EIGHT ON BALLINGER

According to a Washington special
Louis r. CLAWS is making both new
and old charges against Secretary
Balllnger. These statements are
said to be of the most convincing
character and will, it is thought, in
jure President Taft's administration
unless he asks for the resignation Of
the secretary. 1t is generally ad-
mitted In Washington that con
gressional investigation is a certain
ty. The friends of the administra-
tion are getting tired of the Bal
linger business and they are disposed
to make quick work of It and get rid
OF the scandal on the cabinet.
They are not disposed to await a
long drawn out congressional In
quiry. II only half Of the charges
are true It will, by long odds, be the
worst scandal on any national admin
istration for a quarter Of n century.
People generally begin to believe
that where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire. Golfers
Weekly publishes the charges in full
this week.
1t may be that Secretary Balinger
Is much abused man and that the
president is justified in the confid-
ence he reposes in him, but the peo-
pie do not feel so confident, and il
will take something more than the
Scotch verdict Of mot proven" TO
convince them. The facts are that
In some way Mr.. Ballinger at one
time brushed up against some very
questionable people and, while Il
may be true that he is really inno-
cent OF any wrong doing, he will be
under the necessity Of proving It to
the satisfaction of the American peo-
pie. A cabinet officer is required to
be like Caesars wife, "above sus-
picion." He in reality Is in a bad
Tx with these charges hanging over
him, Should he resign now, It will
be taken as an evidence of guilt. and
II he does not resign his enemies will
continue to harass him. This case
is already stencil In the nostrls of
those who take pride in the integrity
OF the presidents cabinet. The press
reports say that he has instructed
his lawyers In New York city to bring
proceedings for libel against Golfers
Weekly If, in their Judgment such
q charge can be maintained for the
publication Of the CLAWS article.

California's fruits will be inspect

it will be continued until the last foe
