THE SPEAKERSHIP.
Speaker National House Come Near
Being Dictator as Republican
Institutions Permit.

lone man power" has never been
very popular in this country. Yet
there are single positions in our gov
eminent scheme that have gained an
ascendency never contemplated in
the Constitution The most notable
Of these is the speaker Of the Nation
al House. BY the power Of the House
rules and the appointment and con-
troll of committees he comes about as
near being a dictator as republican
institutions permit.
Even a dictator has to consider
public sentiment. The speaker must
consult with party leaders. He can
not proceed far on any policy that
does not have their sanction. But it
gives a masterful personality chance
to impose his will.
The appointment of committees is
a matter that should not be too much
under any one mans control. The
obituary of many a good bill is writ
ten the day it is referred to hostile
committee. There are a hundred
ways of dillydallying and only one of
prompt action. There are thous-
and excuses that can be offered. A
bill can be shunted along from one
hearing to another until the end of
the session, when it is impossible to
get anything through.
Pigeon holing a petition is the poll
tician's favorite and artistic method
Of doing it to death. If it is taken
up and beaten, odium is incurred
The members are driven from cover
and forced to record themselves. II
it can be quietly smothered, the
people can't blame anyone, in par
ticular. The committee is the favor
tie method of doing that, and the
speaker the man who drops the tip to
the committee.
This spring, when the vote on the
speakership is so close and not yet
fully decided, is good year fol
thought on these matters. The
House as a whole should take hand
in the naming of committees, and see
that active men are placed in charge
whose tendency will be to get things
done, to give good proposals a fair
chance.

CITY MANAGER QUITS.

Webster City, March 19.-H. G..
Vollmer, who has held the position
of city manager here for year, has
resigned and plans to leave here
April /. Manager Nollmer's resig-
nation came as a bolt of lightning
out of clear sky to the members Of
the council His formal resignation
cites no reason for his action.
1t is understood here, however,
that Mr.. Vollmer has had several
offers of better position and his
friends make no secret OF the fact
that the resignation was largely
caused by the insistence of the coun-
Gil in curbing the managers author
Iity. At no time since Mr.. Vollmer
came here has he been given the full
management Of the citv'S affairs His
friends claim he has been so ham
pered as to interfere seriously with
his resignation is the elimination of
dissatisfaction with the attitude the
council assumed toward him.
Mr. Vollmer came to Webster City
from Burlington a little more than
year ago.
Webster City is operating under
the manager plan Of government and
the resignation of Manager Vollmer
necessitates the hiring Of a new man
to take his place. A new council
will be elected March &c and it is
likely that no one will be hired until
after this election.

eating. Avoid badly ventilated places,
for infection is more likely to occur
there because OF floating dust and
droplets OF mucus from infected
throats.
Every sore throat must be looked
upon as diphtheriar until the con-
trary is proven, and the only way of
proving this is by cultures examined
bacteriologically - to determine IL
diphtheria bacilli are present. This
always takes some hours, and in the
meantime the patient should be kept
In q room BY himself, or with only
an attendant. Hhe should be provided
with his own tableware, which should
be kept in the room. Anything neces-
sarily leaving the room should be
sterilized before 1t is put into general
use.
THE attendant should wear an out
er garment and a head covering while
in the room, and these should be left
at the doorway when going out. The
hands of the attendant should be
carefully washed and rinsed in q
germicidal solution before mingIing
with the other members OF the house
hold.
"If such precautions be taken and
the case proves not to be diphtheria.
no harm will be done. II the case
proves to be diphtheria, such precau-
tions may prove to have been the
means OF avoiding the infection of
other persons, and they should be
continued throughout the Continuance
OF the case"
Only two cases OF diphtheria were
reported to the Health Office today
and six yesterday, making the total
number OF cases under treatment 1877.
OF these, seventy-eight were patients
who were really sick from the disease
and the others were Carriers"

DR.. William C. Woodward. health
officer Of the District today gave The
Times a statement on the diphtheria
epidemic in the East. There is no
danger OF the epidemic reaching seri-
GUS proportions in Washington, DR..
Woodward points out. The disease is
diminishing, there being only 1877
cases under treatment today, as
against 2O5 during the week ending
November "a. DR.. Woodward's state
ment follows:
"The early Isolation Of every sus-
pected case OF sore throat and i'm
mediate treatment are the most i'm
portAnt precautions. urgsd-the nrst
to prevent the spread OF the disease
and the latter to save the life of the
patient. Early administration of ade-
quate doses of Gptitoxin. IL the pa
tient shows a sort throat, is essential,
but In the case OF a carrier the appli-
cation OF tests to determine his sus.
ceptibility to q serious form OF infec-
tion may preceds the administration
of the remedy and determine the need
for IT.
Some Germs Present Always.
AS from to 2 per cent. OF the
population in the average city carries
diphtheria germs all the time, the
only reliable method OF protection
against the disease lies In the devel-
opment OF habits OF scrupulous per-
sonal cleanliness. II both the car
rier and the person In contact with
him are clean, the likelihood of infec-
ton is lessened Just twice as much
as II only one Of them Is careful in
his habits, but even II only the per-
son exposed Is careful he need not
fear infection.
'Diphtheria is spread from the dis
charges from the mouth and nose.
Such discharges fnd their way from
the mouth or nose OF one person to
the mouth or nose Of another directly
through droplets thrown out In sneez-
ing, coughing, or even forcible talk
ing.
"They may pass indirectly through
the use OF q common drinking cup,
or through spoons, forks, cups, and
other such table utensils not steIIl-
lied after having been used by q
diphtheria carrier. Even the bubble
fountain has recently been shown to
-
be possible conveyer of diphtheria.
Pencils, dirty fingers, and other things
that ought not to go into the mouth
or nose at all. but which do fnd their
ways into such crehces, are all dan
