THE CRISIS IN FRANCE.



LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE special dispatches
from Paris this morning all agree as to
the gravity of the French crisis. Accord
ing to "a semi-oflicial statement NJ Bour-
geois, the premier, had an interview with
President Faure yesterday afternoon and
explained that the conflict of the senate
with the chamber had assumed such u
character that a resignation of the minis
try would not solve the crisis. The cab
met had, therefore, decided to await the
further expression of the opinion of the
chamber, the ministers agreeing that they
can no more yield to the senate than they
can disregard the confidence of the cham
Der.
The origin of the crisis is the determine
tion of the senate to overthrow the Rad
ical ministry or to die in the attempt. Not
since mai seize" has France been on the
brink of so extensive an upheaval Presi-
dent Faures position is shaken, and he is
severely blamed by all moderate polite
ians for suffering the experiment of Rad
ical ministry, failing to foresee the count
less difficulties that were bound to follow
The most noticeable feature of the crisis
is the apathy of the public and the belief
that all will come right some how. The
chamber is unlikely to yield, and already
dissolution is in the air.
| PARIS, Feb. 17-The cabinet has de-
cided to ignore the vote taken in the SEN
ate on Saturday, which was repetition
of a vote of that body on Feb. II, dcprecat-
| ing the Irregularities disclosed in connec.
tion with the Southern railway scandal,
and demanding "A searching inquiry The
newspapers here express the belief that nc
issue from the cabinet crisis is possible
except through the resignation of NJ
Ricard, minister of justice.

A FAMOUS PIONEER.

Less than ten years before Louis the
Fourteenth married Madame de Main
tenon. who never was recognized as
the queen of France. and surrendered
himself to the influences that led to
the revocation of the edict of Nantes,
a devout French missionary. Father
James Marquette, was lifted frCm a
canoe to the bank of an American
stream that afterward bore his name.
There, ending years of faithful work
among the Indian tribes of the then
unknown Northwest, he breathed his
last and there he was buried.
The action of Louis the Fourteenth
ninety years before, had been granted
to the Huguenots. They fled. In their
exodus they carried away from France
that country's best blood in art, in in
dustry and in thrift. The cost to
France of the kings Incorporate relig
ious zeal can never be estimated. In
time. too France lost all that devoted
missionaries like Marquette had won
for their native land in Lower Canada
and in Upper Canada, in New York
and Ohio, along the chain of the Great
Lakes and in a vast region bordering
the Mississippi.
But the fruits of this missionary
service endure. The career of Father
Marquette. who was preacher, explor-
er and pioneer. is a part of history,
and to-day. as the gift of the state of
Wisconsin, a statue of him will be un-
yelled in one of the great halls of the
capitol at Washington.
Father Marquette was born in
France; he was nearly thirty years old
when he landed at Quebec and started
Not long afterward he embarked on the
hazardous journey to the PARKWAY re-
gion of Lake Superior, and he found
ed the mission of Sault st. Marie. Five
years later he was at the head of Ash
land bay. AT Mackinaw he started the
mission of st. Ignatius. He preached
TO the savages, he baptized hundreds
of them, he built chapels. He Joined
Joliet on a voyage of discovery; he
penned a story of the exploration of
the Mississippi river, and what he
wrote has enjoyed enduring fame.
But 1t was an arduous experience.
Human endurance could not long stand
the strain; the years of this mans
service were soon numbered. Engag-
ing in a long expedition Astounding in
peril, and adventure and deprivation,
he was on his return from the region
of Illinois when his strength failed. He
realized that it was the end. He was
removed to the river bank and there,
in the west of Michigan. he selected the
spot for his burial Afterwards his re-
mains were transferred to Point St.
1gnace. Mich. In time their resting
place was forgotten, but it was dis
covered about eighteen years ago.
Father Marquette's death occurred in
1875; he lived to be thirty eight years
old

THEY WON'T HAVE 1T.

influential republican newspapers in
the East are denouncing the scheme
proposed by ex-Congressman Fitch, of
Arizona. for holding the elements of
the republican party together. Mr..
Fitch is one of the republicans who
want TO be for silver and yet stay with
the republican party-that is a combi-
nation hard to make for those of sill
ver's friends who are sincere.
Mr.. Fitch urges that the republicans
in the coming national convention give
the party's silver contingent some sort
of show. His proposition is that il
would be unjust on the part of the re-
publican majority to formulate it's
views in a platform and make these
views test of party loyalty. He sug-
gests that the convention remit all
such questions to the people of the con-
gressional districts for determina-
ton," and that, in it's platform, the
convention pledge its nominees not 70
fnterpose the executive veto. or the
power and patronage of the executive
office. to defeat any legislation with
ported by a majority of the republican
senators and representatives In on
gress"
Mr.. Fitch describes how this scheme
would work to republican advantage.
He says: Under this ARRANGEMENT
the republicans could say to the demo.
Gratis and the populists: Now, gentle
men. If you wish TO aid free coinage.
vote for the republican nominee for
congress. His vote will tell because the
republican president is pledged not to
veto 1t, while the executive is at liberty
to override the same vote cast by a
democrat or a populist'"
The Fitch plan is an arrangement 10
let weakened republicans out of a
corner. Some of the republican news
papers scof at 1t, others denounce IL
as shallow. weak and contemptible:"
we have not seen favorable notice of Il
in any republican newspaper Nor does
the suggestion get pleasant attention
In the independent press. even IN that
part of the Independent press that has
advocated fair show for silver. The
Washington Post says: Where is the
man fit to be president, the candidate
whom the people respect. who would
accept nomination under such condi-
tions? a president thus elected would
be foresworn to a course which might
violate his official oath" And the
united testimony OF the eastern repub-
hean press is that there is not and
never has been a political party that
would commit itself to the folly which
the Fitch plan involves.
The Fitch plan. as far as it proposes
10 tie the hands of the president. is
the plan favored by the Inter Mount
ain. Our Butte contemporary will dis
cover that the republican leaders and
the republican newspapers are as good
as solid against the suggestion.

The United States now ranks fifth
among the naval powers of the world.
Great Britain, France, Russia and
Italy lead us. while Germany, Spain
and Austria follow in the order named.
Twenty-one additional vessels are now
i'm process of construction, and in the
course of few more years the United
States may take second or third place.
Great Britain has a very long lead and
it is doubtful whether this government
will ever undertake to pass her. Great
Britain's conditions, the remoteness of
many of her possessions, render a vast
navy an imperative necessity. All that
this country needs is a navy of sufIi-
cient size to be able to cope with all
that Great Britain would be likely to
bring against us at any one time-she
would never dare to mass her entire
navy together. for such a policy would
leave much of her territorial area I'M

QUAINT OR CURIOUS.

Austrias new ministry has sent q cir
cular to all public prosecutors, reminding
them that the freedom of the press is
guaranteed by the constitution, and
warning them that the illegal practice of
confscating newspapers on the ground
tfat they incite TO hatred and contempt
will no longer be tolerated.
An authority on birds tells us that on
the continent, where the winters are moro
severe than in Great Britain, the willow
grouse molts in the autumn and turns
a whitish brown. the natural color of his
surroundings. which protects him from
birds of prey. When the ground is COW
cred with snow the bird molts a second
time and is perfectly white.
During 1925 vessels measuring $50. 900

nize the Southern Confederacy as en-
titled to belligerent rights in the days

state of war in Cuba-the question OF

cardinal now. Shall congress act with
manifest injustice toward the strug-
Cling patriots who live almost within
sight of our shores lest Spain shall de-
feat the United States in war?
