ENGLISH POLITICS.
(FKK PRESS ASH JO ATION.)
London, April 10. The^ horse and wheel taxes, as proposed m the Budget, are meeting with strenuous opposition m the House of Commons. In consequence of the opposition offered to the licensing clauses m the Local Government Bill by their own supporters, the Government have agreed to leave the control of licenses to the counties instead of local bodies, and have also agreed that no corapen- « sation shall be p^id to the owner or landlord of a licensed house from which the license has been wnb drawn. The Marquis of Salisbury speaking at Carnarvon, stated he had every hope that the peace of Europe would be preserved. Referring to affairs m;; Ireland, he said that rents were now paid with more freedom and the law was better observed. Boycotting was becoming rare and the people were ,;■ being relieved from tyranny. He stated ,^ that some of (he worst members of the League aimed at theft as a mode of operation, and often murder was resorted to. He ridiucled the idea that ' nationality justified a separate political .. existence.
