IMPRISONMENT OF A MEMBER.
{"house": "Commons", "speaker": null, "word_count": 151}
Ordered, That all Members who are returned for two or more places in any part of the United Kingdom do make their election for which of the places they will serve, within one week after it shall appear that there is no question upon the return for that place; and if anything shall come in question touching the Return or Election of any Member, he is to withdraw during the time the matter is in debate; and that all Members returned upon double Returns do withdraw till their Returns are determined. Resolved, That no Peer of the Realm, except such Peers of Ireland as shall for the time being be actually elected, and shall not have declined to serve, for any county, city, or borough of Great Britain, hath any right to give his vote in the election of any Member to serve in Parliament. Motion made, and Question proposed— "That it is a high infringement of the liberties and privileges of the Commons of the United Kingdom for any Lord of Parliament, or other Peer or Prelate, not being a Peer of Ireland at the time elected, and not having declined to serve for any county, city, or borough of Great Britain, to concern himself in the election of Members to serve for the Commons in Parliament, except only any Peer of Ireland, at such elections in Great Britain respectively, where such Peer shall appear as a candidate, or by himself, or any others, be proposed to be elected; or for any Lord-Lieutenant or Governor of any county to avail himself of any authority derived from his Commission, to influence the election of any Member to serve for the Commons in Parliament." Mr. SWIFT MacNEILL : I oppose the renewal of this Sessional Order on the grounds that since its first institution it has been the merest dead letter, that it has been repeatedly abrogated and violated, and that no steps of an earnest character have ever been taken to enforce it. This is not a party question, Members on both sides—Mr. James Lowther on the one, and Sir Wilfrid Lawson, Mr. Labouchere, and Mr. Bradlaugh on the other—having repeatedly moved the rejection of this Sessional Order. Such a motion was on one occasion made by no less an authority than Lord Randolph Churchill. I have not intervened in a debate on this subject before, and I would not now, but for the fact that circumstances have widely changed We have heard, and we believe, 4 that the question of the House of Lords is now the predominant issue before the country. That issue has been joined, and I base my opposition to this Sessional Order on the great authority of Mr. Gladstone, who, on August 16th, 1886, when the continuance of the Order was under discussion, said:— "Looking to the fact that the hon. Gentleman who seconded the motion (Sir Wilfrid Lawson) distinctly admitted that he did so because he was prepared to support the abolition of the House of Lords, it appears to me that the abolition of the Sessional Order and the broad adoption of the principle that Peers may be equally concerned in the popular election of Commoners, is in the nature of laying the first parallel in the siege which is at some time or in some circumstances to be laid against the House of Lords and its present exclusive privileges." The siege is now begun. Surely I am justified in asking the House to lay the first parallel, and to accept Mr. Gladstone's advice. He said, further:—# "That is a question on which at the present moment I do not give any opinion beyond this: Anything that is to be done in the matter ought to be done by us with our eyes open, and with a view of the purpose to which it is really intended to be directed, and not as a matter of mere form, as if it were of little importance." That is what I wish the House to do now—with its eyes open, to adopt Mr. Gladstone's tactic, and, now that the question has become the predominant issue, abolish this Resolution. Moreover, on the occasion to which I have referred, amongst those who voted against the renewal of this Sessional Order I find the name "H. H. Asquith." It was the first division in which the present Prime Minister took part, and, as he has never withdrawn from a position he has once seriously adopted, I would ask him—as this is not a matter of high politics—if he would refrain from putting on the Government tellers, for it is a question which should be left to the discretion of the House. He need not be in any difficulty in this connection so far as the Leader of the Opposition is concerned, for the right hon. Gentleman has voted both for and against the motion. I have fortified myself by reading the advice given by him when out of office in 1894, Lord Rosebery in that year having made an electioneering speech at Edinburgh. The question of Lord Rosebery's interference was raised in the discussion which took place on the motion of Lord Randolph Churchill. The Leader of the Opposition, of course, backed up Lord Randolph Churchill on that occasion. The right hon. Gentleman said that the action of Lord Rosebery "has now convinced us 5 finally that this Sessional Order which we pass every time we assemble must be acknowledged to be a farce." That was the manner of the Leader of the Opposition when in Opposition, but when we come to one short year afterwards we find out that in 1895 he was a great stickler for the rigidness of the rule. He said the House could not censure the noble lord, and, if it did, he would probably treat the censure with ridicule. We are asked to stultify ourselves every year by passing this Sessional Order while taking no steps to enforce it. Is that a course which anyone would care to adopt now when the siege of the House of Lords has begun? Let them come out into the open and show themselves, and vote if they chose like men. This rule is very curious and interesting. It is a rule which has always been unsuccessful. It had its foundation when it was passed by the Long Parliament in 1640. The Long Parliament saw that the rule did not work, and then they advanced the proposal to abolish the House of Lords for the time. Then the rule was in abeyance until the Act of Settlement. It has been consistently violated from that time to this. I have not the precedents with me, but anyone interested in the subject will find that there was an interesting debate on the subject in 1847. Sir John Jervis, the then Attorney-General, said he had looked up all the precedents, and stated that in no case except one did the House ever act. In that case a noble duke had sent letters and employed his agent in regard to votes in an election, and his conduct was brought before Parliament as a breach of privilege. A Committee was appointed to investigate the case. The Committee sat, but the House of Commons declined to take any action. In the same year another noble lord committed a similar offence, but no action was taken. In another case Sir Frederick Thesiger disowned that the Duke of Marlborough had exercised influence at an election. Sir Frederick was at that time the representative of a pocket borough, and he was not anxious to bring the Duke of Marl- 6 borough under the lash. In 1886 some twenty Peers were said to have interfered in elections. Of all the offenders in this way, the late Lord Salisbury was one of the worst. The conduct of the Duke of Marlborough in interfering in elections was brought four times before this House. If this Sessional Order is to be real and not merely passed to be allowed to remain a dead letter, this House should take action when a Peer interferes in an election; but if the Order is not to be enforced it should not be passed. I beg to move that the Order be not agreed to. The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Asquith) : I think this Sessional Order has now been discussed twenty times year after year. I cannot agree that it raises the large and grave issue which my hon. friend suggests. I can speak with perfect impartiality on the matter because, like the Leader of the Opposition, I have voted both ways in the course of my not very long Parliamentary career. I think my hon. friend is quite right in saying that the first vote I gave in this House was in opposition to this Order, but since then I have taken a different view. I think the arguments are evenly balanced one way and the other. It may be said of this Sessional Order, as has been said by my hon. friend, that it is nugatory and academic, that it is without sanction, that it is disregarded from time to time, and that nobody is made amenable. On the other hand, it may be said in its favour that it is the assertion of a principle coming down to us from the time of the Long Parliament, that it has been passed Session after Session now for some 250 years, and that there is no sufficient reason why we should change to-day. On the whole, I am in favour of maintaining the Sessional Order, for, I think it is one of those matters of which it is pre-eminently important that the House of Commons ought to be free to exercise its independent judgment. Question put. The House divided:—Ayes, 221; Noes, 142.

MINISTERIAL NOTICES.
{"house": "Commons", "speaker": null, "word_count": 242}
My Lords and Gentlemen, I was much impressed and gratified by the warmth of the public reception given to the Queen and myself during our recent visit to the German Emperor and Empress at Berlin by all classes of the community. It afforded us great pleasure to meet their Majesties again, and I feel confident that the expression of cordial welcome which there greeted us will tend to strengthen those amicable feelings between the two countries which are essential to their mutual welfare and to the maintenance of peace. My relations with foreign Powers continue to be friendly. Satisfactory progress has been made in the negotiation of outstanding questions with the United States of America. A treaty to regulate the use of the waterways adjacent to the international boundary between Canada and the United States has been arranged. The question being one of special Canadian interest, the advice of the Dominion Government was sought and followed throughout. My Ambassador at Washington has also negotiated, with the co-operation of the Canadian and Newfoundland Ministers of Justice, an Agreement for the reference to arbitration of the North American Fisheries question. I trust that the Agreement will be the means of effecting a final and friendly settlement of matters which have been long under discussion between this country and the United States. Arbitration Agreements concluded by my Government with those of France, Italy, and Spain, which were on the point of expiring, have been renewed for a further term of five years, and it is proposed to treat similar instruments in the same manner. The situation in Persia continues to cause anxiety. My Government have no desire to depart from the principle of non-intervention in the internal affairs of that country. At the same time, they are of opinion that the state of affairs in Persia imperatively demands the introduction of representative institutions in a practical form, in order to assure the realisation of indispensable economic, financial, and administrative reforms, and to pacify the country. As the present troubles endanger numerous commercial and economic interests which Great Britain and Russia have in Persia, the two Governments are exchanging views on the subject. I am happy to think that there is now an improved prospect of a solution of the difficulties which have arisen in the Balkans. It 13 is my earnest hope that a settlement may be arrived at which will be satisfactory to all the States whose interests are concerned. The news of the disastrous earthquake which occurred recently in Sicily and Calabria called forth the deepest feelings of compassion for the afflicted population. Assistance was rendered by the officers and men of my Fleet, and the naval and military stores in the Mediterranean were utilised for the relief of the sufferers. I am glad that my people have shown their sympathy with the friendly nation of Italy in this terrible calamity. An International Conference, which is now sitting in London, will, I trust, soon reach an agreement on certain questions of maritime law. The conclusions arrived at will be laid before you, that there may be due oppotunity of considering them when your assent is asked to such legislation as may be necessary to enable my Government to ratify the International Prtze Court Convention. The reception of the measures designed by my Government for improving Indian administration has given me deep satisfaction. A Bill will at once be laid before you, dealing with matters in which your sanction is required; and it is my strong desire that the steps to be taken for giving effect to the policy announced in my Message of last November to the Princes and people of India may impartially protect the interests and advance the welfare of all races, classes, and communities in my Indian dominions. The work accomplished by the Convention for closer Union, which concluded its sittings at Cape Town in the present month, in framing the plan of a South African Constitution for submission to the constituent Colonies marks the achievement of the first stage in the consolidation of that important part of my Empire. Gentlemen of the House of Commons, Estimates for the expenditure of the year will in due course be laid before you. Owing to various causes, including the new provision which was made last year for old age, and an increase which has become necessary in the cost of my Navy, the expenditure of the year will be considerably in excess of that of the past twelve months. In these circumstances, the provision necessary for the services of the State in the ensuing year will require very serious consideration, and, in consequence, less time than usual will, I fear, be available for the consideration of other legislative measures. My Lords and Gentlemen, The Bills dealing with Irish Land and Housing and Town Planning, to the discussion of which time and labour were given in your last Session, will be re-introduced. A Bill will be laid before you for the Disestablishment and Disendowment of the Church in Wales. I have now received the Report of the Commission, which I appointed more than three years ago, to inquire into the working of the Poor Law, and into the provision for meeting distress arising from want of employment. The recommendations of the Commission are engaging the careful attention of my Government. A measure will be proposed for the better organisation of the labour market through a system of co-ordinated labour exchanges, with which other schemes for dealing with unemployment may subsequently be associated. A Bill will be introduced for the constitution of Trade Boards in certain branches of industry in which the evils known as "sweating" prevail. A measure will be laid before you to alter the law affecting Parliamentary Elections and Registration in London. In connection with the financial arrangements of the year, proposals will be brought forward for amending the Old-Age Pensions Act in certain particulars where, in practice, inequalities of treatment have been found to arise. A Bill prohibiting the landing and selling in the United Kingdom of fish caught in prohibited areas of the sea adjoining Scotland will also be introduced. Bills will be presented to amend the law in regard to inebriates, to the supply of milk, and to the hours of work in shops. Your labours upon these and all other matters I humbly commend to the blessing of Almighty God.
