THE MOUERN SIMMER SCHOOL.

One of the remarkable signs of the times
is the growth of summer schools. under which
name may be included all summer assemblies.
religious sociological or educational Whether
or not they are to be a permanent feature of
civilization may be open to question but it
cannot be denied that for the time at least
they have legitimate reason for being. In
ancient Greece and Rome nearly all the schools
Of philosophy were csotcric. They neither ex-
pectod nor desired to make converts among the
multitude who were regarded as incapable of
understanding the questions discussed This
was also substantially true of the medieval
schools of philosophy and even the philoso-
piers of the eighteenth century were content
TO appeal only to the small inner circle of
kindred spirits, who by education or intelli-
gcncc were qualified to take part in their
spcculations.
The modern democratic movement of civil
ization is changing all that II is wrestling
not only political. but social and intellectual
power, out of the hands of the few who claimed
to WELD it by divine right and is lodging it
in the hands of the masses. Whatever NAV
be the ultimate outcome Of this movement. it
has killed csotcrcism. whether in religion,

hope of resurrection. The teachers and lead
ers of this age must have message for all

INCONSISTENCY on ALL SIDES.

1t is easy to convict Mr. Gladstone of in
consistency and sharp parliamentary practice
in transforming the Home Rule bill at critical
stages. Remarkable as is his talent for hair
splitting polcmcs, it is hardly practicable for
him to reconcile with previous pledges his
action in arming the eighty Irish members re-
tanned at Westminster with full legislative
powers. The abrupt withdrawal of the in
and out section, and the railroading Of the
ninth clause by closure through the Com
mons, were perhaps the sharpcst and most
arbitrary expedient> to which the old paria-
mentary hand has ever had recourse The
text of the Home Rule bill of 1886 and long
array Of subsequent declarations on his part
may be cited as proofs of glarng inconsis-
tency. We do not consider it possible either
for Mr. Gladstone or for his associates to pre-
sent a valid defence against structures of this
kind.
On the other hand the Unonists themselves
are in glass houses and cannot throw stones
1t is as easy TO convict them of inconsistency
as it is to condemn Mr. Gladstone on the same
ground. When the first Home Rule bill was
introduced in 1856 Mr.. Gladstone desired to
deal practically with Ireland as self-govcrn-
Westminster. This logical scheme
Mr.. Pamcll and his associates were Indifferent
to the retention of the Irish members What
they wanted was legislative autonomy for the
island. The withdrawal of the Irish members
would have relieved the Irish block on lcgis-
latoh and have enabled Parliament to devote
itself to English, Scotch and Welsh affairs.
1t would have put an end to obstruction tao
tics and Irish agitation at Westminster, of
which Conservatives and Liberals were alike
weary unto death The UnonstS practically
made their fight on the retention of the Irish
members. They raised constitutional obicc-
tons to the taxation of Ireland without repre-
sentation at Westminster, and urged the re-
tenton of the Irish members in the interest
of United Kingdom. This was the rock on
which the Liberal party was wrecked. If Mr..
Gladstone had been willing to concedc this
point at an early stage, his bill might have
passed the second reading and Mr.. Chamber
lain himself have been numbered to-day among
his supporters. AS it was. the Liberal Union
lists deserted him, and he was defeated in the
Commons and in the general elections.
The conditions have now changed. Mr..
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1893-07-16

Gladstone partially adapted himself to the
JJnionist requirements of 1886 when he pro-
vided in his second Home Rule bill for the
islands representation at Westminster on the
basis of population and he completed the
process when he suddenly withdrew all re-
strictions upon the legislative action of the
Irish members. He abandoned his colonial
scheme and conformed to the former umonist
idea that Pa Lament should represent united
and not "A di,membcrcd Kingdom. but what
was the attitude of the lnlonists! They
voted last week in successive divisions IN favor
of full representation. total exclusion ana par
tial retention in fractions ranging from ~ to
% and finally they were conhi'teu ID! 'heir
leader Mr. Balfom. to the policy Of prohibit
ing Irish members from having any voice IN
the business of the Empire there could hard
" have been p more complete reputation OF
Inionist pledges and arguments OF inc period
If the first Home Rule bill than was involved
in these cratic votes.
50 far rs inconsistency is concerned there
i little 70 choose between Mr.. GladStonc's
course and the Unonst tactics. Lord Bcacons
fields cynical remark a good deal has hap
pened since then" will justify with equal force
the anomalies on either side. Mr. Glad,tones
ANTAGONISTS in 1856 insisted upon the retention
Of the Irish members because it was con-
vcnicnt ground of attack When the con-
cossiOn is made they offer strenuous obIcc-
tons TO Irish representation with luii lcgis-
lative powers. and thereby convict themselves
of inconsistency: but they consider II an ef-
fcctive method of fighting the Grand Old Man.
On the other hand the Prime Minister. instead
Of excluding the Irish members altogether, as
he meant to do in 1886, or OF giving them re-
strict d power of voting within narrow range,
as he proposed doing when the resent session
oponcd. has abandoned his ground completely
and contcntad himself with reducing the num-
her of representatives from 1913 To 50 without
modifying their legislative privileges. lie has
done this. not because he approves OF the
changes. but because il was necessary TO Keep
his Cabinet together and TO hold his precarlous
majority. In the last resort be was governed
bv cypcdency and political necessity.
The Home Rule bill with these notifications
is neither rs logical nor as coherent as the
measure proposed in 1856. Ii does not repre-
sent with equal force Mr.. Gladstone's convic-
tons II is compromise which has been
adrotly shaped and trimmed as the clrcum-
stances seemed to require With ono add
tonal readiustmcnt the most difficult OF all,
the financial clauses will be patched up and
the bill passed under closure Then il will be
thrown out by the House of Lords and Mr.
Gladstoncs position before the country will
be greatly strengthened. The Irish members
will he committed 10 the measure, and the
Radicals will be delighted with the prospect
of popular agitation against the upper House
The passage of the bill through the Commons
will be the most remarkable feat OF political
dextelity in the annals of Parliament
