THE PEOPLE'S TRIBUTE.

THE PEOPLE'S TRIBUTE. THE PENALTY which Mr. Lloyd George has to pay for having reached, purely by his own merits, a position of such eminence, popularity and influence, is to be lampooned, villified, mis- represented by the lick-spittle Press maintained by and in the interests of wealth, monopoly, and reaction. Fair criticism of his policy and speeches would be welcomed by no one more heartily than by the Chancellor himself; but his opponents realise only too keenly that shafts of that kind would fail to nieroe his armour of justice and right, and therefore they must turn to that last resource of malignant vengeance- wilful misrepresentation and unscrupulous abuse. Hut these tactics are equally futile. His detractors are playing with a two-edged sword which will inevitably wound themselves more than the object at which it is directed. They are throwing a boomerang which must re- bound to their own hurt. Mr. Lloyd George is not the kind of man to quail before their attach to swerve from the path of duty in fear of their threats. On the contrary, he is fully capable of effectively replying to his slanderers, and of lay- nig bare their real motive, which is none other than to exploit for base ends the workers of this country. The idle rich and their journalistic flunkeys-a type not unknown in North Wales— knowing that they cannot convert the democracy to their way of thinking by means of fair argu- ment, resort to vulgar and ignorant abuse of the great leader who is so nobly fighting the people's cause. But they cannot deter Mr. Lloyd George b from pursuing the great object to which he has consecrated his life-the uplifting ot the masess of his fellow-countrymen. The more virulent the attacks upon his personal honour and integrity, the more determined is he to press forward towards the goal of his ambitions. And the hotter the furnace of abuse, the purer and clearer does his character shine forth. This is becoming more and more evident every day that the campaign of calumny continues. Speech after speech and deed after deed reveals ever more clearly how intense and unselfish is his zeal for the cause of progress. Not personal aggrandisement, but the welfare of the masses— that is the motive which stands out as the great aim and object of his brilliant political career. This fact was exhibited in a very striking and convincing manner in his recent speech at Crediton, when he dealt very faithfully with one 01 his journalistic detractors. He had been asked what right he had to speak at the City Temple as he did. He had, he said, the right every man in a free country had to discuss the social conditions of his time, and to express his opinion frankly and fearlessly about them. And," he proceeded, 1 claim another right. I claim this right to discuss them. I lived the life of the working class. I know their worries, their anxieties, their straits, and I am taunted that I am above them now. It is true I have managed to put myself above them through no merit of mv own, as I am reminded, but entirely through the evil genius which has always helped me nut being where I am, it is not merely my right, it is my duty, not to forget the men and women of my class—men and women who are still struggling on with unbroken htroism to overcome the difficulties which once haunted my h"lce. That duty I mean to discharge to the end, to the end, God helping me. There is no nobler passage in the history of British statemanship as expressed in British oratory. Happy the nation whose leaders are fined with such a spirit. Happy the nation which has produced so fine an example of what a democratic statesman should be, a veritable Tribune of the People. Mr. Lloyd George is engaged in a giant task, that of securing justice for the helpless and downcast; and although the obstacles are so great, the forces arrayed against him so exceedingly powerful, he will succeed. He will succeed because he relies not on his own rare gifts alone. He acknowledges and has faith in a higher Power, one of whose attributes is Justice.

JOTTINGS FROM NA TURE. OCTOBER 24th A few leaves still cling to the stunted Great Orme cotoneasters, but the ruddy berries are gone. The margins of some of the small, al- most globular leaves are withered, but their under-surface is still cottony to the touch and their upper-surface variously tinted, adding a pleasant touch of colour to the grey limestone ledges. It is difficult to say with certainty what become of the berries on attaining maturity so tew there are-and we think we can tell why- and so open, and often almost inaccessible, the positions in which the parent shrubs grow, that opportunities for keeping observations on the formation and destiny of the berries might be better. It is possible but not probable that they are eaten by birds in the autumn it is a simple matter to dislodge the berries, for but the slight- est contact with the finger will often suffice, and it is not at all improbable, I think, that, de- tached by heavy rains may be, they are caught by the gusts of wind and are whirled along the cliff-face, to root or rot elsewhere. Nature's methods of distributing its seeds are many, and the way in which those of the cotoneaster are distributed-for I am confident that they are diffused in this manner-is but analagous to that in which the seeds of the common avens and cleavers are conveyed to stations many yards, perhaps miles, from the spots where they were generated.

Llandudno Urban District Council. The monthly meeting cf the Llandudno I rban District Council was held on Fridav, the chair being occupied bv Mr. E. E. Bone. THE DESTRUCTOR WORKS. For some time past there had been complaint as to the inadequate combustion of the refuse at the destructor works, and full reports were now presented by the Electrical Engineer, Mr. H. Morton, of the works required to make the apparatus effectually destroy the largely in- creased quantity of material now to be dealt with. He proposed that the Council should install at the works plant for creating induced draught for the destructors, and also for the steam boilers at the adjoining electricity works. He recommended that the fan be 55 inches in diameter, direct coupled tb a variable speed motor, and have a capacity sufficient to provide draught for the combustion of 5.0001b. of coal burned per hour on 182 square feet of grate area, and from 3,001b. to 3,600lb, of refuse in the destructor. The Electricity Committee recommended the provision of the induced draught plant as re- commended by the Engineer, and that a loan of 1-324 be obtained for the purpose. Mr. J. M'Master contended that what was re- quired at the electricity and destructor works was a new and much larger chimney. The matter was referred to a Council meeting in committee.- TRUNK SEWER TO CRA1GYDON. It was decided immediately to proceed with the extension of the trunk sewer, &c., to Craigv- don, at a cost of £12,000. The Council has already agreed to new surface water sewer out- fall works being constructed to cost £ 8,000, making a total of over £21,000 now to be ex- pended on sewerage works. FIRE EXTINGUISHING PLANT. On the recommendation of the By-Wavs Com- mittee, the Council resolved to purchase a new combined horse escape and chemical fire engine at a cost of £ '270. Mr. M'Master complained that the Insurance Companies, who were drawing huge profit out of Llandudno, refused to contribute towards the cost of the fire-extinguishing apparatus. Mr. Sarson said the new escape was essential to reach the top storeys of the principal hotels. A POLICE PROPOSAL REJECTED. A long discussion occurred on the proposal to hand over to the Carnarvonshire Joint Police Committee a portion of the public market hall and yard for the new police buildings, and by a substantial majority it was defeated. The Chairman regretted that the Joint Police Committee ignored the Council in the selection of a site. THE CASE OF PENRHYNSIDE. A request from the Parish Council of Penrhyn that a deputation should be appointed to confer with them as to a proposal to include the parish within the t-rban District of Llandudno, was considered. A committee of six members was elected to meet the Parish Council on the ma- ter. Penrhyn comprises the eastern side of the Little Orme's Head and of the Gloddaeth Hills. as well as a portion of the valley beyond in the direction of Llandrillo-vn-Rhos. Part of the Rhos-on-Sea golf links is in Penrhyn parish, as well as the villages of Penrhyn Bay and Pen- rhynside. The latter, situated on the top of the hill near the Little Orme, is a populous working-class settlement, and owing to its height above sea level and its position at the extreme end of one of the Cowlyd distributing mains, has been suffering from an unsatisfac- tory water supply for many years. The con- struction of a necessary but expensive road to the village and the sewerage, water supply mains, &c., have burdened the rates of the parish heavily for the past ten years, and even now the water supply is being largely derived from the Llandudno mains. At present Pen- rhyn is in the area of the Conwav Rural Dis- trict Council.

Dolwyddelen and its Water Supply. LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD INQUIRY. On Thursday afternoon Mr. A. A. G. Malet, M. Inst. C.E., conducted an inquiry on behalf of the Local Government Board at the Assembly Room, Dolwyddelen, into the application of the Geirionydd Rural District Council for sanction to borrow 12,600 tor the purpose of providing a water supply for this rising inland resort and the construction of a reservoir with a holding capacity of 3,267,000 gallons. The inquiry, which was advertised to open at 10.30 a.m., was adjourned until 2 p.m., when the large hall was almost full of ratepayers, who took considerable interest in the proceedings. The following appeared in support of the ap- plicatioii Messrs D. G. Jones and W. Evans (re- presenting the Geinonydd Council) T. Hughes KClerk of the Council) Dr. Travis, Medical Officer of Health; T. Griffith, Engineer; E. Evans, County Surveyor H. P. Evans, District Surveyor, and the members of the Dolwvddelen Parish Council. Mr. R. O. Davies opposed on behalf of Lord Penrhyn, Prince Llewelvn Quarry Company, Messrs. W. E. Ellis, H. H. Bell, J. S. Foster, O. E Parry, and M. Stobart. The Inspector having taken his seat, Mr. T. Lloyd Jones, of Liverpool, asked for a further adjournment of the inquiry until 7.30 p.m., to enable more ratepayers to attend. The Inspector jegretted that he could not do so. He had adjourned the inquiry from 10.30 a.m. to 2 p.m., as Mr. R O. Davies could not be present. Mr. Lloyd Tones contended that inasmuch as the Inspector had studied the convenience of an individual, he ought to consider the convenience of the ratepayers generally, most of whom were quarrymen, who could not attend until 7.30 p.m. He would like to test the opinion of those present on the matter. The Inspector Xo, I cannot adjourn the in- quiry again. We must proceed with the business. Mr. T. Hughes, Clerk to the Geiriom-dd Coun- cil, gave evidence that the population of the parish was 1,112, population of the area con- cerned 500, rateable value r.272, total rates, 6s. 2d. in the £ The application was for sanc- tion to borrow [2,600 at 3^ per cent. per an- 2 num for 30 years. There were no outstanding debts. Mr. E. Evans (County Surveyor; said that he had prepared the plans and estimates of the scheme for the Engineer. The gathering ground was high up on the slopes of Moel Siabod moun- tain, at an altitude ranging from 1,200 to 2,600 feet, and free from dwelling-houses, cultivated land and other sources of pollution. The area of the gathering ground was 320 acres, the rain- fall he had put down at go inches a year, al- though he had no doubt it was much more, and after allowing for percolation and evaporation for a period of three consecutive years, he was of opinion that the average rainfall would be 58 inches, which was equal to 421,080,000 gallons a year in the watershed. It was intended to store a proportion of the rainfall, with a cap- acity of 3,267,000 gallons. This was sufficient to supply the population of the village for a period of 326 days from the reserve. the Surveyor and the Pmgineer were examined at great length by Mr. R. O. Davies relative to the necessity of acquiring such an expensive re- servoir, estimated to cost £ 1,200, and also in re- gard to the watershed, urging that Diweinydd Lake would be a cheaper source. Mr. Foster, also for the opposition, criticised the proposed watershed, and submitted several other schemes which. he alleged, would prove far less costly. Mr. R. 0. Davies declared that his clients were not against the village being supplied with a proper supply of water, but they objected to the scheme, as it was unnecessarily expensive. The inquiry then closed.

II Mr. Lloyd-George Replies to an Attack I rIlE CHAVCELI OR AS A FINANCIER. I AN ENGLISH EDITOR S PREDICTION. Mr. Lloyd George on Saturday accompanied Mrs. George on her visit to Crediton to open a bazaar in aid of the Liberal Club .extension fund. and delivered a speech in reply to the presentation to him, on behalf of two hundred old-age pensioners, of a letter-weight com- posed of Dartmoor granite. Mr. George said there was nothing he was more indebted to the Prime Minister for than that he had given him the opportunity of being the instrument of carrying through that great and beneficent measure which gave eight hun- dred thousand poor old people 5s. a week. By January there would be a million. (Cheers.) The taint of poverty would be removed. There were only two hundred and sixty thousand old people in receipt of parish relief, but the Pen- sion Act revealed that there was an enormouf mass of old people who suffered privation rather than face what they regarded as the degradation of the workhouse. Well, they had come to their rescue. They had unbolted the bars of the workhouse for them and by January 1st the rest would have joined. It was not mere- ly that old people after a life of toil were suffer- ing, but there was something more than that. There was the sense the old folk had that they were a burden on their families. That was a greater weight than poverty to them. That they felt no longer now. The old people sitting at the corner of the hearth in the homes of their children were paying guests now. (Cheers. 1 The old-age pensioner was the gentleman of the family: the old lady was the lady of the house- hold. That was a great change, and a million of them had rejoicings in their hearts to-day. I thank God, said the Chancellor, that I had a share in it. MONEY COMING IN. Something had been said, he went on, to the effect that this could not be done without im- posing a burden on others. But what, he asked, was that burden? There had been a great out- cry, but what did it all mean They knew no man paid any income-tax in this country until, at any rate, he earned over [3 a week, and therefore there was no charge upon the need of anybody. (Cheers. I He did not increase the income tax in respect of any man s earnings until he earned nearly [40 a week. Then he had to pay 2d. extra. There was another set of people who earned [100 a week and over. He thought they could stand another 6d. Was that really too much for them to contribute to re- lieve the sufferings of a million fellow-citizen neighbours who had not been so lucky in life, They ought to be very pleased to be able to do so. But of every pound extra which he raised by his Budget ten shillings went for Dread- noughts. {Shame.) Well, who clamoured for. them? The very people who protested against paving for them. (Cheers.) The other ten shillings went to raise from the slough of de- spair the poor old people of whom he had been speaking. (Cheers.) It also went towards the great scheme of insurance which they were pre- paring now, and which he hoped to launch next year, to keep the unemployed from starving and to support the worker broken down in health. All that they hoped to launch next year. Who was so mean as to grumble at contributing to such objects? He did not believe, indeed, there would be any real attempt to upset the finance of the Budget. It had been a success. Money was coming in better than he even expected. (Applause.) AN EDITOR S ATTACK. Proceeding, Mr. Lloyd George said he had, on the whole, no reason to complain of the reception by the Tory press of his recent speech at the City Temple. There was one exception. He found that day an exceedingly bitter attack on him in the Spectator." The Specta- tor:" said Mr. Lloyd George, is edited by an exceedingly pretentious, pompous and futile person. I recollect very well that he predicted at the beginning of this year that I would have a deficit of [16,000,000. In fact, the editor of the Spectator' proved it—(laughter),—but so far from there being a deficit of sixteen millions I had a substantial surplus. The editor of the Spectator turned round and abused me, and said that that proved I was a most incompetent financier." (Loud laughter.) The Spectator complained that his contrast between wanton wealth and abject poverty had been done be- fore Well, was nobody to bp allowed to utter commonplaces except the editor of the Spec- tator "? He admitted that few had the power of rendering commonplaces harmless by making them uninteresting like the Spectator." Why did not the editor address his lectures on thrift to the idle rich, whose exisence he admitted? That was not the way to sell the" Spectator." (Laughter.) He would be the last to deprecate thrift, but when he saw a gentleman like this taunting the working classes because they 9pent money on football matches and going to music-halls, he said it was incredibly mean. He would like to say to the editor of that organ of the wealthy that a working man in a whole lifetime would not spend as much in football and music-halls as many a rich man would spend on a single night's entertainment. If he denounced the worker for the one, why not a word about the other? (Cheers.) The Spectator" asked him what right he had to speak at the City Temple as he did. Well. he had the right every man in a free country had to discuss the social con- ditions of his time, and to express his opinion frankly and fearlessly about them. "And." he said, I claim another right. I claim this right to discuss them. I lived the life of the working class. I know their worries, their anxieties, their straits, and the editor of the Spectator taunts me that I am above them now. It is true I have managed to put myself above them through no merit of my own, as he reminds me, but entirely through the evil genius which has always helped me. (Laughter.) But being where 1 am, it is not merely my right. it is my duty, not to forget the men and women of my class—(loud cheers),—men and women who are still struggling on with unbroken hero- ism to overcome the difficulties which once haunted my home. (Loud cheers.) That duty I mean to discharge to the end. God helping me. (Loud and prolonged cheers.)

A Llandudno Hotel Keeper's Claim. ALLEGED DAMAGE TO FURNITURE. Before Judge Moss, at Llandudno County Court, on Thursday. Wilfred Gauntlett, pro- prietor of the Marine Hotel, Llandudno. sued the Rev. Allen John Swainson, of Forest Row, and Mr. Henry jol-n Swainson, executors of the late Rev. Mr. Swainson, for damages, &c. Mr. Hailmark (Messrs. Henderson and Hall- mark) appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Ernest E. Bone was for the defendant. Mr. Hallmark stated that the claim was for damages, done to the furniture in a bedroom in the hotel, caused at the time of the illness and death of the Rev. Mr. Swainson, who was a guest at the hotel. On the 12th November last, the late rev. gentleman, accompanied by a nurse, occupied rooms at the hotel. Mr. Swain- son died on the 4th December from internal hemorrhage, the results of which had stained bed clothes, Arc. Miss Jesse Cripps, manageress at the Hotel, gave evidence as to the damage, and stated that things in the room of the late rev. gentleman were not left as she considered they ought to be. There were stains from medicine bottles on the dressing table, and the carpet was also stained. Mr. Bone said the claim of £ 11 3s. 6d. was a preposterous one. The Judge remaiked that the £ 2 paid into Court was sufficient, and he gave judgment for that amount.
