ASQU|TH WAR CHIEF
CABINET HEAD ASSUMES OFFICE
AFTER sEELY REFUSED TO
WITHDRAW RESIGNATION.
RESIGNED FROM PARLIAMENT
English Statesman, in Accordance
With Law, Stands for Reelection
Officers Absolutely Decline to Re.
tain Rank in Army.

London, April Following all the
many solutions of the government
crisis which had been proposed and
discussed Premier Asquith announced
a decision to the house of commons
on Monday which none of the prophets
had expected or even suggested.
The prime minister himself will as
sumo the burden of the war office, in
addition to his other and almost crush
ing duties. He will resign from the
house at this critical stage, when the
second reading of the home rule bill is
about to be taken up, and will appeal
to his constituents in East Fife, Scot
land, within a few days for reelection.
Field Marshal Sir John French, chief
of the imperial general staff, and Gen.
Sir John Ewart, adjutant general, de-
clined to withdraw their designations,
In spite of the army order, which Wis
count Haldane cleverly framed as a
platform on which the generals might
stand with consistency and honor.
1t thus became impossible for Col.
j. e. B. Seely, who was co-signer with
them of the assurance to Brigadier
General Cough that the army would
not be used to suppress the Ulster Op'
position to home rule, to retain the
secretaryship for war. His resigna-
ton, therefore, was accepted after he
had been for some days under fire
from the newspapers of his own party,
which insisted that he must go.
Viscount Morley of Blackburn, lord
president of the council, who was part
ner with Colonel Seely III drafting the
offending paragraphs of the docu-
ment, stands in the same position and
his withdrawal from Office is expected.
The only practical loss to the party
meantime will be the withdrawal Of
Mr.. Asquith's voice from the debates.
"Oh, I'll be handy If Pm wanted"
Mr. Asquith remarked to Andrew
iBonar Law, the opposition leader, who
thought that the home rule bill could
not be proceeded with in the absence
of the premier.
Mr.. Asquith apparently consulted no
one { cept the king before his bold
dOOAo1OA 1AA0 COAAOo60OO LII tA1O GOO4AOI
seemed to be as surprised as the other
members of the house when he re-
vealed his plans. Mr.. Asquith is al
ready first lord of the treasury.
The political seers gather that Mr..
Asquith is in fighting mood. They
have been saying recently that he had
shown the effects in his physical ap-
pearance Of the heavy strain Of his
Tong labor in Office and would gladly
see the government defeated. But it
looks at the present moment as though
he had taken a new lease of life and
proposes to make the reorganization
of the army a fighting issue.
THE whole army system may have
to be recast," Colonel Seely remarked
significantly.
Both houses debated the situation at
great length, but the debates simmered
down into mere assertions, on the one
side, of plot to seduce the army and,
on the other side, of a plot to crush the
Ulster covenanters with denials and
counterdenials and heated personal
tiles

SEVERAL FACTS IN THIS.

The Twin Falls Chronicle puts its
finger on one weak place in the dem
ocratic Organization of Idaho when
il complains of the lack of strong
press. There are 146 newspaper in
the state and but twenty of them are
democratic. The worst of it is that
the democrats have no state paper.
no paper Of commanding influence,
no daily at all at the capital of the
state or at any other point strategic
ally relatedto the whole state.
The Chronicle comment:
"The lack ola strong press
has been the greatest handicap
of the party in its several cam
paigns since the state was or
ganized, yet what the demo-
cratic press has lacked in num-
bers it, in measure, has made
up IN zeal and fearlessness.
The lack Of healthy paper at
the state capital has always
been one of the greatest draw
backs to the party
Its a peculiar falling of many
democratic oficeho Iders that
they do not give their newspa-
pers the same loyal support /
that republicans do. That is
one of the reasons there are
not more democratic papers in
the state. and consequently, /
more democratic of6ceholders.
The Chronicle is we'll within the
truth when it says that one reason
why democratic papers are not more
numerous is that they do not receive
the same loyal support from demo-
cratic ofhceholders that republicans
do from theirs. This Is true both in
the counties and in the state at
large.
The democrats should have a
state organ comparable to that of
any party, and they would if the
leaders devoted as much time to
building up the party as they do to
their own personal organizations.
The democracy of this state should .
have strong party organ at the
state capital. II should belong to c
the whole party or its ownership
should at least be so distributed that
all sections would be represented. 0

Mr.. Business Man, in your race
for a goal, the more direct your
course the quicker the attainment.
Every deviation means so much loss
of energy and distance. In the adj
vertising field your home newspaper
is your direct course. The circular,
calendar, ETC., are digressions. This
has been proven by the investment of
many thousands of dollars by the
largest users Of advertising space In
the country. True, constant assoc
citation with your home paper and its
makers causes you to feel that it
lacks the appeal of novelty ;but If you
put real appeal in your newspaper
it will get the results far better than
any other medium In the printed line.
When you figure that you must send
out something new to attract the
trade, change your ad and put that
something new in it. The new idea
will then unfold itself before the
most people at less cost; and they
will grasp it too, even though it has
been imported. Some scatter too
much, and then complain that adj
vertising doesn't pay. Every week
The Herald will tell your story to
1000 people in Lewis county. II is
the paying way.

company gives free moving pic
ture show in the school house to
their employees, and these pictures
are as good and entertaining as
the best that are shown in the
various towns throughout the
state. The schools and school
buildings compare most favorably
with those of much larger towns
in the state, and the building is
well ventilated, steam-heated,
well-lighted and convenient in
every respect. Mr.. Macdonald
was in company with Mr.. Fergu-
son when he cashed the checks
for the miners. Whilst the mines
are now only working three days
i'll the week on account of the lack
of demand for the coal, the com
pany pays each two weeks. He
paid out thousands of dollars
in cashing checks, and the small
est amount paid out for the six
days work was 500, while many
received much higher amounts, as
high as $50. Mr.. Macdonald saw
no script used in the payments.
In company with Mr.. Smith
and others Mr.. Mae visited Hast
ings, met Mr.. Cameron, the sup
erintendent, and found him very
genial gentleman. In fact, he
found this the case not only with
all the superintendents, managers
and operators, but also with the
miners whom he met. At Hastings
he found conditions about the
same as at Tabasco. He then went
to Delaugua, carrying a letter Of
introduction to Mr. Ben Snod-
grass, who received him most cor
daily and treated him with all
possible civility, extended him the
privileges of the camp and assist
ed him in every manner. Mr.. Mae
Donald was in Delaugua for the
purpose of looking over the sit
nation with the view of organizing
a tribe of Redmen, and which will
be done shortly, and in which Mr.
Snodgrass gave him much encour-
agement.
During his visit in the coal
camps he took this occasion to as
certain in better manner the con-
ditions than he had heretofore
been able to, and taking every
thing into consideration he found
that the people were more con-
tented than they are in some of
the metal mining camps.

1t seems strange that when rates

not advertise the fact so that the
travelling public may know. AS
it is, people know not h ne about

chant has reduced rates or a sale
he advertises this fact instead Of
putting his light under a bushel

The mining activity both in the
Newhouse tunnel mines and also
in the Big Five has been very
large during the past several
months and preparations are in
process to increase the output very
materially during the coming year.
Deep mining is causing all its for
mer critics to pull in their horns
and confess that the deep mines
are great producers.
