Dental Campaigns.


The Washington Post prints under a
New York date what Is declared to be
an authoritative statement Of the cam
paign fund raised by the republican
national committee during the last
presidential canvass and the manner
OF its distribution. -,
The statement shows an approx
mate aggregate of t1.sOO,OO0 was rails
ed and expended.
The figures for the Mckinley cam
paign of 1900 are given as $4,000. 10000
and for 1886 as $3.sO0,O0
The sum expended by the demo
cratic, national committee for the cleo
ton of Mr.. Cleveland in 1892 is placed
at $4H06,000. -
The article says about 1000 in
dividuals contributed to the. last re-
publican campaign. Of which 40 per
cent disclosed their identity and 60
per cent were unknown.
The largest individual contribution
was $4,000 or 100000. the funds. be

BALFOUR and Cabinet RESIGN
King Edward Accepts Same and In
structs CampbeII-Bannerman
for Form New Cabinet.

London, Dec 5.-The political crisis
in the United Kingdom has reached q
climax Arthur J. Balfour, the pre-.
mier, has formerly rendered the resig'
nations Of himself and the members Of
his cabinet to King Edward, who ac.
cepted them. His majesty has invited
Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman to an
interview, when he will Offer him the
mission Of forming a new cabinet. Sir
Henry will accept the task, and within
a few days new government will be
formed
1t may be stated as certain that Eord
Rosebery will be entirely ingored in
the makeup Of the cabinet and that
John Morley will be one of the CHIEF
advisers of Sir Henry in drawing up
the list of his official family, which
will be presented to his majesty.
Mr.. Morley himself is considered like
ly to go to the Indian office, aud it il
probable that Herbert Henry Asquith
will be chancellor of the exchequer.
The foreign affairs portfolio will go
either to Lord Elgin or Sir Edward
Grey, though the latter is considered
likely to be made secretary of the colo.
MES.
One thing is certain-that Sir Henry
Campbell l-Bannerman has explained
his attitude on home rule for Ireland
to those liberal leaders who are known
to be opposed to home rule on the lines
Of the last bills introduced in parlia-
ment. Since his speech at Stirling,
which raised such fulore, Sir Henry
has not made any statement, but it is
confidently asserted in the liberal clubs
that he is ready with a policy which
will secure the adhesion of the British
nationalists, and at the same time
avoid raising the issue of one Of the
prominent planks in his platform.
There is some uncertainty rs to when
the dissolution Of parliament will be
effective, but it is not considered prob
able until after the new year.
An interesting feature of the politi.
cal situation is the prospect of a closer
alliance between the Irish and the
labor parties in the new parliament.
James Keir Hardie, the socialist and
independent member, in a political
speech tonight frankly invited such an
alliance. He pointed out that 45 labor
members combined with IS Irish mem.
bers would provide q voting strength
which no government, however strong,
could afford to ignore.

Week-New Senators Appear-ln
Upper House There Will Be Four

tion of speaker and other house Of

Rescuers Are Driven eack-Shock Is

Explosion 100 Feet Underground.

Diamondville. Wyo., Dec. 4.-Eight-
cen miners lost their lives by an ex.
plosion in the Diamond Coal & Coke
company's mine No. /. 1t is believed
that all the men who perished were
instantly killed. What caused the dis
aster is not definitely known, but the
theory advanced by the miners is that
blown out" shot caused dust explo-
sion. which wrecked the mine. The
explosion was felt all over the town,
rocking buildings SO violently that the
occupants ran out into the open. The
news that there had been another dis.
aster at the Diamond mine the Sec
ond in less tnan five years-spread
through the village. and practically
the whole population Of Diamondville
Aocked to the mine shaft. In the pre-.
vipus explosion, which occurred Feb
ruary 26, 1901, 32 miners perished.
Wives and children Of the entombed
miners were among those who rushed
to the shaft, and the scenes there were
most pathetic. The men were ready
to enter the shaft. II was impossible
to do so. owing to the after effects
OF the explosion. and Superintendent
sheldon insisted that all precautions
against fire should be taken.
The explosion occurred HOO feet
underground and at least 5000 feet
from the mouth of the shaft.
The 500 coal diggers Of the Diamond
mines were assisted In rescue work
by many miners who came over from
kemmerer, .ew miles distant.
Every man In the mine perished.
The night force was small, their work
being limited to knocking down coal
to be taken out by the day shift. Had
the explosion occurred in daytime, the
loss Of life would have been far
greater.
The Diamond Coal & Coke company
is Salt Lake .i,y concern. The out
put OF the mine Is largely shipped to
Salt Lake City and the smelters at
Anaconda, Mont.
Many English miners. who came d.
rect to the mines from England. are
employed in Diamondville, and 1t is
believed tnat majority Of the dead
are Englishmen.
