ENGLAND’S PREMIER.
WHAT IT MEANS TO BE THE BRITISH
PRIME MINISTER.
Nowhere Else la tha World la Thara A ay
Position at Onra Ho Powerful and So
Anomalom - Tha Ofllaa la Wltlaoat Loyal
Foundation.
Nowhere else in the world is there
any position at once so powerful and so
anomalous. So long as he remains
prime minister the premier of the Unit
ed Kingdom is possessed of more real
power than any single individual, un
less it be the czar or the president of
the United States.
Yet, great as is the power of prime
minister, the offloe ban no foundation on
law. The prime minister is quite as un
known to the law as is the oabinet. If
a legal pedant, blind to all facts not in
the statutes or the textbooks of the
common law, were asked to deilue the
office of prime minister and to describe
the cabinet, he would be utterly at a
loss.
In theory the prime minister is only
a privy councilor at the bead of a de
partment of state who is specially in
the soverelgn’soonfldenoe and who usu
ally presides at an informal gathering
of oertain of the privy councilors who
happen to hold offices of state—a gath
ering which is called the oabinet. That
is the furthest which the legal pedant of
our thought would dare to go. Yet, of
course, the prime minister is, in fgot,
far more than the mere obairtnan of the
uauiuui.
The oabinet, no donbt, baa a great
deal of power, bat even it it were trne
onoe It ia oertainly not trne now that
England 1* governed by a committee of
IS or 16 persons.
The prime minister, as a rule, makes
bia cabinet. He la commissioned by the
a neon to form a oabinet, because be la
ie man whom she considers to possess
the ootifidenoeof a majority of thehonae
of oommons. He forme bia oabinet by
asking oertain members of the two
bouses to bold tbe great offioes of state.
He might do this iu one day and with
out consulting any one.
As a matter of fact, wbat usually
happen* is this: Aa soon aa tbe commis
sion to form a government baa been re
oeivud, the prime minister takes into
bia confidence tbe two or three who will
bold tbe chief office#, and they talk
together over tbe other names. When a
man ia decided upon, be, aa a rale,
joins tbe oonolave and helps to oonanlt
as to men and plaoes, and so the oabinet
gradually evolves itself. No donbt, as
generally happens in tbia world, tbe
crime minister’e choice ie never really
nee.
Certain pen mnat be in tbe cabinet,
whatever happens, and benoe they may
be said not 16 be chosen by tbe premier,
but to be ministers in tbeir own right.
In spite, however, of this, the fact that
they are asked to serve by tbe premier
makes them feel bis superiority. When
tbe cabinet is made, tbe theory of the
unwritten constitution ie that tbe oabi
net govern* In reality it aeldom does
an 1 ing of tbe kind.
b cabinet minister bae very great
power in bis own department, bat the
oabinet as a cabinet can do little. Sinoe,
however, it knows everything tbat is
going on it oan exercise a great deal of
indirect power. The previous knowl
edge that tbe majority of tbe oabinet
wonld like or dislike a particular pol
icy bae a great influence, bnt still tbe
oabinet does not r?le. Tbe prime minis
ter summon* presides over and largely
oontrola tbe cabinet meetinga. If a va
cancy oocnr* be Alls it up, and so oan
promote from tbe lower to tbe higher
offloes.
Then he oan and does oonfer with bia
oollcagues in regard to the bnsineea of
tbeir department* and so has a bold
upon tbe whole machine of government.
Sir Robert Peel saw every member of
Ilia cabinet separately every day. Again,
f there be h difference between two
other members of the government, the
premier deoidee. If there be an irrecon
cilable difference between himself and
a minister, it is the minister and not
the premier who resigns.
Lastly, the prime minis*'"
signing himself, dissolv
istry. These thing'
selves, taken tog*'’
minister’s pr
makes and
presides i
to advise ii
though thii
exercised, an,
beforehand the
tile nr of any ct
struggle between
because the rank
the premier is beate
power to upset the
government.
Hence the voice# of
to keep in office are ah
the side of the premie.
