Spring is here. All the signs say 50. The ice and snow have practical ly disappeared, spring hits are in evil Gence, robins are common sight, crows can be heard every morning. and building plans are looming up in the offing. Across the tables in res taurants one hears men talk of vaca- ton trips to the Maine woods, or fish ing trips to inland streams. Small boys are playing marbles on the streets. Maple trees are blooming in some parts of the city, May flow CTS have been heard from, pussy will lows and other harbingers of an early spring have appeared to vindicate the ground hog theory.

EARL OF DERBY NOT
 ID GOVERN INDIANS
Rejects Post of Secretary--Pre-
 mier's Position Shaky

London, March 16, tBy the Associ- iection of the Indian secretaryship coming after failure of the unionists meeting on Tuesday to give Premier Lloyd George q vote of confidence, forms the chief topic of conversation in political quarters where the effect on Lloyd Georges tenure of office is warmly debated.
 The refusal of Lord Derby to enter the government is believed to have been final and even the most ardent coalitionists are manifestly anxious in view of the failure of Tuesdays meet ing things out while current decisions determination of many conservatives to cut loose from the coalition.
 Opponents View.
 The premiers political enemies de- clare it Is impossible for him now to retain his position as head of the ad- ministration while depending mainly upon unionist votes, and urge that 1t is the time he recognized the fact and made his threatened resignation def mite.
 Meanwhile no word comes from Criccieth, Wales, regarding the pre- miers intentions. He is spending the time in resting, golfing and garden ing, and, as his friends say think ing thing out" while current decisions are left to Austen Chamberlain, and, as is widely asserted, the disintegra- ton of the coalition proceeds apace.
 It is stated in some quarters that Mir. Lloyd George has decided to pro- long his stay in Wales to see how far the ferment will work before he de- cares his hand.
 The Genoa Question.
 The question whether after all he will go to Genoa is also debated in political circles and it is suggested he is less eager than heretofore to par ticipate in the conference. It is also thought that, if the report that Pre- mier Poincare of France will not at tend proves true, Mir. Lloyd George will be still les reluctant to abandon the trip.
 It has been repeatedly stated that it was his desire to attend the Genoa meeting that mainly held him to the premiership, and it is thought that If he now resolves to forego the visit his resignation will soon be made final.
