Colonial Representation in Commons.
NOT FAVORED BY AUSTRALIANS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright London, July 12. The Daily Telegraph’s statement that possibly a Bill would be introduced taking away thirty of the Irish seats in tho House of Commons and giving them to the colonies is absolutely contradicted in official circles.
The New South Wales Agent-General interviewed said that the colonics are not eager for scats in the House of Commons. Australians never favored representation in the Imperial Parliament.
