It providesa House of Commons and Senate for Northern Ireland (Ulster minus tlree 'Catholic counties), and the. same for Southern Ireland. There is also to be a Council of Ireland, to which each parliament will appoint members. But'ireland is noted for doing the unexpected thing. and people are already asking what will trap= lien if either the northern or southern parliaments refuse to function. , That contingency has been provided for, In case either parliament declines to act, it will be dissolved and its place will be ,taken by a legislative assembly appointed by His Majesty, and the gov- ernment will 'be administered by the ford lieutenant with the assistance of n eoinnlittee of members of the Privy Council of L•elaud, appointed for the purpose by His Majesty, Needless to say, this system of "crown colony gov- ernment" hill only be imposed upon @IL Do not snuffer k another day with Itohing Bleed- ing, or No ;` surgical oper- ation required, .

That is, there might be such a thing as Northern Ireland under its awn parliament side by side with Southern Ireland under an irr;- perially-appointed executive, or vice versa. A parliament will be presumed to have failed to organize if, within fourteen days after the date fixed for rt3 meeting, a majority of the members of its house of Commons have neglected to take their declaration of office. This declaration is that • "1 do swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to His Majesty King George, his heirs and successors ac- cording to law, so help hoe God." Union Parliament Is Comtemplated Belt if the framers of the neev act were pessimistic enough to foresee the possibility of disinclination to accept Home Rule, they were also optimistic enough to slake provision for a possible I union of the north and south. By mut- k ual agreement the two parliaments may I terminate partition and set up one pa`- If Hameln and one government for the whole of Ireland, 1111 the meantime the Council of Ireland will be the link be- tween then!, An absolute majority of members in each House of Commons will be sufficient to bring about the union. It is left entirely to the Par - parliament is formed, the Council of Ireland will disappear, acid the powers it possesses will tie vested in the new parliament. 1t shall also have all the :cowers and duties of the parliaments of the north and the south so far as their acts constituting it shall provide, in- cluding all powers as to taxation, and if the partition parliaments decide to transfer all their powers to the new union parliament, they shall then cease to exist. Thus there may finally be one parliament for all Ireland, with or with- out subsidiary parliaments in the north and the south as these latter parlia- ments themselves decide, Use Proportional Representation System In the meantime. there is to be a House of Commons and a Senate of the north and a House of Commons and a Senate of the South, The mem- bers of the House of Commons are to be elected by'the people of Ireland (men and women) on the proportional representation system. Northern Ireland will have a compar- atively small population -a million and tt quarter, or practically the same as that of the dominion of New Zealand. NewZealand has an elective Council of 37 members and a House of Represen- tatives of 80 members. Northern Ire- land will have, besides its Senate, a House of 'Commons of 52 members.

TWO SIDES 'TO STORY MAKING MOUNTAINS OUT OF MOLE HILLS. t (Farmer's Sun) Anothee' mountain has been made out, of a hale -hill Prof, Lewis Wood, of the Western Uniersity; and Mr J. J. re' ein Morrison, of the U. F. 0, a b, g gate sured because the one wrote for, and the other sent him, a list of club sec retaries in Huro1 and Middlesex. Prof. Wood,. being interested in the Hydro' question as it concerned Hie electrification of the London, Huron and Bruce railroad, had a perfect right to circularize the Farmers' Clubs and present his views •on that or any other question to the Club. members. Mr,. Morrision had a perfect right to send him a list of .the Club secretaries is those two counties.' , , As a matter of fact, . the U. 'F. 0. secretary is continually sendiieg out lists of Club secretaries to educa- tional workers, those interested 'in moral gaestioes, such as temperance, etc., and made no exception in this case. One of the aims of the U. F. 0, is to give the farmers the fullest possible information on the questions of the day and allow them an oppor- tunity to express their opinions as freely as city people do. Apparently a section of the city papers do not Want that, These city papers never utter a word of criticism when the Hydro Association send out propaganda from from the Ilydro offices in this city at the public expense. Prof, Wood was doing at his own expense what the Hydro Associallon is doing at the pub- lic's expense. .it is all 'part of the pro -Hydro pol- icy to shriek from the housetops if any person questions their plans or policies -"the king cando no wrong" to them, They are not broad enough to adopt a policy of give and take - to invite the fullest investigation and submit` their project. ' to the closest scrutiny. They wanta ole -sided pro- paganda carried on. 0. a` it WHY OPPOSE INQUIRY (Toronro. Globe) The municipalities served by. the London, Huron & Bruce Railway, a branch of the Grand Trunk running from London to Wiugham through. one of the best farthing sections of the Province, are interested ht a. proposal to electrify the line, leaving its opera- tion to the Hydro -Electric Commission if it could be detached from the Nat- ional System. The. project is. entirely unofficial and would be, of course, con- tingent upon the good will of the Nat- ional Railways management. As a stearal road the L. H. & 5„ has not been satisfactory -few branch lines in Ont- ario are -and biose who favor the change believe that electrification would result in a more expeditious and con- venient frieght and passenger service, which would be of great benefit to the whole district. At London connections could be made with. the London & Port Stanley Railway, the fast electric 1111e to Lake Erie, affording then. most direct route to a lake port. The proposal is no part of the Hydro - radial schemes of the Hydro -electric Commission, and Sir Adam Beck says that no opinion can be formed until the fact's are assembled by competent ex- perts. The plan is meeting with active opposition in some quarters,' and Perm - ere. Clubs in the district traversed by the L. 11, & 13.

M , M• FIGURES OF DR. WOOD ON ELECTRI- FICATION COSTS MISLEADING. (London Free Press) • Commenting on tho estimated mast of electrifying the London, liur\m & Bruce branch of the G. 'left, 4, V•Buchanan, !teenager gf the"utilities, to -day pointed out that the estlinated increase arrived at by Dr. L, te: Wood, of West- ern University; is based on an aritilnle- tient average instead' of a use average. Using Dr, 'Wood's own figures, he proGes that the cost of electrification to -day would not be more than 47 and one-half per cent.. greater than in 191 5, whereas,rpr, Wood . says that the in- crease would be 155 per cent, Mr. Buchanan believes that if elec- trification should'receive saliction and work 'begun within one year of this date, that the cost would not be more than 15 par cent, in excess of electrify- ing the L, & P. S. R., in 1915, it is worth nothing that oopper is now selling for 67 per cent. less than in 1915 -actually below the pre-war level, This means that copper, on which ma- terial 20 per cent, of radial construct Hon costs are based, actually costs less now than before 1914. The difference between an arithmeti- cal average, such as Dr. Wood used, and a weight average, as Mr. Buchanan uses, is the difference between striking an average between a number of steam vessels in a harbor. There are 20 ves- sels. Among them is the Aquitaine, tile Leviathan and also a number of tug boats. One boat is one -twentieth of. the total number at anchor, but that one bloat does not by any means rep- resent' the average of tonnage, Air, Buchanan's statement follows: "Dr. Wood bases the cost of the elec- trification of the L. 1i. & 13, Railway on the arithmetical average of 14 items chosen arbitrarily.. That this basis is ridiculous can be easily seen when it is considered that he gives as 111uc11 weight to the increase in asbestos (580 per cent.) as he does to copper (58 per cent.) Of the total 'cost of the electric railway nearly 20 per cent is for cop- per while there is not half of 1 per cent for asbestos, .With Dr, Wood's figures asbestos is therefore given 28 times the weight it ought to have, while copper is only ole -third times its proper value. He also makes the- error of repeating a number of items, as the last seven items are raw material and are includ- ed in the first seven which are mama - lectured articles. "if you deal only with raw materials and take present day prices, and not prices of July, 1920, which were un- doubtedly peak prices, you would get something like the following: Copper, decrease 67' per cent., a- mount used 20 per cent., decrease 13.0 per cent. Steel, increase 30 per cent.,., amount used 20 per cent., increase 60 per cent. Pig iron, increase 63 per cent , a- mount used 30 per cent., increase 18.9 per cent. Labor, increase 120 per cent. amount used 30 „per cent., ' increase 36,0 per cent. "The result shows therefore, an in- crease of 4714 per cent: instead of 15,0 per. cent,, but ,this is nbt intended to be used for calculating 111e cost of electrifying a railway to -day, but only to s11ov that Dr, Wood's figures are grossly misleading."

Much of the goods offered by the county merchants was bought several years' ago before the high prices prevailed and are now offered at a price less than the depart- mental store can buy wholesale, Newspapers' Give Quick Service Through the newspapers, the ad vertiser can cover completely any local market, They make it possible' to get quick action for the adver- tiser, 'rhe 'Saturday Evening Post closes its forms two months before date bf issue.

On the other hande he can get into the newspaper almost over night. Income Taxation in many cases persons who re- ceive an income fiat is below the taxable rate, inquire whether they are required to fill the papers. Very often the departments ask for these re- ports, for they have no exact code ,+y which to judge a man's income. Smile - times a elan who wears t, suit that could not be found in a second-hand store, is worth thousands, tend the persons wlio slake the best showing are low down in the scale of income re- ceivers.
