March 8, 1894 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Les Ministres dans les principaux pays d'Europe et d'Amérique, " by Par L Dupriez. The second volume of this book is devoted to the republics of the United States, France, and Switzerland. The account of the United States is of interest to an American chiefly as a test of the author's thoroughness and accuracy. The writer, like all foreigners, seems to derive satisfaction from pointing out as a peculiar and unique form of government, in that the members of the Cabinet are excluded from all access to the House, because the Constitution forbids them to be members of either house, although he remarks that in Prussia and in Switzerland the ministers have the right of entry into the chambers.
