Supported by even Lord Northcliffe, who has been at outs with Premier Lloyd George for some time past, the latest pro- posals brought into the House of Commons in solution of the problem of governing Ireland satisfactorily seem to give general satisfaction—outside of Ireland. There is one thing which Great Britain Will not stand for, and which seems to be at the back of the mind of at leaSt a proportion of Irishmen and that is separa- tion from the Crown. And just how much the new parliamentary proposals will be appreciated by the Irishmen will remain to be seen. They have been asking for Home Rule for a long time now. It seems likely that they are now going to get what they have asked so long for. Accoiding to yesterday's press dispatches, there seemed to be some soupeon of doubt in London as to whether the Sin Fein section of Ireland would accept the new proposals, They resisted the partition of Ireland into two areas previously, but on this occasion the idea of partition ts ingenu- ously got round by the formation of the joint council appointed from both parliaments. This council shall be representative of all Ireland, equally of both parties. New Council May Become Real Legislative Authority. To begin with, limited powers will be given to this new council. Certain services will be reserved as the exclusive prov- ince of Imperial Parliament, but among these services will be several—customs, for instafNce—-which may be transferred to the Council. Transference will take place, without any other for- mality, if and when both the Irish Parliaments pass resolutions to this effect. Gradually, therefore, if the scheme works out, as ils sponsors think it will, Ireland will secure powers not dissimilar with those possessed by the Cominion parliaments, and tue Council of All Ireland, in course of time, become the All Ireland Parliament. .The ideal will thus be reached by a process of evo- lution—it may be slow, but the machinery will exist for the bringing together of the two rival sectious. Hope at Last to Settle A Troublesome Question. No one who has studied the Irish question will deny that in this novel scheme there is at last hope of a settlement. It respects the opinions of Ulster and fulfills the pledge of no coercion, and it avoids, by the provision of a Council of All Ire- land, the rock of partition on which former attempts to settle the question have split. It will now rest with the Irish people themselves whether they desire union. The financial provision of £1,000,000 for the preliminary expenses of each of the two new parliaments ought to be ample and just so soon as the new Council is formed, it will have the powers of arranging whatever taxation it may consider proper for the providing of the necessary supplies to carry on the country. How the Irish will govern ihemselves will be watched with considerable interest. Home Rule for Scotland and Wales. ; The devolution committee of the House of Commons having agreed to the establishment of a subordinate legislature for Scot- land, has also come to a similar conélusion in the case of Wales. No forma! decision has been come to in regard to England, al- though the majoricy of the committee prefer one national legisla- ture for the whole country. The idea is to relieve the Imperial Parliament of a whoie lot of congestion. Vhere are numberless local things which could be settled by a lesser authority than the House of Commous, which will then have more time at its dis- posal for Imperial matters. With so much business taken off its hands by the subordinate legislatures, representation to St. Stephens will have to be reduced, A total reconstruction of the whole British Parliamentary system appears to be not so very far off. THE DAILY NEWS THEDAILY BISERY OF ILL-HEALTH Three Years of Suffering uickly Relieved by “FRUIT-A-TIVES : MR. GASPARD DUBORD 159 Avenue Pius IX, Montreal. “For three years, I was a terrible sufferer from Dyspepsia and my general health was very’ bad. I consulted a physician and took his medicine and faithfully earried out his instructions; but I did not improve and finally the doctor told me I could not be cured. At this time, a friend advised me to try ‘Fruitetives’ and I did so. After taking two boxes of ‘fruit-c tives’, I was greatly relieved; and gradually this marvelous fruit medicine made me completely well. My digestion and general health are splendid—all of which I owe to “Fruit-a-tives”’. GASPARD DUBORD. 50c.a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size, 25e.
