French CABINET
IS READY TO FALL
May Resign Next Monday II
Present Conditions Do Not
Change

Paris, Feb. 25-Premier BRAND,
for the first time in his brilliant ca
reer as controlling influence In the
government of France, finds himself
on shifting sands. 1t is quite proba-
BILE that the resignation of the cabi-
net will be presented to President
Fallieries on Monday. If this course
is not adopted it will be more because
of the urgency of personal friends
and the fact that no other leader ap-
pears available than because of any
desire on the part of the premier to
continue the fight against the radi-
cal Socialists and Anti-Clericals. But
beyond the matter of his personal in
clinations there is an unquestioned
weakening of the premier's power and
of confidence in his ministry. The
leader. who has before survived grave
crisises, last night escaped the CEN
sure of the government by bare ma
jority of sixteen votes.
The Socialists who have never for
given the premier for modifying the
extreme ecclesiastical views which he
championed when he first entered
public life, have attacked him per.
sistently and at last night session

Washington. Feb. 25.-Responsibil-

are now confronted was charged
In part to the farmers themselves by
Senator McCumber Of North Dakota
today in a speech in the senate against
the Mccall bill, which puts into form
for the enactment into laws the pro-
visions of the Canadian reciprocity
agreement.
Holding that the ratification of the
agreement would spell disaster for
the agricultural interests the senator
said that their having loaned their
ears to arguments that were urged
for lower rates of duty at the time OF
the passage of the Payne-Aldrich bill
and their having given their votes in
the ensuing election to the opponents
of those members Of congress who
had voted with the leaders in the two
houses, had been the undoing of the
farmers. He declared that when the
crusade against the whole tariff sys-
TEN was launched in the press that
natural conservation lost her. bal

was condemned. That we need mon

Mr.. McCumber referred to the sec

Of the country to have it's own pro-

FARM STATISTICS
Census Bureau Issues State.
ment About the Resources
Of the State

Washington. Feb. 25.-Census Di-
rector Durand issued today the first
official statement from the census
bureau relative to the agricultural
statistics of the state. of Montana
collected at the Thirteenth decennial
United States census. April IS, 1910.
1t is based on q preliminary COM
parative summary submitted to the
director by DR.. Le Grand Powers,
chief statistician Of the division of
agriculture In the bureau Of the cen
sus. This summary shows. for both
the census Of 1910 and that of 1900.
the reported total value Of farm land.
buildings, Implements, and machin-
cry; total acreage; improved acre
age; average acres per farm; aver
age value per acre Of farm and build
ings; average value per acre Of farm
land alone; and the aggregate ex-
penditures for labor and fertilizers.
It also distributes the total number
err; specified character Of tenure;
whether held free or mortgaged by
owners; and by certain acreage
groups.
The director gives notice that the
summarys figures are subject to re-
vision later, owing to the fact that a
number Of farms whose returns are
incomplete will be included in the
final tables. These additions will not
in all probability. modify any Of the
amounts or rates contained in the
present statement.
The Grow Indian Land.
It Is also explained in the sum-
mary that the figures include an area
of 3,500,000 acres In the Crow In
dian reservation, which In 1900 was
occupied for grazing purposes by q
corporation that had leased tho land
from the Indians. No such lease ex-
listed in 1900. although at the time
the census was taken only small
portion Of the reservation was used
for agricultural pursuits. For pur-
poses of comparison, totals for 1900
are given, inclusive and exclusive OF
this land.
Increase and Decrease.
It Is pointed out In the statement
today that the principal rates Of In.
crease in Montana In 1910, az against
1900, are: In the total value Of all
farm land alone. a94 per cent; In the
total value of farm land and build

ment, and that he ,cauld not, vote for
the a0o1ting Of the e4po:st.
Sorlie's+ Stand
Sorlie said that six out of seven
men. all representative of the body,
and honest men, had found no cause
for further action against Judge
Cowan, and he was satisfied. He said
he believed there was concerted ac-
tion to force different conclusion.
but that as far as Cowan was con-
cerned he asked for nothing more
than justice and that he was willing
to believe that the committee report
gave him that and no more.
Let us not repeat the Dreyfus
case," said he. He claimed that
newspapers had created public pref
udice but said he would not convict
on prejudice. Continuing, he said:
There are nine members here from
Cowan's district and not one of them
are against Cowan. The prosecutors
of these charges against the Judge of
the Second district had to pussyfoot
around this house to get a member
outside Of the district to start pro-
ceedings."
He said that the members from
Cowan's district were representative
men, and were willing, like the ma
jority Of members, to rely on the COM
mittee report, while the anti-Cowan
men were relying on the press. He
condemned as "black hand proceed
ings" the tactics employed by the
prosecutors of the Cowan case.
Did Not Notify House.
Doyle of Foster wanted to know If
the committee had ever notified the
house, that they were disregarding the
instructions Of the body appointing
them in the matter Of making q rec
ord 80 that the testimony could be re-
turned with their reports, and the
speaker stated that there was no spe-
cial report covering such facts. Doyle
argued that such procedure was un-
heard of and that heretofore through
out the history of house proceedings
so far as he knew them, in all matters
where committees brought in a divid-
ed report, no matter how trivial
might be the matter reported upon,
the two reports, together with the
subject matter, were considered in q
committee Of the whole house. He
said this report threw the RESPONSE
bility on the house and If they were
to vote intelligently. they must have
more light on the matter and not de-
pend solely upon the opinion Of six
members of the committee who had
disregarded their Instructions.
O'Connor's Stand.
O'Connor Of Grand Forks said that
when the resolution for Impeachment
proceedings came up in the house, 1t
had passed almost unanimously; that
heroic efforts had been made to have
such action reconsidered next day, but
had failed and dwelt on the fact that
the specific instruction Of the house
had been disregarded. He said: 'The
chairman says there was no money
with which to employ q stenographer
and In the next breath tells us that
an offer was made to take care Of the
stenographer. Why did he not ac-
cept that offer? In my opinion their
minds were made up to whitewash?' p

Streeter Of Emmons interrupted
with point of order that O'Connor's
language was improper and the chair
sustained the objection
Continuing, O'Connor said that the
house did not know what they were
voting for; that even in a case of
shooting dog, no decision was given
without a record of testimony, but
here was case where mans char
acter was attacked and that in his
opinion. il the mode of procedure at
tempted prevailed, nothing worse
could be done to blacken his charac-
for
