Half its members die directly appointed by the, Th oos; the remainder are chosen from among the delegates to be Provincial Assom- b'ies, but the fiḍal selection of eue member out of every two delegates thosen is made by the Viceroy or Governorolt e province. From the stealy opposition with which the demand for The Vice-President moved that the question the eatly a ening of a Parliament has of judical administration be referred back to bros met in high quanèrs it is clear that in the|the Commission for the Study of Constitutional minds of the authors of the scheme of constitu- Gaverament for detailed information. This tional development it was intended that there was also agreed to. should be a wide divergence in the political spirit of the National Assembly from that which might be expected of a pepuler Parliament That the former should at any time harbour democratic tendencies was probably never con- templated But the unexpected has bape pesed, and the practically unanimous vite with which the petition forza farliament was passed on Tuesday shows that on this subject the imperial and aristocratic leaves In the Assembly is at one with the popular repra rootslives. The step thus taken brings com. 'tutional development in Ch'ns to the parting of the ways. If the petition be granted and convaned within B sbort Parliament be sime, such impetus wil have been given

On the other hand if the minimum. Prince Re.cat, acting under the adrice of the Grand Council, were to remain obdurate and reject the memorial, the country will know that the constitutional movement is intended to be kept within well dedued limits and that popular government is to be attained only by the exer. tions of the people themselves. As has been long foreseen, the aspirations of the various Assemblies are finding powerful support in the Ginancial condition of the empire. Duke Taal Tie, the enlightened President of the Ministry of Finance, who, would seem to have found bli tast of balanclog Imperial revenue and ex paditure no Rittuto, has accorded the "demand for the speedy oparing of Parliament his whole-hearted support on the ground that

The Prince Regent, therefore, must find it increasingly difficult to remain faithful to the scheme of constituti^ml development laid dow by thalate Empress-Dowager, and present indi- citions print to a compromise, by which the epsol g'al a Parliament will be accelerated by three years taking pla e la 1913 instead of a originally fixed in 1916.
