THE BRITISH CRISIS.
It eject Ion by the llrltlsh Houso or
Lords of the budget passed by the
House of Commons brings England
to one of the most serious govern
mental crimes of Its history, nnd
the march of events will bo watched
throughout the world with tho most
Intense Interest.
The action of the House of Loriis
means a general election, nnd It
may result in wiping out the upper
bouse of the llrltlsh go eminent,
lucugli this is not probable.
The famous budget of Mr. I.lod
Ceorgo furnishes tho issue that
n.ight be epitomized as a struggle of
people against gormandizers of mon-
e) nnd property. In April last the
Chancellor of the Exchequer was
confronted with a deficit for the
coming j ear of $75,000,000; He
faced the situation by presenting a
tevenue measure declared by the
Conservatives to be revolutionary.
This budget has undergone a great
many changes, but the latest state
ment of lis general terms Is git en
by the Outlook as follows:
1. An Increase of i per cent In
the Income tax on all unearned in
comes and on earned Incomes over
MS, 000. with a super-tax of 2 1-2
per cent on all Incomes exceeding
127.000.
An Increase in the death du
ties or Inheritance taxes on estates
of over $23,000, so that the maxi
mum rate of 15 per cent will be
1 cached at S&.OOO.OOO, Instead of
115,000,000.
3. A tax on motor cars, ranging
from 110 for the smallest cars to
$300 on n car of oer sixty horso
lower.
i. A tax of six cents a gallon on
gasoline . The receipts from theso
last two tuxes are to be spent lu Im
proving and extending the roads ot
the country.
5. An added tax of 94 cents per
gallon on spirits, and one of 16 cents
per pound on tobacco.
6, An Increase In the stamp tax
from $2.5Q to $5.
7. An Increase In tho duties on
liquor licenses.
8. A tax of 20 per cent on the
unearned Increment In land values
that Is, that part ot the Increase In
tho value of a piece of land which
Is due not to the labor1 or Improve
ments put upon the land by Its
owner, but to agencies outside his
control, such as the Improvement of
neighboring land, the growth ot
population, and sd forth. This tax
Is to be reckoned from a valuation ot
t!e lands In Great Britain to be
made at once.
9. A tax of two-tenths of one per
cent on mining royalties, and on tho
value of undeveloped land.
10. A duty of 10 per cent on the
benefit accruing to the owner of
leusea laud ou the termination of a
lease. The taxes under the lust
three heads carry out the principle
of the Slnglo Tax, and It Is these
proposals, together with the In
creased Income nnd Inheritance tax
es, which have especially roused the
Ire of the Consenailvea and tip)
land owners.
When Lord Kosebery declared that
tho budget wus "retolutlon," Llojd
(Iforge answered that It was a war
budget "It Is a budget declaring

Owing to the radical move against
the "conserntle" property men of
the country, this extraordinary
budget has raised a constitutional
question, which by the nctlon ot
jesterday tho House of Lords has de
clded Bhall be fought to the finish.
Tho country divides on the ques
tion of the right of the Houso of
Lords to deal with meaaures ot taxa
tion. The House ot Commons has
held rigidly to the policy declared by
the Commons In 1G71 that "In all
aids given to tho king, by tho Com
mons, the rate or tax ought not to
be altered by the Lords." While this
has not been admitted, the llou?e of
Lords has submitted tn it.
Neer before has the Houso of
Lords rejected a budget us a whole.

It would seem tha the rejection
