Take a ErickHome Peter H Bartliff's Old Stand PHONE 1 r� Home Rule for Ireland Jurisdiction of Proposed Parliaments—Special Clause With Regard to Freemasons—British Parliament Supreme. Ireland is to have two parliaments and a council. The north and south are each to 'rave their own government. 10ut Ireland will continue to elect mem- bers, though in reduced number, to the Commons of the QInited Kingdom, and its pariiametns will, to a certain extent, 'be subsidiary to the British parliament, The latter body retains the right to Tess acts which infringe upon the juris- diction of the Irish houses. In that fut- ure, event, any trick legislation upon the same subject "shall be read subject to the act of the parliament of the United Kingdom, and so far it is repugnant to shat act, shall be void." And when the parliaments of north and south are con- stituted they will have'no power to re- peal or alter any act which the British ' ;parliament may thereafter pass with re- gard to matters otherwise conning with- in Irish jurisdiction. There are, in additition, certain sub - Teets excluded expressly from the pow- ers of the two Irish parliaments. They sannot confer titles of honor or deal witfr coinage, treason or naturalization. do ma•ftere of Inmperial concern, they will not be allowed to interfere. Ex= ternal trade and commerce,/will be out of their control. The smoking of war ,err peace, the conduct of foreign relat- Ilons, the establishment of military or naval forces—these also will be beyond their jurisdiction, Wider Powers For Union Government if, however the two parliaments agree upon one parliament for the whole of Ireland, it will have wider powers than the separate governments. It will be given charge of the supreme courts of, Southern and Northern Ire- land. Also, the joint exchequer board is then to take into consideration the trtinsfer to the united parliament of the power'to impose customs and excise, and will report thereon to the British and Irish parliaments. In the meantime, certain other sub- jects are temporarily reserved to United Kingdom control; among therm, the postal service , postoffice and trustee savings bank, designs for stamps, the registration of deeds and the public re- cord office of Ireland, These, how- ever, can be transferred to the Council of Ireland on request of the two par- liaments. Land purchase is also reserv- ed to the British government, imperial credit being necessary for its comple- tion. • • s,! Outside of these limitations, the powers of the Irish parliaments will be very broad. They may respectively make laws for the peace, order and good government of the north and south. They !make new laws or alter existing laws with regard to agriculture, friendly societies, trade unities, child lobar, eounty courts and Magistrates, criminal law, death duties, education, r fa. titles,. health insurance, 1tosUikals, housing, reform:401ies, landlord and tenant, rate of interest, liquor control, urines and minerals, motor licensing, old age ,pensions, piers and harbors, prisons, .public health, public works, regulation of trades, unemploynteht boards—these are only a few of the items. in Canada, some of the ttrattet's would be within federal and some with- in provincial jurisditeion, Special Law as to Freennaaons ,A peculiar feature of the new Govern - ;pent of Ireland Actis the provision as to.Freemasons, The law says; "Itdis hereby declared that existing enactments relative to unlawful aalhs or unlawful assemblies le Ireland do not apply to the meetings or proceedings of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Ireland, or of any lodge or society recognizedby that, Grand Lodge. "Neither parliament shall have power to abrogate or affect prejudicially any privilege or exemption of the Grand Lodge of Freemasons in Ireland, or any lodge or society recognized by that Grand Lodge, which Is enjoyed either by law or custom at the thee of the Passing of this act." ,.The casual reader may conclude that there are on the whole quite a number of matters with which the parliaments of Ireland. will not be allowed to deal• It is lo be borne in mind, however, that the country is not being given inde- pendence or even being made a separate dominion, "The supreme authority of the parliament of the United Kingdom shall remain unaffected and undiminish- ed over all persons, matters and things in Ireland and every„part thereof.” Children Cry FOR c LETCHE'R'S ta'A S T C) R t A 1t a, * HURON COUNTY NEWS IN BRIEF '" Seaforth:—A meeting was held in the 0, W, Y.
