Famous Church ReOpened.

Ihls church vas among the prop

time OF the constitutional reform
movement and the separation of
church from State in Mexico. It was
later conditionally restored as a house
or Catholic worship ,and in 1904 con-
demned again by the government for
the purpose Of enlarging the federal
district and palace of justice and civ
IL courts building. The church was
constructed about IT'S years ago out
OF funds donated by a wealthy Span
ish countess and placed in charge of
the religious order that conducted
the Ensenaneza convent now used
by the federal courts.
In addition to the handsomely cary

Another Horace Mack.

Horace Mack, who has been en-
ployed as porter by DeLorme's Phar-
macy for the past eight years and
who also runs public hack has been
very much annoyed and worried re-
Gently by the fact that another negro
of the same name has been arrested
for various infractions of the law
and is under indictment for trial at
the next term of the Court Of General
Sessions. Some people have jumped
at the conclusion that DeLorme's
Horace Mack has fallen into evil ways
and have asked him about being in
dicted. This Horace wants everybody
to know that he is still working at
the same place and is in no wise con-
nected with the Horace Mack, who is
under indictment.

FOrccasting The Next Congress.

From present indications the next
| national house of representatives will
| be Democratic. The signs point un-
mistakably in this direction. But the
majority by which the Democrats will
control the popular assembly is quite
| another thing.
III the table which has recently been
completed by some of the more en-
thusiastice prophets is verified by re-
suits, the Democrats will carry 22i
districts and the Republicans 1876 dis
tricts in the fall elections, giving the
former an emphatic majority with
which to organize the next house and
to choose the next speaker.
According to this forecast the
Democratic congressman will be dis
tributed as follows: Alabama g.,
Arkansas Z. California 8, Colorado 8,
Connecticut 1, Delaware 1, Florida 8,
Georgia IL. Idaho 1, Illinois 10, In
diana 8, Iowa 3, Kansas 2, Kentucky

Oregon 2, Pennsylvania Z, Rhode
Island l, South Carolina Z, South Da-
kota l, Tennessee s, Texas 16, Vir-
ginia 8, West Virginia 2, Wisconsin 8.
| Total 224.
The Republicans will be apport-
| Toned in the following manner: Cal

Solid Democratic delegations are
given to thirteen states: Alabama, Ar
kansas, Colorado, Delaware, Florida,
Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Maine,
Mississippi, Montana, South Carolina
| and Texas.
Solid Republican delegations are
conceded to ONLY seven states. Now
| Hampshire, North Dokato, Oregon,
Utah, Vermont, Washington and Wy
oming.
New York's delegation will be di-
vided into almost equal halves.
In view Of the fact that in the pres
ent house the Republicans have u
majority Of Sc, it will require some
thing Of an upheaval to give the
Democrats a majority of 5S; but upon
such an outcome scores of enthusias-
tic Democrats are counting. Even
the opposition virtually comedies de-
feat.
With tn senate Republican how
ever. it will be impossible to effectu-
ate any Democratic legislation along
radical lines, but reform measures can
be passed by the house and RESPONSE
bility for defeating them can be put
upon the party in power.-Atlanta

Mr.. BALLINGER'S SNAKE-KILL
ING CAMPAIGN.

Il intended TO Kill some snalIes"
exclaimed Secretary Ballinger with a
sardonic smile when he was on the
witness-stand before the Congress
ional Investigating Committee. The
snakes" are the men in his depart
ment who have failed to stand by
him." When CLAWS unearthed the
Cunningham claims, CLAWS was
promptly discharged. When Kirby
told the facts in regard TO the pre-
paration of the Taft letter of vindi-
cation, Kirby was discharged. Now
Mr.. Ballinger has set about the work
Of driving from the Government SER
vice those who gave testimony that
was unfavorable to him. He has sum-
marily discharged Horace II. Jones.
Jones was the special agent of the
Land Office who collected consider
able evidence tending to prove the
fraudulent character of the Cunning
ham coal-land claims. He was sum-
moned by the investigating commit
ee. was compelled to testify, and,
though every effort was make to
break down his testimony, it stood
the test. This testimony involved
Ballinger and his friends. Ballinger
orders the dismissal of Jones.
The Director of the Reclamation
Service and the Chief Engineer dis
agreed with Mr.. Ballinger on many
points. They questioned the truth
OF some of his statements. 1t is un-
derstood that both officials will be re-
moved.
But the Ballinger snake killing
campaign by no means ends with
those he regards as his active 'ene-
mics" 1t extends to officials who re-
fused to aid ii his defense. Prof.
Joseph A. Holmes is regarded as the
ablest expert in certain features of
mining and mine-rescue work in this
country. Congress created a Bureau
of Mines in order to extend the not
able work in which Professor Holmes
mas been engaged for several years,
and no other man was thought of for
the first chief of this bureau. Holmes
takes no interest whatever in politics.
He refused to take sides or to be
mixed up in any way with the Bal
linger affair. He spent his time in
attending strictly to business. Holmes
was the co-worker of Secretary Gar
field and Clifford Pinchot In the pre-
vious administration. But he failed
to rush to the rescue of Ballinger, and
the Secretary of the Interior is do
ing everything in his power to hu-
initiate DR.. Holmes and appoint an
ether man chief of the Bureau of
Mines.
Mr.. Ballinger is sorely taxing the
patience of the American people. His
attitude on the witness stand and his
course since that time show clearly
what manner Of man he Is.
1t Is not the Joneses and the Glav-
ises of this administration who de-
serve removal, but the Ballngers,
the Dennetts and all the kit and crew
of servile underlings who sneeze ev-
cry time the Secretary takes snuff
In spite of all the "vindication" that
whitewashing committees can fur
nish. in spite of all the letters OF "ex-
oneration' that friendly attorneys
can draft and the President sign, the
head of Ballinger himself is demand
ed by the people Of the United States
and Mr.. Taft will be forced to recog-
nize that demand, or still further
weaken and disorganize his party

Just precisely the quality and quantity
of work that he has always done, but let
little new blood be infused into his
task, few new ideas introduced into
it's management. and he will probably
find 1t such uphill work to keep pace
with modern methods that he will be far
outstripped and left behind to his narrow,
roped-in, unprogressive existence. An ar
ticle in the current number of Success
Magazine compares men in such a condi-
ton to buildings which have either fallen
down or been taken down because their
owner tried to build one or more storie
on the top of an old building which did
not have sufficient foundation to carry
the new structure" Men who have but
insecure foundations upon which to build
will find their houses topping about their

durance comes; and that tremendous test
is made in these days Of increasing power
and unceasing advancement is not to be
questioned.
