Others. while admitting the truth of‘ these charges, say that we must not blame the best men of the party or the party leaders for the indiscreet zeal of some of the least conscient- ious men in it. No! The policy, apparently, has been to import cer- tain scalawags from no one knows where, and let them do the dark work and keep the candidate and the. best men studiously ignorant of these proceedings. But these unscrupul- ous adventurers are not in the busi- ness of corrupting men for their health. Some one must furnish the five-«lollar bills that are found near the gray mare or in the bottom of the buggy.” Dr. Ross adds: “Let not the respectable men of either party who are studying the planets or looking for some kind of weather whilw theSt‘ things are going on in their party think that we will ab- solve tlwm from all responsibility for it.

In View of the .ieeling' aroused in the Channel Islands by the announce- ment of the intention of the Govern- ment to withdraw the British garri- son thence, a great deal more is likely to be heard of the question in this country before long. The con- stitutional position of the islands in the Empire is a curiosity. “Every schoolboy knows” that they are the sole remnant of the Norman posses- sions of the Norman dynasty of 1066. But their relation to Parlia- ment is peculiar. As a matter of fact, Parliament legislates for them, when it thinks fit, which is not often, and in the Interpretation Act of 1889 Parliament ordained that the expres- sion “British ,Islands” should in- clude, as a general rule, the Channel Islands. But the islanders maintain their territory never did belong to the King. of England, as King of Eng- land, but as Duke of Normandy, and that Parliament has not more right to legislate for them than it had to legislate for Hanover in the reigns of the Georges (Sir William Anson, “The Constitution.") What happens, in fact, is that when a, statute af- fects the islands, the Crown in Coun- cil transmits it through the Home Secretaryâ€"for they are not “Colon- ies"â€"to the Lieutenant-Governors for registration by the Royal Court. This satisfies the theory of the isl- anders that they are bound by the act of the Crown and not of Parlia- ment. The basis of the local law is the old Norman law. In Jersey the Poyal Court till 1771.wasâ€"What political philoscphâ€" ers have always abhorredâ€"at once a legislative and a judicial body. It in now only the judicature. It consists of the baltic appointed by the Crown, and twelve “jurats”â€"that is, sworn men, who are elected for life by the whole of the ratepayers in Jersey. The whole of the judicial work is done by different distributions of the jurats in numberâ€"namely, as Courts of First Instance or of Appeal, but always with the bailiff presiding, and there is a final appeal to the Crown in Council. “The constitution of the court," quietly observes Sir William Anson, “is not calculated to further the ends of justice." This is probably the only tribunal in the whole Em- pire of which a dispassionate tech- nical writer could make this observa- tion. “The jurats, who act as judges, are elected for legislative as well as judicial purposes. They are not paid, and no security is taken that they should possess any legal training. The bailifl, who is appointed by the Crown, who is always a qualified lawyer, and whose income from di- rect payment and fees amounts to about £750, is not allowed to ex- press an opinion, unless the jurats are equally divided. Change has con- stantly been desired and expected in the constitution of these courts, but no change would seem to have been effected. ' ’ The state of things in the judiciary of Guernsey and Alderney seems to be much the same, and, according to the same authority, equally unsatis- factory. Each of the islands has its law officers (of the Crown) and a stafi of executive ofllcials, and Alder- ney apparently appeals to Guernsey. “Sark has a court which exercises limited criminal jurisdiction. The tiny island of Herm"â€"â€"surely Sark and Hcrm correspond in our Empire to Andorra. or san Marineâ€"“once at- tempted to assert its independence of Guernsey, but the attempt was not successful." (“Fmeyclopaedia of Laws") The Legislature in Jersey has been since 177 “the states," _‘__._ A‘-.. ‘nvn“'l\ i.e., the Royal Court plus the twelve parsons (rectors) and the twelve con- stables of the twelve parishes. The constables are elected by parisioners (principeaux) possessing property of the annual value of from £160 'to £400. Here, too, the bailiff presides. ’31:: réiéiibné Between this Body and the Privy Council have been much discussed with much antiquarian lore. The prcsgnt positiqn is thus summed up by Sir W. Anson (ubi supra): “The Croyvn can by Order-in-Council extend to the islands the operations of statutes in which the islands are not named, or may legislate inde- pendently of statute, by Order-in- Council. In such cases the order must be registered by the Royal Court, and it is accepted custom that the order to register should be addressed to the States, that they may have an opportunity of address- ing the Crown on the subject of the proposed legislation." This they have often done successfully: they are not heard by the judicial committee, but by a special one for the islands. â€"â€"‘â€"-A- .“ ”logy-“â€" W .. ____ The States may themselves, and do, initiate legislation, subject to the approval of the Crown in Coun- cil, and they may, even without this consent, make enactments which are valid for three years, unless the Crown vetoes. The powers of the Guernsey Legislature are also very limited. Lord Basil Blackwood.
