SPANISH CABINET
RESIGNS IN A BODY
Probability That Canalejas Will
Remain Premier With New
Set of Ministers.
By Associated Press.

Dy <tsSOCIdled fISSo.
MADRID, April 1.-The cabinet Of
Premier Canalejas resigned today. The
resignation was due TO dilemma In
which the ministry was placed by the
debate on the Republican motion in fa-
vor of revision of the court martial
which resulted in the condemnation OF
Francisco Ferrer, founder of the mod
ern school.
The ministers endeavored merely to
be onlookers in the duel between the
Conservatives, who were in office at the
time Of the execution Of Ferror and the
Republicans, but finally were forced to
intervene In order 30 defend the prin-
c1ples OF the government procedure in
the court martial. Their half-hearted
defense against the violent Socialist
and Republican attacks on the military
authorities, however, only provoked the
resentment of the latter.
1t WAS even suggested this morning
that military cabinet should be chos-
en-, but it is probable such O coalition
would be shortlived, The Conservatives
do not wish military government and
regretting their attitude in the Ferrer
debate, are disposed TO support Can
alejas in order that the cortes shall re-
main open and the Ferrer question be
settled Thus it is likely that Cana
leias will remain premier although he
will probably alter the makeup Of his
cabinet,

Campaign.

Surnort has been proffered generally
among the merchants of the city for
Utah Home Industry week under the
direction of the Home Industries as.
sociation. The united effort is to make
this week distinctly time when Utah
made goods will be before the people at
every hand, demanding patronage in
preference to goods made outside the
state Those in charge Of the affair
are led to believe that the cooperation
of merchants with the manufacturers
will bring the people to a better un-
derstanding of the necessity of uniting
for the support Of home industries to
the end that factories may grow and
the field widen for other industries.
Displays of manufactured goods from
Utah factories will be seen in a num-
ber Of the prominent show windows.
Large placards will be distributed Mon
day among the stores for places in the
windows calling the attention of the
people in general to the movement to
forward home products. Hotels and
cafes have agreed as far as possible to
supply their guests with Utah food
products and to have the menu cards
bear the brands of Utah-made goods
wherever served in order that those who
eat may know that there are foodstuffs
made in Utah that will stand compar-
ison with any like product made in dis
tant states,

difference with the printers union the
printed matter Of the Buttcrick people
