Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Home Rule: A Study in Administration The unsatisfactory character of American municipal government has, within the past few years, drawn unusual attention to the problems which it presents, and which, on account of the recent extraordinary development of municipal life, are becoming at the same time more numerous and more important. But as a result of the intimate connection of municipal with general government, all concrete attempts at municipal reform must of necessity depend upon an accurate delimitation of the sphere of action, which can, with due regard to the interests of the state as a whole, be assigned to our municipal organizations. The attempt to delimit such a sphere of action is the purpose of this little work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Military Danger of Home Rule for Ireland IN venturing to touch on the vexed Irish question, my excuse must be that my family, after many, centuries in Scotland, spent two hundred years in Ireland from the middle of the seventeenth to that of the nineteenth century. They there lived the quiet life of country-gentlemen in King's County; and also of British soldiers throughout the world, at all events from the days of Marlborough's great victories, in which they took part. In the present revolution under which we suffer, the British constitution has been uprooted, and we are now threatened with the dismemberment of the United Kingdom as well.

Book The Present Status of the Home Rule Question  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Present Status of the Home Rule Question Classic Reprint written by William Thomas Laprade and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present Status of the Home Rule Question But, after all, the most interesting question at present con cerning the Government of Ireland Bill is whether it has any chance of becoming a law in the near future. As regards this question, any prophecy at the present juncture would be rash. Nevertheless, there are some facts which can be stated with reasonable certainty and which are worthy of the attention of students of current politics. One of the most evident of these facts is that the majority of Englishmen no longer get excited about the question. True enough a certain class of Unionist leaders are using strong, not to say violent and dis courteous, language in the newspapers, on the platform, and even on the floor of the House of Commons. But as far as the results have been expressed in votes they cannot be said to tell very strongly against Home Rule. The administration has lost several seats at recent by-elections and has held others by decreased majorities, as the administration of the day usually does. But in none of these contests have the Unionists shown a disposition to feature Home Rule as an issue, except perhaps in Manchester. But since 1903 the voters of that city have developed the habit of returning Liberal members in general elections, when there is a possibility that the election Of a Union ist member might mean the success of the policy of protective tariffs, and Unionists in by - elections, when free trade is not in danger. Much water has passed under the bridges since 1886, even since 1893, and there is every indication that in the meantime the view that some measure of Home Rule is the only possible solution of the Irish question has gained ground in Great Britain until it now commands the approval of a majority of the voters. The most rabid Unionist leaders them selves complain of the apathy of their followers. An exami nation Of the arguments used by the leaders of the parties thatfore, say, and apparently believe, that the prime minister and his colleagues have sold themselves for place, and that they do not really believe in the measures they are supporting. It would be a mistake, however, to take this view too seriously. Even though we could believe the ministers, who are admitted by many Unionists to be a more able group of men than those who occupy the front Opposition bench, to be so entirely devoid of political scruples, it is impossible to conclude that all their eminent supporters out of office, publicists, journalists, and the like, are also of that character. We are obliged to believe, therefore, that the arguments used by the advocates of Home Rule represent the actual Opinions of a considerable number of English people.

Book The Indeterminate Permit in Relation to Home Rule and Municipal Ownership  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Indeterminate Permit in Relation to Home Rule and Municipal Ownership Classic Reprint written by Delos F. Wilcox and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indeterminate Permit in Relation to Home Rule and Municipal Ownership In the author's opinion state regulation as an exclusive or dominant policy has broken down. Its inherent weaknesses under our system of jurisprudence are fatal to its effectiveness for the full protection of the public interests. The proper func' tioning of utilities as cooperative urban services, intimately related to the essential functions of municipal government, depends upon a virile and continuous local con, trol. But local control, under private ownership, is subject to a fundamental infirmity which it has in common with state regulation, namely, the paralyzing influence of the jughandled jurisdiction of the Federal courts. These courts can do nothing for the cities or for the consumers; their jurisdiction is obtained solely for the purpose of protecting the companies. It follows that the road to utility service in the best sense of that term is through Municipal Home Rule, and the road to Municipal Home Rule is through public ownership. The next question is, what is the road to public ownership? The friends of the indeterminate permit point to its provisions and say that it enables a city to take over the utilities whenever it wants to. But there's a rub! Unless the city has the legal power to raise the money required to pay for the utilities, the effective credit to do so, and the educated will for initiative and self reliance, the mere words that declare an indeterminate permit terminable are mean, ingless. So far as this type of franchise is linked to state control, it tends to unfit cities for municipal operation by shutting them out of the picture while private operation continues. And the indeterminate permit in its characteristic form does not remove the financial limitations placed by constitution and statute upon the city's borrowing and taxing powers, and does not affirmatively confer financial powers upon the municipality. The danger that lies in terminable permit legislation such as has been proposed in Illinois is in the fact that it would give the utilities an indefinite lease of life without requiring them ever to come back to the municipality for an accounting of their stewardship, and without giving the municipality any effective power to cut theirlease of life short. Under the indeterminate permit. The companies and their good or Ill behavior has little or nothing to do with it.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland and the Home Rule Movement The great tendency which has been so marked a feature of Irish life in the course of the last decade to turn the attention of the people towards efforts at self improvement and the development of self-reliance without regard to English aid, English neglect, or English Opinion, excellent though it has been in every other respect, has had this one drawback - that there has grown up a generation of Englishmen, well intentioned towards our country, to whom the problems of Irish Government are an unknown quantity. The ignorance of Irish affairs in England is due partly to ourselves, but also to a natural heed lessness arising from distance and preoccupation with problems with which Englishmen are more intimately concerned.
