Nirnrod's Apostles
Start On Time
Hunting Season Opening Is Marked
With Booming Shot Guns and
Baying Dogs.

Apostles of the proud Nimrod this
morning whistled a merry summons
to their faithful dogs and with shot
guns shining hied them forth to greet
the "dappled dawn" as the first day
of hunting season opened sharp ana
frosty for all the state except in the
counties of Fairfax and Shenandoah
in which the season does not open
until November IS. The golden COW
cred hills and wales echoed the rev.
erberation of the guns as they opens
ed fire when many sportsmen from
Washington and this city started
in with the season.
Game of the kind usually found il
this section, quail and cOtton-tails,
is reported to be more abundant than
in several years previous the reason
for this is said to have been the un-
usually mild weather of last winter
Clerk of the Corporation Court,
Elliott F. Hoffman. reports that he
has been kept busy for the past few
days issuing permits to prospective
hunters as both resident and non
resident hunters are required to have
these permits.

In Progress
Three Squares On West From King

To Lay Sidewalks.

The improvement Of streets in the
vicinity fthe high schol has beenbe,
gun under the direction of city Enei-
neer Dun.
Appropriations for the work were
made short time ago by city council
and it is hoped TO have 4 good part OF
the work completed before cold wealth
er sets in.
A bituminous macadam roadway
thirty-six feet wide on West street
from King to Princess streets, a dis
tance of three squares, will not only
give a good roadway to the high school
but also TO Jefferson school north Of
the high school, the latter now being
in course of construction, IS now un-
der construction.
In addition to this road it also is pro>
posed to lay granolithic sidewalks on
the west side of West street from
King to Princess streets.
Gravel roads are to be laid on Queen
street from Payne to West street, i
distance of one square and on
Cameron street from West to
Harvard street, a distance OF approx
mately two squares. The last named
road also will connect with the pro-
psed Young Mems Christian Assocla-
tion building which probably will be
erected early in the spring on Harvard

Next Congress
Will Be Evener
Democratic Gains Are Expected BY
Everyone, But None Commits
Himself On How Much.
BY Lawrence Martin

Washington, Nov. IA much even
er balance between the two parties
should prevail in the next House OF
REPRESENTATIVES, unless all political
weather-signs fail in the congress-
ional elections next Tuesday.
No one, not even the wisest and
most experienced political prophets,
hereabouts, will pin himself down to
a definite prediction as to the extent
to which the house will be leveled
down" by Democratic gains, but every
body expects those gains to be made.
The reasons for this is that it is
the "off year." which in the past has
been notably good to the minority
party in congress.
In 1918 an off year election over
turned the Democratic control and
gave it to the Republicans. While no
such upset is possible this year be
cause the senate is too strongly Re-
publican to be changed by this years
result, the fight for control Of the
House has large possibilities for the
Democrats.
A second reason for this is that in
a landslide such as put the Republi
cans into power in 1920, many men
are elected to congress who are zone
termers." They are more or less po-
litical accidents, and nobody expects
them to come back in a normal po-
itical year. These are always weeded
out at the first election, after a land
slide. Their departure seldom causes
even their own party any pang.
Republican leaders say liberal es-
innate Of Democratic gains in the
next House shows the Republicans
will retain control by from 80 to 100.
Down in their hearts they would not
particularly care if their margin were
cut to rs or 80 for that would still
be control, and in the past two years
their big majority-it totals 16S or
thereabouts-has several times prov
ed unwieldy.
Democratic claims are modest and
general, but there are many party
leaders who honestly expect the mid
die western states to show such large
Democratic gains that Republican
control of the House will be endan-
gered. Illinois is being counted on
for heavy gains, as are other states
in that section.
