Orvillo Guntle, residing in the eastern part of Preble county, was arrested late Wednesday afternoon at his home on a charge of forgery.

Guntle has a wife and child. He is about 25 years old. In the mayor court Guntle told the mayor he would have to go home, as his wife was ill and in bed. He said they had arrested the wrong man, as he was innocent. Mayor Risinger had much difficulty in explaining the operation of the law to the prisoner.

Stamper, pastor of the First. Christian church, talked Wednesday night. Rev. Stamp-1 er's address was one of a series which he is making at the church each night this week. "In describing the Christian life, the Apostle tells the Greeks of Corinth of his Tace when he smid, 'Know ye not that they who run, run all; even so run that ye may attain.' And at life's close he looks back over the f.ast and writes to Timothy, 'I have finished the cause,' " said Rev. Stamper. "TLis Christian race is an arduous struggle. It is not simply a stroll, but a run. It is a struggle with a fixed! aim and with a definite place for run ning. it is a race to De run wun perFeverance. 'Be thou faithful unto Heath' is the condition of successful I running. It is a race in which we are I . all public spectacles. Our friends watch us run and cheer and help us run. Our enemies watch us run. but they jeer and guy and try to prevent U3 running our best. "The conditions of successful running are twofold. We are to lay aside the weights, the things which are not sinful by harmful in influence, and also the sins which so easily beset us. ' "The encouragements to run are more than we ordinarily think. There are our friends who help and cheer. There are the heroes of the fai.h who watch us run. Then there are our loved ones gone on before. They aro mil 1 1 o' v. ii vui i - run with great anxiety. Finally, Jesus is watching us run and saying, Lo, I am with you always. Even so run that you may attain that crown that fadeth not away." OWN OWN HOMES XORWAEK, O., Feb. 16.

The Voteless Capital City By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 16. , The opinion is being widely expressed here that Washington's Knickerbocker theatre disaster may be indirectly connected with tho capital's form of government. The claim .has been put lorth that sucli a disaster would have been far less likely to occur in a city governed by responsible officials. In other cities government officials are elected to office by the people, and if they prove to be inefficient the people have it in their power to elect new ones. In Washington, the entire municipal government is in the hands of federal officials who are occupied with affairs of nation-wide interest. The selection of the commissioners of the district is one smal detail in the work of the president, who may or may not tboroughly understand the needs of the capital city. Whoever is appointed to office in the district must be accepted by the people. So, in the talk of more rigid building inspection, renovation cf old buildings, compulsory removal of snow from the sidewalks and roofs, and other safeguards against another disaster, there are also voices raised to urge a more fundamental reform a responsible government for the district. Two hills and a resolution for a constitutional amendment, all designed to improve the lot of the capital city, have for some time been before con gress, beveral senators and many Washingtonians are urging that one of these measures be passed as a memorial to the former congressman and other residents of Washington who lost their lives in the Knickerbocker disaster. The senate committee on the District of Columbia recently held a hearing on the three measures for enfranchising the district, and it i3 believed that one of the bills will be reported out favorably.

Ch. WaruandDitto hibilion will lead congress to scrutinize suggestions for changes more cautiously than ever before. Getting two-thirds of the members of both branches of congress to approve an amendment concerning a city which few of them regard as home would, it is realized, prove a difficult undertaking. And getting threefourths of the states interested in ratifying such an amendment which seems to concern them only indirectly would be equally difficult. It is said that the majority of senators and representatives firmly oppose the idea of giving the capital suffrage in this way. The advocates of freedom for the district, therefore, are pinning their nopes on the other measures. One of these would give the district two delegates in congress and almost complete self-government. The people would be allowed to elect the commissioners to direct the city's affairs, the board of education and the public utilities commissioners. There is some sentiment in congress in favor of this wide latitude for the district, but probably not enough to insure passage. The most promising bill, so far as enactment is concerned, is the least liberal. It leaves congress in control of the city and allows the district people to elect one delegate to congress. This official would be on a par with the delegates from Hawaii, Porto Rico. Alaska, and the Philippines. He would have a voice in congress, but. no vote. A voteless delegate is obviously not so desirable to a city as a full-fledged representative. But the District of Columbia has got to the point where it will accept any measure that gives it a standing as a responsible community. It has taken Washington some time to be aroused to interest in this question. Any other city would long ago have opposed the idea of having it3 welfare administered by a body, no single member of which was directly concerned in its welfare. But Washington has a large proportion of transient residents. The government clerk, diplomat, politician and armv and navy officer tend to regard life in Washington as a camping out experience. In the past few years, however, business men and citizens' associations have succeeded in interesting the casual population in the capital's worries. A few wealthy men who are interested in banks, real estate and utili ties and who are powerful under the present system are said to fe the mainstay of the opposition.

Bain bridge ly two of the greatest dogs ever imported. They are Welsh Scout and Mis3 Springtime, a pair shown in England by George S. Thomas and sold by him to Homer B. Gage of Worcester, Mass. This pair took the highest , possible honors in England during the last two years, and on several occasions were rated best in the 6how. Canines of nine foreign nations are in the exhibit, and competition promises to be keen among the foreign breeds. ernment of the capital is a common topic about the city. When the district appropriation bill conies up, congress is told how many schools are needed. Crodwed conditions' are pointed out. Congressmen are taken to seo schoolrooms with every dess taken and children sitting in chairs too bish for them at the teacher's desk. Perhaps the committee is sympathetic, and pares down the requested appropriation only a little. But somewhere between the committee and the president's signature the funds are slashed so that conditions remain much as they were. Congressional Interest Lags. Washington shrugs its shoulders and remarks that it wouldn't happen anywhere else, but of course congress, aside from a few members, possibly, isn't vitally intereste'd in the district, and it is easy to economize there. I This goes on in every phase of Washington's government. The fire chief is now lamenting that he needs a searchlight truck should have had one long ago. A powerful light thrown on the Knickerbocker theatre while rescue work was feverishly going on in the dark would have been an invaluable aid. It might have saved lives. But even now, the searchlight truck has been cut from the appro priation bill as not urgently necessary. Workers for local suffrage here see signs pointing to a change in the city's government. They firmly believe that before thi3 congress ends some sort of suffrage will be granted the people of the national capital, and that they will be given some measure of the political liberty enjoyed by citizens of the states. It is a strange fact that Washington should be the only capital in the world without a representative government of some sort. It is even stranger, perhaps, that this city, which ha3 a much larger population than seven of the states, should be the only community under the United States flag that is completely disfranchised.
