CABINET GOES TO WORK
The Socialist Radicals and The Democratic
Left Vote with the Government.
DECLARATIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT READ
>yns voted Upon and Adopted in Roth
the Chamber of Deputies and
the senate.

= afternoon. The chamber OF deputies was
4 thronged and there was great animation at
the opening session when 1t became known
that Two alleged hostile groups, the social
/ ist radicals and the democratic left. had
decided to vote in favor OF the govern
ment and that NJ. Paul DeCassagnac had
written his Interpolation.
Identical statements were read in the
! chamber OF deputies by the pre- aler, Nj.
| Wadeck Rousseau, and in the senate by
the minister Of justice, NJ. Mons.
They were as follows: The chamber OF
deputies, In expressing itself resolved not
! TO support any government but one de-
! termined 10 defend energetically republi-
! can institutions and assure public order,
has clearly defined the task imposed on
the new cabinet, The ministry has no
other ambition than to accomplish II.
Then TO accomplish 1t, in order to
| bring about the pachcation OF the coun-
| try and to maintain Intact our common
Inheritance, II seemed to us that existing
decisions should be eflaced and that the
work we are about to undertake required
the cooperation OF all republicans. When
the aim Is definite though varying accord
ing to the methods of different schools,
accord becomes easier and controversies
are lost in the presence of one duty to
perform.
ITO end the agtations pursued under
| disguises easy to penetrate against the
regime. which has been sanctioned and
will be upheld by universal suffrage and
to require from all the services loyal as
the courageous assumption OF RESPONSE
bility.
such is necessarily the first duty OF
the government. 1t is resolved TO have all
judicial decisions respected, and If the
first wish of the country Is to listen TO
the voice of justice, 1t will maintain ST.
lence and respect while its decisions arc
prepared.
I'm the front rank of the important in
terests of the country bound with the con-
servatism of the dignity of the Nation. we
place the interests of the army which the
republic has constructed, on stronger
aud wider basis and which is synonymous
with the republics security and is the
pride of France. We think with the
army's most illustrious and surest guides,
that inviolable attachment to discipline
Is the first and essential guarantee Of the
army own greatness. We intend to de-
tend 1t with the same energy against the
attacks and solicitations which constitute
the most undeserved of insults.
we desire above all that appeasement
may be accomplished, and II will come
quickly If every one will give up being
law unto himself and bow to the law o. ne
land.
TO accomplish the work which has de
operation OF parliament and its whole con-
hdenc- We ask the widest mandate. We
take the fullest responsibility We ask
