The 1stlowing Is a prhe farm re?
port made by J. W< FtUflgfl for the
Southern Rurallst:
I have had most exp? rlence and
best lurk raising mules a.^d will write
of what 1 ha\e don,' with one mare.
Thirteen years ago I traded a HUN
horse for a four-year-old mare and
went to raising mules. She has rais?
ed ten mules and one horse volt. It
being a mare, making eleven head In
all. I bred her neon after I traded
for her and she has missed raising I
volt only one year slnee. I sold the
first f r ii'.o.oo at six years old; the
second, a yearling past, for $7 0.00;
the third died, when altered, worth
$75.00. The next pair 1 sold at three
and four past for $500.0..
1 have the other six head, the mare
five years old. worth $150.00. four
year old mule worth $200.00; one
pair two and three year-old worth
$100.00. The little colt, three weeks
old .worth $40.00.
I am a farmer and was renting
land when I trailed for this mare .but
I bought me a small place, you might
say without a house on It. and owed
$400.00 on the land; looked like it
would always take the crop to live
on; but In due time Old Maud rais?
ed that $400.00 pair of mules and
paid our place out and we took the
$150.00 mule and built us a house.
She worked In every crop since I
owned her. Had It not been for those
mules I don't see how I would have
paid that little place out.
Now I have sold and bought a larg?
er place. I owe $1,100.00 on it; I
want to see what ?dd Maud and the
young mare can do In helping me
out. I have five mules to begin with.
Here are what all of the coits are
worth. I think I have put a reason?
able price on the ones I now have.
The tlrst four sold
First.$150.00
Second. 75.00
Third?died?worth .$75.00
Fourth and fifth one pair.. .. 400.00

?"It cured me," or "It saved the

you hear every day about Chamber?

Introduced. No other medicine in use
for diarrhoea or bowel complaints has
received such general approval. The

Is that It cures. Sold by W. W. Slbert.

ix<; CAMPAIGN.
? I intended to km smno rankes!"
exclaimed Beere tary Ballinger with b
snrdontc smile when he was on the
witness-stand before the Congress?
ional Investigating Committee. The
snakes" ur?< the men in his depart?
ment Who have failed to "stand by
him." When Olavis unearthed th
Cunningham olnlntfi Glovli wns
promptly discharged. When Klrby
t.dd the farts In regard to the pre
p n ation of the Infi letter of Vindi?
kation. Klrby was discharged. Now
Mr. Ball Inger has set abOUt the work
Oi driving from the Government ser?
vice thOM wh?> gave testimony that
was unfavorable to him. He has sum?
marily discharged Horace T. Jones.
Jones was the special agent of the
Land Office wto collected consider?
able evidence tending to prove the
fraudulent character of the Cunning?
ham coal-land claims. He was sum?
moned by the investigating committ?
ee, was compelled to testify, and,
though every effort was make to
brenn" down his testimony, it stood
the test. This testimony Involved
Ballinger and his friends. Baliinger
orders the dismissal of Jones.
The Director of the Reclamation
Service and the Chief Engineer dis?
agreed with Mr. Ballinger on many
points. They questioned the truth
of some of his statements. It is un?
derstood that both officials will be re?
moved.
But the Ballinger snake-killing
campaign by no means ends with
those he regards as his active 'ene?
mies." It extends to officials who re?
fused to aid In his defense. Prof.
Joseph A. Holmes is regarded as the
ablest expert In certain features of
mining and mine-rescue work in this
country. Congress created a Bureau
of Mines in order to extend the not?
able work In which Professor Holmes
has been engaged for several years,
and no other man was thought of for
the first chief of this bureau. Holmes
takes no interest whatever in polities.
He refused to take sides or to be
mixed up In any way with the Bal
linger affair. He spent his time In
attending strictly to business. Holmes
was the co-worker of Secretary Gar
field and Glfford Plnchot In the pre?
vious administration. But he failed
to rush to the rescue of Ballinger, and
the Secretary of the Interior is do?
ing everything in his power to hu?
miliate Dr. Holmes and appoint an
l chief of the Bureau of
Min. a
lllnger Is sorely taxing the
of the American people. His
>n the witness stand and his
course since that time show clearly
what manner of man he is.
It Is not the Joneses and the Glav
ises of this administration who de?
serve removal, but the Ball Ingers,
the Dennetts and all the kit and crew
of servile underlings who sneeze ev?
ery time the Secretary takes snuff.
In spite of all the "vindication" that
whitewashing committees can fur?
nish. In spite of all the letters of "ex?
oneration" that friendly attorneys
Can draft and the President sign, the
bond Of Balllnger himself Is demand?
ed by the p. ,,pie of the United States
and Mr. Taft will bo forced to recog?
nize that demand, or still further
SfSnhCW and disorganize his party.?

Forecasting The Xext CongroM.
From present Indication! the next
I
national house of representatives will
be Democratic. The signs point un
mlstakably In this direction. But the
majority by which the Democrat! will
i ontrol the popular sssembly is quite
another thing.
If the table Which has recently been
completed by some of the more en
thuslastlce propheti is verified by re?
sults, the Democrat! will carry 221
districts and the Republican! 1GG dis
trlctl in the fall eleeeions, giving the
former an emphatic majority with
which to organize the next house and
to choose the next speaker.
According to this forecast the
Democratic congressmen will he dis?
tributed as follows: Alabama 9,
Arkansas 7, California 3, Colorado 3,
Conneticut 1, Deleware 1, Florida 3,
Georgia 11. Idaho 1. Illinois 10, In?
diana 8, Iowa 3, Kansas 2, Kentucky
9, Louisiana 7, Maine 4, Maryland 4,
Massachusetts 6, Miehgan 2, Minne?
sota 3, Mississippi 8, Missouri 14.
Montana 1, Nebraska 3, Nevada 1,
Xew Jersey 5, New York 19, North
Carolina 9, Ohio 9, Oklahoma 4,
Oregon 2, Pennsylvania 7, Rhode
Island 1, South Carolina 7, South Da?
kota 1, Tennesseee 8, Texas 1G, Vir?
ginia 9, West Virginia 2, Wisconsin 3.
Total 224.
The Republican! w ill be apport?
ioned in the following manner: Cal?
ifornia 5, Connecticut 4, IlllnlOS 15,
Indiana 5, Iowa 8, Kansas G, Ken?
tucky 2, Maryland 2, Massachusetts*
8, Michigan 10, Minnesota G, Mis?

Oklahoma 1, South Dakota 1, Tenn?
essee 2, Utah 1, Vermont 2, Virginia
1, Washington 3, Wisconsin 7, Wy?
oming 1, Total 1G6.
Solid Democratic delegations are
given to thirteen states: Alabama, Ar?
kansas, Colorado, Delaware, Florida,
Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Maine,
Mississippi, Montana, South Carolina
and Texas.
Solid Republican delegations are
conceded to only seven states: New
Hampshire, North Dokato, Oregon,
Utah, Vermont, Washington and Wy?
oming.
New York's delegation will be di?
vided Into almost ecpual halves.
In view of the fact that in the pres?
ent house the Republicans have a
majority of 56, it will require some?
thing of an upheaval to give the
Democrats a majority of 58; but upon
such an outcome scores of enthusias?
tic Democrats are counting. Even
the opposition virtually concedes de?
feat.
With th senate Republican how?
ever, it will be impossible to effectu?
ate any Democratic legislation along
radical lines, but reform measures can
be passed by the house and responsi?
bility for defeating them can be put
upon the party in power.?Atlanta

Another Horace Mack.
Horace Mack, who has been em?
ployed as porter by DeLorme's Phar?
macy for the past eight years and
who also runs a public hack has been
very much annoyed and worried re?
cently by the fact that another negro
of the same name has been arrested
for various infractions of the law
and is under indictment for trial at
the next term of the Court of General
Sessions. Some people have jumped
at the conclusion that DeLorme's
Horace Mack has fallen into evil ways
and have asked him about being in?
dicted. This Horace wants everybody
to know that he is still working at
the same place and is in no wise con
nectod with the Horace Mack, who is
under Indictment.

?Mr. B. P. Kelley, Springfield, 111.,
writes: "A year ago I began to be
troubled with my kidneys and blad?
der, which grew worse until I be?
came alarmed at my condition. I suf?
fered also with dull heavy headaches
and the action of my bladder was an?
noying and painful. I read of Foley
Kidney lulls and after taking them a
lew weeks the headaches lieft me,
the action of my bladder was again
normal, and I was free of all distress."

Fumou* Church Reopened.
Mexico Record.
In tho reopening of the old Ense
nanesa Church on Callie de Donceles,
formerly Cordobanee, one of the rich- !
est and most valuable gems of art
work was restored to public enjoy- ?
ment.
This chur h \ as among the prop?
erty confiscated by the State at the
time of the constitutional reform
movemc nt and the separation of
chlurch from state in Mexi ro. it wan
later conditionally restored as a house
of Catholic worship ,and in 1 Sot con?
demned again by the government for
the purpose of enlarging the federal
district and palace of justice and civ?
il courts building. The church was
constructed about 175 years ago out
of funds donated by a wealthy Span?
ish countess and placed in charge of
the religious order that conducted
the Ensenanoza convent now used
by the federal courts.
In addition to the handsomely carv
I ed high altar, a rich piece of work
i in cedar overlaid with pure gold leaf
and reaching to the top of the nave, I
I are ten side altars, equally as hand- !
somely carved and also overlaid with '
Ine gold. Very little, comparatively, 1
of the wall space is left uncovered j
by these massive gilded furnishings, \
and this space is oil paintings, some j
of the rarest works of art of the kind
in Mexico City, Including one or two 1
genuine masters.
On account of the rare value of
those decorations, and their unique I
Character as the only church decora- '
tions of the kind in Mexico, Secretary i
of Finance Limantour some time ago
took steps to have the temple restor?
ed to the religious authorities, sue- j
ceeding in having the plans for en- j
larging the court buildings over that j
site. The keys were turned over to
the archbishop of Mexico who in turn
placed the church in care of Father
Francisco A h ares has had workmen
employed cleaning the altars and
paintings and otherwise renovating
the temple, and when it was opened
for service May 31 it formed perhaps
the richest and most pleasing church
interior in the republic.
