Question to Be Decided.

The question up to the government at
this moment said DIR. Gomez. sis wheth-
er II proposes to go out Of office grace
fully and gradually, or whether it shall
be summarily forced out by revolutionary
arms. The alternative suggested by the
message of Gen. Diaz. and which the
government would most likely prefer
elimination by expiration OF term Of
power-will never be accomplished. The
no-re-election plan will not be effective
long enough to permit the administration
TO complete term Of Office In the natural
course of events.
ITO step down with honor" says Or.
Gomez, 'the, government must treat
openly for peace. according to the terms
OF the revolutionists, and be allowed to
withdraw with dignity that will save its
face. Otherwise the revolutionary arms.
REINFORCED by the administrations ad-
mission Of its powerlessness to subdue
the opposition, will be ousted with scant
ceremony by a successful army, repre-
sentipg the sentiment of the people,"

DISPUTE OVER FERRER
CAUSES CABINET CRISIS
Resignation of Spanish Minis
try Under CanaIejas Due
to a Dilemma.

MADRID, April 1.-The resignation OF
the cabinet Of Premier Canalejas today
was due to dilemma in which the
ministry was placed by the debate on
the republican motion In favor of a re-
vision Of the court-martial which resulted
in the condemnation Of Francisco Ferrer
founder Of the modern school in Spain.
The ministers underworld merely to be
onlookers in the duel between the con-
servatives, who were in office at the
time of the execution of Ferrer, and the
republicans. but finally were forced ia
intervene in order to defend the prin-
ciples of the governments procedure in
the court-martial. Their half-hearted
defense against the violent socialist and
republican attacks on the military au-
thorities, however, only provoked the re-
sentiment Of the latter, whose representa-
tions, it is understood. caused the crisis.
Military Cabinet Suggested.
1t was even suggested this morning that
a military cabinet should be chosen. but
it is probable that such a coalition would
be short-lived. The conservatives do not
wish a military government, and, re-
GREETING their attitude in the Ferrer de-
bate, are disposed to support Canalejas,
in order that the cortes shall remain
open and the Ferrer question be set
tied. Thus. it is likely that Canalejas
will remain premier, although he prob
ably will alter the makeup of his cab
met.
King Alfonso is expected to return from
Seville tomorrow to confer with the lead
ers.
Retiring Ministry.
The retiring ministry is composed as
follows:
Premier-Jose Canalejas Ymendes.
Minister Of foreign affairs-Garcia Prize
tro.
Minister Of the interior-Alfonto Cas-
tillo.
Minister of warden. Aznar.

at once to select the elective officers of
when the House organizes.
Former Representative South Trimble OF
Kentucky. who was slated for clerk. was
nominated by reclamation, no other can

There We're two candidates for sergeant
alarms, former Representative Ryan of
New York and L. S. Jackson of the DEM
Ocratic state committee of Indiana, for
each of whom hard canvass had been
made by their friends. Mr.. Jackson re-
ceived III votes to Mr.. Ryan's 81, and
was chosen.
No candidate for doorkeeper was named
against Joe T. Sinnott of Virginia one of
the veteran democratic empoyes OF for

The fight for postmaster was the hard

Little Discomfort Over Committees.

Never before have so many of the In
coming members of a new House been
so well provided for in committee assign
ments. AS result. most Of the new
members are entirely satisfied with the
present state of affairs. Those who do
not share the most desirable plums are
placated with assignments on reasonably
important committees.
Representative Clayton of Alabama. one
of the veteran members. said last night
that less than 3 per cent Of the demo-
cratic membership had expressed dissatis-
faction with the committee assignments,
and he considered that fact as indicative
of a marvel of accomplishment, compared
with previous Congresses.
He predicted, moreover, that even this
dissatisfaction would be dissipated Inn
mediately, and would not endure, as has
often been the case in the past, to tester
and produce rancor lasting throughout
the session.
Talking informally after the caucus last
night democratic leaders declared their
belief that the country would approve OF
the radical changes in rules and pro-
cedure, and Of the economies planned by
the democrats, and would also indorse
the legislative program agreed upon.
They declared that all of the legislative
policies Endorsed were popular I'm char
aeter and would give the country conf
dence At the very outset in the damo-
cratic majority In the new House.

Continued Harmony Predicted.

The House democrats have marked out
a hitherto untrod path Of legislative
procedure during the last thirty days.
trying a new method Of party control
wrested from the few and vested in the
men. %crship at large
Last night most of the democrats
frankly exulted in the success of their
efforts up to date, and predicted con-
tinued harmony and progress through
out the session. The elder statesmen
declared that never within their recol-
lection had new House been organ
lied SO promptly, SO satisfactorily and
with so little friction.
The expected clash over the commit
tee assignments did not materialize.
Some members explained the absence
of criticism by the fact that the new
method employed in making up the
subordinate bodies Of the House WAS
calculated to improve good feeling. One
potent force that worked to this end
was the rule that members Of the ways
and means committee, who have been
acting as democratic committee on COM
mittees. should not hold places on other
committees, and that members of the
appropriations committee should be
given no chairmanships. This plan
operated to provide satisfactory billets
for many of the older members. whose
claims for preferment it was necessary
to meet and left desirable assignments
to most Of the new members.

Last Sunday at Roundup, Har-

0. Though Roundup outplayed
Harlowton in this game, the score
speaks very little for the merits of
the two teams. Only four hits
were made off Grivetti, but these
came together in a rainy inning
coupled with unfortunate errors,
allowing the coal camp artists to
sew up the game. HarlowtOn ne
gotiated five hits off Khirsteller,
but could never advance a runner
further than the third sack due
to some extent to unfortunate
coaching. A return game will
probably be played with Roundup

ENTERTAINMENT A SUCCESS

The entertainment at the opera
last Tuesday evening, given by Mr..
and Mrs. G. r. McCalley assisted
by local talent was the best
ever" there not being a dull
moment during the entire evening
and clearly showed that both Mr..
and Mrs. McCalley are artists in
their line of work.
Mr.. McCalley rendered some
good selections from James Whit
comb Riley-but his burlesque
political speech-of his own COM
position, took the house. His
violin selections and imitation
showed marked ability as musi-
clan and called forth much ap.
plause.
Mrs. McCalley rendered num-
Der of musical reading which were
we'll received and clearly showed
that she has the talent and uses
it to perfection.
Rev. Klemme gave a cornet
selection that was very good and
should he ever decide to lay aside
the cloth would have no difficulty
in making good with some of the
leading musical organizations Of
the country.
Last but. not least were the
readings given by Miss McMahan,
which were cleverly rendered and
greatly appreciated by the
audience. Her take-off on the
local young people in The Coun-
try Dance" caused quite a stir.
Miss Burke and Rev. Klemme
presided at the piano and helped
materially in that line to make
the entertainment a success.
Taken as a whole, the large
audience was we'll pleased and
there is but one fault to be found,
there are not enough of them.

A second defeat of the season
was administered to Harlowton
Tuesday by the Redmen's team of
Anaconda. The Anaconda COM
bination had on their swatting
clothes and easily located the goat
of Freidlein who started in the
box for Harlowton. Five runs
were made in the first two innings.
At this stage Freidlein went to
first and Grivetti to the box.
Anaconda was held scoreless the
remainder of the game, except for
two donated by the umpire in the
eighth. The feature of the game
was the umpiring of the gentleman
from Anaconda, the like of which
was never seen ON a civilized ball
diamond. The mere fact that he
wasn't swatted for the count speaks
eloquently for the genuine sports
manship of the Harlowton boys.
The game was called in the eighth
inning, score 7 to 2 in favor of
Anaconda.
