NEWS NOTES.

Reorganization OF the Department Of
Agriculture is foreshadowed in Secre-
tary Houston's first annual report pre-
scented to President Wilson. A plan to
be submitted to Congress in the fiscal
estimate for 1916 proposes TO carry out
the work Of the department in five Or
six main groups, such as research, State
relations, rural organization, forest serv-
ice weather and regulation. Such q
plan, Secretary Houston believes, will
promote coordination.
President Wilson's views on anti
trust Legislation are to be sought this
week, it is stated, by Congressional
leaders upon whom will fall the task
Of mapping out the antitrust program.
The feeling il growing according TO re-
ports, that the acts OF the present Con-
gress regarding trusts should affect only
the more obviously needed reforms.
Villa is holding the main body Of the
army at Sauz, thirty miles from Chihua-
hua, and is fortifying his telegraph and

possible attack. Army officials in Wash
ington regard the future work Of the
rebels as slow. with many reyerses and
victories in the proposed advance on
Mexico City.
Representative A. B, House, Of Ken
lucky, says the House postoffice Com
mittee is not considering the increase Of
interest ON individual postage savings
deposits, as reported, but contemplates
,exacting a larger rate cf interest from
the banks for the use Of such deposits.

Confidence in Garrett.

Some members Of the House Conn
mittee that investigated the charges OF
lobbying, il is reported from Washing
ton, want a more drastic report than
that which Chairman Garrett will make
in accordance with the viewso Of the ma
iority OF the committee. Statements
given 10 the Washington dispatches do
not indicate in detail the nature Of either
report. The friends OF Mr.. Garrett in
Tennessee are persuaded that he has
gone as far in the report to which he
agrees as the facts warrant.
Mr.. Garrett is a good Democrat and
She last man IN the world to be unduly
lenient towards lobbyists, or to condone
any improper influences that may have
been at work ia Washington. He il at
the same time man Of exceptionally
good sense and conservative judgment
and not likely to 90 toan unwarranted

1t seems that the part Of the report
relating to MulhalI and bis revelations
is what is causing the division Mulball

The lobby probe should 20 to the bot
tom and all corrupt practice about the
halls Of the national legislature should
be vigorously inquired into. While this
is all true the Banner is willing to youch,
as far as the meagre details OF the mat
ter will permit, that FINS Garrett has
gone the full length that the circum-
stances justify Nashville Banner.

President-Elect Wilson Finds the Sc
lection Is Work of Hardest
Kind.

Princeton, N. J.-President-elect Will
son Monday made clear that nobody
in the United States knew as yet who
was going to be in his cabinet or what
would be the program he would sug-
gest for the next congress. He de-
clared he had not offered a single cab
met portfolio to any one thus far and
had reached no conclusions as to plans
for the extra session.
Mr.. Wilson said that while he had
canvassed a variety of subjects and
had talked over many names with deni-
ocratic leaders he had not given an
intimation either as to his selections
or his course with respect to legisla-
ton. He indicated, however, that he
expected the extra session would not
be devoted exclusively to tariff max
ing, and said he would specify in a
special message some of the subjects
upon which he would like legislation
The president-elect admitted he was
finding the task of cabinet making diff
ficult He said he would delay an
nouncements until he could name his
entire sabinet.
