Excerpt from The New Irish Constitution: An Exposition and Some Arguments
It must be understood that the responsibility for each chapter is confined to the person who wrote it. We are all united in a common allegiance to the prin ciples of Home Rule, but that allegiance is not incom patible with some diversity of View as to the form which it should take. It seems to me that the book gains, rather than loses, in value by this degree of latitude of opinion. It is, perhaps, hardly necessary to add that the order in which the chapters appear makes no pretence to anything so invidious as an order of merit - otherwise the first chapter would have been the last it is designed Simply with a View to a logical sequence.

Excerpt from The New Irish Constitution: An Exposition and Some Arguments
A word of explanation seems necessary as to the origin of this work, its design, and the obligations under which it has laid the Editor. The Committee of the Eighty Club requested me some few months ago to undertake the preparation of a book dealing with the Irish question. They did me the honour of leaving entirely to my discretion both the design of the work and the choice of the contributors. Of books about Ireland, particularly of those which wear the livery of political parties, there are enough and to spare. Most of them are retrospective. I am not insensible to the value of a historical argument - as the design of the second part of this book sufficiently attests - but "few indeed," as Burke has remarked, "are the partisans of departed tyranny" and it seemed to me more profitable to pay some attention to the present and the future. The restoration to Ireland of her Parliament is an event which not only appeals to the imagination of the historian, but also stimulates the speculation of the jurist, and invites the assistance of the administrator. I have, therefore, attempted in the earlier part of this book to secure a sober and dispassionate study of the new order of government by writers who can speak with the authority of a life's vocation. Their names need no commendation from me.
