' LONDON, Mny 7. The government ; today presented Its long-awaited Irish bill to the House of Commons and the country. This bill is designed to meet toe demands for Irish home rule. It was presented by the Chief Secretary for Ireland. Mr. Birrell, to a crowded house. - .The measure confers, little self government upon Irelavid, merely giv ing to the council control of the eight departments now managed by govern ment boards. The council is to be ap pointed by the crown and, while the lord Lieutenant of Ireland is given power to nullify its measures, the crown retains control of five of the eight departments, including the con stabulary. The control of this branch always has been a thurn in the flesh of the Irish people. This half-way measure is wholly pleasing to no political party. The i Unionists regard it as a step toward Jiome rule. They object to giving Ire land the management of many depart ments of local affairs, while the Irish members of Commons retain the right to legislate in similar affairs for England B)nd Scotland. They criticise also the plan of government as complicated and cumbersome. . The Radicals are disap pointed that the measure falls so short of actual home rule. Irish Leaders Await Developments. The Irish leaders, however, are main taining a diplomatic attitude until they have time to study the provisions of tne bill and learn the sentiment of the tieople. A Nationalist convention will be held in Dublin to decide upon the stand of the Irish party. The Laboi ites will support the measure, because they are all home rulers. To prevent the first reading of the bill from being deferred until tomorrow, while Walter Hume Long was still speaking. Mr. Birrell moved the closure. Then amid great uproar and protests and shouts of "gag." the closure was carried by 417 votes to 121, and the bill passed its first reading by 416 votes to 121. The house then adjourned. Bourke Cockran Listens. After the bill had been presented and explained by Mr. Birrell. it was ridi culed by A. K. Balfour on behalf of the opposition. John E. Redmond then de livered a brilliant speech, giving a digni fied and forceful exposition of Ireland's claims for complete home rule. W. Bourke Cockran. of New Tork, was an interested spectator during the proceed ings. Most of Mr. Birrell's speech was a dry explanation of details of the plan, although in the beginning he eloquently contrasted his position with that of Mr. Gladstone in presenting home rule, call ing his task a more humble one and commensurate with his position and powers. ... Mr. Birrell tailed Dublin Castle a fail ure, saying: "There it stands, remote. without friend and melancholy, while the current of Irish life sweeps past. No Governor had entered," he continued, "the gloomy portals of Dublin Castle without a sink ing of the heart almost equivalent to abandoning hope." Pamell had said that one way to gov ern Ireland was. to send, a man there to hold the balance of all parties and ad minister the country In a spirit of cour age and Independence, but the govern ment had ' no such man in itsye. "I would . rather write the biography of a British autocrat," Mr. Birrell said, "than live under jits -rule. Such men do not make . good history." Continuing, Mr. Birrell said: Nobody believes that the preaent adminis tration of Ireland Is sound In principle or economical. Under the proposed new scheme the Irish members will continue to sit at Westminster in undiminished num bers, but hope hereafter to find a more profitable chance for their tnqulsltlveness In managing local affairs at borne. It is the Intention of the bill to establish a rep resentative administrative council, consist ing of S3 elective and 24 nominative mem bers, the latter to be nominated the first year by the King and thereafter by the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Composition of Council. Members will be elected on the local government board.. The under secretary to the Lord Lieutenant will be ex-offlcto mem ber of the Council, which will have com plete control of the powers vested In the departments, to be handed over to Its care. The President of the Council will be ap pointed by the Council. If the existing officer are elected by the councils, they must be gtven full powers. Exercise of the powers vested in the de partments will be controlled by reasons of the Council, and the supremacy of the Imperial Parliament will be safeguarded by the power given to the Lord Lieutenant to reserve his consent to any results of the Council and eight departments which would be -made subject to the new Council. The departments coming under the con- trot of the proposed Irish Council will be the Local Government Board, Department of Agrlcultude, Congested Districts Board, Commissioners of Public Works; National Education and Intermediate Education, In spectors of the Reformatory and Industrial Schools and the Registrar-General. The Supreme Court Judicature. Royal Irish Constabulary, Dublin Metropolitan police. Uia Lafid. rftrTTl'lnlnn nf"fl thif. prisons- Board would remain under the control of the imperial authorities. The constituencies would be the same as those of the present Parliamentary areas. I do not thing 107 members were too many. Tha Council would be elected for three year and authorised to establish as many committees as it pleased, but It must es tablish finance, public works, education and local government board committees, the chairman of which would be appointed by the Lord Lieutenant. Provide Separate Fund. For financial purposes a certain annual sum. to be fixed by Parliament every five years. Is to be paid Inxo a separate Irish fund. The present cost of the eight 4e partments Is estimated at a little over 2.000,000 yearly. The government proposes hand over In addition the sum of 650.000 yearly, of which 300.000 must be devoted to public works and the general develop ment of the country. Including other statu tory payments. An Irish fund, therefore, to the amount ot a little over 4.000.000 annually would be created. The Council .will have the power to appoint or remove the officers of the eight departments, but the rights of the existing officers will be pre served. Under the bill any British subject will be, able to hold the office of Lord Lieu tenant without preference for any religious belief. A clause la also Included providing that no preference whatever-shall be shown to any religious denomination In appoint ments. "The government," concluded Mr. Bir rell, "has been told that the bill paved the way for home rule. If the bill is passed and the new council Is a success, then I dare say it might pave the way. If. on the other hand, it is a failure, it might present considerable obstruction, but surely the Unionists will not refuse Ireland an opportunity for training her people to acquire any right they ought to possess because if . the measure proves successful one of the difficulties in the way of home rule will have been re moved." ' . Balfour Says t'nfair Bill. Mr. Balfour, opposition leader, charac terized the bill as grossly unfair, as the Irish members of Parliament were still able to Interfere In English and Scotch affairs while the House of Commons would be unable to say a word in the analogous business about to be trans ferred to the new Council. The measure would not legitimately relieve the aspira tions of the Irish and would only cause confusion in the administration and en tail real grievances in Scotland and Eng land. More preposterous suggestions regard ing the local government had never been made, he declared. They would cause collisions with the authorities and inevit ably involve a breakdown of the whole scheme. The proposals would satisfy neither the English nor the Scotch and still less the Irish. John Redmond. Irish leader, said until he and his colleagues had time to con sider the bill, no one could expect him to give final Judgment. Mr. Gladstone pro posed to solve the problem by the full and frank concession of self-government and autonomy to the Irish people, but what the present government offered was not home rule nor a substitute for it. The Irish, still demanded home rule. Redmond Asks for More Money. After expressing doubt regarding certain minor features, Mr. Redmond discussed the financial features. He said he believed the fund of 650.000 was most Inadequate. The wholo amount would be mortgaged at once, leaving nothing for the development of Ireland. Therefore It would be im possible, successfully to work the scheme. The police department 'was the only one in which a real saving could be effected, and that was with held from them. Mr. Redmond confessed that al though he viewed the question from a position opposite to that of Mr. Bal four, he felt the force of some of the latter's arguments. However, if the measure showed Itself even moderately successful, his party would gladly ac cept it. '' ' To Hold Great Convention. The Nationalists have called a great convention to be held In Dublin May 21 and 22 to consider the government's bill. All the Irish city corporations and the borough and city rural coun cils have been Invited to send dele gates, irrespective of politics. The branches of the United Irish League in Ireland and England also will be represented, and all the clergymen of Ireland, Irrespective of denomination, will be ex-offlcto delegates. It is ex pected more than 2000 persons will attend. Far Removed From Home Rule PHILADELPHIA, May 7. Michael J. Ryan, National president of the Na tional Irish League of America, when shown the cabled summary of, the Irish bill said: "The terms are disappointing and seem to be far removed from home rule, but the whole measure will be passed upon at the National conven tion of the Irish people summoned to meet in Dublin on May 21. it Is un fortunate that" England could not measure up at least to thft heights reached by Gladstone." Downfall of Dublin Castle. BOSTON, May 7. John O'Callahan, National secretary of the United Irish League of America, said today: "The only thing apparent from the provisions of this new Irish bill is that it means the downfall of 'Dub lin Castle,' an anti-Irish institution. With Castle government destroyed, complete home rule is assured. John Redmond and the Irish party can be safely trusted to make the measure broader before It leaves the House of Commons." FALLS SICK ON SPECIAL J. P. Jones Stricken on Way to the Shrlners' Convention. LOS ANGELES, Cal.. May 7. Noble J. P. Jones, traveling passenger agent for the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Co.. also connected with the Lfilon and South ern Pacific Railways at Portland, and last but not least a member of Al Kader Temple of the Mystic Shrlners, was hastened to the Pacific Hospital on his arrival in this city Sunday. He will re main there throughout a week. Mr. Jones, who came from the North in a private car, was stricken with gastritis shortly before his arrival here. AT THE HOTELS. Hotel Portland F.
