Is the Corn Belt Going south :

What is this trick they are trying to
play on the demure Miss Maize? Are
they pretending that she is as tickle as
Dame Fashion and cannot decide
where her waist line ought to be?
Here comes the Washington Post with
the prediction that 1.-The corn belt will
move south" when they reclaim their
swamp land down there and that it
will be located in North Carolina,
Mississippi and even Louisiana before
very long. We refuse to believe in
the caprice of Miss Maize. We refuse
to impute any such worldly vanity to
her. For these years she has worn
her belt in the same place, and we do
not believe she is going to shift it now.
To drop it to Louisiana would put the.
young lady squarely in the hobble-
skirt class and nobody must think OF
hobbling her. for her progress cannot
be impeded, nor even her strides short
ened.
The south will and must grow more
and better corn, but simply because a
boy in North Carolina leases a single
acre of ground, which probably has
been a garden patch for ages, into
yielding 22s bushels OF corn Is no rea-
son to believe that the corn belt is
going to be shifted from around the
waist OF Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kan
sas and Nebraska to that Of these
southern states. Every step forward
the south makes in the culture OF corn
or anything else gratifies her sister
\ states up this way and they are
pleased to learn that the land OF Dixie
has caught the spirit and Is going
ahead in every branch Of industry 50
fast and steadily. But while she Is
retaining her swamp land and max
ing it fit to grow corn, these states
where the corn scientist make their
headquarters. are going right along
quietly with the business Of making
two blades Of grass grow where but
one grew before" praoticing the
principles Of intensive farming, SO
what is to prevent them from keep.
ing the corn belt in place? They have
the soil, the climate and the experience
and they ought in all reason to be able
to keep up in results from now on
with their neishbOrs down south, who
have to adapt their soil to get most Of
their experience and whose climate Il
not as good for corn as that further

TENURE OF CATHOLIC PASTORS.
Features of the New Rules Governing

Features of the New Rules Governing
Changes.
81. Louis Republic.
The distinction heretofore between the
status OF removable rectors Of Catholic
parishes or rectors subject to assignment
by the bishop at will, and irremovable rec
tors has been pretty generally understood.
Dispatches from Rome outline a most in
teresting change in the rules governing the
church which practically seems to give all
reotors In America, when once settled over
a parish. the status OF irremovabls rectors.
AS interpreted, a late decree OF the con-
sistoral congregation makes the transfer OF
a pastor from his old parish a much more
formal matter than II has been heretofore
After being assigned TO a charge a cler-
gyman can only be removed for certain
causes which are specifically enumerated
IN the decree and after trial before a trl-
bunal Of three, OF which the bishop is the
head. In the event that the decision Of
the first tribunal is adverse, an appeal can
be taken to q new second tribunal, OF
which, however, the bishop IS again a
member.
or course, proceedings Of this formallty
are enjoined only In cases where removal
Is attempted against the desire Of the cler-
gyman Up TO this time only irremovable
reotors have had a tenure that could not
be terminated except on charges duly ad-
Indicated and this decree constitutes an
important restriction on the episcopal
power, though the conjecture that Il h one
most bishops viii welcome Is undoubtedly
we'll founded.
The new procedure will at least enable
the one whose removal Is sought 10 know
the grounds for the action and will conflne
the possibility OF removal 20 certain well
defined causes having a manifest relation
TO pastoral usefulness.
Tho decree. which is made applicable to
ali countries, is said TO be a part Of the
work OF g commission 20 which the pope
has entrusted the eodifying OF the intricate
canon law. Like the common law that
governs the decisions OF the secular courts
in English-speaking countries. the canon
law that has grown up through the centu-
ries for the government Of the church has
come 70 need revision ana simphfication.
