Dear Sir,— Vuur report of llie proceedings of tile local iiarliament •in la.sl week’s “ Times" is calculated to make one pause. That the lirilliaiit light of Wellgate whose refulgent oratory has so often illuminated your columns, that Aid. Cowgill. 1 say, the IDemosthenes, the Cicero of his jjarty. whose heart has .never quailed before the legal flummeries of Ihe council chamber, whose Iransceiiteiilal wisdonu regarded by his fol­ lowers as .second only in tlial of a Six;ra.les, has placed him in the niche of fame as a leader in whom there .is iu> guile., should so far forget the dignities of his |xisilion. the traditions of his past, as to confess his ignor­ ance on such an elemenla.ry pha.se of local government ,as the [rrovi.s'ioii of artisans’ dwellings, i.s siiflicient to make one rub his eyes and say “ do 1 sleep, do 1 dre.atit, or i.s wisions about?'’ “ O what a fall w.as thera" “ These be your Gods O Israel ’ ! To vary an old .saying “ 'I'here are none


so dense as rhose who don't wish to under­ stand.’’


.Some few year,! ago during a


municipal election the S.D.I’ . lirotiglit the matter before the Liberal candidates, and. in view of the large number of back to back houses ill Clitherue aiul Low Moor— which at that time formed a hardy annual in the Medical Officer of Health’s .report— urged theimmediate adoption of the Housing .Act. The Liberals (read reaclioni.sis) treated the mailer then as now; rhe result was three out of four were plucked. Would they like a repetilion of the plucking process thus Nuvemlter.


gramme has ciiiilained this imporlaiil item of Housing Refurni, scores of nalioiial and parochial conferences have been heltl on the subject, •innumerable works raiigiiig from penny pamphlets to very vohimiiious |)rixJtic- tions are to be had and sever.al societies, such .as the Workmen’s Hori.sing Council, are only too glad to supply information to the enquiren. and yet Clitheroe's demand is met with “ What does if mean?'’ “ Co toT Aid. Cowg.ill, “ f am imdoiiie.' Aid. Cowgill's advice to the trade imion-


ists to build houses is tmworlhy of noti'ce and betravs liis ignor.ance of the fnnclions of trade unions. The tendency to-day is to an extension of municipal activity not to its restriction. Had our mtmii.-ipal fathers i'n the past given one-tentli of the energies thev devoted to axe-grinding and feathering their own nqsls to the ])rotecrion of the town’s heritage of land a.nd mineral wealtli and the development of .all that nature has so bountifully endowed the “ hill beside the water’’ with, we rnight to-day have


been in the fortunate po.sifion of a rate-lcss town.


^ Wake up. Clilheroe! The town is now


full. With the completion of all the works now ill prepa.raitiim a large demaml lor houses is hound to en.stie. I'l the Housing •Act caiinot be a]iplied in Ciitheroe where builders’ wages are at a miiiimiim where shall we go?

THE TOWN' COL'XCII. AND .A[UXICfPAL DWiiLL1XCS.


Sir.— 'file Town Council has met, and


with sneers has refuted the tittempt of the Trades Coimcil to get them to supply an obvious neetl.


It is iiitereslftig to note


lliat the members of the party of " progress '’ are responsible for 'Ihe defeat of the pro­ posal— that great and historic party which after the next Parlitimentary General Elec­ tion. when it has turned otil of oflice this “ wicked it ltd retrograde Tory adniiiii.s- tratioii.'


is to 'iiratigtirale a new


era of reform, and 'i'u.stitiile that mtich desired ideal state wliich “ tilopians’' have ta'.ketl of for ages. (Of course they might iiot do till this; for speech­ es at political garden |)arlies are apt to be a trifle overdrawn and misleading : and jtoli- ticiaits sometimes change their nfind.s— after they h.avu .got the votes.) Thus have the Liberals again demon-


.strated the absurdity of their claim to b.e the a])ostles of ])fogress, the “ [ieo])le’s ’’ re|)resemative.s. The argumenis advanced again.st the proposal are indicated (i) of the mental density of .some of rho.se to whom the luirges.ses have eiilrusted the 'maitage- meiir of their affairs, and (2) of their utter tiisregaril of the wishes and the be.st inter­ ests of a large .seefton of those whom they are .stip|)Osed to re]ireseut,. and who coiilri- hute a cotisiilerable jtortion of the co.s-t of the tiiwii's goveriittieiit. It is hut another iii.stattce of the fooliishtiess of the workitig class VII electing men to Ihe Town Coiiiicil who reitre.scnt the ca|iilalist interest ; Ihe workers must expect such rebuffs imlil thev realise tlie necessity of rettirning to ]xiwer tho.se wfio will see that private interest is not allowed to stand in the way of miini- oipttl progre.ss. The discti.ssion should also impress upon that section of the proletariat, who rely u])on Ihe Liberals to .save them> the fact, which experience ought to have ttiught them years and yea.rs ago, that, wltere their imerests are concerned, the capilalint.s know neither cla.ss nor creed, ft is capital versiLs laltour, not capital and labour. ‘Not until Ihe workers, acting upon Ihe experi­ ence of the past, determine to be reijre.seiil- ed by men who will oppose tooth ttiid nail this class interest, and who are pledged to the overthrow of the fiidividualist system of .Society, will itieir stilvatioii from o]>pres- sioii and injustice draw irigh. Mr. Cowgill seems to htive become quite


livery S.D.K. immici])al pro­


ait autuciat in his way since his partv elect­ ed hint lo the tildunnanic lieiicli, and his old love of itlayliig to the gallery aitpears to be on Ihe wane. Rut, of coiir.se, he’s an alderman now, and does iiut rely direct.lv for his |)orlion on the “ pujmlar ’’ vole. Mr. Cowgill opened Ihe attack on the Trades’ Council’s ,resolution,, and after amionncing that the letter must he answeretl in a bus'uiess-like w.ay, he proceeded to ixtint out lo those who adopted the resolution their total ignorance of the actual state of things its regarded the housiiiig accommo­ dation in the town. Serve ’em right too, the “ cheek ’ of some of the.se ])resent-day working men is appalling I l’'a.ncy them hav­ ing the im])iidence to assert lhat there is .a, lack of houses in Clitherue when the mag­ nanimous property owners are quite willing at any time lo sell a.ny of the wealthy wealth-producing class a dwelling. Do the properly owners think more houses should be built? Certainly not. “ Fools we should be (<ine can imtigine them saying) to


suggest the erecll'oii of new dwellings wlien people are fighting for our houses, a<nd wil­ ling to p.ay higher rents than the previous tenants in order to be allowed to live in them.” ■


ness. went on to rlefv his fellow members of the Comieil to point to any town or l.•llrollgh with less thtui a population of ,|o,ooo where the adoption of the Act for housing the artisan clarss had been a finan­ cial -succe.s.s. .As the said members are not walking eiic.yclopedias and therefore unable In meet ulT-hand such a challenge, the Aldermaii .scored “ hands-down.’’ Sitiigular to relaie^ however, Alderman Cowgill c.uti'ited to quote any instance where the erection of municipal houses in the smaller I i.'iroughs hits proved a failure. That might lia\’t lieeii an oversight— or, iierhaps lie did not know of any such instance. X'or did he offer any sort of explanation wiiv in large cities and towns, such as Loudon, Manchester, Liverjiool, Leicester, Glasgow,, etc., where the authorities have had eiior- mou.s ilifliculties to face in the shape of lieaw kind lalues, higli rales and Kigh priced labour, immiciipal houses have been a .siicce.ss, both as a flnti.neial speculation and as a means of improving, the health ami, Iherefnre, decreasing the death rate of the cnmiminity.


.\(i«' what I. and others, want to know is


why it is not ixissible in less thickly jiopu- lalcil towns, where land and labour (s cheap .mil where rates are low. for muni- capal houses to be made lo “ pay.'' If Mr. Cowgill hits sutiie special rea.son lo offer which we have ttot been able to discover, will he he good ettough to mitke ktiowti the .s.tme. He m.ay he right; if he is, let him point out to us where we have gone astfay ill our calculations. The explanation of wliat at |)fcsctit apiiears to be a curious attomalv sliould be interesting to say the least: .of it.


The ftiel rem.altis lhat mutiicipal housitig


i.s a success iti itlaees where it has been adopted iti both England atid Scotland. 'J'he adoption of the Housing of the Wo.rking Classes .A<'t has etiabled munieiiialities in the more crowiled cetitres to clear away sittm |iroperty .and lo erect substantial atid healthy dwellitig.s.’'which have been let at a, far lower leittal than houses owtied by private capitalists. 1 have yet to learn that the adoption of the Act has in any case iti- volvcd a cliarge upon the rales. In some iti.stances the nutitiieipal property has yielded so gooil a return to the Corporatiot>s that it has enalrled them to extend their work of jirm iditig the “ jxiorest of the jioor ’’ and the arti.sati cla.sses with “ room to live’’ at ;i reasonable chitrge. In the smaller towns where the .Act has been ])ut into force ex­ perience htis shown that the authorities h.ave heeii able to com])ete with atid beat jirivale enteriiritte in Ihe provision of house accom­ modation. I w-ill quote one inslahce only, Richmond, in Surrey, a, fasliionabie subur­ ban town, where mnniciiial houses to ac- coniinodaie persons of varying means have lieen erected, and which provide belter accommndalioii and let mucli cheaper than Itrnpcriy erected liy jtrivale enterprise in Richtnoiid and other .suhtirhan districts of J.ondnn. and Ihe -stime tiling obtains in the provinces and in Scotland. The reason for this is lhat in all places and at all times the private s]ieculator builds in order to make a. big profit; unless he is sure of a very stih.sianlial, and in some c.asqs an e.x- ce.s.sive refiirii. he will not lay out his money. \Vu li.ave ;m instance of tliis in Ciitheroe at the iiresent time. The municipality, on tile other hand, builds in order to supply the needs of the people, not with the prim­ ary object of “ making the thing pay ” ; they iisiiallv manage, however, to make the ven­ ture profitable also from a financial stand- poiiir.


.•Vklerniaii Robinson’s extravagiint remark


thill there was not a in;ui in England who could come to Ciitheroe, build a cottage house, and get h.:s own money back at tlie jireseiit rents, is loo utterly absurd to merit' serit.uis ctvnsideralion: It is only iieces- sary to remind him that house property in Clilheroe lias in past years been considered a .siih.staiitial investnieiil, and rents are on tile whole higher to-day than ever before. The tendency is for rents to increase, iiol lo decrease. It is equ.ally absurd to quote iiiS an evidence of the low value of house Iiroperly in the town, the fact that at h. pultlic auction certain .houses that have been standing for many years did not reiil'ise the jirice of new properly. The majority of the newer houses put up at that sale cer­ tainly realised their full v.ahie. In the case of two of the houses referred to, the pur- chase price was nearly double the .sum ob­ tained for similar houses situate in the same neighbourhood when offered by public auc­ tion a few years ago. This, and otlier in- slance.s wliich might lie named, go to show tliat tlie vitliie of house property is increafi- ing, and with an inijirovement in trade this incretise is bound to continue. Th'ereforq from the point of view of a jirofitable in­ vestment alone, .aptirt from the question of ,a duty demanded from them by the town. Ihe Council would, I believe;, find that it woulfl p.ay them to .seek the sanction of the Loc.al Government Board to obtain a loan for the purpose of erecl'ing municipal divel- liiigs in Ciitheroe.


the ratepayers— well; the- .November elec­ tion ris at hiiiid, and the working men willv votes know what to do. They possess the power to ' iiut up ’’ and support men who will carry out their des'res; let them use the power to good advantage. ,I am,, sir,
