MARTIN ON CONGRESS
AND ON UNCLE JOE
Representative Martin Gives His
Views on Present Political Situa-
tiOn at Washington

Hot Springs, S. d., Special
Congressman Martin stopped over
a day at his ranch near here while
on his way to Washington from
the conference of stalwart republi-
cans at Huron. Regarding that
meeting he said:
1T was my view from the
beginning that no ticket should be
endorsed at Huron, and | think
this is pretty generally known
ever the state. Now that we have
a primary law, l think it should
be observed in method and spirit. "
When questioned regarding his
probable candidacy to succeed him
self in congress he said:
If | shall be candidate forre..
nomination to congress-. which now
seems probable, this will be
brought about by nominating
petition as contemplated by the
primary, and in due course l will
expect to announce to the people
my position upon the public
questions before the country at
this time"
Questioned regarding affairs at
Washington, Mr.. Martin said:
Congress is getting down to
business in an effort to shape the
Roosevelt Taft policies into law.
The presidents recent message on
amending the railway rate law, the
regulation of interstate corpora
tions and on conservation are in
some respects an advance over the
recommendations of his predeces-
sor, and outline the purposes of
the administration on these i'm
portant subjects.
1T is the presidents purpose
that several of those policies shall
be threshed into constructive law
at the present session, and a ma
jority of congress are of the same
mind. Railway rate amendments,
postal savings bank legislation and
conservation amendments are likely
to receive attention in about the
order named.
1.-The control of the large inter-
state corporations either by fed
eral incorporation or federal
license, will also be thoroughly
considered at this time but the
subject is so vast and far-reaching
that it may not be possible to work
out definite plan before adjourn
ment in May or June"
Mr.. Martin spoke kindly of
Speaker Cannon as "an honest
militant, profane patriot" but
with emphasis declared that Can
non is an impossibility SO far as
the next speakership is-concerned.
This is recognized in Washing
ton as elsewhere said he.

progressive faction at Huron last
Thursday evening brought out the
lines of the coming conflict more
clearly. Dick Richards was there
and over, as was Basford and Sem
and DIR. Lavery. The latter presid-
ed at the meeting. Richards has
finally prevailed on the faction to
take up some of his pet theories
and will be part of that faction

meeting has been called to meet at
Huron on the oath of this month,
when the progressives will draw
their plans for the year, and Incl

we claim that they were not neces-
sary. 1t is costing the state too
much, under present conditions,
for administration purposes.
The Review is for the nomina-
tion of Mr.. Elrod and those who
cooperate with him in the endorse
ment of stalwartism as promul-
gated from the conference at
Huron.

One would Judge from the tone
of the insurgent organs through
out the state that they would have
been better satisfied if the stalwarts
had named a ticket in their con-
ference at Huron few days ago.
1t would have borne out the in
surgent assertion that a scrap was
on in the stalwart ranks, and they
don't like the setback.

POISONED CREEK
DeadwOOd Man Tells WashingtOnians
Something About Mining Process

/
The following from the Wash
ington Post of last Wednesday will
be of much interest to those who
are unacquainted with the work
ings of mines, but are proud of
the fact that South Dakota has
within it's confines the richest min
eral area in the world:
South Dakota has creek that
for 80 miles is deadly poison .
said Col. j. A. George, of Dead
wood, at the Raleigh last night.
I'VE produce out there nearly
100000, in gold every year.
Most of it is saved by free milling
and the cyanide process, and it is
this latter that has caused the
waters of the creek to become
poisonous. BY the free milling pro-
cess from IS to 20 per cent of the
gold is saved, while by the cyanide
process from IS to 80 per cent can
be saved, and then by taking up
the cyanide solution and running
it through pipes several miles an
additional saving is had. A descrip-
tion of the Homestake mills, some
3 miles above Deadwood, explains
the whole system of treating the
ore. This mill treats about 5000
tons of ore each day. The ore is
run through the stamps and then
over quicksilver and finally through
a solution of cyanide of potassium
and zinc shavings, but not all the
gold is saved by the cyanide, and
the Homestake has laid pipes to
Deadwood, more than 3 miles
away.
After the final treatment of the
ore the cyanide is turned loose in
to Whitewood Creek. The waters
of this creek from mile and a
half above Deadwood to it's mouth
are, therefore, made unsafe for
use. 1t would seem at first that
this is a distinct disadvantage to
the country bordering the creek,
but it has its advantages. The creek
is the only outlet we have for oul
, sewerage, and the cyanide neuter-
alizes this sewerage and makes il
healthy for the people of Dead.
wood and other towns along the
creek. OF course, the farms on this
creek have been damaged by this
cyanide in the time of floods, be-
cause where the water runs over
the land the vegetation is killed,
but the Homestake mine long age
adopted plan that whenever a
farm is damaged the owner is com.
pensated. In this way the mine
owners have removed cause for OBJ
lection on the part of the farmers,
for as the Homestake employs a
great many people, the farmers

City employment
BUREAU MEETING
4 [0NG.FELT WANT
Unique Newark Office More Sue
cessfnl Than Those in
Larger Cities.
The municipal employment bureau,

THE municipal employment bureau,
established by the city in November of
last year, has been Unusually success
full ever since the first week of its or
ganiaation,g and has rapidly outgrown
the quarters assigned to it on the
fourth floor OF the City Hall. In many
respects the local bureau is unique and
for a department that has SO few clerks
available and SO little money behind 1t
the ecord made by the office is truly
remarkable.
City Clerk James F. Connolly had the
idea in mind a long time before he was
able to put 1t into operation, and, al
though he met with little encourage
ment, he was finally successful in get
ting small quarters adjoining the bu-
re8u of statistical research, and before
the new department had been in opera
tion a month it had received the hearty
Enforcement of even those who had at
first belittled the proposition.
The Newark bureau is probably the
only one In the country that is run
without a State law to Justify its ex-
i~stence, and, although there are numer-
BUS municipal employment bureaus
throughout the country, they are all
provided for by liberal State laws and
appropriations. Despite this great ad-
vantage, however, the local bureau has
q better record than can be shown by
any other city bureau in proportion to
the size of the city.
Cost Per Capita Less.
In Chicago, for instance, where the
employment bureau conducted by the
city is run on q very elaborate scale,
the cost per capita for finding positions
for applicants is IS cents. In Newark
the per capita cost Is SO cents, and the
number of permanent positions secured
Is greater in proportion than in Chicago
or Boston, in which latter city the bu-
reau is located in a separate building
has a corps of about twenty clerks.
OF course, during the eight months of
It's operation City Clerk Connolly has
gained some valuable experience In the
conduct OF a municipal employment bu-
reau, chief among the improved meth
dds being the manner of obtaining an
outlet for the people who file applica-
tons for work. In the early days OF
the bureau 1t was the custom to adver-
tise for positions, and the churches
were enlisted in the work of appealing
70 the employers Of the city. This
worked all right to a certain extent, but
II was soon found hat this method of
securing the help OF employers was not
likely to be broad enough or inclined
70 keep pace with the demands of the
bureau.
Mr.. Connolly then took one of his
men and a him make a systematic
tour Of the large stores, offices and
factories and build up a waiting list
for the use of the bureau. Since this
plan Of direct solicitation has been in
operation the results have been much
more satisfactory. and people have
been placed almost as soon as their
applications could be looked up, for the
city will not recommend yon who
y moi all that the most exacting en-

abled many Of the rest to find enough
to keep them busy for the greater part
of the time.
Since its inception the bureau has
found places for $50 employees of both
sexes, and all these have been perma-
nent positions. Several hundred more
have been Supplied with temporary en-
pioyment, so that the bureaus average
of $50 a month is being easily main
tanned.
In view of the limited space in which
the bureau has to operate and the
comparatively small force of clerks
available for the work, 1t is really SUR
prising how much is being accom-
plished. To give some idea of the
volume of work handled it is interest
ing to learn that during the first six
weeks of it's operation the bureau re-
ceived over zoo applications for posi-
tions, and that was at a time when
only men were being provided for.
Since the action of the Common Coun-
ell in March of the present year, when
1t was decided to include women in
the work of the bureau. the number
of applications has steadily increased
each week as the work of the depart
ment becomes better known.
Service Is Free.
The services of the bureau are given
free to both employee n employer,
there being no fees of any kind ASSOC
ciated with the work. Its affairs are
conducted without undue publicity, the
policy being to make the service ac-
ceptable in every way, so that em-
ployers and the unemployed may freely
avail themselves of all the oppor-
tunities and advantages of an exchange
without encountering any of the draw
backs that sometimes arise in agency
transactions.
Applications are received only by
mai and are always given the earliest
and most thorough attention, the re-
suit being that positions are frequently
suggested to the applicant by return
mail. Mr.. Connolly intends to go be-
fore the next Legislature and try to
have a bill passed thai will provide FOR
bureaus Of this kind. and, as the sue
