Book The Case for Home Rule  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Case for Home Rule Classic Reprint written by Justin Huntly McCarthy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Case for Home Rule Mr. Dicey's book, as the only serious presentation of the case against Home Rule, calls for the serious consideration of those against whom it is chiefly levelled. A volume ushered into the world with so much ceremony, accepted as a sort of gospel by a certain party, and affecting to be so sweepingly destructive of a great cause, demands a patient consideration. The book is in some sense a challenge, and I have ventured to lift the glove. Perhaps I should scarcely have so ventured if I had known earlier of Mr. Morley's purpose, but I was only aware of his intention of replying to Mr. Dicey in the pages of the Nineteenth Century when I was within measurable dis tance of the end of my own work. While, however, this book is intended in the main as a reply to Mr. Dicey's volume, it is not limited solely to that purpose, but is meant at the same time to set forth the real meaning of the movement for Home Rule, the meaning which Mr. Dicey has set himself to obscure and the movement which he has striven to retard.

Book England s Case Against Home Rule  Classic Reprint

Download or read book England s Case Against Home Rule Classic Reprint written by Albert Venn Dicey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-10 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from England's Case Against Home Rule Three months have elapsed since the first publication of this book. The period is short, but meanwhile events have occurred which strengthen two at least of the posi tions maintained in England's Case against Home Rule.' The Gladstonian constitution, I contended, failed to fulfil the conditions which it was meant to satisfy. That this is so is all but admitted even by Home Rulers. The defence of the Gladstonian constitution has been' abandoned, if not by its author, at least by his followers. Few indeed are the eulogies which since the dissolution of Parliament have been pronounced by the advocates of Home Rule on the Government of Ireland Bill. Criticism' has not missed its mark; the vital defects of the measure pressed last summer on the acceptance of Parliament have' been made patent to all the world. Throughout my statement of the case against Home Rule the opinion is maintained that the discontent of the: Irish people is due far more to agrarian than to political causes.

Book Against Home Rule

Download or read book Against Home Rule written by Arthur J. Balfour and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Against Home Rule: The Case for the Union This book, for which I have been asked to write a short preface, presents the case against Home Rule for Ireland The articles are written by men who not only have a complete grasp of the subjects upon which they write, but who in most cases, from their past experience and from their personal influence, are well entitled to outline the Irish policy of the Unionist Party. Ours is not merely a policy of hostility to Home Rule, but it is, as it has always been, a constructive policy for the regeneration of Ireland. We are opposed to Home Rule because, in our belief, it would seriously weaken our national position; because it would put a stop to the remarkable increase of prosperity in Ireland which has resulted from the Land Purchase Act; and because it would inflict intolerable injustice on the minority in Ireland, who believe that under a Government controlled by the men who dominate the United Irish League neither their civil nor their religious liberty would be safe. To create within the United Kingdom a separate Parliament with an Executive Government responsible to that Parliament would at the best mean a danger of friction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule: A Reprint From the Times of Recent Articles and Letters A profound impression was made yesterday by; the circulation throughchannels some of which mb. Glkdstone peculiarly affects of an announcement that he has definitely adopted the policy of Home Rule for Ireland. Certain details were added, varying in different versions, and in the course of the day there appeared the inevitable telegram from Mn. Gladstone declaring that no accurate representation of his views is to be found save in. His own public utterances. Every one is at liberty to form his own opinion Upon glosses and em bellishments all of which are repudiated, as well as upon the precise degree of mr. Gladstone's responsibility for the circulation of statements so well calculated to disturb the public mind. Pain ful as? Is the impression produced in this country, it is weak compared with the sensation made in Dublin, where, as our Correspondent informs us this morning, the intelligence was received with absolute dismay.

Book The Home Rule Movement  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Home Rule Movement Classic Reprint written by Michael MacDonagh and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home Rule Movement My friend, John O'Connor Power, once famous as "the Member for Mayo," gave me, shortly before his death in February, 1919, the papers he had collected in the course of his unique political career - commencing as an Irish Fenian and ending as a British Liberal. "Make what use you like of them," he says in his letter to me, "subject to one condition - they must not be made the basis of an attack upon any Irishman." It was easy for me to set O'Connor Powers mind at rest on that point. I am a historical writer, - of a sort, perhaps; but, most certainly, not a political pamphleteer. As such, I have no antipathies or prejudices. As such, I do not feel myself called upon to defend and justify, any more than I do to: . condemn and assail. What I like to think I have is sympathy with the aspirations of human nature, and pity for its struggles in the coil of adverse Fate. My sole object is simply to try to describe, to explain, to interpret, the principles and personalities of the Home Rule Movement from its rise under Isaac Butt in 1870 to its fall under John Dillon in 1918, as just one act in the extraordinary political and social drama of Ireland.

Book Sidelights on the Home Rule Movement  Classic Reprint

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sidelights on the Home Rule Movement IT is often difficult to find a suitable name for a child. Far more difficult is it to find a suit able title for a book. For while a name may be chosen just because it is borne by some one else, a book must have a title peculiar to itself. The title of the present work satisfies at least that condition. It has the further merit indeed of indicating that the scope of these pages is limited. For, apart from the personal element which per vades them, they contain but little save what is either not generally known, or generally mis understood. Party politics are rigidly ex cluded, as is everything that would savour of appeals to prejudice or passion.

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.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law and the Practice of Municipal Home Rule Owing to important differences from state to state not only in the phraseology of home rule provisions but also in the history of these provisions before the courts, it has seemed advisable to treat the subject-matter of the text by states rather than by topics. What ever disadvantages inhere in this method of approach have been sought to be overcome by frequent cross-references in the text and cross-citations in the notes.

Book The Home Rule Act of Texas  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Home Rule Act of Texas Classic Reprint written by University Of Texas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home-Rule Act of Texas The great significance of the home rule amendment to the Constitution of Texas, adopted by popular vote in November, 1912, and of the enabling act passed in April, 1913, in exeem tion of the amendment is shown by the fact that no less than thirty-nine cities of. Texas have already taken action under this legislation. This represents about seventy-five per cent of the cities over 5000 population in the state, which by the terms of the amendment are entitled to take advantage of the home rule charter powers. Of these thirty-nine cities that have ai ready taken action, twenty have adopted entirely new. Charters and the rest have amended existing charters. Interest in the subject of home rule charter making continues to increase in the cities of Texas and as all action of this kind must be based on the constitutional amendment and enabling act there is a great demand for copies of this legislation. The enabling act, which repeats verbatim in its first paragraph the constitutional amendment, is not available in separate form but only in the general laws of the Regular Session of the Thirty third Legislature. As this source is not easily available to the many persons interested in examining the law with a View to determining the advisability of taking action thereunder in a particular city it has seemed desirable, in View of the many requests for the same, to prepare a copy of the law for free distribution to all citizens of Texas. This should not only be of value in aiding persons already interested in the possibilities of home rule charter action in their city, but may also help to stim ulete interest among others who have not had the opportunity of seeing what the home rule legislation offers. In the hope that both of these objects may in a large measure be fulfilled the present reprint of the home rule amendment and enabling act has been prepared.

Book Home Rule in Iowa  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Home Rule in Iowa Classic Reprint written by O. K. Patton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule in Iowa IN these days there is much said and written concerning home rule in local government. And yet, home rule is not a new idea in America a proposed experiment in government. On the contrary, home rule has long been a cherished political heritage. But how many people to day have a clear notion of what home rule means! What is home rule in Iowa? To answer this question is the purpose of the pages that follow. Neither the time nor the means have been available for an exhaustive study of all of the phases of home rule, either in this State or in the other Common wealths of the Union. An attempt has been made, how ever, to trace briefly the development of home rule as a factor in local government, to indicate the present posi tion of the local areas in Iowa and the resulting evils of special legislation, to point out the necessity and effects of classification, to show the impracticability of rigid uni formity in the government of local areas, to present the home rule charter system in the light of its successes and shortcomings, and to suggest a general division between State and local functions. The real scope and limitations of the paper can best be indicated by pointing out the actual studies made by the writer in its preparation.
