To complete his nights work he
visited the Crystal Laundry, 1875 West
Cary street, and robbed drawer OF
$40 In money and SIS in stamps.
This burglar has been a plague to
liquor dealers around Broad and Sew

EDITORIAL COMMENTS
ON BALLINGER CASE
Opinion Divided as to Whether or Not He Was Martyr
But General Agreement as to His Being
Milestone About Taft's Neck

NEW YORK, March S.--The fol-
lowing is resume of New York edi-
torial opinion with reference to the
resignation of Secretary Richard A.
Baliinger from the cabinet:
Worid.-There has not been at any
time a question that the scandal de-
stroyed MIR. Ballinger's usefulness and
made his presence in the cabinet an
Unnecessary drag upon the admins
tration. 1t would have been wiser
to have recognized this fact long
ago.
Tribune.--If Mr.. Fisher receives the
commentator of Mr.. Ballfnger's crit
les for doing in office exactly what
Mr.. Ballinger did, the whole Ballinger
conspiracy will be completely exposed
as one of personal persecution.
Sun.--The American people have
not lost their love OF fair play or
parted with their sense OF decency.
We are sure they will agree with the
President that Richard A. Ballinger
has been 1.-The object of one OF the
most INSCRIPTIONS conspiractes for
the defamation of character that his-
tory can show"
Times.-we think It is well for the
President and for the success of his
administration that Secretary Balm
ger has resigned.
Press--All true friends OF the adj
ministration must rejoice at the
change for the better.
American.-Let charity say what Ii
will of MIR. Ballinger, he belongs. in
deed and temper, To day that has
passed. He has been a milestone upon
the neck of the Taft administration.
His retirement in the face of the
onooming Congress with its stern
threat OF impeachment. is thorough
ly discreet.
