TWO Ex-PREMIERs IN CABINET
Situation In sritIsh Politics That Has Never Before Occurred ls Among
 the Possibilities.

Herbert II. AsQuith, former premier, is often mentioned as a possible addi' ton to the present cabinet. The Man chester Guardian points out that flthiS happens Lloyd George will have two former prime ministers among his su0- urdinatcs. There Is no former instance of this state of things in modern his tory. and it Is q long time now since an English government contained in secondary place even one former pre- mier.
 The classical case occurred about the middle of last century, and Is furnish rd by the game of see-saw which was played by Lord John Russell and Lord PalmcrStOn. In the government Ot 1S4G-52 Lord John Russell was prime minister and Lord PalmerstOn foreign secretary, and in the government of lSI9-65 their two positions were ex- aCtly reversed.
 It was Lord John Russelrs excep- tionul fate tO be prime minister from the age of tifty-fOur till that of sixty, to be in and out of subordinate office, under Lord Aberdeen and then under Lord PulmerSton, from sixty to seven- ty-three and at that age to be prime minister again.
 If Lloyd George gets Mir. Asquith as well as Mir. Balfour he will have all the living former premiers except one, the exception being Lord ROsebery, whose period of otiiCe-l5 months-was so short as to compare with the mete- oric premiership of the age of Can ninH.

ANNOUNCEMENT

wish to advise the people of Jules
burg and vicinity that have recently
located here as district manager of the
Federal Land Co.. of Burns, Wyo.,
which is located near the center of the
famous Golden Prairie district of
Southeastern Wyoming, on the Union
Pacific R. R., % miles east of Chey-
enne, Wyo., which is only 120 miles
west of here. My business will be to
give absolute and truthful informa-
ton concerning this most productive
and growing country, where on ac-
count of our fertile soil and excellent
climatic conditions, we believe more
grain can be produced per man than
in any other locality in the west. And
also being so favorably located to the
markets of the mining and oil dis
tricts makes an exceptionally good
market for dairy and poultry products.
