4L.---"* The General Election.
4L The General Election. The Position in the Rhondda. Three-cornered Fight Probable. Socialist Opposition to Mabon. Nominations Dec. 9th. Polling Day, Dec. 16th. Tkere is every probability of a three- cornered contest in the Rholldda for the first time in its history. Not only are the Conservatives making a fight for the seat, but the Socialists are also up in arms against Mabon, and have called a meeting for next Friday evening to shew their dissatisfaction against the present state of things." Mr. Geo. Ebury, Yorkshire, the cartoonist of the Yerkshire- Times," will address this meeting, which will be held at the Judge's Hall. A meeting of the Mid-Rliondda branches of the I.L.P. was held on Monday night to consider the advisability of contesting the seat in the Socialist interest. Several names of likely candidates were men tioned, among them being Mr. Victor Grayson, Mr. Ben Tillett. Mr. Cunning- ham Graham, Mr. Tom Mann, and Mr. Mardy Jones. It is rumoured—and we give it for what it is worth-tllat, a prominent Mid-Rhondda. gentleman is willing to stand as a Socialist candidate, providing he gets the requisite financial backing. A prominent local miners' leader, speak- ing to one of our correspondents, said that there was no docbt Mabon had lost a great deal of the confidence of the miners in the Rhojadda through his action in advising the Com- bine workmen to accept the last terms offered by the Cambrian Trust. At the same time, he was not prepared to say that Mabon would be ousted even in the case of a three-cornered fight. Mabon was adopted Labour candidate by the monthly meeting of the Rhondda miners at Porth on Monday. The veteran leader has not held any meetings up to tho present. Mr. Harold Lloyd, Cardiff, is again the chosen champion of the Tariff Reformers. He has already addressed two or three meetings in the constituency, and has also mixed freely among the strikers at Tonypandy during the present week. He is fghting a tremendous uphill fight, and can hardly be expected to do better than he did last January. He is undoubtedly one of the most popular candidates that could be put forward by the Conservative Party, but even his persuasive eloquence will not induce the hard-headed Rhondda coHier to give his vote to the party which proposes to tax the people's bread and allow the rich man's land to go free. There are too many object-lessons in the Rhondda of the manner in which the landlord waxes rich on the industry of the toiler. What we should like to learn from Mr. Lloyd is, How would the collier benefit under Protection? A tax on the export of coal would evidently not bring him much forrader, otherwise why the outcry against it by all the miners' leaders when it was imposed by .a Tory Government? And again, if a tax on corn is desirable in 1910, why was it taken off after being imposed by the last Tory Administration? And if the British consumer does not pay the import tax, why did Sir Michael Hicks-Beach (as he was then) admit that the tax on corn imposed by his Govern- ment had resulted in a rise in the price of bread? Further, what need' was there of compensating those merchants who held large quantities of grain purchased while .the tax was in existence if the foreigner really paid the duty ? Do the Tariff Reformers really ask us to believe that British merchants were remitted a tax which was not paid by them? These are some of the questions which Mr. Harol dLloyd ought'to explain vefore the Rhondda elector gives him his vote.
To Reform Themselves.
To Reform Themselves. [By Mr. EDGAR JONEK] Continuing his article of last < week under the heading" The Week at West- minster," Mr. Edgar Jones deals with the proposals of the Lords far reformiiig that institution. "They (the Lords)," writes Mr. Jones, <c refuse to, tell us how the Joint Session is to be composed—how many Housb of Commons representatives and how many Lords—what proportion of respective parties, Labour and Irish, Welsh and Scotch, &c. "Obviously this is the whole essence of the situation. It is not a matter of detail. It is all and everything. If the Joint Session gives a permanent Tory plus Hereditary Peer majority, what is the good of it all? Such an arrangement would be worse and more unfair than the present system. "I venture to suggest that it was on this point the Conference broke up. The Tories would not commit themselves to the proportion of representation on the Joint Session. "Then as to the Referendum, the obvious comment is that they intend to drive all big Liberal Bills to a poll of the people, and no Tory Bills, however revolutionary or reactionary, will ever have to undergo the ordeal. The Prime Minister's comment upon it all hits off the situation. We are dealing with realities.' Another fort- night will decide once for all whether the People are to. dominate, or a handful of Peers:, the issue is tremendous—Long live the People. 'b The Lords are throwing us one tiling after another. Like a Russian sledge party with a pack in full mouth behind them, they are sacrificing one dog after another in fear and panic. They have accepted the clause of the Government Bill destroying the power of the Lords to throw out a Finance Bill: and the Speaker is to be the final umpire as to 1 tacking.' The only question now remaining is that of general Bills like Education, Dis- establishment, Land Reform, &c. The Government proposed to give the Lords three chances. A Bill was to be sent up without amendment, carried three times in succession through the House of Commons (a difficult thing with any big Bill). If then the Lords persisted in rejecting it, the Bill became law over their heads. The Lords have met that during the last few days with a very plausible sug- gestion. They say that a Bill after one year, not two, shall, if rejected by the Lords, go to a Joint Session of the two Houses; and if it is a very serious semi-Constitu- tional Bill like Home Rule, it must go to a Referendum. All this looks very tempting. The Lords think that the nation will be gulled. But the plain truth is that all this is a mere blind, and a mere sham."
- What Unionism Means.
What Unionism Means. Mr. Harold Lloyd at Ystrad. Mr. Harold Lloyd, Conservative candi- date for the Rhondda, addressed a meet- ing at Ystrad on Tuesday evening. He said that the electors were becoming sick of the abuse and vilification which mem- bers of the Liberal Administration indulged in (hear, hear). It was the easiest thing in the world to he abusive, but it seldom paid in the long run, but recoiled upon the heads of those who used it as a weapon. The election was iprobably the greatest which had taken place within the memory of living man. The issues were most momentous, and had to be faced. The great Unionist Party were determined that, as far as they were concerned, they would do everything in their power to prevent the break up of the Union. The Government were not their own masters, and were entirely dependent upon the whims and vagaries of dynamiters like Mr. Patrick Ford and liis clique. Liberal speakers always talked as if there were 600 peers on the one- side, and every other man, woman and child in the kingdom on the other, under the Liberal banner. ITe would like to point out that at the last General Elec- tion the Unionist Party polled 3,250,000 votes, whilst the Liberals, together with their Socialist allies. Home Ruleirs, and fanatics of every description, only polled an additional 260,00-01. In their opinion, the country was practically equally divided. Was it right or proper that the whole of the Empire should be shaken by a Constitutional struggle of the kind which was now in progress ? The Unionist programme was the programme of justice and reform. Unionism meant safety. Unionism meant confidence, and Unionism meant comfort. and security, with justice to all classes (loud applause).

Tonypandy Result.
Tonypandy Result. What is the result here in Tonypandy ? We have heard the good news from neighbouring towns, but somehow nothing has just the same weight with us as the result in 'our home town. A Tonypandy result like the following, however, must impress us all. Mr. T. Taylor, of 50, Ely Street, Tony- pandy, says: I had been. subject to kidney and bladder complaint for a couple of years, on and off. At times I was hardly able to pass the kidney secretions, which caused a scalding pain, ?nd were discoloured and contained a sandy sub- stance. My back was so bad that I have been off work for four days at a time. At my work as a miner I am mostly always stooping, and it is bad to have anything the matter, especially with the back. The doctor's medicine did not seem to do me good, but the first box of Doan's Backache Kidney Pills eased the bladder trouble splendidly; I was able to pass the secretions more freely, and they were clearer. The backache became less severe, too, and I am glad to say that four boxes of Doan's pills cured me. I am not troubled now. I can well recommend the pills. (Signed) Thomas Taylor." Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are two shillings and ninepence per box, or six boxes for thirteen shillings and ninepence. Of all chemists and stores, or post free direct from the Foster-McClellan Co., 8, Wells Street, Oxford Street, London, W. Be sure you get the same kind of pills as Mr. Taylor had. 4905b

Alderman W. H. Mathias Bereaved.
Alderman W. H. Mathias Bereaved. Death and Burial of a Gifted Son. Impressive Scenes at Llanwonno Amidst every manifestation of grief and sympathy the funeral took place on Saturday last of Dr. Richard Mathias, M.A., M B., of Bryn Teg, Radyr, son of Alderman W. II. Mathias, J.P., Portli, the interment being at Llanwonno Churchyard, a spot hallowed by several centuries of sacred associations, and made peculiarly fitting as the last resting- place of the deceased owing to the fact that two of his children had been already buried there. Durmg the morning a large number of sympathisers called at Bryn 'leg to offer their condolences to the bereaved widow aiet her only daugh- ter, who were comforted in their grief by the kindly presence of the deceased's revered father, Alderman W. H. Mathias, who was, however, himself sorely stricken by the loss of a. gifted, loving son. Throughout the neighbourhood, where Dr. Mathias had won the affections of all classes by his professional advice and attentions and by his amiable personality, the blinds were drawn in respect for the dead, and small groups of the inhabitants were to be seen awaiting the coming of the cortege. Shortly after 11.30 a.m. the coffin was borne out of the house, amidst many signs of deep bereavement, and as the procession wended its way slowly through Radyr, Taff's Well. Nantgarw, Upper Boat, Treforest, and Pontypridd, up the steep side of the Graigwen Moun- tain to Llanwonno, there were repeated evidences of the desire of the general public to participate in the tribute of sorrowful respect to the memory of a. most popular medical man and friend. Amongst those who accompanied the cortege were the following: —First car- riage—The Rev. T. D. Bevan (vicar of Ewenny), the Rev. David Phillips (rector of Radyr), the Rev. T. E. Griffiths (vicar of Llanwonno), and Mr. D. Ellis, Radyr; second carriage-Dr. D. T. Edwards, Taff's Well, Mr. E. Perrot, Taff's Well, and Drs. T. W. Parry, Ferndale, and D. R. Thomas, Taft's Well, the deceased's medical attendants. Then followed the -ieai,se, with the casket tite whole of the catafalque hidden by beautiful flowers, the coffin plate bearing the inscription: — 9*6 Richard Mathias, Died November 22, 1910, Aged 39 years. Then came the chief mourners in the following order—Third carriage—Alder- man W. H. Mathias, Porth (father), Sir. James Mathias, Nelson (brother), Mr. John Mathias, Porth (brother), and Mr. T. W. W. Morgan, Penarth (uncle); fourth carriage—Mr. Henry F. Grover, Radyr (brother-in-law), Mr. Richard Mathias, Pontypridd (uncle), Mr. W. J. Thomas. Ynyshir (cousin), and Mr. John Thomas, Ynyshir (uncle) fifth carriage— Mr. L. P. Griffiths, Barry (brother-in- law), Mr. Ed. Williams, Pontypridd (bro- ther-in-law), Dr. R. G. Price, Carmarthen (uncle). Dr. Owen Williams, Burry Port (uncle), and Mr. Edmund Thomas, J.P., Gilwern, Pontllanfraith; sixth carriage— Dr. Rees Morgan, Newport (uncle), Dr. R. T. Jones, Harlesden (uncle), Mr. Geo. Packer, Porth (cousin), and Air David Jenkins. Porth (uncle); seventh carriage -Mr. Matthew Wayne Morgan, Whit- church, and Mr. J. W. John, Ynyshir. Taking up their position in the rear were the mounted huntsman and whip of the Ystrad and Pentyrch Hunt (of which Dr. Mathias was an enthusiastic member), and following them for varying stages of the twelve-mile route came small parties of the general public. The clergy already named officiated at the church and graveside, the first part of the burial service being supplemented bv the, singing by the crowded congre- gation of the beautiful obsequial hymn, 0 fryniau Caersalem ceir gweled," the Rev. A. J. Edwards, vicar of Ogmore Vale, acting as accompanist. The scene at the churchyard was a solemn and im- pressive one, the large concourse of the deceased's relatives and personal friends standing bareheaded and following atten- tivelv the words of the beautiful com- mittal service.. A large number of wreaths received from relatives and friends were conveyed to the churchyard in carriages. Resolutions of sympathy have been re- ceived by Alderman W. H. Mathias from the magistrates at Porth; the Rhondda District Council; and also the Ystrady- 1 odwg and Pontypridd Joint Board. The late Dr. Mathias had a very bril- t .int career at Cambridge University, and subsequently at Guy's Hospital, and had "11rec1 the degrees of M.A. and M.B. before he was 25 years of age.
Blown to Pieces.
Blown to Pieces. Explosion in Tonyrefail House. An alarming explosion occurred at the house of William Protheroe, a collier, of Mill Street, Tonyrefail. on Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Protheroe had put some coal on the fire, and shortly aft-erwards I eard a fizzling noise. She got up from ia front of the grate., where she was cleaning the fire-irons, when all at once heard a loud report. The force was 5 >■ great that the fireside was blown to I ieces, windows smashed to atoms, and tIe furniture hurled across the kitchen. When the neighbours hurried to the ene they found Mrs. Protheroe covered soot, and carried her to an adjoining nise. Luckily she received no bodily tinry, but suffered from shock. The only explanation that can be given l" the occurrence was that some explo- matter must have been in the coal.

Federations of Evangelical Free Churches in Wales. Disestablishment Campaign Committee. General Election Manifesto. To the Free Churchmen of Wales Another General Election is thrust upon us, aid now, at last, we are face to face with the hereditary foes of all freedom and religious equality. The suc- cessful issue of this struggie will remove the last- barrier to the realisation of our national hopes. Our claim was just forty years ago, and the agitation of every succeeding year has brought the justice of our demand into clearer light. I The report of the Royal Commission has only confirmed our statements as to details and, demonstrated, with the authority of a Blue Book, the liollowness of the claim of the Anglican Church to be the National Church of Wales. In the last Parliament, Welsh Disestablish- ment was promised the first place in the next Session. That Session was inter- fered with through the wantqji insolence of the House of Lords but in his address at the Albert Hall. Mr. Asquith declared that the House of Lords was the one and only obstacle to the Bill. This year, all the Liberal and Labour members for Wales and Monmouthshire pledged themselves to demand the intro- duction and the passing through all its stages of the Bill on the first opportunity after dealing with the Lords' Veto and the Budget. We, therefore, urge the Free Church electors of Wales to demand pledges from all candidates (1) to sup- port the Government in abolishing the Lords' veto, and (2) to demand the main- tenance of the premier position in contro- versial domestic measures, after the Veto and Budget, for Welsh Disestablishment as a condition of their support of the Government. The day of deliverance is come. Now is the time to strike the final blow. This year, above all, Wales should return another solid phalanx" in support of the Government.

Lock-out: According to the ethics of Lord Snob and the Duke of Gotemagain, a perfectly legitimate and just method of keeping men in their proper station. What would become of us," they ask, "if working men had their way? ♦ ♦ Mr. Geo. Ebury, the cartoonist of the Yorkshire. Times,1' after hearing the Williamstown Male Voice Party at the Theatre Royal last Sunday night said he did not know what splendour there was in Mid-Rhondda to produce such able singing. It was gratifying to think that strikers could sing such beautiful songs. Cominrr from a Yorkshire man, where music in its various forms is like the very breath of the people, this is praise indeed. But would it not have been better for Mr. Ebury to have waited for the Christmas waits? Booker T. Washington, who has done so much for the uplifting of the black race in America, tells a very interesting story of a negro who one hot day, when at work in the cotton field, ceased from his toil and was overheard to say, Oh, Lawd, de cotton am so grassy, de work am so hard, and de sun am so hot, dat I b'lieve dis darkey am called to preach." One is tempted to think," says a corres- pondent, that many of our Welsh pulpiteers received their call to the ministry 'under similar circumstances." But even the ministry is not all beer and skittles. Whatever sins may be laid at the door of the Welsh collier, it cannot be denied that he has a keen sense of humour. The story of the rescue of the bjack cat at the Glamorgan Colliery has given ample scope to his genius in this direc- tion. One of the principal attractions at last Sunday's meeting at the Theatre Royal was a little furry object placed on a table, which emitted some weird sounds when stroked by the speakers. Never was a turn witnessed at the Royal which brought down the house so effec. tively as these purrings!

Setter, altar vases; various members of the congre- gation, surplices and cassooks, The Lord Bishop of Llandaff, in the course of his sermon on Wednesday after- noon, congratulated the church upon the completion of the renovations, and he rejoiced with them. His lordship took for his text a portion of the 38th verse in the first chapter of John What seek ye? He referred to the apostle Andrew, who, haying found the Messiah, imme- diately imparted the knowledge to his brother. Simon Peter. We should do the same. Having sought and found Christ, we should impart our knowledge to our fellow-beings. Sir Hubert Parry's Magnificant and Nunc Dimittis in D, and Sir George Elvey's beautiful anthem, I was glad when they said unto me," were David Lloyd, organist and choirmaster. In the evening, the Venerable Arch- deacon of Llandaff nreached. At Thursday night's service, the Rev. J. D. James, M.A., vicar of Cadoxton- juxta-Neath, officiated. The Rev. Canon Lewis, Ystrad, is announced to officiate at the services on Sunday, and the Rev. R. W. Evans, vicar of Gabalfa, on Tuesday.
