SWEDISH KING
 CRITICISED BY
 HIS CABINET
OFFICIALS MAY RESIGN AS RE- SUIT OF SPEECH OF
 MONARCH.

STOCKHOLM, Feb. S.-Nearly all the members of the Swedish cabi- net have become so highly indignant concerning the speech made by the king to peasants Friday that they are threatening to resign. With the Russian war cloud hanging over the country, this threatened political strife is causing the greatest alarm throughout.
 The speech which the members of the cabinet are so severely criticis- ing was delivered by the king on Friday to 30,000 farmers, who march ei to this city and encamped near the palace The king who, like his predecessor, is noted for his demo- cratic ideas, took his hearers into his confidence on state affairs and asked their support for raising funds for a larger navy. The speech met with he approval of the farmers, who to man pledged their support to the kings war policy.
 the cabinet that the king in his talk 70 the peasants exceeded his au- thority by criicising the officials If the government, including them selves.
 One thing that is causing the mem bers of the cabinet to hesitate in car rying out their threat to resign is the popularity of the king with the peo- ple It is feared that any action taken by the cabinet to cast re- fiection on the king will arouse much adverse public sentiment, and will promote internal strife.
 There is little change in the war situation with Russia, but every possible preparation for national de- fense is being hurriedly made in an icipation of open hostilities.

Inquiries Being Made as to

Judging from the activity of the repre-
sentatives of railroads they have not as
yet definitely decided just where they
are at in the matter of accepting liquor
for shipment into territory that here
tofore had been considered dry. Rep
resentatives of these carriers have been
making inquiries at the supreme court,
from state officials and the attorney
generals office. In fact the West de-

stir since its publication through the
columns of the Capital News

the county from which it was created
was dry it is undecided just what its
status is The Idaho Falls Register
says with reference to the statement
that Bonneville county may be wet:
Runors on the street were rife to
the effect that the representative of an
Ogden brewing firm was spending the
day here soliciting orders and that the
Short Line was to accept liquor for
shipment into the supposed newly made
wet territory.
The rumor proved to be incorrect,
however, as diligent search failed to
locate the brewery agent and the local
officials of the Short Line state that
they have received no instruction to &C
cept liquor for shipment.
Several attorneys were questioned in
the matter and all refused to give a
positive opinion on the matter, stating
that from the newspaper reports of the

in the territory to be tapped receive
serious consideration on the part of the

that no difficulties of construction
have been encountered. Few bridges
will have to be built and there are no

curves 1t is also declared that the
greatest difference in elevation from
the starting point at any place on the
