Follow the Govern
ment London. May 5. In opposing the
womans' suffrage bill in the House
of Commons today, Premier Asqul'h
said he would resign in his colleagues
In the cabinet ever suggested that
they did not feel Justified In follow
ing a government, the head of which
was opposed to them.
When the debate was resumed this
afternoon, the premier defended the
government's course, saying It was
consistent with the best traditions of
British statesmanship
l'e resetted that he found himself
at variance from his colleagues on
the suffrage question and xreatly as
he would regret severing himself
from the prosecution of other cases
he would lay down his office if his
colleagues ever suggested that they
did not feel justified In following a
government, the head of which was
opposed to them
' They never did that. " declared the
premier amid cheers.
Mr Aaoulth said the bill created

ben approved by the existing elec

Had Not Neglected the Women
"Would our political fabric be
strengthened, would our legislative
fabric be more respected, would our

would our standard of manners and
by manner I mean the old-fashioned
virtues of chivalry, tourtesv and Inter-dependence
of the sexes on one
another be raised or refined if wom

Cries of of course they would"
were raised on all sides of the house
The premier strongly denied that
parliament had been neglectful of

statement that slavery exiBts in the

ace crime.' and adds.
"Not until recently has this ques
tion of slavery been brought up and
also for the purpose of telimc the
American people that the Philippine
assembly, as representing the capac

Is a failure. Governor Forbes
also gave out a statement similar to
Mr Worcester
Whether or not as a matter of

I Worcester has done enough not only

government desires to honor a grea'
Btate like Maine It must not do so by
I naming after It a tbree-blorks-lonK

I Representative Guernsey of Maine,
who has asked congress to Instruct
the commissioners of the District of

chot charged before the senate terri
tories committee today that privato
Interests had held up legislation to
open Alaskan coal fields under a leas
ing ay stem and named former Sena
etor Guggenheim of Colorado as one
of the men who had exerted his in
fluence to prevent such legislation. He
told the committee that he could get
the names of other men In and out
of congress who were In opposition
to the leasing system.
Mr Pinchot had been called to give
his opinion of the bill for Koverniiicn'

many years to get through congress.

gress have been Intluonced by pri
vate Interests against such legisla
tion0" asked Senator IJpplt
Names Senator Guggenheim.
"I mean what you all know, that
private Interests have great influence
in congress," returned Mr Piuchot.
"There waB strong opposition from
Senator Guggenheim to the passage
of the leasing bill ' There were oth
ers. I can get the names if you want
them "
The former foreBter declared that
in hia Judgment the government
should operate railroads In Alaska.
He believed in the loaslng system for
mines. He added that if the govern
ment had reinined possession of the
coal fields of Pennsylvania ther- nev
er would have been Buch "political
corruption" as he said exiBted in that
state.
Mr Pirn-hot advocated the retention
