RULE BILL Control of Customs and Excise not Conceded the New Irish Parliament A despatch froin London soys : The cardinal principle of the pre- Home Hule Bill. Premier As qnith Mated on Thursday, is the supreme authority of the Imperial Parliament, while ut the t-anic time real autonomy is conferred on Ire- land in regard to Irish concerns. The bill provides for the estab- lishment of an Irish Parliament, consisting of a Senate and a House of ( 'ominous with power to make lav. s for peace, oroVr and good gov- ernment in Ireland. The bill provi<les that the mat- ters to be excluded from the control uf the Irish Parliament are. the 1'rown, the army and the navv. Ini- pcrial affaiis, the Irish land pur- chase. and the old age pension and national jnsunrice acts, the Irish <-<'iistabulary. the post-oflive savings hanks and public loans. in addition to th"--" excluded by the Home RuK bill of 1893, which left the customs and cxein- under the con- trol of the Imperial Government. The Irish Constabulary is to bo automatically transferred to the Ii ish Government a f tor six years, and power is given by the, bill to tin- Irish Parliament, to demand the transfer of the old age pensions and Insurance Act to it? control on giv- ing a year's notice to the Imperial Government. The Irish Parliament is debarred from altering the Home Rule bill or the power to appeal to the Privy Council. Provision is made for the protec- tion of religious equality in Ire- land, and stipulating that the Irish Parliament cannot make law. directly or indirectly, to establish or to endow any religion, or to pro- hibit the free, exercise thereof, or to give a preference or privilege to any religion or to make any reli- gious ceremony a condition of vnli- dity of any marriage. The Ixuxl Lieutenant of Ireland is to have the powe.r to veto or sus- pend any bill on the instruction of the Imperial Executive, Any question regarding the inter- pretation of the Home Huh.' bill is to be settled by appeal to the Judi- cial Committee of the Privy Coun- cil. The Irish Senate is fo consist of fcirty members, and the House of Representatives of 1G-I, of which Ul- ster is to have 59 and the Universi- ties two. The Senate is to be composed of nominated members. In the first instance, the Imperial Executive is to control the nominations with a view to assuring the representation of the minority. The nominations are to he for a fixed term, mid as the members retire, by rotation the vacancies will b:- filled by the Irish Kxrcntive. In case of disagree- ment the two Houses arc to sit in joint session. The I/jrd Lieulenant is to bo head i>f the Kxcciitive. There will DC no religious bar, and he will hold) oflice for a fixed term. The authority of the Executive is tn b;- < ii cxtrnsivc with that of the Irish Parliament. The 164 repre- sentatives are to be elected by the existing constituencies, but no con- stituency is to have less than 27,000 population. The. collection of all taxes is to remain in the. Imperial service, and they will be paid into the Imperial Exchequer, which is to pay over to the Irish Executive an amount equivalent to the expenditure^ on Irish services at the time 'of the parsing of the Act. An additional and insurance schemes, sum of $2,500,000 is to be paid to as he sometimes names SILENT JOHN BURNS. John Burns is going down to Lan- cashire, where he will shake off "the cold chain of silence that has hung o'er him long." English gos- sips, who will insist on putting two and two together so as to make five, assert that his silence arises from the fact that there is no love lost between him and Mr. Lloyd George, who was not sufficiently careful to ascertain John's views about old age pensions, budgets, "J.

It has been well said that Clti.i; ,s the pivot of the grerxt movement: of to-day, and that in Asia the 20tl entury is t'hina's, as it is Canada's n America. China is now the seen* jf a transformation, the must mar- velous in history, and since, in this apidly shrinking world, Canada and China are now neighbors, it is mportnnt that such neighbors should be well disposed to each >ther. The present famine in China is he most distressing in m.iiiy years ind comes at a time when the coun- ry is filled with the anxieties of he revolution and the new govern- ment is short of funds to carry on he administration or give relief to he suffering districts. When we consider the situation of China in the midst of this deluge f troubles and contrast it with our >wn land, so favored by heaven with >rosperity in every province, we nay well ask whether the world has >ver witnessed such an appalling need on the one side and such an opportunity to help on the other. If we reflect that a si.igle night's untimely frost would blight our own harvest, we will not deny our de- pendence upon the providence of God for our nation's prosperity. We could not close our ears to this cry for help without fearing a si'iii lar indifference if our own nation were sunk in like miseries. If we had six successive failures of crops, as in some provinces of China, fol- lowed in the last year by floods that swept away every vestige of food, where would be the enthusiasm, the boasts of material wealth, the pride of empire ami all the self-glorifica- tion of human achievement that now resound fnm the prairie to ihe mount nin and tho sea,' Seeing, then, that it is by no special merit of our own that the clouds have dropped fatness upon us, what sh'iuid our duty be but to save the starving millions \>f China with the superabundance of Canada. The Chinese are proverbially a grateful people, and there eon Id be no iiner expression of international good will or a better antidote to racial animosities than for one nation to come to the aid of another in such a time of trial. It would come back to Canada in reciprocal gooc dwill. a".d even in trade, many fold. The United States, by refunding part of the Huxer indemnity, made a deep impression upon China, a'ul is already reaping a reward, for that country appears in the popular imagination as the only friend of the new Chinese nation. Canada has now the clianee i>f winning the friendship of China to an equal ox- tent, and as a Christian nation we can makV no mistake in an caniest attempt to save human life.
