Excerpt from The Land Question, Ireland, Vol. 14: The Working of the Land Law Act; February, 1882

But though Parliament deliberately abstained from laying down the principles that shoyld guide the Land Court in fixing the Fair Rent,' it did not shrink at the last moment from allowing a clause to be introduced, almost surreptitiously, which affirmed the principle that no rent should be allowed in respect of 'improvements' sup posed to be made by the Tenant or his prede cessors in title. And, as if all this was not enough, Mr. Gladstone explicitly pledged himself that the persons selected to administer the Act should all be in sympathy with its spirit - in other words, that they should come to the discharge of their judicial functions prejudiced in favour of the Tenant.
