THE TWO PROGRAMMES.

THE TWO PROGRAMMES. The manifestoes of the leaders of Govern- ment and Opposition respectively are now before the country; Mr Asquith's, in his speech delivered at the Albert Hall, on Fri- day last; and Mr Balfour's, in the address to the electors of the City of London, which was published, side by side with the Prime Minis- ter's speech, in the daily papers of the follow- ing day. The air is cleared. The issue is plain. And no elector who has taken the trouble to masteT the contents of these two pronouncements should have any doubt as to either the character or the importance of the choice which he will shortly be asked, as a voter, to make. In his speech at the Albert Hall, Mr Asquith gave out, with as good a grace as he could command, the policy which has been prescribed for him by Mr Churchill and Mr Lloyd George, and for them, in turn, by the Socialistic and anti-British "omnium- gatherum" to whose support they look for their continued enjoyment of office and power. Tho voice that declaimed it (from a sheaf of carefully typewritten pages) was the voice of a leader who has been superseded in all but title, but the hands that framed it were the hands of the twin-demagogues who sat upon either side of the Premier. Mr Asquith plain- ly spoke under the consciousness of the poverty of his party's constructive record during four years under what was once called "the strongest Government of modern days," with a "record" majority in the House of Commons. At the back of his mind there murii have been also a numbing sense of that fridesprea-d social and industrial disorganisa- tion which has been left in the track of the advance of Socialism. If the Goverr record in construction has been slight, been unexampled in destruction. The latter cannot be explained away. It is common knowledge. Its painful evidences thrust themselves on every hand. In the former Mr Asquith had, of course, his excuse. "The wicked Lords" are wholly and solely to blame for any discrepancy which exists between the extravagant promises of 1908 and the paltry achievements of 1909. Never can a Radical Minister have murmured more fervently che old Radical "Gratias"—"Thank God we have a House of Lords"than Mr Asquith, as be stepped on to the platform of the Albert Hall. But, if it rouses the cheers of packed Radica! assemblages, will the cry of "Down with the Lords" really beguile the country? We are certain that it will not. Mr Asquith talks as if the country had given him and his party Ao hints since 1906. What of the bye-electicus —a continued record of Unionist success, a continued testimony to the decline of con- fidence in the "majority of all the minori- ties?" Can we read into these results any- thing but commendation, sustained and un- broken, of every action, whether of revision or rejection, taken by the Lords in regard to Radical Bills? Mr Balfour brings the whole issue, as it now goes to the country for decision, to a point, in a few plain words at the outset of his address. Mr Asquith and his party, be declares, "hold that the House of Commons, no matter how elected or when elected, no matter what its relation to public opinion rot the moment, is to be the uncontrolled master of the futures of every class in the com- munity; and that to the community iU-tlf no appeal, even in the extremest cases, is to be allowed to lie." We are to understand, by the mouth of Mr Asquith, from Messrs Churchill and George, that a House of Com- mons returned on the cry of Chinese slavery, rt presents the mind of the nation on the question of Socialism. Such a convention, as Mr Balfour pointed out, becomes "not mere- ly absurd but perilous, when it is applied to questions of fundamental importance which have been but imperfectly discussed, which are perhaps but imperfectly understood, which deeply affect individual rights and social well-being." The right of the Upper House to originate Money Bills has never been claimed. Their right to amend Money Bills is not raised. But when finance ceases to be finance, and becomes the cloak for "a revolution for which the country has given no mandate," the House of Lords is indisput- ably defending the rights of the people in in- sisting that the people shall be consulted. The machinery of our Constitution may be capable of improvement. But only by this agency, as it exists to-day, can the principles of true democracy be vindicated against the "Single Chamber conspiracy." For years, Mr Asquith and his party have been talking of arraigning the Peers before the judgment of the country. Problems of Empire, of trade, of national defence (and on the Navy, Mr Asquith said not one word), and of social re- form, meet us, as Mr Balfour said, "in forms not dreamed of a few years since." And now, after all the shouting, it has been left for the Lords at this crisis to drag a discredited Ministry to the tribunal of final appeal. But, the real issue for the electors is not the question of the House of Lords at all. It has not escaped notice that the great bulk of Radical speeches, whether Ministerial or non-official, is taken up with ridiculing and denouncing the House of Lords. Mr Church- ill goes to Lancashire, where the cotton- workers have been on short time and diminished wages for many months, and vhsre these painful conditions are going to be prolonged at least until the end of Febru- ary, and he treats his audiences to the com- monest platform rant about the Upper Cham- ber. Now, from the point of view of employ- ment, what working man would be better off, what poor victim of unemployment would get the work he wants, if the House of Lords were destroyed to-morrow? The Radicals know very well that the working men have thought deeply on this question of fiscal reform. What on earth would be the good of small holdings until the small holder was protected in some degree from the invasion of cheap foreign produce? What is the use of labour ex- changes if there is no labour to exchange? Wha.t is the use of unemployment insurance schemes unless some attempt is made to in- crease the work and wages available? Sir Herbert Roberts, on Friday, might have been expected to tell his audience something about this all-important subject; but he judiciously left it alone. Mr Thompson, who is fighting splendidly on behalf of the party who are desirous of bringing into force a policy which will bring unemployment within manageable proportion, spoke at Eglwysbach and Glan Conway this week, and exposed the deplor- able results which would ensue if the Chan- cellor's Budget ever became the law of the land.

Llanrwst Council and Protection. A few months ago the Llanrwst Urban Council found that local shopkeepers were affected by the competition of "foreign" salesmen in the market place, and they de- cided to protect them by taxing the "foreign- ers." The principle of Protection thereby acted upon appears to have proved beneficial, and the Council resolved at their last meeting to carry it further. Hitherto, they have been purchasing their road metalling very largely from the Board of Guardians, the stones being cut by the casual inmates of the Llanrwst Workhouse. On Friday, tiacy unanimously agreed to obtain the supply now necessary from a local quarry, because all the men em- ployed upon their production were local labourers. The Protectionist theory is mak- ing practical progress at Llanrwst, and 9.8 the majority of the Council are Liberals the fact is all the more interesting.

LADY ANGLESEY'S WEDDING. Lady Anglesey made a charming picture when she married Mr John Gilliat, on Satur- day, in her diaphanous draperies of pale star sapphire blue, with metallic embroideries. In her arms she clasped a bunch of Madonna lilies, and on her red-gold hair was a Vene- tian cap of dull metallic cord net, with pale sapphires. A long pearl rope, with diamond tassels, was twisted about her neck, and she wore a star sapphire and diamond brooch. The little Church of the Assumption, War- wick-street, was a mass of feathery palms and white flowers, and garlands hung from all the balconies and entwined the pillars. There was only a very small company present, one or two near relatives and a few intimate friends, and there w..s no reception after the wedding, friends having been invited to view the presents the day before. Lord Berkeley Paget g*ave his niece away, and the bride- groom was attended by Captain Reginald Fellowes as best man. Lord Anglesey was sitting with his mother, Lady Alexander Paget, and Lord Herbert and Lady Beatrice Herbert, the latter wearing pastel blue feathers in her hat, with a pinky grey dress. Mrs Rupert Beckett was near by, and with Lady Berkeley Paget came Miss Chetwynd. Minna Lady Anglesey in black and white, Lady Florence Willoughby in grenat cloth, Mrs Fletcher Robinson, Miss Piers, Mrs Gilliat and her two daughters, Mrs Leslie, Miss Skipwith, and Mr Frank Gilliat were also present. While the guests were assembling, the organist played "Salut d'Amour," followed by a "Chant sans Par- oles." Father Bernard Vaughan and Father Pownall officiated at the ceremony, which took place at noon.

MUSICAL NOTES, By Petty Edwards, Mu*. Bac. (Pedy Ål}. MR F. GURNEY BARIsfETT.

He was born near Manchester, on May 28 th, 1882, ancl ecmrit-nced the sturdy of pianoforte playing at the age of seven. Lika many before ilizn, it was not origi- caRy intended1 that ho should adopt a musical career. It was proposed that he should join a branch of one of the establishments of the "Old lady of ThroadThe Stlt." but ha was not so enamoured: of the rustle of bank-notes and the chink of golden sovereigns as of the syren- like charm of "notes" with which that of bank- notes cannot compare-to cne who hath music in hie eoo1! His first in WE .lea was at Rhyl, whero he axjfeed as organist of Christ Church, and he piayod at several other churches in the town oc- casionally. On going to Colwyn Bay in 105 he was appointed orgamiat of Nan tygly n road Wes- loyan Church, a position which he resigned about 18 months. later. In 1907 he formed' the Colwyn Bay Philharmonic Society, which gave a suooesa- fvil performance of Van Bree's "St. Cecilia's Day," in the Pier Pavilion, in the course of the following March- "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast" was next rehearsed, and' the work had been al- most mastered when the National Eisteddfodi (1910) Choir was formed, and it was wigetl-y de- cided to adjourn rehearsals until after the great festival. I hope the members rally round Mr Barnett in due time, as, evidently, great tilings may ba expected from the Philharmonic Society. Mr Harnett also trained the chorus for tho first production of "H.M.S. Pinafore," which has been described as "the most successful cpera yet produced in Colwyn Bay." Last winter saw the formation of the Ladies' Choir, wliiich has given a concert in the Pier Pavilion- Not oni!v does Mr Barnett conduct that choir, but he is the present conductor of the Amateur Orchestra, which now numbers 24 play- ers. What with teaching and conducting, Mr Barnett must, be a busy ma.n; and his sound musical training ehiciuid prove of great benefit to ail students and organisations' under hi care. lie stacked1 in London, under Mr R- J.

All good' luck trx h:m NATIONALISM IN MUSIC. Sometime ago I read a short article upon this subject, written;, I beiieve, by an American- The wnter maintained that nationalism in music was a hindrance to the development of art. If this were trae, it would tend to discourage us in our search for fo'lk-songs. According to the writer alluded to, those distinguishing features wbieh belong to the songs of various nations should be discouraged, even ignored. This, of course, could oraly bo done by ceasing to use such songs al- 1 together. Apparently art must not acknowledge the peculiarities of different peoples things which are so evident in their national music. lhydn expressed the view that music knows no language but its own; but I am sure ho wouid not have discountenanced the use of music to convey the fienitments of variou", nations in a simple way, such as we found in their collections. In fact, he arranged some Wel-jh national airs- muit remember that in their national songs different nations have sung in early times (1) ac- cording to the extent of their knowledge of music, (2) according to the manner in which the simple words called' for expression in music. If that music is true to its purpose, and beautiful —as we well know much national music is—not only does it deserve to live, but it must live. It is not needful here to argue about the sur- vival of the fittest. I acknowledge the truth of that theory; but it must be applied in music to I'c "national'' like other songs. The fittest in national songs shall and will live, like the fittest in other forms of music or in anything else. We should encourage nationalism in music, provided' such music is true and beautiful, on patriotio grounds. If we, as Welsh men and women, love our country we must cherish its national songs above all others, but we need' not ignore others, nor the other, higher, forms of music both vocal and instrumental- A NEW RIIYL CHOIR. I notice Mr B. Wadaworth has formed a mixed voioo choir in Rhyl. The object is to compete at the Boxing Day Eisteddfod only; but it is to bo hoped it will be successful, and that Mr Wads- worth may therefore be induced to keep it op. Readers know how successful he has been with his children's choir both at eisteddfcdau and at conoerts. I bopo the formation cf this new chcilr dce>3 not mean tho disbanding of the child- ren's choir! That would be a pity. AN OLD WELSH SINGER. In the MaryJebonio Workhouse, London, there is an old Welshman named Joe Jones. His father fought at Waterloo. He himself went off to sea as a lad, and sailed round the world before the mast in a merchant vessel. Later on, in 1854, he sailed for tho Baltic, and afterwards took part, as a member of the Naval Brigade, in the storming of Sebastopol. His cheery romances round the Sebastopcl camp fires have, as an in- terviewer said, be-en the prelude to a drea.ry old age for Jce Jones, for after some years of em- ployment as a London road-sweeper he has been driven off the streets by the competition of "them Irorse-broo-ms." Yet neither old age nor penury, nor the hope- JeeKn-c&3 of bs proispects can keep 'him from singing. Ho sings when he gets up in the morn- ing; whemhe retires to rest; when he goes about the little job? that are given him to do by the workhouse authorities', and he gives pleasure to the poor c.'d J|Ik who hear him. One of h's favourite songs dbtes from hi? Seb- astopcl! experience. It is a. military song, with a nlaive jollity of its own Here is the first verse, "rolled out by oM Joe with a voice that went echoing with an almost uncsnny effect over the s:lerct workhou.se precincts:"—" As I w afi a walking by picket-house ravine, I met a fair lady an fair,as any queen; I gave hc;r a kiss, and she said I was no bono. Then we sat- us down together on a great' mo&sv stone, With a F6!-de-rol-Tcro Tho folksong collector, Mr Ceciil Shares says he has secured some of the best songs in has col- n-e-,peciallv sailors' "chanteys" at the Mary-iebono Workhou.se. Joe Jones has brought several there; and, as a writer states, although there may not bo much art, poetry, or idealism about thceo genuine tongs -cif the suiter, the soldier, and the labourer, they have their value all tho same even beyond bringing bright memories to a workhouse ward on a dull Novem- ber day! COLOUR AND SOUND. A correspondent writes in an interesting man- ner upon this subject- He says he can give an example of sound suggesting colour to a child. A little American girl whom he knew, on hear- ing a man apoaking in a deep voice, ked, "Who is speaking in that dark brown voice?" Most cl Chopin's music suggests to him mys- terious landscapes of dull greens and greys, with gloomy trees. One of his ballads, however, sug- gest a. gorgeous sunset, wiM himg, and pine trees, and a certain nocturne of has depicts to the cor- respondent's mind a dreary stretch of sea coast in twilight. He has heard that this nocturne was supposed to represent a boa.t on the water. He adds: "GreAg's music is, to me, fufl of ooJour, mostly sunset hues.

THE KING AT EATON HALL ViSIT TO LADY OLIVIA FITZPATRiCX, The King aarived at Chester on Monday after- noon on a V i.it to the Duke of Westminster at Eaton H&iL Replying_ to an address presented by tho Mayor, his, Majesty said that-fee was pleased that his visit afforded him an opportunity of pre- senting colours to the 5th, 6tll and 7th Battalions of the Cheshire Regiment. Enrolment of these fine bodies affordad tho men of Cheshire a noble opportunity of showing that their patriotism had not diminished in time of peace. The Kins was losudly cheered as he motored through the city to Eaton. At Eaton, his Majesty was welcomed by the Duchess of Westminster, and a large party, which included the Prince and. Princess of Plcss. On account of the funeriU. of Princess Walde- I mar, of Denmark, sister-in-law cf the Queen, the King did not go cut shooting on Tuesday, as had been arranged, but spent the day quietly at Eaton. The following party left the Ilail in motor- cars shortly after half-past ten to shoot over the Bretton and Balderton beats: The Duke of Westminster, the Duke of Alba, the Earl of Essex, th-a Eari of Shaftesbury, the Hon- G. KeJ, Colon el Hoiford, Colonel Streatfeild, and Cdboo1 Poinsonby. The King yesterday morning left Eaton Hall with, the Duke of Westminster, his host, and the members of the house party, to shoot over the BeCigrave beat. There were nine guns, and the party travailed from the hail by the miniature railway on the Eaton Estate. The weather was dry and fine. Later in the day the King motared to Bryn Edwin, Flint Mountain, the residence of Lady Olivia.

The appointed referee, Mr Morgan, Llanfair- feclian, did not turn up, and Mr Alex. Hughes, Bangor, officiated in his stead. The teams were:- BANGOR:—T. Owen; Bob Jones and Tal Griffith; Williams, Walford, and Buckland; Hender, H. Gordon Lewis, R. Jones, Pattison, and Sam Poole. DEGANWY:-—J. Jones; J. Hughes and P. Roberts; G. Jones, Johnson, and O. Evans; G. Morris, W. H. Jones, E. Jones, D. Hughes, and G. Owen. Very soon after the game commenced, Bangor were awarded a penalty for "hands," but the goalkeeper saved R. Jones's shot. Jones rushed up, and on the second occasion banged the ball against the post. Bangor continually pressed, but J. Jones brought several clever saves, particularly one from Sam Poole. Eventually, R. Jones scored for Bangor from long range. Then, the Deg- anwy left wiug broke away, and all but scored. Soon afterwards, O. Evans fired a hot shot, which missed by inches. Repeated attacks were made on the Deganwy goal, but Hughes and Roberts were a capable pair of backs. Half-time: Bangor, 1; Deganwy, nil. The first incident of note in the second half was a drive at the Deganwy goal by R. Jones, but the custodian made a fine save, I and directly afterwards he diverted a shot by Pattison. For the first time in the match, the home custodian now had to clear. Quite unexpectedly the visiting front rank sped down the field, and by means of pretty com- bination worked the ball up to the home cus- todian, Owen crashing the ball between his legs into the net, thus equalising the scores. This success encouraged the visitors, who pressed vigorously, and E. Jones nearly scored with a grounder. To all appearance the game was going to end in a draw when in the last few minutes, Poole essayed a shot from long range, and it was successful. Final: Bangor, 2; Deganwy, 1.

WOMEN'S STJFFBAGE MOVE- MENT AT COLWYN BAY. Miss IIoyey, B.A., principal of Penrhos Col- lege. presided over a ineciting of Colwyn Bay women, held in the Cafe Royal, yesterday after- noon, with the object of considering the advi- sability of forming' a local branch of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies- In the course of an introductory address Mis3 Hovey said she was glad of that first public opportunity to express her approval cf the women's suffrage movement, which she would gladly help forward in every legitimate and reasonable manner. Giving women the vote was- a mero act of justice, because as a class she was as well equipped as man, intellectually and educa- tionally, and slic !)&re much the same responsibi- lities. She, however, very greatly regretted that any measures of physical force had been used ,11 coniieoticn with the movement, but they must acknowledge that ono good tiling accomp'ished by the militant section was, that they had suc- ceeded in directing the people's attention to the question. She, however, wished tiboy could induce tho militant eeotion to give up their practices and to adopt for the future constitu- tional, legal, and persuasive measures. An ex- haustive withal eloquent staboment of the suff- rage cafe was then made by Miss Rathbone, of Liverpool, who remarked that 6ho had often been surprised that Wales, to which England had always looked for a lead in progressive mat- ters, had not taken to that question long before now, but she was glad to say that the move- ment was att present malting- encouraging pro- gress in the Principality.

gun.ecd jof the late gctba cfto.enttø fillishics. The interment, which took place on Friday at St. George's Churchyard, of the remains of the late Lady Florentia Hughes of Kinmel was attended by a very large number of people; all sections of the community were re- presented. One of the most significant features of the gathering was the extra- ordinary large number of working people who attended to pay a last tribute of respect to one who had done so much for them, and whose thoughts were ever of their welfare. It was a cold, wintry day, but fortunately the rain kept off. It had been arranged in the event of wet weather that the coffin should be conveyed in a hearse from Kinmel to St. George, but this was not found necessary, and in accordance with an old-established custom, it was borne on the shoulders of her ladyship's devoted servants. The coffin was carried into the house by the four head servants (Messrs Beckett, Gilchrist, Owen, and Janes), and the same bearers did homage to the departed as the remains were borne from the hall. Re- lays of other servants, engaged in the Gar- dens, Woods Department and the Estate Building Yard, were requisitioned to carry the coffin from Kinmel to St. George, which was prccedcd by the Rev. T. Jenkins, rector of St. George, who had conducted a short ser- vice at the chapel in the Hall.

Evans (vicar of Llan- rhaiadr, formerly rector of St. George). The Bishop took tho opening portions of the ser- vice, and in the church the clergy repeated the prayers and lessons, the choir singing most impressively "Oh God, our help," and "Lead, kindly light," the latter being a favourite hymn of Lady Florcntia Hughes. The interment was in a portion of the churchyard to the east of the church, specially set apart for the Kinmel family. The newly- opened grave, prepared by Mr Rice Owen and his staff, was lined with white glazed bricks, the upper portion being adorned with moss and beautiful white flowers, by Mr Beckett. The burial service was recited by the Bishop. Before the Blessing was pronounced the company sang the beautiful Welsh hymn "Bydd myrdd o ryfeddodau," during which there was scarcely a dry eye around the grave. Before leaving the graveside the lady mourners deposited sprays of lilies of the valley- and violets on the coffin, which bore the following inscrip- tion:— The Lady Florentia Emily Hughes, Wife of Hugh Robert Hughes of Kinmel, And second daughter of Henry Thomas, First Earl of Ravensworth, Died at Cholmondelev, County Cheshire, 5th December, 1909, Aged 81.

RIIYL MAGISTRATES' TRIBUTE. At Rhyl PeJtty Session on Tuesday, the Chair- man (Mr S. Perks) said he. wished to propose a vote of condolencio and sympathy with Mr H. R. Hughes, of Kinmel, who was the Lord Lieu- tenant, of the County, and, in that capacity their chief magistrate, on the great loss he had sustained through the death c1 Lady Florentia Hughes. He need hardly say tihiat the late la: v Florentia Hughes was a lady who was held in the highest esteem, respected and beloved by all1 her friends and neighbours. She had ahvays shown generosity and a kindly disposition to- wards all with whom she A-as brought into con- tact, not only on the estate, but in the neigh- bourhood. It was only last Auguaifc that her ladyship assisted at the opening of the bazaar held m connection wiith the Royal Alexandra Hospital, in which she had taken a great and kindly interest. He was sure that the magis- trates present, as well as those who were absent, would associate tlheimselves with what he had, said, and join in conveying to Mr H. R. Hujghes of Kinmel, their deepest sympathy in his great bereavement. The motion was carried, all in court upstand- ing as a mark of respect.

Mr Hughes of Kinmel and his family have been the recipients of so many kind letters of sympathy with them in their great sorrow that hitherto they have found it impossible to reply to them all as they could have wished, and as they eventually hope to do. In the meantime, through the courtesy of the Press, they beg to convey to all their kind cor- respondents, as well as to the donors of so many beautiful wreaths, and to all those who attended the funeral, their heartfelt thanks for so gratifying a demonstration of sym- pathy and of kind neighbourly feeling.

The regret which will be felt at the announcement of Sir Alfred Jones's death, which took place at his residence, Oaklands, Aigburth, Liverpool, on Monday night, will be both intense and widespread, and will have necessarily come as a shock to the greater part of the Liverpool population, who had little or no knowledge of his illness. It ap- peared that a fortnight ago he had, while in London, caught a cold, which prevented him from attending the Liverpool shipbrokers' banquet. On the evening of Saturday fort- night he returned to Oaklands, feeling far from well. On the Sunday and Monday he remained at home, and on the Tues- day he went down to business and attended a luncheon, although still under the influence of a cold, which gradually wore him down, although, spurred on by his ener- getic spirit, he did his best as an invalid to* transact pressing business with the aid of a secretary or amanuensis. The end came at night, very suddenly, about a quarter past nine o'clock, when death took place from heart failure. SIR ALFRED'S CONNECTION WITH LLANDDULAS. As most of our readers are aware, Sir Alfred Jones had a country seat at Llan- ddulas, where, particularly during recent years, he was wont to spend much of his spare time during the spring and summer months. He took the most active interest in the wel- fare of the little community, and the report of his death caused sincere and general grief throughout the district. Writing of Sir Alfred's associations with, and work in the place, a correspondent states: —A Welshman by birth, it was natural that he should have a pleasant interest in a Welsh village. On one occasion he provided the vil- lagers with cherry trees for all their gardens. On another, he commissioned the then Rector to provide all who had accommodation with ducks and fowls. A third experiment was to supply tho cottagers with creepers, with the view of making their dwellings picturesque. He put a set of tubular bells in the church tower, and he was mainly instrumental in establishing a well-appointed village insti- tute. 11 But, like most village reformers, he had his disappointments. Many of his fowls were sold or used prematurely for table purposes, and many of the cherry trees have by to-day mysteriously disappeared. Of the wants of the younger generation, he was equally thoughtful. He was president of the village Cricket Club, and in addition to supplying the members with all their playing materials', he furnished them with a ground. With the local lifeboat institution he was also closely interested, and when the new boat was launched, a few weeks ago, by the Countess of Dundonald, Sir Alfred had been expected to preside over the ceremony, but was deterred from doing so at the last moment. Indeed, it would be difficult to name any useful or charitable institution connected with this district in association with which his name will not be linked for years.
