CONGRESS HELD READY
TO MAKE CITY A MODEL
Representative Tinkham Says All
Trouble Is Due to Sidetracking
D. C. Measures.
Advocates Civil Service Law for Cap
ital in Addressing Midcity Cit
izens' Association.

Congress is willing and anxious to do
everything for the District of Column
hia that viii make this city and its
laws the very best and models for
other capitals. Representative Tinkham
of Massachusetts, a member of the
House District committee. told the Mid
CITY Citizens Association last night at
its meeting at 1909 eth street north
west lie asserted, however. that the
trouble was due to the multiplicity of
measures which Congress must con-
slider, declaring that many times Dis
trict legislation has to he sidetracked
because of more important general
legislation.
Representative Tinkham spoke on
several of the measures which he had
in Congress and explained
them, including the bill for the insti-
tuition for feebleminded. the bill plac-
ing the District employees under the
civil Service and the bill which would
abolish the present practice of making
assessments for street improvements
and then delaying the improvements
for years. The law. he said. which
permits the Commissioners to collect

Hopes for Civil Service Law.

Representative Tinllham said that it
was with some surprise that he learned
during the course of the hearing on the
proposition to place the school admuiS-
tration of the District under the Commits
soners that the District mad no civil serv-
ice la He expressed the hope that be
fore the ending of the first session of the
Sixty fourth Congress the District would
have good, straightforward, model sci
entific civil service law in force. He de-
clared there could not be effective pub
lie service where the people employed in
il depended for their jobs on political pat
ronage. When there is a real public SerV-
ice patronage must have been eliminated.
Those now employed in the District gov
ernment he explained, not only would
retain their positions, but they would hoid
them with Il stronger grasp than ever be
fore. because they would be under the
civil service. He declared that under the
present order of things there was not a po-
Sitlon in he District that could not legally
be vacated at any moment. He said that
the law of apportionment which rules the
number OF appointments under the fedora.
civil service laws would not apply in the
District. but that all of the appointments
would be made from the District He also
predicted that free text books in the high
schools would become a fact at this ses-
sion or Congress.

ing vote Of thanks. ana all of his measures

Lessons In Movies

The movies have been added to
the teaching equipment of the Uni.
versity of South Dakota but the
subjects of all films used are edu-
cational and industrial. Any
school, commercial club, women's
clubs, town OF religious organiza-
ton can obtain films by writing to
Dean E. K. Eyerly who has charge
of the moving picture extension
work of the University of South
Dakota at Vermillion. It will be
necessary for any organization
which desires to use University
movies to pay the express charges
on the films and equipment from
the University to the town where
the organization is located and
back to the University again. All
the subjects of the movie films are
of an educational character and
deal with industrial and social sub
jects. Four separate films are re-
ceived each week by the University
and circuits can be arranged By
corresponding with Dean Eyerly.
AS a sample of the range of sub
jects the following list of films GOV.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
The High Cost Of Folly

John @. Wudel, a farmer living
near Beardsley had $14OO stolen
from his residence a week ago last
Sunday. A few days before he
went to Parkston and drew out the
money from the bank and conceal.
ed it in his home. Noticing that a
screen window had been removed
from a window in the room in
which the money was concealed, q
search was made for the money
and 1t could not be found. Blood.
hounds were brought from Mitchell
and took the trail which they fol.
lowed to Beardsley where it was
lost. Evidently the robbers had
taken the train at that point. 1t
is a dear price to pay for a lesson
that MIR. Wudel should have learn.
ed years ago but the same foolish
thing is doubtless being done by
many others and will continue to
be to the end of time.

South Dakota Returns

The result in South Dakota in.
dicates that Hughes has won by
from 10000 10 $4,000. Norbeck,
republican, for governor, has per-
haps twice that majority. The la
test reports indicate that Dillon, in
the first congressional district, and
johnson, in the second, both re-
p%ublicans have won, and that
Candy, democrat, has won for re-
election in the third. The entire
state republican ticket appears to
have won by safe majorities, al.
though reports are still very incom-
plete on these Offices.
On the constitutional amend
ments prohibition seems to have
carried by fully 10000 majority.
Equal suffrage is running very
close and may have carried. Very
few returns have yet been received
on the other amendments or re-
ferred laws.

The Presidential Race

Arrangements we're made to re.
ceive the election returns Tuesday
evening and a large crowd remain.
ed until after midnight to hear the
bulletins as they came in. Of
course the first reports were from
the East, and everything seemed to
indicate a landslide for Mr.. Hughes
Only a few returns we're received
from the west during the evening,
and while these showed a tendency
toward Wilson, the republicans
went home feeling confident of VIC
tory. The next morning the more
complete returns from the West
showed a western landslide for
Wilson which threatened to over.
come the Hughes lead in the east,
and turn the tide in favor of Wilson
This morning the reports received
over the wires state that Hughes is
seven ahead on the ELECTORAL vote
with Minnesota and California in
doubt. If this report is correct it
would appear that Mr. Hughes can
win if he gets either doubtful state
while Mr.. Wilson would have 10
get both to win. The presidential
contest is therefore still in doubt.
