Presidents Control
Over Rates Denied
By L. g. Martin
(United Press staff Correspondentl

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Feb. 2S.-The house to-
day refused President Wilson sole juris-
diction over railroad rates. By adopting
the Sweet amendment to the railroad
control bill, the house provided that the
president may initiate rates and put
them into effect Immediately, subject
to review and revision by the interstate
commerce commission.
This is the same provision contained
in the bill as passed by the senate, The
house bill originally provided the pre-.
sident could disregard any recommends
tions the commission might make.

new BUILDING
w. III. BADDELEY ENLARGING
BLACKSMITH AND REPAIR
SHOP.

w. II. Baddeley finds his black
smith and repair work increasing to
such an extent that his present quar-
tiers are far too small and much too
inconvenient to permit of handling
the accommodating patronage, consa
quently he has caused to be put In
course of construction a brick addi-
ton, cement floored, the dimensions
of which are TOMAS feet. This will
be connected up with the old build
ing for the time being, but Mr.. Bad
deley hopes to get permission from
the priority board to pull down the
old building and continue the addi-
ton now being erected up to the
street line. Should such permission
be granted wrecking of the old shop
will be begun at once. The inten-
ton is to have the front part of the
proposed new structure two stories
high. The part almost completed at
this time has but n floor. By the
end of this week the annex will be
rooted over and put in such a state
of completion that Mr.. Baddeley and
his force of workmen may be doing
their regular work in more spacious
quarters.
Mr.. Baddeley is to be commended
for his enterprise and no doubt he is
of the opinion that Madison is a good
town in which to live and do bust
ness. His new building will add
much to the appearance of Madison,
whose solidly built, neatly designed
business blocks are already spoken
of with a feeling of pride.

WOUNDED IN FRANCE
D.. III. KINER, OF THIS CITY, is
STRUCK BY SHRAPNEL.

Henry Kiner is today in receipt of
a letter from his son, j. H. Kiner,
with the American forces in France.
The letter states that Mr.. Kiner is in
4 hospital suffering from a wound
which he received on the battlefield.
In the thick of the fray he dived in
to a shell hole. but a piece of shrap-
mel struck him in the ankle before
he could fully conceal himself. His
father does not think the wound is
as he states that he expects
to be on the firing line again within
a week or two. This is the second
time j. II. Kiner has had hospital ex-
perience from injuries received on
the battlefield, a few week ago hav-
ing been gassed by the Huns. He
spent about two weeks in the hos
pital on this account and had been
out only a short time when wounded
in the foot.

LABOR PROBLEMS
GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL IN THE
CITY TODAY.

George Dixon is in the city from
Pierre comforting with County Agent
l. j. Bibby with reference to the de-
mands of this section for farm help
during the corn husking period.
Mr.. Dixon is an official of the gov
eminent employment service, and it
is his duty to study the territory as
signed him, compiling facts of labor
needs. He is investigating the entire
state of South Dakota and recruiting
l%aborers, both men and women,
wherever possible and shifting them
to sections where help is lacking.
Mr.. Dixon states that many women
are now employed at corn husking
around Sioux Falls and Sioux City.
He is anxious to secure enough
help within a couple of weeks or so
to take care of South Dakota's bump
er corn crop ere snow flies. He re-
ports it difficult to enlist the services
of a sufficient number of laborers to
supply even the immediate demand.

PREMIER HEADS REVOLT
Copenhagen Report Says KaroIyl
Opposes Austrian Rule.
independent State Is Formed In Hun.
gary When Emperor Charles
Refuses Demands.

Copenhagen, Oct. 30.-An indepen-
dent and antidynastic state has been
formed to Hungary under the leader
ship Of Count Michael Karolyi in agree
ment with the Czechs and South Sla-
vonians, according to Vienna reports
received by the Politiken.
In a speech at Budapest, Karolyi de-
clared he had presented his program
to Emperor Charles. who refused to
accept It. Karolyi thereupon put into
effect his plan for an Independent
state.
Count Karolyi is the new Hungarian
premier, named to succeed Baron Hus-
sarek, who recently resigned. He has
been strongly anti-German, and has
been urging the creation Of an indie
pendent Hungary. 1t was reported
that Karolyi planned to urge the en-
peror to appear before the Hungarian
diet to proclaim the independence OF
the Magyar state, but the above dis
patch would indicate that Charles at
the last moment renounced his inten-
ton and that the virtual secession OF
Hungary from the dual monarchy re-
suited, with Count Karolyi at the head.

Lake Preston, /. r. Kidder and Ed
mund Archer, home guards, ran up
on a stranger who was roaming aim
lessly about the railway yards dis
trict. He gave his name as John
Casper Bruner, of Sioux Falls, and
had papers showing he was register
ed in Sioux Falls as an enemy alien.
He also had in his possession a per-
nit authorizing him to go from Sioux
Falls to Watertown. How he came
to be wandering around the Lake
Preston railway yards is a mystery,
but as there was no evidence of con-
templated wrong doing on his part
he was released. Some time later a
night Waterman discovered a box
containing kerosene, pieces OF gum
ny stack, shavings and a fuse, at the
end of one of the elevators. Those
who had been about the elevator aft
er the departure of Bruner, the Sioux
Falls alien enemy, are confident the
box "a not there when he left town,
so there is mystery as to the identity
of the person who placed the box and
inflammable material at the point
where found.

Waubay, Oct. 30.-A steady de-

South Dakota is shown by the re-
ports of DR.. Park B. Jenkins of Wau-
bay, superintendent of the state
board of health. Saturdays figures
reported from all over the state
showed 500 new cases and Is deaths
as against 934 new cases and SO

parison proving the decrease is the
number for October 16, when there
were 2,929 new cases reported that
day in the state. DR.. Jenkins at
tributes the decline to the statewide
closing order and does not indicate
when the ban is likely to be removed.

CAN YOU BEAT 1T?

Have just come to my office. /
am leaving for the country in a few
minutes. Having no picture shows,
no pool halls, nc concert halls or any
other places of recreation for you to
go to, l believe that before going in
the country, it is my duty to write
just a short stub on my new discov-
cry for your evenings amusement.
Prof. Lawrence, in the Mondays
Sentinel, makes a statement as TO the
comparative Normal attendance OF
Madison Normal for the year
ending June 80, 1917, and June 80,
1918. l have been visiting with
Prof. Lawrence this morning. He
tells me that in computing the num-
Der of students in the Normal depart
ment for a given year. he included
all pupils taking private lessons from
Normal teachers. To make clear
what l mean, ] will give you a con-
crete example. Last year Leona
Lemons and Ruth Opperud were
both regular eighth grade students
in our city schools. Both took pri-
ate lessons in music, one-half hour
a week, from a Normal teacher.
Both were included in Prof. Law
.~rence's figures of students attending
the Normal department for the year
ending June 80, 1918.
Prof. Lawrence further tells me
that in computing the number of stu
dents attending the Normal depart
ment of the Madison State Normal
for a given year: For example from
the LIST day of July, 1917, up till the
30th day of June, 1918, they includ-
ed all of the Summer school students
enrolled in the first and second term
of the Summer school of 1917, and
also all of the Summer school stu
dents enrolled in the first and second
term of the summer school of 1917,
and also all OF the summer school
students enroll ed in the first term of
the summer sc hool of 1918. BY en-
ploying this method for computing
the number o students in a given
year, all Summer school students en-
rolled in the first term of each year
are counted tw ice. Can you beat it?
Prof. Lawrence also informs me
that if a regu lar Normal student
signs a new registration card when
he enters the Summer school, he is
counted twice when the yearly at
tendance of tai Normal is computed.
Do you belle we / had a right to ask
who juggled the figures?" Have
| a right to ask now, why the figures
were juggled? Will DR.. Heston take
the responsible ity, or will he disclaim
any and all KIN owledge Of this ingen-
ious method OF padding the Normal
attendance?
Before the Joint committee on APP
preparation of the 1917 legislature,
Regent Campbell, of Huron, made
the unqualified d statement that the
Madison Norm al had, al hat partic-
ular time, 550 students in attend
ance When l secured a list OF stu
dents in actual attendance, / found
that there we're considerably less
than 400. Is it possible that Regent
Campbell wilfully misrepresented the
facts to the said committee, or did
DR.. Heston deceive or mislead MN!
AS TO Prof. Buechel's and DR.. Hes
toms articles, I shall, perhaps, take
those up in a day or two. But just
now. lest the Doctor forgets, we will
again ask, WHO JUGGLED The
FIGURES?
