 Tintown, Held to Answer On Charge of Stealing Calf

As a result directly. of the replevin suit which was heard in Judge George R. Smiths court in Lowell the first part of the week. Carlos Allen has been arrested and bound over to the superior court on the charge of farce. ny The charge against Allen alleges that he stole a red heifer calf with peculiar markings around the eyes from Matt Keaton, a resident of Me Neal
 The present charge, on which Allen was held to the superior court, was made in the justice court of R. S Maclay, in Douglas Bruce Stephen. son, assistant county attorney, ap. peared for the prosecution and Judge J. D. Taylor apeared for Allen
 The case of the red heifer calf has attracted considerable attention in the district during the past week Keaton originally brought the suit Of replevin in one of the Douglas courts to secure possession of the calf. Al len had the case transferred to the justice court Of Judge George R Smith on a change of venue.
 Allen asked that the case be tried by jury The jury, after listening tC the evidence in the case, desired tC see the calf Accordingly the mem bers of the panel were taken to tho place where the calf was and trieC out a Solomon-like mode of proceed ure in the matter Two cows wer, brought into the pen with the cal but the latter refused to acknowledg, l either as its mother-complCt ig noring both
 The defendant in the criminal act ion is one of the best known resident of the district He is a well-to-d, merchant of Tintown and has an ex cellent reputation throughout the sec tion.

 In the city according to passen- gers in Bisbee from Douglas. many small buildings were unroofed. Signs were blown down. Windows were smashed and other damage amounting to hundreds of dollars was accom- plished in a very short space of time.
 The Douglas Improvement Compa- ny, which furnishes the power and light for the city, was forced to close down while linemen went out and thraightened out mony tangles of wire in the streets. Several business hous. es in Douglas using power, were forced to close during that period.

Street Car Ventilation

At this time of the year the question
Of the ventilation of street cars Is Sc
rlously important, and the public utili-
ties commission should insure the OBJ
SerVance by the local traction COM
panies of the rules of health. On prac-
ticaily every day of winter the win
lows of the cars are closed tightly. and
the ventilation is virtually contin-
cent on the occasional opening and
closing of the forward DOORS In the
old-faShioned type of cars the tram
som ventilators can be manipulated by
the conductors, but unfortunately they
are not as Il rule intelligently man
aged or are subject to the whims of
passengers who object to fresh air in
the mistaken belief that it is danger
Gus to health. In the new type of cars,
especially those with the middle en-
trance, the ventilation is normally
poor. \ center entrance car is sup
posed to have special ventilating ap-
Daratus, but the air vents are obvious
ly inadequate when the car is filed be-
yond seating capacity. Many of these
cars carry 100 passengers each, and
the air space then is altogether in
sufficient. 1t is fair to assume that
samples of the air taken for bacteri-
conditions in the crowded cars as to
compel the health authorities of the
city to act promptly. At this time
when diseases of the respiratory Or
gans are prevalent this matter of street
car ventilation is of the utmost con-
sequence to the public health.

Advertising for officials.
From the St. Joseph Gazette.

From the st. Joseph Gazette.
Thorough satisfaction has resulted
from the undertaking of the election
commission of Chicago to fill poiiti-
cal position by advertising for an OFF,
cial. The want advertisement" de-
scribed the qualifications required In
applicants, and as a consequence only
that class OF men asked for the place.
The commission was therefore enabled
to select from a goodly number of men
well fitted for the work instead of
being besieged chiefly by eager politi-
cal hangerson, few of whom might
have any real ability to perform the
duties of the position. Advertising pays
the public, as it returns constant
pr fit to the individual who employs
this means of advancing his interests.
The federal government long ago
learned this truth, and it now publishes
formal notice whenever 1t needs a new
civil service employe, the requirements
of the work being so definitely stated
as to have an appeal for all able to
meet the requirements of the position.
The examination then Sits the best

This Congress and the Next.

The threat of an extra session of the
new Congress should not, and probably
will not, shape matters In this Con-
gress- An extra session is not desira-
Bile. but there might be worse things
In considering the situation Let us not
lose sight of tho November result at
the polls. The democracy was badly
worsted. A distinct swing back toward
republican control was registered. A
halt was called on the democratic pro-
gram, and a suggestion made as to the
future.
In the light of this fact should this
Congress during the remainder Of its
existence do more than transact rou-
tine business-that is, appropriate the
money necessary for supporting the
government for the next fiscal year:
That much is charged upon 1t by tn.
Constitution.
And included In that duty Is Of course

army and navy revealed az necessary
by the confessions Of experts In both
of those departments of the govern
ment's service, The war has been an
eye-opener for us. We see our martial
establishment in a new light; and 1t
looks appaIlingly and pitifully def
cient. That It should be strengthened
materially, and as soon as possible, Is
a perfectly patent fact.
For all the rest. why haste? The
Philippine question can, and should
wait. Conservation is not calling with
trumpet tones. Rural credits are IN
part provided for under the new cur
rency law. And there Is very mucn
more to the merchant marine question
than the purchase of few foreign
ships. desirable as that may be.
Let the new Congress deal with those
and other questions. 1t represents an
expression of public sentiment two
years later than that represented by
the present Congress.
If the President thinks early action
he can summon the new Con-
gress and get it. Otherwise. December
will be early enough: and the business
world would welcome such a decision
An extra session in the spring would
interfere with the Presidents program
as to the formal opening of the Pana-
ma canal. And that would be regret
table. But those exercises, unfortu-
nately, will be robbed of much of the
and impressiveness origi-
nally planned. Attention will still be
fixed on the war. What in time OF
world peace would have been of world
interest and significance will be partly
obscured by the battle clouds of Eu-
rope.
There may not be an extra session
Of the new Congress; but it would be
a mistake for the present Congress, in
an effort to make one unnecessary, to
slight any of its pressing work by at
tempting too much work.
