Nodion. Dangosodd etholiad Canolbarth Mor- ganwg fod cyfathrach rhwng Rhyddfryd- iaeth a Sosialaeth yn anmhosibl. Efallai y dywed rhywun y dylai y ddwyblaid filwrio dan y ddwy faner. Ond rhaid i in gymeryd pethau fel y maent ac nid fel y dylent fod. Yn Nghymru, o leiaf, y mae y fath undeb allan o'r cwestiwn. Gellir arwain y Cymro at y ffrydiau Sosialaidd sydd yn llifo i'w wlad o wlad arall trwy dwll yn Nghlawdd Offa, ond nis gellir ei orfodi i yfed. Dyweder a fyner, Rhyddfrydwr ydyw y Cymro mewn gwleidyddiaeth a Cheid- ) wadwr mewn credo grefyddol. Nid ydym yn gwneyd beirniadaeth ar ei ymddygiad, gan ein bod yn wastad yn ceisio ysgoi ccrs sigl gwleidyddiaeth. Ond yr ydym yn traethu hanes gwir pan ddywedwn fod yr ymdreeh i wneyd y Cymro yn Social- ist wedi methu. Ar wahan i Ganol- barth Morganwg, dangosodd yr etholiad- au diweddar yn Aberdar nad yw ymgeis- iaeth aelodan yr I.L.P. yn boblogaidd. Fel y dywedasom o'r blaen, y mae cryn wahaniaeth rhwng cynrychiolaeth Llafur a chynrychiolaeth Sosialaidd. Teilwng i'r gweithiwr ei hur, a theilwng yw iddo gael ei lais yn y Senedd ac ar fyrddau lleol, ond ni raid iddo, er cael y fraint hono, gymeryd yn garedig at syniadau Robert Owen na Keir Hardie. Diau fod brodyr yr I.L.P. yn gwneyd eu rhan tuag at gynorthwyo y gweithiwr, ond dylid ccfio nad hwy yw ei unig gymwynaswyr. En ar y maes rymuswyr yn Nghymru o blaid achos meibion llafur cyn bod son am eni y blaid a elwir heddyw wrth enw Llafur. Hvnododd Mabon el hun yn un o'i areithiau cyntaf yn Nhy y Cyffredin drwy adrodd Gweddi yr Arglwydd yn Gym- iaeg, a bu synclod yn ngwersyll yr estron. Gwnaeth Mr. Edgar Jone3 beth oyfFelyb yn un o'i ddatganiadau cyntaf yntau yn y Ty. "Trech gwlad nag Arglwydd oedd y frawddeg a ddisgynodd ar glust y Ty o enau Edgar y Cymro. Yr hyn oedd yn hynod yn nglvn a Chymraeg Edgar Jones oedd ddarfod iddo ymddangos yn yr adroddiad swyddogol yxi A country is stronger than a law 1"

Watcyn Wyn Dyn tyner-galon oedd Watcyn Wyn: ac feallai mai dyna a'i gwnaetb yn ffafryn gwlad ar wahan i'w athrylith. Svlwodd gwawl-arlunydd Rhydamman fod hen gipsy yn dod at ei ffenestr ef bron bob dydd, i edrych ar ddarlun o'r Bardd or Gwynfrvn. Ar ol edrych ar ei wyneb siriol am funyd neu ddau sychai ddeigryn gloew oddiar ei gwyneb melynddu a blaenau ei bysedd meinion; yna elai ymaith yn wynebdrist. Eyw foreu cer- ddcdd y'gipsy i fewn i'r studio, a gofyn- odd am bris y darlun mewn ffram neill- duol; yna dywedodd, U I want to have his picture.in my van Cytunwyd; a thalwyd y pris ar fyrder; ac heddyw gwelir darlun o'r bardd yn van y sipsiwn; ac nid oes yno yr un darlun arall-efe yw brenhin y van. Yr oedd yr hen gipsy yn adnabod Watcyn Wyn er ys haner can mlynedd; ac yr oedd yntau wedi bwrw ei hatling i'w thrysorfa, lawer boreu blwng, ar hyd llethrau oerion gwlad Myrddin. Dywedodd Gurnos, ryw dro, am ben- tref y Bettws, Sir Forganwg, lie y bu byw am gyfnod- "Yma mae stop ar bo'peth Ond ar dramps a chodi'r dreth." Safai'r Bettws rhwng cymoedd poblog y Llynfi a'r Garw; ac yn y dyddiau hyny gwelid mwy o grwydriaid a chasglwyr trethi ar heolydd y Bettws nag hyd yn nod o bentrefwyr dyddan. Teimlai Wat- cyn Wyn a Gurnoa dipyn o ddyddordeb mewn tramps. Gwelais y ddau, ryw dro, yn rhoddi tybaeo yn mhibell un or tramps ar yr heol. Llanwai Gurnos bibell y tramp hyd yr ymylau; ao yna rhoddai Watcyn dan ar y pentwt. Golyg- fa ddoniol oedd hi, yn enwedig pan oedd Gurnos yn siglo Haw a'r hen bererin blin ac yn dymuno'n dda iddo. Daeth cymeriad hynod o ardal Llan- debie at ddrws yr Ysgoldy, un diwrnod. Gan fod y cymeriad a'r ymddiddan yn ddoniol cafodd y myfyrwyr bob cyfleusdra i wrando'r YSgWrs Baich cais y doniol- ddyn oedd, fod ganddo fachgen bychan talentog,—yn athrylith bob modfedd o'i glai. Dywedai'r dyn wrth yr athraw, er mwyn profi galluoedd uwchraddol ei fab, i'r crwt ysgrifenu llythyr i Wolverhamp- ton i geisio corgi o waed neiUduol; "a chredwch fi, eyr," ebe fe, "fe ddaeth y ci, ac fe gyfarthodd yn iach ar Orsaf Llandebie" "Da iawn," ebe Watcyn Wyn, "gyrwch y bachgen yma i'r ysgol, ac fe ddysga i iddo, os bydd eisieu, i ordero menagerie o ben draw'r byd." Daeth y crwt i'r ysgol dranoeth: ac er i'w dad ffol ei roddi dan anfantais, gofal- odd yr athraw sefyll rhyngddo a stori'r corgi o Loegr. Pe buasai Watcyn Wyn o natur lwfr- fel Islwyn, gwelsid ef yn ei wely ganwaith yn lie treulio noson gyda'r delyn ond yr oedd mor ffyddiog fel yr ymlusgodd mewn gwendid ganwaith i gymoedd Mor- ganwg gyda'i ddarlith a'i bregeth. Gan- wyd ef ar ddiwrnod heulog, a bu yntau yn ddigon call i wel'd yr ochr oleu i bob tro chwyrn, o'r Gwter Fawr i Chicago. Pan gollodd ei "Long" yn Nghaerdydd diolchodd fod y cadben yn fyw. "Beth yw'r gwydr yna sv' yn nho'r ysgoldy P" ebe rhywun difeddwl wrtho, ryw dro. "Fachgen," ebe fe, "dyna ysgol pregeth- wyr i ti i'r dim—goleu oddi fry.' Yr oedd "te hen lanciau yn y Gwyn- fryn un haf; ac nid oedd yr un ddynes i ddod yn agoe i'r lie, oddigerth Mrs. Wil- j liams: efe, wrth gwrs, oedd yn ei gwa- hcdd hi i fesur y te cyn ei roddi yn y tepot rhag i'r te droi yn freci. Cododd jJun o'r myfyrwyr, ar y diwedd, i ddiolch i Mrs. Williams am fesur y te; ac ych- wanegodd, fwy nag unwaith, fod y te yn un anarferol. Aethai y gair anarferol yn dramgwydd chwerthingar. Cododd y prif-athraw ar ei draed; a chydag un gair holltodd y fro ar ben y myfyriwr. Ebe fe. a An-arferol ,am fod <Ann ni' yma, a neb arall."—"Glasnant" yn a Ngheninen I Gwyl Dewi," cyhoeddiad cenedlaethol.

Bryn Sion, Trecynon. Cynhaliodd Eglwys Fethodistaidd Bryn Seion ei chyrddau pregethu ddydd Sul a dydd Llun diweddaf. Y Parch. J. H. Williams, Llangefni, ydoedd pregethwr prydnawn Sul. Ei bwnc ydoedd "Yr efengyl yn alwad i santeiddrwydd." Yn nghwrs ei bregeth dywedodd Mr. Wil- liams fod y Ehesymolwyr (Rationalists) yn dodi santeiddrwydd ar wahan i Grist- ionogaeth, ac yn taeru mai mater a du- eddfryd ydoedd y blaenaf. Mvnent fod pcbl yn santaidd, nid o herwydd eu cref- ydd ond o herwydd eu natur. Ond nid oedd gwir santeiddrwydd ar wahan i wir grefydd. Llywyddid y cyrddau gan y Parch. John Morgan, gweinidog yr eglwys.

Lloffion Gwleidyddol. GAN UN AR Y MAES." Yr ydym yn mwynhau tawelwch ar ol dwndwr a berw yr etholiadau. Y mae yr etholwyr wedi rhoddi eu barn yn gryf a-j yn groew. "Ofer dadl wedi barn" medd yr hen ddiareb. Ond gyda'ch caniatad, Mr. Gol., carwn ddweyd ych- ydig ar yr uchod. Fe gafodd y Blaid Lafurawl ei siomi yn y brwydrau yn Aberdar. Crodaf fod yr annea-lldwriaeth a fodola rhwng y Blaid Lafurawl a Phlaid Annibynol Llafur (I.L.P.) yn rheswm dros hyny. Gresyn meddwl na allasai y ddwy blaid gydweithio, ond dyna, y mae y blaid gyntaf yn fwy eang ei syniadau am' y gair llafur" na'r olaf. Na feddylied aelodau yr olaf eu bod hwy i lywodraethu y blaenaf. Y mae Cynghor Celf a Llafur Aberdar yn cael ei wneud i fyny o ddynion sydd yn dal, yn gydwybodol, credaf, syniadau air wella sefyllfa cymdeithas ag sydd yn wrthun i rai o aelodau Plaid Annibynol Llafur. Y mae y blaenaf am fyned dros yr heol fawr, a chasglu at eu nifer a'u nerth o'r rhai sydd yn tramwy y ffordd hono; ond y mae yr olaf am fyned dros y cloddiau a thrwy y corsydd, ac yn mhen ychydig gwelir hwynt yn dyfod i wersyll y blaid arall yn gloff, wedi eu hanafu yn [ y drain a'r drysni, ac yn gofyn am gymorth i ymladd y frwydr. Gobeithiaf y teyrnasa heddwch, ac na fydd iddynt f fyned i edrrch am yr anhawsderau, ond yn hytrach eu hysgoi. J Cefais y pleser o fod yn bresenol yn nghyfarfod mawr y Rhyddfrydwyr leu- ainc yn Heolyfelin nos Sadwrn. Cafodd 1 Mr. Edgar Jones dderbyniad croesawgar, < ac fe rodd'odd i'r dorf enfawr gipdrem o'r gwaith sydd yn cael ei wneud yn St. s Stephan. Da oedd genyf ganfod ei fod t ef yn fyw i waith y wladwriaeth ac fod i etholwyr bwrdeisdrefi Merthyr yn rhoddi i digon o waith iddo. Y mae yn ieuanc, ac 1 fe all wneud llawer, ond peidied yr ethol- t nyr a'i lethu. f Yr oedd anerchiad y Parch. J. Morgan t Jones, M.A., yn odidog. Yr oedd, pan yn son am yr arian a werir ar longau rhyfel, magnelau, etc., yn dal y gynulleid- fa yn syn, ac nid rhyfedd i rai waeddi allan, Go on." Gwr yn dyheu am heddwch ydyw y Parch. J. M. Jones. Yr oedd yn dda genyf glywed Mr. Clem Edwards. Er ei fod wedi colli ei sedd yn yr etholiad diweddaf, credaf y bydd i wyr Dinbych weled eu camgymeriad yn fuan. Carwn ddyweud gair wrth bwyllgor y Rhyddfrydwyr Ieuainc. Pan y byddant yn cynal cyfarfod mawr eto, bydded iddynt geisio cael un siaradwr yn Gym- raeg. Adwaenwn lawer o hen frodyr sydd wedi bod yn golofnau cedyrn yn y rhengoedd Rhyddfrydol a fuasent wedi mwynhau y cwrdd yn well pe cawsent ragor o'r Omeraeg. Gobeithaf y bydd i'r pwyllgor gymeryd yr ychydig eiriau hyn yn garedig.

Young Liberals' League. SENIOR M.P. AT TRECYNON. COUNCILLOR M. J. HARRIS'S RETORT TO MR. KEIR HARDIE. Mr. Edgar Jones M.P., addressed his first meeting at Trecynon on Saturday evening. It was held under the auspices of the Young Liberals League at Eben- ezer Chapel, which was crowded. There were present Councillors M. J. Harris (in the chair), T. Lewis, T. Wal- ter Williams, B.Sc., H. H. Evans, M.E.; Revs. T. Powell, J. Grawys Jones, J. M. Jones, M.A., J. Morgan, and J. D. Rees; Messrs. D. Williams, D. L. Edmunds, J. Aubrey Roberts, B.A., sec. of the Young* Liberals League; Evan Williams, treas- urer, and a good muster of the Young' Liberals. The Chairman said he was pleased to be present on behalf of the Young Liber- als League to welcome their Senior Mem- ber. He trusted that his visit would be the means of inspiring more enthusiasm into the younger Liberals. He considered that in the light of the Mid-Glamorgan contest the Young Liberals were justified in the course they were adopting. In view of what their Junior Member had said the other day, he (the speaker) was not sure whether he ought to have been there that night. Mr. Keir Hardie had said that a grocer had no convictions. (Laughter.) But personally he could see no difference between the man who sold the necessities of life and the man who sold the "Labour Leader." Probably there was more profit in paper than in sugar. (Laughter and applause.) Mr. Edgar Jones, M.P., who was re- ceived with rousing cheers, said that he simply wanted a little talk with his con- stituents and to give a brief account of his stewardship. He had already dis- covered that an M.P.. could be very use- ful to the various 'public bodies and also to various individuals living in the con- stituency. He had moved in the matter of obtaining at least one lady inspector of factories conversant in the Welsh language, and he had approached the President of the Board of Trade with the view of increasing the usefulness of the Labour Exchanges to colliers who were thrown out of employment from time to time. Proceeding to deal with the political situation, the speaker exhorted the aud- ience to be patient with the Government in the present crisis. He appealed to them to hold their judgment in suspense for a short time longer. He would never forget the throb which accompanied the following words uttered by Mr. Lloyd George the other day: If we could have the necessary patience, comrade- ship, and courage, we might even now win a great victory for the people of this country, but without that spirit of trust and of comradeship and of courage we shall lose all—everything." They were all aware that Mr. Asquith did not have what he had from 1906 to 1909, an inde- pendent majority of his own. If he had that majority they would expect him to go straight ahead. Up to the present his wonderful strength had held the party together. Mr. Jones then referred to the difficult situation Mr. Asquith had been placed in owing to amendments moved. He (Mr. Jones) had a speech ready on the amendment on the Navy Estimates. He felt it was a shame to spend an additional ^85,000,000 for arma- ments, but after all, the amendment would avail little, and he reserved that speech till some more opportune time. The real issue-The Veto-was reached on Easter Tuesday. The Veto simply meant to place certain resolutions in writing, resolutions which had been in practice for hundreds of years. He sin- cerely hoped that the Irish Party would see their way to support Mr. Asquith, after the Veto had been sent to the Lords, in passing the Budget in its present form. (Applause.) He was dis- posed to think that the next General Election would be fought on the question as to whether the King should give guar- antees, that is, create a sufficient num- ber of Liberal Peers to swamp the Tory majority in the House of Lords. The Rev. J. Morgan Jones, M.A., Aber- dare, offered his congratulations to Mr. Edgar Jones for the way he had spent his first three or four months in the House of Commons. He congratulated him also on his maiden speech, though he felt sorry that Mr. Edgar Jones had not had an opportunity of delivering that speech on the Navy Estimates. Liberal Govern- ment or no Liberal Government, Mr. Jones ought, as a successor to the peace- maker, Henry Richard, to protest against the swelling expenditure upon weapons of war. (Applause.) He did not think the Government had a right to spend more and more upon such things, while there remained so many other ways in which money might be more profitably spent. (Applause.) Unfortunately the circumstances of the political situation were such that no effective protest could be made this year. Proceeding, Mr. Jones said he did not mind the existence of a Second Chamber. What they must see to is that it should be made a.s harmless as possible. The one thing that would be necessary in the country would be that all the friends of progress should be able, with a clear conscience, to join hands and fight shoulder to shoulder the great battle against poverty and destitution. (Ap- plause.) It was a great problem. in South Wales to discover how, by toleration, could the progressive forces combine to- gether for a common object. It was a great pity that a contest had taken place in Mid-Glamorgan. They were all agreed upon a policy of abolishing poverty so far as possible, then why on earth could not they join hands in order to accomplish it. Councillor T. Walter Williams said that he'would first make a confession of political faith. He had no love for second chambers of any kind. He had no desire to see the House of Lord replaced by any Chamber. It was erroneously held that a Second Chamber was neces- sary in order to check hasty and ill-con- ceived legislation. He was, however, in L'avour (f making the House of Commons r more representative. He favoured limit- Lng the number of M.P.'s. He would stablish the principle of "one man one rote," fncluding of course "one woman me vote." (Hear, hear.) He was also :11 favour of paying M.P.'s a small salary. He (the speaker) was convinced ;hat King Edward was diplomatic enough lot to refuse to sanction the course con- ;emplated by Mr. Asquith, inasmuch as le had a majority at his back. When ;he Veto of the House of Lords would be I ibolished he had no doubt that the House )f Commons, would embark upon a most iseful career of legislation.' (Applause.)

Liberal Jottings. BY "Y.L." Mr Clem. Edwards, who spoke at the Young Liberals' League meeting at Trecynon on Saturday night is a keen sport, and he has taken his defeat in the Denbigh Boroughs in a sportsmanlike manner. There are some memwho cannot take either victory or defeat with grace. The former gives them a swelled head and the latter a sour heart. But Clem., despite his defeat—which, by the way, leaves nothing to the enemy to crow e about-is as jolly as ever during his political holiday. >- May it be a brief one. o Our senior member did not enter so much into the Welsh "hwyl" on Satur- c day night as he used to. Perhaps his e Cymric fervour is undergoing a course of discipline at that matter-of-fact work- shop of laws—St. Stephen's. s p t It is clear however that Edgar is t getting into the procedure of the House alright, and is having a good grasp of (] the details of the legislative machinery. s The chairman, Councillor Morgan p John," as he is familiarly known, made y the retort courteous to Mr Keir e Hardie's insinuation that a grocer has d no convictions. Well, a grocer who has e no convictions is qualified for I.L.P. g membership, for Mr Hardie has declared e that a Socialist who is troubled about scruples of conscience is not worth his salt. h. ——— S The Young Liberals' League in Aber- | dare is justifying its existence. Mr 1- Ernest Evans' meeting at Aberdare on Saturday week was a success. Mr Edgar Jones' meeting at Trecynon last 'g Saturday was a rattling success. Aber- dare and Trecynon are, at any rate, loyal to the faith which was once delivered unto the Liberal saints. Gratifying too was the success of members of the League in the Gadlys Ward, at the late election, although the League had not identified itself with the candidature of one of the four, as the I.L.P. had done with their candidates. ? Both Messrs Ernest Evans and Clem- r ent Edwards are spoken of as eligible candidates for the junior representation r of the Merthyr Boroughs. So they are, but probably with Clem. 'tis well to be 3 off with the old love before he is on ) with the new. He will very likely try ) to regain the narrowly lost affections of s Denbigh. Ernest Evans has undoubted- 3 ly the making of a good Welsh M.P, Owing to the lateness of the season. (for festive, purposes), Leaguers have ) abandoned the idea, of a social. But I learn that a ramble or picnic is contem- plated. I trust that something will be done to sustain the interest in and the efforts on behalf of the League during the languid summer months. It should be remembered however that not enjoyment and not academic discussion is the destined end or way of Young Liberalism, but to act that each tomorrow finds us farther than to-day on the road of practical progress. Boys and girls, don't forget propaganda work I The Young Liberals' League is often called in error Young Liberal League." The adjective young qualifies the Liberals and not the League. Of course the League is young as yet, but a hun- dred years hence it will be old. How- ever, its members will even then be young-young in spirit if not in years.
