BULLS AND BLUNDERS,
--
Examples of theArt of Making Con. 1
tradietory Statenients.
Like the Irishman' win/ ,said that
hie repo had only one end because
the other had been cut aevay, john
Burns, when he spoke recently of
throwing out a lifeline tho Eng-
lish Parliament provided a very
amusing illustration of the art of
moking a statement -which' contra-
dicts itself, 'says London Tit Bite•
Alluding to one of the labor mem-
bers during the emerse• of a debate,'
the president of the Boatel of Trade
said : '"I theuld like to throw the
honorable Member a lifeline, so that
I might peek him as a brand from
the burning."
It recalls the, famous bull made by
Sir William, Hirt -Dyke, the Union-
ise ex:Minister, who caused uproari-
ous laughter in the House of COM -
mons one day by remarleing, "The
right honorable gentleman has
caught big fish in his time,. He has
gone to the top of the tree to final
them!'
. .
Alluding to an item of $10,000,-
000 in the army estimates one year,
12 cereain member described it as
"a flea bite in the ocean," while
another, advocating an increase in
Ilia European troops employed in
India,' remarked, "You ,may depend
tipot, it, sir, the pale faze of the
British edlelier is the backbone of
the Indian army." •
••• An Irish member, speaking of
suicide, said, "The only way to atop
it is to make it le capital 'offense,
punisha,b,le with death," It was the
same member who assured the
Hoitee that "As long as Ireland wad
silent under her wrongs England
was deal to her cries," while it was
during It debate on the scandal of
packed juries during the Irish trou-
bles' that 44 member in ,support of
the Goveimment exclaimed, "By
trial by jury 'hays I lived, and, by
the blessings of God, with trial by
juey I will die."
There was. a wilcl temel of delight,
too, when some. prosy member was
eareleee enough to remark, "The
time has come, and is rapidly arriv-
ing," which is equal to the 'cry of
the member who wished, s motion
was "at the bottoxn of the bottom -
lees pit."
When it was stated on a money
grant that it Ives unjust to saddle
posterity with le debt incurred to
benefit the preseet, one member
asked, "Why should we beggar our-
eelves to better posterity ? Wbat
has posterity done for us?" The
laugh following rather surprised
him, as he was, unconscious of his
bluncler, and he promptly made
matters worse by ,saying, "Sir, by
posterity I do not mean our ances-
tors, but those who come immedi-
ately after them."
• Of other bulls, pertha,ps the gem
of all was that perpetrated by Mon-
tagu Williams when he was defend-
ing a certain famous murderer. Re
wished to impress the jury the
fact that the judge had once been a
great p,rosecuting counsel, "Gen-
tlemen, ' he eaid, "the leopard can-
not ehange his spots, and neither
does its right hand lose its cun-
ning."
