ATLANTA SLATED FOR
100000 POSTOFFICE
New Building viii Be Erected
Near Terminal Station,
Says Report
d. RALPH sMITH.

WASHINGTON, May 7.-Atlapta is
marked for a new postoffice building. II
the estimates of the postoffiee depart
ment and Supervising Architect Taylor
of the. treasury department are regarded
by congress. 100000 will he provided
for the new structure, and it will be
erected on site in the vicinity of the
Terminal station.
CONGRESSMAN Howard conferred with
Mr.. Taylor at length this morning about
the new building and it is well under
stood between them that the architects
office is to indorse the request of the
'postoffice department for the new build
ing.
Mr.. Howard will not introduce his bill
at this session in view of the economy
program of the departments but plans to
get the 100000 at the next session OF
congress. In the meantime he will be
content with an appropriation of $4,000
which will be used by the architect to
complete the fourth floor of the present
postoffice building.
There is still in the treasury to the
credit of the Atlanta postoffice the sum
of $4,000 and this is now available. With
get in the urgent deficiency appropria-
ton bill there viii he available funds
enough to make the fourth floor of the
present building useful.
NEED RECOGNIZED.
1t has been demonstrated to the salts
faction of the postoffice department that
the Atlanta postoffice building is already
Inadequate to the needs OF the service"
said Congressman Howard today after
his interview with Architect Taylor. y
Officials OF the department of justice
have conferred with postoffice officials
and it has been decided TO convert At
lanta's postoffice into an administra-
ton building. to be used Jointly by the
federal courts and the internal revenue
collectors. the civil service agents and
other administration offices in Atlanta.
MORE DETAILS.
The new bur ding will be devoted en-
tirely to the uses of the postoffice's de-
partment. II will be situated in the vi
cinity of the Terminal station and will
be large enough to meet the require
ments for the next 20 years. Since the
completion of the building now occupied
Jointly by the postoffice department and
the federal courts the postal receipts of
Atlanta have grown by leaps and bounds.
The present quarters have become
crowded, and il is recognized that the
completion OF the fourth floor will not
furnish rooms sufficient to Accommodate
the postofice. 1t will AFFORD only tenn
porary relief
II have discussed with house leaders
the ACCESSIBILITY OF a 100000 appropria-
ton at this session of congress for a
new postoffice at Atlanta, and have decid-
ed IL wiser to delay the introduction of
the bill until next session. The Democrats
are pledged to economy at this session,
and il has been determined TO have no
public building bill. 1t might jeopardize
the ultimate success of the undertaking
TO press a separate bill at the session,
and as nothing viii be lost by delaying
until a public building iss authorized 1
will not press the matter at this time"

all No one hates me like / hate myself
sometimes. No one curses me like curse
myself inwardly at times. No one de-
spitefully uses me as l do myself at
times. and yet / do not have any diff
Guilty in loving myself. 1t would not be
hard to give myself the undercoat IL /
had taken my overcoat, and 1 should
think myself very cruel If / wanted to
borrow something from myself. and my
self would not lend it to me.
This sounds foolish as we look at 1t
in this way, and yet there isn't anything
foolish about it, We must understand
that there is no difference between the
Jew and the Greek, the same Lord is
over all, is rich with all that call upon
Him. God is no respecter of persons.
1Ae externalities which distinguish us
one from another are not seen by God.
He is busy looking at the internalities.
and in essence He sees that we are all
alike. When Christ calls upon you there
fore to love your neighbor as yourself
He challenges you to look upon your
neighbor through Gods eyes, then the
practice of these principles which He has
proposed is easier; at least, we can see
the reason for them.
This is eminently practical, and illus
trates the truth about the rich man and
Lazarus which we studied last week The
rich mans sin consisted in that he had
abundance to supply the needs of Laza-
rus, and yet allowed him to starve to
death. If the rich man had loved Laza-
rus as himself, do you think he would
have allowed him to lie there hungry
and helpless on the outside, while he
Toasted on fairness on the inside? If you
love your neighbor as yourself are you
going to sue him at law for his coat?
Are you going to gossip about him? Are
you going to allow him to go hungry
and i'll clad? Are you going to allow
him to be housed in a hole which I'M
pairs his health and impairs his earning
power? Are you going to keep back from
him the knowledge of Jesus, which alone
can save him? Are you going to allow
him to starve?
Now 1 admit that nothing but an
enormous motive power will be required
to carry out these ideas and make us
live the life that is measured by the
golden rule. There is but one motive
power and that is the love of Christ
which is shed abroad in our hearts
through the Holy Ghost. which is given
us. Love, and love which is broad as
myself, will fulfill every law.
On the last night of His life upon
earth, Jesus made His command to love
even stronger yet. In the childhood of
the CHuICH ulSlOAy luO NOiihhohu A1u
been: Thou shalt love thy neighbor and
hate thine enemy" Jesus has made. it
broader and deeper and higher. and said
that thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy
self; but on that night He made 1t
stronger still. "As 1 have loved you, We
must also love one another" In His life
love fulfilled all the low; He loved His
neighbor as Himself, His love for His
neighhor demanded nothing less than the
sacrifice of His own life, and this He
gladly did. To love as He did, means
that we should put no value on any
thing that we possess, even life itself,
except in the relationship to the kingdom
of God.

Keep the Balance Up

II has been truthfuIIy said that anN
disturbance of the even balance of
health causes serious trouble. No
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to
lose appetite, or to get tired easily
the least imprudence brings on sick
ness, weakness, or debility. The sys-
tenn needs a tonic, Graves it, and
should not be denied it; and the best
tonic of which we have any knowledge
is Hoods Sarsaparilla. What this med
icine has done in keeping healthy peo-
pie healthy, in keeping up the even
balance of health, gives it the same
distinction as a preventive that 1t en-
joys as a cure. It's early use has H.
Illustrated the wisdom of the old saying
that stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite,i strength and en-
dufance. OF

Ire Emissaries

That is an imposing self-invited gang which went from Chicago to Baltimore to split the national demo- cratic party wide open in the hope of securing some cast-off material for the building up of MT. Roosevelts proposed new party,-"Our Frank" Heney, Little Ben, the boys judge of Denver, both renegade democrats and now renegade republicans. The third member of this immortal trio which set out on the widest of wild goose chases is Charles R. Crane of Chi cago.
 It may be said that Heney is far the ablest one of the lot Thus Ari- zonians will be able to form some con- ception of the others. Nature made 8 joke of Lindsey and he has since been regarded everywhere as one ex- cept in the circles of hair brained reformers who take themselves and everybody and everything seriously.
 UT crane little less Is known, though his animosity to the Taft ad- ministration may be easily traced But for very little thing he would have been among it's most ardent SUD- porters.
 Some three years ago Crane, under our despicable system which places men in responsible diplomatic posi- tons for which they have no other qualifications than wealth or a politi- cal pull was appointed minister to China where an extremely delicate situation involving Russia, Japan Germany and Great Britain existed
 Crane left Washington for Pekir via Chicago and San Francisco. His

course was marked by sWath Of conversation with reporters to whom he imparted the information that he would be an unpleasant surprise to the representatives of the other great powers.
 He was overtaken at San Francisco by a wire from Secretary Knox. He returned to Washington and the things that the secretary said to him in dismissing him from the service made him a ready volunteer in any movement to beat Taft.
 We fancy as big man as MT Bryan engaged in serious negotiations with Heney, Little Ben and Crane for the realgnment of American po- litical parties.

Finances and Markets
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

NEW YORK, June 26.-The devel- opments of primary importance in to- days dull but strong stock market included the long expected price ad- vance in certain finished articles of steel and iron by several independent manufacturers, and another $2 000 900 gold export to Paris. Interest in the action of the steel makers is based largely on the fact that higher prices seemed to be justified by trade con ditions. Whether United States Steel intends to follow the lead of it's com petitorS is not known.
 The market seemed to detach itself from political considerations. Gains of a point in many active issues were made at the opening, while some spc- -Clalties moved to new high records, especially American Tobacco. Later the electrical issues and a few rail- roads were taken up with further inn prOVements. Towards the close Steel strengthened, imparting a strong tone to the entire list at the close. Bonds former; total sales, pavalue $2,O73,- 000. Governments unchanged on call
