thorough Liberal, and determined champion of civil and religion* liberty. cj This was carried by a majority of i54, 233 for 79 against v-i-eacf (if Dr. Crosskoy before the Education Commission. Q.Q. 41,095, 41,965 for gross eases of hardship to Dissenters. In England and Vv ales there were, according to the Report or the Education De- partment for 1885-86, 14,608 schools, with accommoda- tioa for 3,420.616 scholars, which were entirely under the control of private managers. These schools re- ecive £ 1,772.212 per annum of the public money. There were only 4.355 schools, with accommodation for 1,340.837 scholars under the management of Boards elected by the people, and they only received £ 965,755 of public money.
THEODORE DGDD
THEODORE DGDD Wishes to add a postscript to ML-. T. E. Ellis. M.P.s open letter, as his former letter was pub- lished before the concluding sentence was finished, and it had in consequence to he cut short :— By way of conclusion in reference to what I said before, dear Ellis, take heed of these two things. Don't funk the first opposition bench. There are those who say that you will not press forward anything that tha G.O.M. and John Morley do not like. We know this is falso. Your advocacy of Welsh Home Rule is proof positive to the contrary. Nevertheless, remember this—that, so far as the real Wales is concerned, not only is it safe, but it is essential to you to push things for Wales, even if the G.O.M. growls at you as he growled at Parnell and Dillon eight years ago, and though Rendel looks awkward and J. Lloyd Morgan shakes his head. The G.O.M. is the English leader, perhaps, but not the inspired prophet of the people of Wales that sent you to Parliament. Does anyone want proof.' Look at the way we received Sir Charles Dilke, in spite of the Daily PtiJl Mull fhtzHte, and even Mr. Gladstone's known wishes. Mr. Froude. in his charming ro- mance. which he calls his History of England, says that in the days of Mary Stuart and centuries later there were two Scotlands. There were the decent, respectable, kirk going. Presbyterian Scotland, and the wild romantic Scotland of the highland clans and Montrose. There are two Wales outside Tory Wales. There are* the unco good, the respectable tradesmen, the stout deacons, the well-paid solicitors, the Wales of Sir Hussey Vivian and John Bryn Roberts. But outside this there is another Wales—the Wales of the Eisteddfod, of the quarries, of the hill farms, the Wales of the tithe riots (I do not fear the word), and the Wales of Mabon. This is the Wales of the future, and that Wales wants a national leader— To make this glorious land of ours, the hills we love so well, A fitting home and resting place where freedom's self may dwell. And when he is found, she will trust him to make his own terms with the leader of the Saxon Liberals. Wei!, my dear Tom, the best of friends must part, and T. D. must bid you farewell. He congratulates you, in conclusion, on your safe recovery from your illness and your return to Wales after your long sojourn in far lands, where the intercourse and friendship of great colonial statesmen has made you a better Imperialist, and and therefore a better patriot than ever. Theodore Dodd wishes you Heaven's blessing and an im- mortal place in the annals of the Cymry, and he cannot wish you more, and yet he can say that these blessings you well deserve.—Your sincere friend, THEODORE DODD. Next week Theodore Dodd will address an Open Letter to Mr. D. LLOYD GEORGE, M.P.

!FOOTBALL NOTES.
FOOTBALL NOTES. [BY THE DRUID, j There is a very remarkable feature about the table of "results" given below. It will be seen that in sixteen of the chief matches in which Welsh clubs were engaged, the losers in each case failed to score a single point and in the drawn match between Neath and Peuygraig no point was registered. This is certainly one of the sur- prises of football, and one which may not again be witnessed for years—in fact, the chances are that we may never know such an occurrence again. In my career I have met with a few surprises. I have seen the rubicon crossed fifteen times in a match—by the one team, while the other failed to score. I played back for a team that scored 24 goals to none, in a cup tie and I had the honour of taking a share in the scoring. I have seen referees pelted with mud and stones. I have seen legs and arms broken, and I have seen a free fight between two teams. But I never saw such a one-siued affair as is the list of results given below. Well, to get to business, were you not all sur- prised to hear of Cardiff's great victory I con- fess I was. After giving Swansea such a drub- bing and then getting the Lancashire County Committee to let off their men from the match— Lancashire v. Cheshire—I thought Swinton would certainly have got the tipper-hand of Cardiff. But it was the old, old story—the Welsh backs simply made rings round the Englishmen, owing to the heme forwards playing a grand game. The match at Newport was—well, nothing short of a sell." I cannot understand why teams like Newport, Swansea, and Cardiff should be so ready to give matches to such ten ms as tho Civil Service, while they refuse to recognise such organizations as the'Quins, Penygraig, and Neath. I feel quite sure in saying that many a second—aye, even third-rate—Welsh team would not allow one of the so-called premiers to cross their line ten times in a match. Swansea had no difficulty in disposing of the students of Guy's Hospital. Yet although the score was 4 goals and 2 tries against them, the Hospitalers played a good game. What will he the result of Saturday's match—Swansea v. New- port and Swansea So far, Newport have not lost a match, and are the Welsh Premiers but, I fancy. Swansea will just about smash their record. I rarely venture to predict the result of a football match, as there is always such a glorious uncer- tainty about it; but suppose I just make a shot at it this week— Swansea win by 4 points. How does that look If I aim out of it this time, very much, I'll never venture to predict again no, never. Neath and Penygraig. like most bitter rivals, allow I am sorry to-day, their meeting to be characterised by rough play. Players should remember that referees have power to order offenders off the ground and referees should not shirk their duty, although not always a pleasant one. Barring this objectionable feature, the match was splendidly contested. Neath had the best of the play, but the pack are weak in dribbling, and the passing of the backs might be greatly improved. Lloyd, the Penygraig full-back, is playing a grand game this year, and he saved magnificently on Saturday. Stoddart and Rees also put in plenty of defensive work on Saturday. Penygraig receive a visit from the 'Quins, and although the latter were defeated last week by Bristol, the hill- men will have all their work cut out if they intend to win. Pontypridd Pontypridd Only last week you all but defeated Penygraig. and the Penarth people quite expected you would give their pets a warm reception, and yet you fallliteraJly to the ground. I must confess that the Rhondda lads' play was very disappointing. Occasionally their forwards did well: but on the whole were a long way behind the Seasiders," while the backs were almost useless. Had it not been for the good play cf young Alun Morgan, the Pontypriudians would have been well nigh extinguished." Rowles. Kirby, Garrett, and Morgan were the pick of the Penarth team. Their running, dodg- ing, and passing was a treat to witness. The home forwards are rather light, but they are honest and are very fast. Matthews and Brown played a clinking game, while Arthur Williams showed that he ought to be included regularly in the team. He is a brilliant forward, dribbles and tackles well. and he can do genuine T; scrum work. Bristol, the conquerors of the 'Quins, visit Pen- arth on Saturday. Let me tell the "Seasiders" that the Bristol team of to-day is nothing like the team they met two seasons ago. The" Citizens" are about the heaviest team that will appear on the Penarth ground this season. Their forwards are hidy fast, very strong, and tackle well; while their halves and three-quarters certainly know how to handle a ball. Their full back is the weak point, and yet he is by no means a duffer. Fast, open, back play must be the order of the day if the Seasiders hope to win. Thompson, the Bristol skipper, is a rattling good forward, while Ashford, one of their three-quarters, I fancy, possesses an English" cap. Bridgend walked over Heath (Cardiff) on Sat- urday to the tune of 4 goals 1 try and 6 minors to love. Emery's brigade should just about manage to account for every team now left on their cards. The homesters were weak owing to the action of the committee in ejecting some of the selected players of the previous Saturday. Quite right, Messrs. Committee. The offenders, if they respect the good name of their club, and if they are true sportsmen, will eat" humble pic," apologise to the committee, and be good lads in future. Harry Vivian again donned the" war paint," and with a little training, just to rub the rust off, he should be worth his place. The backs still are inclined to be selfish, and if they hope to succeed they must really show more combination. The halves arc two good men, and give their three- quarters plenty of work to do. For the good of the Bridgend team, it is to be hoped that the cap- taiu will insist upon unselfish play. There is a great deal of bounce and bluster in Penarth and Cogan about what the result of a match between Penarth A" and Cogan would be. No doubt the meeting would be a very inte- resting and exciting one, and wou!d be productive of a good gate." Who would win Well, you must bear in mind that Cogan easily defeated Pontypridd A," while the latter were two tries too good for the Sea-siders" A team on Satur- day. I have seen Cogan play. and I have seen the Penarth A crowd, and. although I am not pre- pared to give a tip, I am sure the Cogan lads would require some beating before they cried second best." Now, secretary Hall. here is a chance to swell your coffers and I hear that the Penarth LI A's are willing to strike a bargain. — CANTON HARLEQUINS v. BARRY AND CADOXTON DISTRICT 2ND. These teams met at the Witchell Grounds, Cadcxton, last Saturday, in capital football weather, and before a large number of spectators. The Canton team. who were a small lot, played a splendid game throughout. Blow, J. Thomas, and Thorburn were the pick of the forwards. Giles, one of the half-backs, who was marking Swan- sea." played a good game. D. Roberts, one of the three-quarters, scored a try about ten minutes before half-time, after a scrambling bit of play near the home line. Wakelin took the kick, but failed to convert. The home team, who wero a heavy pack, as compared with their opponents. played an indifferent game. The forwards were very rough. The halves played a splendid game. II Swansea having the ball out continually. Of the three-quarters, A. and H. Jones played a good game. The latter had hard lines in not scoring, being pushed into touch within afoot of the line. Price, who played in the centre, was decidedly off colour. He should try and rid himself of the prac- tice of running back when he receives the ball. He was a frequent sinner in this respect on Satur- day. Williams, the full-back, didn't play up to his usual form, but seemed to improve a little towards the end. Final score Canton Harlequins, 1 try 1 minor Barry and Cadoxton District 2nd. 2 minors. The teams were as follows :—Canton Harlequins Back, H. Wakelin three-quarter baci-s, D. Roberts, L. Evans, E. Gilman, R. Jenkins haif-backs, IL Giles, G. Diamond for- C wards, T. Thorburn, T. Thomas. J. Thomas, F. Evans, J. Vaucfhan, J. Lethj bridge (captain), F. Blow, J. Marsden.

Bridgend played down the hill during the first half, and although pressing their opponents hardly, only scored a goal and 6 minors. During the second half, however, they showed up better, although playing against the hill, and result of the game was—Bridgend, 4 goals, 1 try. and 6 minors Heath, nil. The tries were scored by E. Emery (3), W. B. Gregory, and D. Mahonev, the latter converting the goals. Teams :—Bridg- end Back. Brice three-quarter backs. E. Emery (captain), E. S. Fell, W. B. Gregory, and IT.

This match was played at Ogmore Valley on Saturday, and resulted after a splendidly con- tested game in a victory for the home team by 1 try and 2 minors to 3 minors. TONDU v. SWANSEA A." These teams tried conclusions for the first time on the ground of the former before a fair number of spectators. Swansea were well represented, while Tondu were without E. Lloyd, H. Thomas, W. Thomas, W. M. Rees. and D. Grogan. Swan- sea having won the toss G. Rees, the home skipper, kicked off, and being well returned play waged in the visitors' territory, but the visiting captain receiving the ball a grand bit of passing took plsce which enabled Morgans to score under the bar. C. Hughes converted. Half-time score :—Swansea 1 goal to nil. After lemon-sucking over the visitors kicked off, and following well up play was con- fined in the home quarters. Blackmore secured from a scrum and secured a try. C. Hughes con- verted. Tondu were nettled, and the homesters warming up rushed the ball up the field. The visiting captain returned well, and W. T. Jones securing mad. the grandest run that has been z! witnessed on the Tondu ground and securing a try, the', same player converted. Final scrre :—Swan- sea, 2 goals 'Tondu, 1 goal. C. Hughes played a good game at back for the visitors, while Thomas (capt.), and Morgans were the pick of the three- quarters. Blackmore played a clinking game at half, and all the forwards played well. E. Sullivan. the home back, was not in his usual form W. T. Jones, Lockwood, and Stafford played a good game at three-quarter, the collaring of the latter was excellent. J. Murphy was a complete failure J. Hopkins was the best of the halves. G. Rees (capt.), J. II. WilEams, R. Williams, and J. John were the pick of the forwards. Swansea A" Team :—Back, C.
