Ministry, and resigned from Parila-
ment to stand for reelection. This

REQUIRES a member of Parliament as
Stunning a new office to go before his
constituents for approval
This drastic elimination of the
army and navy crisis was announced
by the Premier in the House OF Com
mons to-day after he had stated tnat
his efforts to induce Colonel j. =. D.
Seely, Minister for War, to Withdraw
! his resignation had failed. He also
announced that General Ewart ana
Field Marshal French had refused 10
reconsider their designations.
The Premier eulogized both French
and Ewart and said that he deeply
deplored the declaration of Colonel
Seely.
4 therefore feel it my duty to as
sumo the Secretaryship Of state LOT
War" the Premier then announced.
Approved by King.
He added that his action had been
approved by King George and tnat
| he had taken this important step. m
! Difference to public interests, but that
he would be close at hand at the sec
ond reading of the home rule Dill.
This measure comes up tomorrow.

All London Excited.
The excitement over the dramatic
resignation of the Premier was not
confined to Parliament. 1t caused a
tremendous sensation throughout the
city, where such a startling develop

abe widest rumors
After Premier Asquith LETT the
House Of Commons, Colonel Seely eN-
planned his position He said he nac
pressed his resignation because there
appeared to have been bargain
though unintentional. regarding the
servicesNhat the army officers should
render the Crown. He followed this
with a declaration that he would con-
tinue to support the Premier and tbs
Government as a whole.
The Unionists attempted to precip'

Restraint Of Trade.

Duluth Herald: The Toledo Blade
tells two stories which illustrate in
terestingly the complexity of the So
called trust problem
The first Is about three American
coal companies. The three were
neighbors. Two were rich and we'll
established, one was just beginning.
When the hard times of 1913 came
along the two powerful companies
wanted to enter into an agreement SO
the poor ompan could be carried
along, but they were advised that this
was action in restraint Of trade and
would lay every official concerned
open to a term in Jail.
SO the little company had to shift
for itself. and it went down in the
wreck. Now there are two compan-
les instead of three, as a result OF
competition, and the reduction from
three to two eliminates the need OF
competition. In other words, the eff
feet the law fears was brought abou
by the laws operation.
Paralleling this case, The Blade tells
this story Of a court decision in Eng
land, also affecting coal mines:
For many years the district o.
| Newcastle, in Australia, was the sole
important coal producing section O.
the colony. For forty years, the pro
ducers made contracts with their la
Dor so that the wage was fixed II
! proportion to the price of coal. II

| each "a cents increase. The arrange
ment was satisfactory all around. AM

cinity Of the mines.
About ten or twelve years z a
new coal district was opened. Com
petition brought the mines of the two
fields near to ruin. Wages went down
and workmen deserted their homes to
seek more remuneratiVe labor else
where. Finally, at the most desperate
point, an agreement was entered into
by the producers. Prices were fixed.
There was money again for the pro-
motion of sales and the opening OF
new veins. Wages came back to their
former standard.
I'm time the coal companies were
brought into court and convicted Of
violation of a law prohibiting restraint
Of trade. But on appeal to England,
the decision vas reversed. The court
said: It can never De Of real bene-
fit to the consumers Of coal that col
liery proprietors should carry on their
business at a loss, or that any profit
they make should depend upo the
minimum. Where these conditions
prevail the less remuneratiVe cOllieries
will be closed down. there will be a
great loss of capital, miners will be
thrown out of employment, less coal
will be produced and prices Will con
s~euuently rise Until it becomes pos
sible to reopen the closed collieries or
open other seams. The consumers OF
coal will lose in the long run
