The house of commons pueted Ilvury Laboucbere's amendment to abolish the home of lords 147 to 145 in spite of the opposi tion of the government. THE QUESTION OF LA BOB. Sir Charles E. H. Vlnceut, in a long speech, moved the amaudtnent of the Sddress by representing to the queen that the depression In trade and agri cultural, the reduction of wages of workman, the thousand of unemploy ed laborers, and the continous im migration of aliens, ought to be called to the attention of parliament. Sir Albert Kaye Hollett, Frederick Garnish and others supported the amendment. Mr, Mundell, president of the board of trade, thought the least they iuterfered with trade the better. British workmen, he said, were much better off thau American workmen. Viucent'a amendment was lost by a vntn of 1!)2 to 8G. and adlournment was taken. THE HOUSE OP LORDS. In the house of lords, the Earl of Roseberry, speaking to a motion to ap prove the address in reply to the speech from the throne, asked tho fullest In dulgence of the peers, as he had been forced into the position he occupied by a sudden call to replace a man of the noblest energies, who was lost not alone to the liberal party, hut to the nation. Lord Salisbury regretted the retirement of Mr. Gladstone, which, he said, was a loss that would have great influence on the' destinies of the natiou. The succession of Lord Roseberry,1 he said, was nerfectlv acceptable, seeing that his lordship bad given many proofs of his great abilities, But;be tnougut it would have been better if the govern ment, instead of adhering simply to the Newcastle program, had introduced fresh subjects into Its program. It was a pity, ho said, that home rule was not put to the very front. The sooner the question was decided the better. If it were true that England would resist separation to the last, the sooner Ire land knew of It the better. Tho gov ernment ought not to put home rule into the queen's speech year after year, unless it meant to carry It. ROSEBERRY REPLIES. Lord Roseberry sala the government did not desire to evado the question of home rule for Ireland, but explained that it was not mentioned In the qeeen's speech because it would not be intro duced this session. The Times Lord Rosiberry'a Inci dental admission in replying to Lord Salisbury, that before home rule would be conceded, England, as the dominant member of the three king doms, wouldjjbave to be convinced of Its justice, changed the whole aapect of ailaireand shattered the very basis of the new prime mlnlster'a policy. In the presence of this momentous declar ation all tho rest was wasted verbiage. It must produce the gravest consterna tion aa soon as its significance la per ceived. There is a majority of over 70 agalnt home rule among the Eugllsh commoners, and when the premier ad mlta that a declclve result la impossible unless tho English electorate return a i.nmn rule ma orlty. he virtually acqui- taceato the argumenta of the oppo nents of separation. After summing up Lord Roseberry's declarations at the llbcial conference, the Timea saya i.t paneral feeling was that hla first appearance aa premier had been distinctly disappointing.

Sir William Harcourt also gave notion of the gov ernment's intention to submit a bill granting local control over tho liquor traffic. Want a Silver Oouforence. London. March 13.

Onb Cent Daily for four month at 1 1.00. There should be good work done at the Republican primaries in Oregon this week. Every Republican should fool that It Is a patriotic duty to party and country to not only attend his primaries but to take a personal in tercut for tho welfare of the party in selecting the yery best men for dele gates, and shane up the best and strongest county, legislative and state ticket. If this duty is well done tho groundwork for party success Is laid and tho party carries with it fresh rrom the people all tho impulses for re foim and ail the needful euthuMapui for success. If Republicans do uot take hold of tilts and administer the proper purgatives, or sulphur and molatees as Chauncy Depew culls It, aud engage In tho proper semi-annual lonnimroll of dead timber, the struc ture becomes weak and rotten. Oregon Is overwhelmingly Repuhll- cn. But tlio people nro (jr nan Inn under hard times and high taxes. Bo fur as uatlonal aflairs are concerned, no one questions Republican success1. In tho elghtstates holding elections lust fall nearly all of Cleveland's plurality of 378,000 votes before In forty-four states wub wiped out. The Republicans of Ooegon will swell the tide of victory by electing two Republi can congressmen in Juue. When it comes to state ticket and legislature Oregon Republicanism has a double foe to meet, Tho wily and roxy State HouHe King, Governor Pen noyer, is seeking to direct hla Immense personal following of tho past against tho Republicans. Ho will name tho Fusion governor and capture the legis lature If possible. Hero Is where Re publicans must ho on their guard. In Marlon county there will bo a Re publican county ticket elected. Repub licans who have served a term and given reasonable satisfaction will bo given o ro-nomlnatlon. For tho new placea to bo filled a strong and harmo nious ticket should bo nominated. Aa all county officers elected next Juue go on a salary, there la nothing to be said on that point. Jf thoso salaries are too tiirrii ilm iiHit legislature can reduce them but It canuot touch the men who are elected lu Juue. Of course, Republicans will not fuse. They will' stand aa they havo always stood, an Independent American party founded upon universal and patriotic principle of good government. But there la that within the Republican party that haa never bssltated to over throw corruption within the party when necessary. Iu Peuuoylvanla with 200,000 Republican majority Re- publlcaua defeat their own ticket when It suits them to do so. That Is just aa true of Republicans of Oregon or Marlon county. The Journal renowalta demand for clean, strong delegated from tho pri maries. Htate, county, federal and city officials should not select thost dele gates. Let them come fresh from the people. Otllco-liolders are but human. If they make up our convention they Hill ulriko at any rntu who earnest' ly champions reductions In their fees and aafarics, howeyer Just and reason- able such proposition miy be. It is but natural that in the age of tho al mighty dollar men in public ofllco and public affairs should seek to make nil thero is in it. That is American. It is human. The way to stop it or re form it is not to howl calamity and de clare our government a failure aud a a conspiracy against the people, but as sensible men to get iu at tho root of tho matter and prevent tho eyll continuing or greater spreading. To deuounco meu for what has been dono is weak. To look ahead nud adjust government to present conditions and future necessi ties is statesmanship. THE KNIf E GOES IN. Piorco County and Tacoma Are Economizing. Tacoma. March 13. At a consulta tion between the county commissioners, the superior Judges and the county at torney this morning, it was practically decided to issue $287,000 lu county funding bonds, by resolution of the board, and to sot asido as a special fund to meet the current expenses of 1803 all taxes received from tho levy of the past year. It was pretty clearly dem onstrated that this action would be legal, and that by adoption of this plan Pierce county would be enabled to continue tho machinery of its govern ment without cessation, by practice of rlorid economy in all branches of tho COUnty guvorumoiit. Tha cmiuty enm- mlssionorsare certain thut th(expenses or the fiscal year ending yuly l, lBUi, will bo more than met by tho levy for county purposes made in 1803, and that tho surplus arising from tux collections will bo sufficient to cover tho expenao intervening between that period and tho 1st of November next, when tho tax levy for 1804 ill bo made. Tho city council has decided toreduco tho salary of overy person lu the city employ, from mayor to elevator boy. It la very doubtful, though, irthoy will bo able to carry out tha recommenda tion, as sorno time ago they cut salar ies to a very low notch. According to tho new scale, tho mayor's salary Is cut to $2000,und tho ohleror police to vw. LaNE COUNTY NEWS. Important Cases in Court Reduction in School Salaries. Eugene, March 12.
