THE NEXT HOUSE.

With talk of an extra session, at
tention is now given to what is al
ready known as the Powerful Five
in the next House of Representatives.
These five men who are attracting so
much attention just now are Represen-
tative Schall of Minnesota, progress
sive; Representative Martin of
Louisiana, who used to be Democrat
but was elected on a progressive-pro.
tectionist ticket; Representative Ran.
dali of California, the only prohibi
Zionist in Congress; Representative
London of New York, Socialist, and
Representatives Fuller of Mass.
an independent.
Neither Democrats nor Republicans
will have a majority, or 218 votes in
the new House, enough to elect as
speaker-hence these five men are
commanding favors because with then
rests the organization Of the next
House, and the fate of many proposed
changes in the conduct of it's business
For this reason, it is pointed out
the next Congress will be one of the
most interesting in the history of the
national legislature.

MAY BUY MONTICELLO.

The United States may purchase
Monticello, the home of Thomas JEFF
ferson. if the Congressional Committee
on public buildings and grounds, who
made a trip during the past week
to inspect the home, recommends it.
1t Is claimed that Monticello, which
is situated at Charlottesville. is supe-
rior in beauty to Mount Vernon. Built
on the top Of a mountain, classic in
design, it is said that it could hardly
be reproduced today at any cost. The
dome surmounting the house is mod
eled after the ancient temple of Yes.
ia. Jefferson was his own architect,
and the house was built by expert
workmen, brought from France. Many
priceless relics of Jefferson's time,
some of his own manufacture, are in.
cluded in the purchase price.

VETERANS TO BE APPOINTED AS
CHAPLAINS.

A proviso in the National Defense
Bill of last June stating "That in the
appointment of chaplains in the Regu-
lar Army, preference and priority
shall be given to applicant veterans,
if otherwise duly qualified, and who
shall not have passed the age Of Al
years at the time of application, who
have rendered honorable service in
the army of the United States or who
have been honorably discharged from
such army"-threatens to upset the
traditional policy of the War Depart
ment in distributing the chaplaincies
amongst the various denominations.
This provision was originally intend
ed to cover the case of one man who
was a veteran and anxious to enter
the service, but has been interpreted
by the Judge Advocate General of the
Army to mean that preference must
be given to all veterans, irrespective
of the denomination to which they
belong.
Unless this statute is repealed by
the present Congress the Catholic
Church may not receive her quota
of the new chaplaincies. Already eight
candidates, who are clergymen Of va
rious denominations and veterans,
have applied for the positions.
The Federal Council of Churches
in America, which practically includes
all the Protestant denominations, has
addressed letter to the Committee
on Military Affairs of the House OF
Representatives, asking that this pro
viso be eliminated from the National
Defense Bill. Secretary of War Baker
in communication to member Of
the committee, asks the repeal of this
clause, and Rev. l.. j. O'HOrn, esp.
who represents the Catholic Hierarchy

lains, interviewed personally ever!

out the injustice of depriving fort!
per cent of the enlisted men who ar,

tee will see their way to rectify thi
mistake,

The directors of the Botanical Gar

a monument to the late distinguished
botanist, Father Urban Faurie, PPM.
Father Faurie came to Japan as mis-
sionary in 1873. He developed great
interest in botany, and later travelled
alone, over the greater part of the
country making rare collections. He
slept under a tree or crag, and
neither wild savages nor poisonous
snakes had terrors for him, when

and implements Of industry, in
Guiding Americas share of these ne.

The war flame is indeed burning up

necessities.
Lloyd Georges speech, which was
really a speech in favor of peace, said:
''The main facts are plain. The
harvests of the United States and
Canada are failures and the Argen-
tine promises badly. Russia is UNI
available, and our own harvest is
poor, while only three-eighths of
the normal winter sowing has taken
place, owing to bad weather. Under
these circumstances the late Gov
eminent decided to appoint a food
controller"
If the nations go on with their fight
ing, they must fight on American food.
If they can't get Americas food, they
can't fight.
And if we continue sending them
American food to keep up their fight
ing, we shall not only have bread at
twenty-five cents loaf here in the
United States and other foods proper
tionately high-but we shall not have
enough for our own country.
England wants peace, Germany
wants peace-they can have it if they
will.

wants and demands peace.

last week, congratulations from the
Holy Father, Pope Benedict XIV, on the
recent peace move of the American
government. The message was con-
veyed through the Spanish Ambass-

papal legation at Washington has no
diplomatic status.
In response to the request of Presi-
dent Wilson. the Spanish Ambassador
later in the day cabled his govern
ment to convey the thanks of Pres
ddent Wilson to the Pope.
