STRIKE MAY DEVELOP
A POLITICAL CRISIS
Liberal Government in Great
Britain May Go Down and
Home Rule Be Postponed.

LONDON, March 17.-Settlement of
the coal strike seems not unlikely to
involve a serious political crisis. The op-
position party in the house Of com
mons had been expected to adopt an
attitude of benevolent neutrality to-
ward the governments minimum wage
bill.
Conservative organs. however, are
beginning 10 hint that unless the gov
ernments measure prove strong one,
such bepevolence cannot be counted on,
but that the opposition Will be free to
treat the bill as a contentious measure.
1t Is practically certain that any bill ac-
ceptable to the labor party will be dis
tasteful to the conservatives.
William j. Thoyne, M. p. for West
ham, declares that IL the strike lasts
six weeks the trades unions OF the coun"
try will he bankrupt, Much may de-
pend on the attitude of the Irish party
John Il. Redmond, the Irish narlia-
mentary leader. will be placed In n dif-
Ncult position. Nearly all the labor and
Socialist members OF the house OF COM
mons are home rulers whose sympathy
he desires to retain. but he would al
most be compelled to support the gov
ernment because a coalition of the con-
servatives. laborites and Redmondites
a gainst the minimum wage bill would
wreck the government and ruin the
chances of securing home rule.

Probable Contest.

The Blaine county delegation will prob

the nine delegates were elected by a
minority wing OF the county central com
mittee- There are nine committeeman
in Blaine county. Four OF them hold :
ing the proxies OF the other five, met and
selected the delegates to the Lewiston
convention. The claim is now made that
a minority number OF the committee
could not take this action.
The claim of the Borah people that the
junior senator has a chance to become
a dark horse candidate for president
with prospects of success, is based on
the assumption that Roosevelt has taken
Oklahoma from the solid south, hereto
foro claimed by Taft: he has a majority
if not all OF the New Mexico delegates,
and already has a number Of the Mis-
souri, district delegates and may soon
have the rest OF them. This leads them
TO the conclusion he will divide the south
ern delegations with Taft and he may
also divide the New England delegations
with TAFT and break even In the west
and central western states. will have
more delegates from Pennsylvania than
Taft and Will even get a portion OF the
Ohio delegates, La Toilette, with the
support Of Wisconsin and possibly Mime
sofa; Cummins with the support OF Iowa,
will force deadlock. making it possible
for a compromise candidate. and Senator
Borah will be sprung on the couven-
ton
