SENTIMENT FAVORABLE
TO METHODIST UNION

Chattanooga, May 1.-THE joint
com mmission on federation of the M. f..
church, the Methodist Protestant and
VI. Z. church, south, in session here to
consider the reported of federation is
making progress slowly. Three joint
sessions were qeld this morning when
the discussion was resumed. The first
item of the report suggests change of
name and recommends two names, the
Methodist Episcopal church in
America and the Methodist church.
This item was passed over informal
ly to be taken up later on, but it seems
that this has been tie fate of each item
of recommendation and not single one
beyond o few immaterial headings
have been adopted.
One important item on the defini-
tion of the creeds brought forth lot
of discussion, when the old arguments
raised at the Birmingham conference
of the M, 4. church, south, were re-
vived, but the matter was finally laid
aside for further consideration.
1t seems that no Que of the commits
sioners is willing to become an obsta-
Gle in the way of the proposed fedora
tion and hence the belief that the re-
port in It's present form with few mi
nor amendments will be adopted mere
Iy as tentative plan and referred to
the general conference of the churches
for finnal disposition.

COUNTRY AND
CITY ARRAYED

Washington, May I3.-Country
and city were arrayed against each
other at the Canadian reciprocity
hearing before the senate finance
committee, Farmers from Mime
sofa and North Dakota denounced
the agreement, while members of
boards of trade from cities along the
international boundary endorsed it
unqualifedly.
H. P. Collins, editor of farm pa
per in the northwest, declared that
support of reciprocity was due large
ly to misinformation. He referred
to President Taft's message in which
reference was made to provinces in
Canada, which, Mr.. Collins said,
had ceased to exist years ago."
Mr.. Collins said he had been a re-
publican all his life, but he did not
know which way to turn now"
I'VE will comfort you," volun-
teered Senator Bailey, the Texas
Democrat.
." We have learned in times past
to fear Greeks bearing gifts" retort-
ed the editor.

PEACE PROSPECTS
IN MEXICO BRIGHT

Juaroz, Mexico, May .1S.-Prospects
for restoring peace in Mexico became
noticably bright here today when pro
visional government officials read the
explanation given by Minister Liman-
tour in an associated press dispatch
from Mexico City last night concern
ing President Diaz' real intention about
continuing in power. Most of the lead
ers were surprised TO read that Judge
Carbajal, the federal envoy, had been
sent message by Minister Limantour
after the Diaz mnnifesto was issued
and dis satisfaction with its contents
was apparent, asking tho rebels to
state in what terms they wished the
Diaz announcement to be made.
Rebel leaders declared that had such
a message reached their ears, peace ne
gotiations probably would have long
ago been resumed.

INVESTIGATION
IN TENNESSEE
OF FEDERAL OFFICEH0LDERs
President, National Civic Service
and Civil Service Commission
to Take Up the Charges

Nashville, May 1c.-Senato1
Houk's resolution requesting thu
National Civil Service Reform
League, President Taft and the
United States civil service com
mission to investigate the activity
of the federal officholders in Ten
nessee in state politics, has al
least been called to the attention
of these different parties, anc
they promise that the matter will
be Investigated.
The resolution introduced by
Mr.. Houk and passed by the sen.
ate, called attention to the fact
that fifteen out of the twenty
members at meeting of the state
republican committee were either
federal officeholders or we're rep
resented by federal officeholders,
who held their proxies. 1t also
called attention to the fact that
reliable citizens had been inform
ed after the meeting that the
state committee had indorsed the
action of the runaway members
of the Legislature.
Copies of the resolution were
sent to President Taft, the Ma
tional Civil Service Reform league
and the civil service commission,
and Senator Houk has received
replies from all, each promising
that the activity of the federal
officeholders will be investigated.
Chas. b. Hilles, secretary to Pres
ident Taft, answered for the pres
ident, and stated that the matter
would be brought to the presi-
dents attention. The answer of
the civil service commission is to
the effect that the matter will be
carefully Investigated.
Senator Houk is much pleased
with the answers received in re-
ply to his correspondent and stat
ed today that he thought steps
would be inaugurated at once,
tending to put an end to the po-
litical activity of federal Office
holders in Tennessee.

NO FOOLISHNESS
WITH SALARIES
MANDAMUs NOT WANTED
Governors Official Family is Not
Willing for Such Action as
They Would Lose Largely

Nashville. May Ia" What has
become OF the madamus proceedings
which Hooper ct al, were about to
begin against the state treasurer and
state comptroller to make them pay
out money to the d4eTSdt depart
ments 2" is question tnat has been
asked extensively N Nashville for
the past few days, xEe answer, ac-
cording to reliable authority, in that
several members of the governors
official family are loathe to have
their money collected for them by
madamus proceedings, as it would
mean a considerable loss to them.
The effort to mandamus is based
upon status, which fix the salaries
and maintenance of certain institu-
tions. Upon an investigation of
these statues, it developed that GER
tain members of the governors Of
fcial family are drawing more money
under the biennial appropriation bill
than they would draw accord
ing to the statues. Hence their re-
luctance to have the mandamus pro-
ceedings started. For instance, the
statues provide for a salary of 81 400
a year for the governors private
secretary, while under the biennial
appropriation bill that official has
been carried at salary of s., 500,
The statute fixes the salary of the
superintendent of the capitol at 5000
a year, and it has been carried for
some time in the biennial appropria-
ton bill at 1900 year. 1t is also
a well-known fact that the govern
or's salary is fixed by statute at $4,-
900 year, but the bienniel appro-
priation bill carries an appropriation
bill carries an appropriation of $3,-
500 year for the maintenance of
the governors mansion.
1t is said that there are many 9th
srs of the governor administration
who would also lose heavily by rely
ng upon the statutes rather than on
he biennial appropriation bill, and
hat this fact has delayed the manda-
nus proceedings, which may be
lbandoned altogether. In confrma-
ion of The Times special from
Nashville a few days ago, stating
hat such mandamus proceedings
lad been agreed upon, Congressman
,am Sells, who was in the confer
nee, after leaving Nashville and ar
living at his home in Johnson City,
ave out an interview stating that
uch mandamus proceedings would
'e instituted, and that legal counsel
lad been retained. The threats to
nandamus the two fiscal officers of
he state and failure to back up the
luff have caused a great deal of
omment here, and the statement is
penly made that the appointees Of
he governors administration, who
yould lose by such proceedings, are
reventing the Institution of any
lch proceedings.
