COALITION GOVERNMENT
Is LOSING SEATS
But 1t Cannot Be Turned Out Because
There Is Nobody to Take
Its Place.

London, Jan. l4.--"The coalition gov.
ernment is losing seats in Parliament
and the handwriting on the wall Is
against it, but nevertheless it cannot
be turned out. because there is nobody
to take its place, declared Viscount
Haldane, former high chancellor, at
Edinburgh on Tuesday. Viseount Hal
dane. who is an acute Liberal party
politician. asserted he did not believe
either the Laborites, Liberals or any
other party was likely to come into
power in the near future, and that a
change in the government could not be
brought about until strong, united
opposition to the coalition regime could
be formed
Such an opposition, he argued, could
be established only by the formation
of great progressive party composed
of I.aborites and Liberals. He said:
Labor has captured the heights and
we Liberals are down in the plains.
The speaker appealed TO the Liberals
to 'reeapture the heights from labor
and show the country they had some
thing to preach even wider than labor"
He said groups of the best thinkers in
the United States had conferred on the
same problem and had put into opera
tion program OF building series of
bridges between the individual and the
state SO that the state should not be
apart, but be an intelligent
expression Of the best col
Iective win. He asserted that it Vas,
on such lines that Liberals
and Laborites might cooperate.
Whether Niscount Haldanes plea
will be endorsed by H. H. Asquith, for
mer premier, of whom the viscount is
supporter, remains to be seen.

A rather interesting incident occurred
during the morning session of the court
Tuesday, following which it will be
well for attorneys TO advise their print
ers relative to the size of their
briefs should be printed. 1t appears
that in the case of State VS.. Lowe the

error in size. The court rules prescribe
