DENBIGHSHIRE RATES. ] (MEETING OF PROTEST AT L LAN FAIR T.H. "RECKLESS" AND SENSELESS" WASTE OF PUBLIC MONEY. Colonel Sandbach, J.P., to-day week, presided over a crowded meeting of rate- payers, at Llanfairtalhaiarn Council School, ccn- vencd for the purpose of protesting against the continued increase in the county rates. The Chairman was supported by the Hon. L. A. Brodrick, Mrs Brcdrick, Messrs Thomas Owen, C.C., J. Jones, C.C., D. Mae. Nicoll, C'.C., and Mr Sam Thompson, the Unionist candidate for the division. The Chairman expressed his pleasure that so many important ratepayers had responded and ir taken advantage of the occasion to express their indignation at the continued and enormous m- crease in the rates (applause). He then read a letter from Colonel Wynne regretting his in- ability to be present, and expressing his sym- pathy with the object of the meeting. The Chairman remarked that he intended to refer particularly to the position of affairs in the parish of Llanfairtalhaiarn. Through the courtesy of the managers of the Abergele Grouped Schools, they were enjoying the privilege of utilising for their meeting one of the many monuments to the County Council's extravagance (hear, bear). The school looked beautiful outside. It was embel- lished with dressed stone, towering in pinacles and towers (laughter). The cost of this unneces- sary addition would fall half on the parish and half on the general rate of the county, and would mean an increase in the local rate of from a Id to 2d in the £ ("Shame"). But it should be borne in mind that if these luxuries are indulged in at Llanfairtalhaiarn, it would re- sult in a precedent, and soon every village and hamlet all over the county would demand an extension of their school premises, with the in- evitable result that the general rate would rise out of all proportion (cheers). THE LOCAL POSITION. The ratea in the parish of Llanfairtalhaiarn in 1903 were 3s 2d in the L, while to- day they amounted to 5s in the £ ("Shame). The half yearly demand note specified the fact that it was for 2s 6d in the E, but the ratepayers should remember that it was for six months only, and that it was double that amount in twelve months. It would be seen that the rates had thus increased by Is lOd in the £ in five years. Yet, this does not include a halfpenny towards the new school buildings, which cost £1800, or the new water scheme, which was estimated to cost E2000-a total of £ 3800. They were told, continued the speaker, that the money to carry out these schemes could be borrowed, but they should re- member that they would have to pay an instal- ment of the loan and interest annually, which meant from £ 180 to JE200. A penny rate in the parish produced L18, so that it would mean at least an additional lOd to the rates, and next year's rates would amount to 5s lOd—("Shame") which was equal to that of the big cities of England. I don't like it, continued the speaker. Do you? (cries of "No"). There is an interesting little book issued by the St. Asaph Union, termed the Blue Book, and I intend to refer to some of the items of expenditure in it to enable you to see the rapid rise which has taken place in the rates The expenditure has risen from Bl.5,000 in 1899 to L26,700 in 1908, or nearly double in ten years. This is a fact which should be con- sidered seriously. So let U3 analvse the items of expenditure. The maintenance of in-door pau- pers increased from Liloo to £ 1500, out-relief from £ 5400 to £ 6200, lunatics from JE1100 to £ 1500, common charges from £ 1900 to £ 3000, while the county rate has increased from £ 5200 to £ 14,400 ("Shame"). The addition was prin- cipally due to the enormous expenditure on main roads, county education, and salaries. As a member of the Education Committee, I can speak from experience. Last year, it was esti- mated that a 5d rate would cover the six months' expenditure, but by the end of that period it was discovered that the Finance Committee had madG a miscalculation, and that an additional Id would have to be provided, so the rate was in- creased to 6d in the £ for the following six months, or a total of lid in the £ on education ("hlmmc ). The extra penny was attributed to the mciease in salaries, and the falling off in the seiiool attendance for various reasons, which had the effect of levelling the Government grants. We should remember that the rates are not the only available source of revenue. La-;t year, the Government decided to grant £ 100.000 for the purpose of erecting new schools all over the country in the single school areas. The Denbighshire Education Committee, with the idea of getting as much as possible of the grant, submitted plans of twelve new schools to the Board of Education, but the number was sub- sequently reduced to seven, as the Board of Education refused to approve of the nlans of the remainder on the. ground that L THE SCHOOLS WERE NOT REQUIRED. One new school has just been opened at Tanv- fron, Llansannan, with a flourish of trumpets, Sir tleiooit Roberts boing the chief actor in the function (laughter). This particular school will not cost much, as the expenditure was partlv coy cred by the grant, but in other instances it is different. The County Architect was instructed to draw out plans of new schools, and no doubt he is an expert at, his work, but, as he ii sup- posed to devote his whole time to his duties, he is not entitled to extra remuneration for the work (appiausc). However, the Education Com- mittee, last spring, received a suggestion from the Finance Committee to allow a special grant of JE250 for the work ("Shame"). Sir Foster Cunliffe and himself (the speaker) had spoken against the resolution, and moved an amendment with the result that the grant was reduced toNElOO (loud applause). Here at Llanfair they had erected a school, when it was not required, as they had no intention to shut. up the old school (loud applause). This unnecessary expenditure had also been incurred ebewhere, and not only in the case of Church Schools, but also in Council Schools. They were now erecting a new school at Nant-y-Rhiw, andI yet the Nebo School was in existence. It was row intimated that the Nebo School would be shut up after Christmas. The farmers and others at Nebo had contributed largely towards the erection of the school there, but their self- sacrifice was now of no avail ("Shame"). An- other proposition by this precious Education Committee was to erect a new school at Llan- ariiion. A sub-committee, of which he (the speaker) was a member, had been appointed to hold an inquiry, but it had not yet met. Half the parish were against the proposition. At the most no more than 38 children would be avail- able to attend the school. It was to be erected a few hundred yards of the borders of Flint, and it was expected by the committee that over 40 children would cross the border in order to attend the school, but on inquiry, he found tnat only twelve lived within two miles of the border. The question of OFFICIALS' SALARIES was an important one. The County Council was increasing the number of its officials almost daily. Eno-r Act was an excuse for a new official. NA-lion the Small Holding's' Act came inio force, the members of the County Councils were re- quested to explain its provisions to their con- stituents, but they did not care for the work with the result that an official was appointed which meant an expenditure of £ 300 a year, whose duty was just to explain an Act of Par- Lament ("Shame"). He observed in the St. Asaph Union Blue Book that the Assistant Overseer for the parish of Llanfairtalhaiarn received a ealarv of £ 37 a year, and also £ 16, to be in- creased to £ 13 per annum, for preparing the list of voters, etc. He (the speaker) did not suggest that he was not worth the money, but the rate- payers should see for themselves whether they were getting full value for their monev, as he expected they did. At Abergele, the Assistant Overseer was paid altogether F,322 10s, which was a considerable salary. He hoped the rate- payers got full value for it. In regard to the County Council s forestry scheme, he (the speaker) was as keen as anv m»n on fo~V3trv but it was not right that the expense attached to such a scheme should fall upon the rate- payers (hear, hear). The object was to find out what species of trees would grow in certain dis- tricts, and how long it. took for them to attain a certain size, and the best method of planting. He contended that the landlords of North Wales were perfectly able to carry out the scheme at their own expense as they already had done in many parts of Wales (loud applause). Other monuments to the extravagance of th° Courcil were the fine buildings at Colwyn Bay Li Ruthin. The remedy lay in the ratepayers' own T,VWa1. YG7 Wel1 to sPeak'to them, but the difficulty was to arouse them to do tKa.V duties. Most of them had votes. Let them ex- erase their privileges when the opportunity came to stop the reckless extravagance. It was important, even in the case of the Parish Coun- cil that they all voted, for the members were empowered to levy a 6d rate. They should also vote in District Council elections, as the mem- bers enjoyed great spending powers, and let them be certain to vote in County Council etectioM. I congratulate you, continued the speaker, on 1 having elected such an excellent member as Mr Owen to represent you on the County Council- (loud applause),—who, with the minority, has raised his voice against reckless expenditure, and the wild schemes of the Council. Be sure to vote in Parliamentary elections, and remember that the chief offenders, who have eclipsed all others in the matter of extravagance, are the present Government (applause). Whatever dig- nity the candidate desires to attain, remember present Government (applause). Whatever dig- nity the candidate desires to attain, remember to secure his guarantee to uphold economy, com- bined with efficiency (loud applause). The Chairman then read the following resolu- tion :—"That this meeting of ratepayers of Den- bighshire records its emphatic protest against the continual increase in the rates, and cat's upon she County Council to carefully revise their administrative charges, and demands the etc rose of drastic economy in all branches of ctpe.idi- ture." "A SENSELESS WASTE." Mr Albert Hughes, Llannvst, having read the resolution in the vernacular, welcomed the iai :es to the meeting, and proceeded to say that the statistical abstract for 1906 showed tl.at the County Council's indebtedness amounted to £ 564 millions, or an increase of £ 371 millions JE564 millions, or an increase of JE571 millions since 1894. Mr Post, in his report to trie Con- way Board of Guardians showed that the expenditure incurred by that body had in- creased from JE5110 in 1897 to £ 22,922, or an increase of nearly F,20,000 in ten years (cries of "Shame"). The question was: did they get value for their money? ("No, no"). Mr Lloyd George, in opening a new school at Criccieth, the other day, said "Never ji- Ind the rates: we must have education what- ever it costs." What did Mr Lloyd George care sc long as he enjoyed a salary of JS5000 a J Dr" I The time was rapidly approaching when the country would be in a state of bankruptcy, and not until then would the fanatics now at tho helm cease from their senseless waste of the rate- payers' money (loud applause). NOT SCHOOLS. BUT PALACES. Mr Pierce, Aborgele, in supporting tho resj'u iLu, dcr.ied that the Guardians of Abergj e v.tre responsible for the increased rates. When the County Council calls arrived the members were astounded at their magnitude. Although it was termed the poor rate, th-e poor did not receive a tithe of it. The buildings now in course of erection were not schools, but palaces, and what surprised him was that the ratepayers kept so silent over it (cheers). If they did not unite and promote a crusade against such rcck- less expenditure, it would go on increasing. They, as voters, had the power to put a stop to it. It was not a party question, but one of the pocket (applause). lie appealed to them to do their duty and put a stop to that reign of de- struction before they fell victims to their own lack of insight. Salaries had been increased to the amount of £5000, and new officials were created daily. You are not men, said the speaker, in conclusion, if you do not rise in your might and fight against this mad extravagance (loud applause). Mr T Owen said the Welshman bore his troubles in silence, not like the Englishman, with the result that shortly the loads would be too heavy to carry. If they did not rise now and stop the existing extravagance, they would all starve (hear, hear). Mr Williams drew attention to the enormous amount of money expended on the roads, and said that instead of having the stones prepared by machinery and crushed into dust, they ought to be broken by hand, by the unemployed (ap- plause). Not only would this relieve the poor, but in that way the stone's would be of far more value on the road (applause). Mr Roberts, Llangerniew, affirmed that two- thirds of the "stuff" placed on the roads was pure wa.ste. Mr Albert Hughes referred to his action on the Llanrwst Urban District Council, with a view to procuring stones from a local quarry for tho unemployed to break, instead of ordering them from Pemnaemnawr (applause). COSTLY EXPLANATIONS. The Hon. L. A. Brodrick, in seconding the resolution, referred to the new buildings at Col- wyn Bay as a proof of reckless extravagance. It was high time to retrench, as expenditure was increasing in every direction. It was useless to exercise economy in private affairs when those at the head of public bodies spent money so recklessly. There was as much necessity for prudence in public administration as in private affairs (applause). In private matters a man said, "I should like to have it. but I can't afford it." The same principle should be ob- served in public affairs (!oud cheers). Colonel Sandbach had referred 10 the Small Holdings Act, and the expense attached to it. He (the speaker) contended that an Act of Parliament which necessitated an outlay of J3500 to explain it, was not worth the paper it was printed on (loud applause). Mr J. Jones said he was an unfortunate mem- ber of the County Council, which the speakers had pulled to pieces (laughter). He quite agreed t fp t the salaries were excessive, and that some of the new buildings were not required; but, ilk, Mr Owen, he was in the minority (loud cheers). They were continually electing new officers, arid inventing new offices. He expected shortly to see the navvy throw aside his spade ind rake, and appear in a gorgeous uniform covered with gold bangles, and armed v-th a LI)ai to pick up the grease dropped by the pacing motor cars (loud cheers and applause). The proposition having been put to the meet- ing. was unanimously adopted. On the motion of Mr Pierce, seconded by Mr Judson, a warm vote of thanks was accorded the Chairman and the other speakers. At the conclusion of the meeting, tflŒe pre- sent proceeded to the National School, where an excellent repast was provided bv the Hon. L. A. Brodrick and Mre Brodrick.

DISEASE GERMS ENTER NAKED BOUNDS. I ECZEMA SHEARS CUT Cfi SCALDED h!1M. A MASS OF SORES THAT ZAM-BUK Ai-CNE COULD EiSSD. An open cut or soro is like a magnet for at- tracting disease germs, and these minute living creatures, unless speedily. clucked, will poison, the fleshy tissues and work serious havoc. In this way Miss Mary Kerr, of New Buildings, Cope-street, Wolveriiair.nton, got itching, burn- ing eczema from a scalded arm. Zam-Buk, however, quickly destroyed the germs, and re- stored Miss Kerr's skin'to health. In conversation with a local reporter, Miss Kerr said:—"Twelve months ago, whilst work- ing as a core-maker in a Manchester foundry, I scalded my left arm through stumbling with a pan of boiling wajor. tas the injury seemed .to be doing well I hit off the bandages, exposing the raw flesh. The si; afterward* beu,¡n to itch and burn until I could scarcely bear the pain and irritation. Small waierv blhters cl Ion formed and spread up the arm. The doctor said it was eczema. lie was of opinion that I had either got some din in the wound or afterwards caught eczema thwvj-h u*in& Strange towels. Seven weeks later, the disease was worse than ever, and spread over my hand and arm to the elbow as if the Germs had entered* right into my system. Nothing that the doctor could do brought any relief, and the sore got deeper, and more obstinate. "I tried ordinary ointments, but the arm got worse still. I could scarcely sleep for the pain, and feared the disease spreading ail over me. "After I had eight months of agony, one of the girls at work told me what wonderful benefit her father got from Zam-Buk for a bad skin disease. I sent for a box of Zam-Buk, which I smeared over the sores and found very soothing. Afrer applying this rich balm I bandaged up with clean lint or rag. When I removed the bandages I was surprised at the improvement Zam-Buk had brought. The sores were lew angry, and I saw that Zam-Buk was drawing away the bad matter. "I continued the applications of Zam-Buk niglit and morning. alid my unn healed up beauti- fully. First the discharge stopped then tliQ sores scabbed over and dried up; finally failing I away and leaving a nice smooth skin. My cure v has caused quite a sensation amongst my fellow- workers, who all knew what a shocking arM I. had before I had used Zam-Buk. We are never without Zam-Buk now."

CONSERVATISM IN WEST DENBIGHSHIRE. ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING AT LLANFAIR- TALHAIARN. THE UNIONIST CANDIDATE HEARTILY WELCOMED. Mr T. Owen, C.C., presided over a crowded moeting at the Council Schoolroom, Lkuifair- talhaiarn, to-day week, when the Unionist can- didate, Mr Sam. Thompson, gave his views on Tariff Reform. He was supported by God. Sand- bach, J.P., the Hon. L A. Brodrick, Mrs Brodrick, and others. The Chairman remarked as there were so many speakers present he would refrain from taking up the time of the mooting. He then oalled upon Mr W. Roberts, of Ruthin, who said tha.t. as he occupied the position of farmer and voter in the division, ho was delighted to be preeent to do wh.1.t he could to assist the movement in favour of Tariff Reform. The outlook was ex- ceedingly dark, and a change in the fiscal policy of the country was essential (appiausc). Free ITro.,de was similar to the old paddle steamers; wUùl the paddle on one side was out of work, the other mig'ht be working well. However, the old ship at last had been shipwrecked on the rock of unemployment. Unless a change was adopted Britain would be-come one enormous workhouse. Liberals pridod themselves on being the "advocates of economy," yet the present GoverMment. had increased the salaries of two ministers by over £ 10,000. He was glad to find that the Unionist party in West Denbighshire had secured a candidate who was one of the people, a man who had laboured in the depths of the coal pit for his livelihood. He hoped Mr Thompson would be successful, and that his victory would resound from Llangollen to Llan- rwst (loud cheers). Mr Albert Hughes, Llanrwst, dealt with the question of Thrift Reform in a speech which occupied 25 minutes, his observations being re- peatedly cheered. CANDIDATE'S ENTHUSIASTIC RECEP- TION. Mr Sam. Thompson was accorded an excep- tionally warm reception, the ebeorin., lasting' several minutes. After a few preliminary re- marks, he iiaid the chief subject under discussion that night would be "Fiscal Reform" (applause). The numbeir of men out of employment in Britain at the pesent niome-nt wa, enormous, and the cost of keeping their souls and bodies to- gether was assuming huge proportions. Some of those men did not desire to work, but he in- tended to allude to those who were anxious to ar "secure it. During the first year of the present Government's existence a sum of £ 200,000 had been voted for the purpose of assisting the un- employed. A similar sum had been voted last year, while this year it had been increased to £ 300,000. Surely oomothing must be wrong somewhere honest workmen a.re thus de- barred from earning their livelihood. During the quarter ending September ia.'t the number of paupers had increased by 17,000, who alone wo-ra an additional burden ratepayers, while an enormous number were relieved fro the National Exchequer. The statement that Germany was suffering worse than England from lack of employment was untrue- Accord- ing- to the Trade Union reports, the number of unemployed last year was 1 to 2 per cert., while in Britain it was 5 per cent. In October last the number of unemployed in Germany was 3 per cent., while in Britain it had increased to 9 per cent. During a delate in the House of Li-r Tig a Commons recently Mr Kcir Hardie declare-d that there were 2 million ot men out of work, while a few days ago the German labour leader stated that the unemployed in Gormanv were about 400,000. The population of Germany was 62 millions, while that of Great Brtiain -was 44 millions, yet the nmnber of unemployed in Ger- many was net a quarter these in Britain. What was the reason ? It was palpable—the unfair foreign competition, especially in manufactured articles (loud applause). For instance, although our joiners and carpenters had no compeers abroad, yet under Free Trade the foroi'n artisan was securing the liün's "lare of the orders as their work was dumped in every village where a houre was Greeted, while our own wor km en were unable to secure employment (laughter). As illustrative of the ridiculous principle of Free Trade, he instanced a joiner out of employment at Llanfairtalnaaarn, wjio lOund one morning that it is necessary to repair his window frame or door, and who, instead of doing- the work himself, sent to Abergtele for a man to do the vcrh for him, a.ithougn he himself was out of work at the time. That was the principle of what Britain was doing under Free Trade (loud caeersi. Last year two millions of windows, doors, etc., were imported from abroad, al- though w-e could do the work a.t home far bet- ter (loud applause)- IIalf the value of these* ar- ticles went in wag-es to the foreigner. Is it f,jir I Dees it pay? asked the speaker arhid loud cries of "NO, NEVER." Does it pay to buy these article and thrust otix honest workmen on the rates. No, it is burning the candle at both ends (loud applause). Last year 31,000 tons for foreign slates were dumped in this country ("shame") yet there was no tangible reason for this suicidal policy, as they were but little cheaper than our own, but of far inferior quality (applause). The quarry- man lost his occupation, wdiile no one g'airied any advantage except perhaps the contractor and the merchant (loud cheers). Our opponents try to frighten you against Fiscal Reform by in- forming you that, a. tariff of s a quarter would be placed upon wheat. After all what does that mean ? Why, 2s upon every 400!bs. of wheat anrj foreign, flour (laughter). They contend also that such a small tariff would not benefit the agricultural community. You observe their in- consistency (laughter). Continuing, he said that although the tariff would be placed on wheat, th{l tariff on tea, coffee, cocoa, tobacco, etc., would be reduced to a minimum, so one fa.rthin.g rise in a sixpenny loaf would be several times reimbursed throug'h I the reduction in the price of wheat we cannot produce ourselves (cheers). This small tariff would be of advantage TO the farmer be- cause bran, "sharps'" and the ottal of wheat, so high in value to-day and increasing annually, would be much dbeapar when the wheat was produced at home. References tw..d been made bv Mr Hughes to the condition of the unem- ployed. In no industrial country in the world was the condition of labour so bad as here, and there was no evidence to prove that such a state of affairs existed anywiiere alse on earth. He would not say that even in Protectionist oountries there was not a certain nuihber of unemployed, but it was infinitesimal compared with that in this oounti»y. The United States of America W* the higfeeat protected country in the world, and the other day over the election of President the contest resolved itself into one between an extreme Protectionist and a Free Trader, but it resulted in t'ht, ierurn of the Piro- tectionist by an enormous majority. The Ameri- cans knew what was best for them—(hear, bea-r),- and the result of the election was conclusive evidence of the benefit derived by America by its adherence to protective principles (applause). There had been a period even in America -when the number of unemployed was large, but it was due to a financial crisis and industriaJ do- pression, and not to the system, of protection. Now things had changed, and wages were ris- ing. while Ibere there was no sign of a revival in trade, or that the burden of taxation was likely to lig-hten. It rather assumed a raosre serious aspect daily, and such a condition would prevail under our so-called Free Trade system (cheers). THE CHURCH AND EDUCATION. He had been ar-cuned Hy certain persona in West Denbighshire of a lack of sympathy with Welsh Nationalism. lie was in deep sympathy with all that was good for Wales (cheore). He did not believe it was in accordance with the traditions of Welsh Nationalism to attack the oldest institution in the country, but rather to defend it and maintain its traditional integrity (loud applause). The old Church cf Wales would have to be maintained intact fro/71 spoliation, so that she miglht have power to continue bar goc-a work, and be a blessing" to the country for a,g-es ufborn (loud cheers). As to the question of education, they should insist that the children should receive religious tuition in the day schools in accordance with the beliefs of their parents (che-ars). It would also be the highest form of Nationalism to insist upon .-ecuricg fair- play for their own country and !and in trading affairs, and it should form the first care of arty Government to secure the welfare of the people (cheers). It was the highest form of Nationalism to place our workmen in a position to earn a livelihood (checrs). He strongly advocated closer union between the Mother Country and mer Colonies (loud cheers). He appealed to those present to support and assist him to win the scat of West Denbighshire (shouts "We will" and applause). He did not ask them for sup- port as an individual, but yor the sake of the principles he advocated (cheers). OLD FASHIONED METHODS. The Hon. L. A Brodrick, in the course of a s^i-ort address, said the RadioaJ party were cling- mg to a policy which was only possible 60 years ago; they were still the disciple of the stage coach and the flint and steel (huehter). Sixty 3ears ago England was the great nianufal-tuxing centre of the world, and had no one to compete with her.
