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.

Book The Truth About Home Rule  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Truth About Home Rule Classic Reprint written by Pembroke Wicks and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About Home Rule The misfortunes of Ireland are a commonplace of history. During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the country was devastated by rebellions, insurrections, and religious persecution, while her industrial activities were strangled by the short-sighted jealousy of English commercial interests. After the Union in 1800 the restoration of Irish prosperity was to some extent retarded by a combination of political blunders and the genesis of a period of violent and criminal agitation following on the terrible misery caused by the potato famine. This is the aspect that those who only know Ireland through the voice of the agitator love to dwell upon. But the dawn of the twentieth century witnessed the effects of the deliberate policy of the regeneration of Ireland, begun by the Unionist party in the eighties and carried out in the face of persistent obstruction.

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.

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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule Problems A consideration which influenced us in our meetings and in our desire to publish this Volume has been the belief that it is the duty Of all anxious for a Home Rule policy to make up' minds beforehand on the important details Of the measure. The last two Bills were killed largely by the attacks made on details we must not be caught napping once more. Some would have us wait till the Government have produced their Bill, but that might be too late. On such matters the views Of the country always prevail in the long run: it is better that such views should be evoked beforehand, not afterwards, especially, in regard to acute points of controversy. Moreover, the impetus to carry through Home Rule will be far greater if an interest in its details has been previously aroused by widespread consideration and discussion..

Glkdstone peculiarly affects of an announcement that he has definitely adopted the policy of Home Rule for Ireland.

Gladstone's responsibility for the circulation of statements so well calculated to disturb the public mind. Pain ful as?

  • Author : Honor Sachs
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2015-10-27
  • ISBN : 030021653X
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book Home Rule written by Honor Sachs and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On America’s western frontier, myths of prosperity concealed the brutal conditions endured by women, slaves, orphans, and the poor. As poverty and unrest took root in eighteenth-century Kentucky, western lawmakers championed ideas about whiteness, manhood, and patriarchal authority to help stabilize a politically fractious frontier. Honor Sachs combines rigorous scholarship with an engaging narrative to examine how conditions in Kentucky facilitated the expansion of rights for white men in ways that would become a model for citizenship in the country as a whole. Endorsed by many prominent western historians, this groundbreaking work is a major contribution to frontier scholarship.

Download or read book Home Rule written by John Joseph Horgan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule: A Critical Consideration I AM indebted to the Editor of the leader for permis sion to republish in book form the following articles, which first appeared in his paper and were written at his request. They are an attempt to explain in a clear and businesslike way what Nationalist Ireland means by Home Rule. My object in writing them was two fold., First to awaken intelligent discussion in Ireland concerning the details of Home Rule, and secondly to place a clear statement of Ireland's demand before fair minded Englishmen. It was indeed 'to compass the second of these objects that this book has been pub lished. I have taken as the standard for discussion the Home Rule Bill of 1893, because I do not believe, that Irish public opinion will be satisfied with anything less, and because I hope that English statesmen will have the courage and foresight to give us something more. One specious argument is frequently used against a generous Home Rule Bill by politicians of the Devolu tion school. Stated shortly it amounts to this, that Home Rule should be granted by instalments because Ireland is not prepared for a measure of full self-govern ment. Nothing could be more absurd. The adminis tretiye government of every country is really carried on by the permanent officials. The representatives of the people who form the party government of the day simply direct and influence the permanent officials. Nowhere is this more apparent than in England, where the government of the day always acts on consultation.
