PORTHILL.

Porthill, Idaho. Mar. rs, 1918.
Hans Hickman and William
Skivington are both home for a
weeks vacation from Standpoint
where they have been attending
high school.
A few of our young folks attend
ed the Rifle Club dance at Creston
last evening, walking the fourteen
miles up and back, and report a
fine time.
Section Foreman Miller with two
men have been given the Porthill
section filling the vacancy left by
Tom Pappas when he was sent to
the Creston section last week.
One of those unfounded rumors
that we are to have ri-weekly
train service on the K. ", is again
going the rounds, no one apparent
ly knowing the authority for the
statement.
Olson & Co. who have finished
their tie contract, have made ar
rangements to sell their ties to the
Canadian Pacific Ry, shipping
them by way of Wilkes, Jet. They
have shipped several cars during
the past week and will continue to
do so as fast as they are inspected
by the Canadian Pacific tie inspec-
tor.
The $4,000 caterpillar tractor of
the Canyon City Lumber Co which
was damaged by FIRE in their camp
a few miles north, of Porthill a
short time ago will shortly be put
into service again it is said, as the
insurance people have under taker
to have it rebuilt and put into
servicable condition again as the
easiest way of fulfilling their obi
cations.
Indications point to an early re
sumption of operations at the Idah,
Continental as they are beginning
to hire teams in large number
lately. J. E. Howe who has beef
contracting for the Boomers Ferr,
Lumber Co. all winter getting on
logs, has gone to work for tn
Idaho Continental with clever
head of horses.
G. N. Agent Wilson has re
ceived word that he will be trans
ferred in a short time to a Colum
bia River station on the main lin
west of Spokane, as soon as hi
i successor can be chosen.

the physicians have announced that
the only hope the girl has OF overcom

WILSON WON'T TRY TO
COERCE CALIFORNIA
State Must Fellow Its Own Will
as to the Proposed Law
Against the Japanese.
WILL TEST ACT IN COURTS
Question of Constitutionality
Will Be Raised at Once, and
Japan Will Be Asked to
Await the Outcome.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau !

Washin. ton. April 9-Whilc the
President dcplorcs the possibility of the
enactment of discriminatory legislation
against the japanese in California. he
has told Representative Rakcr accord
ing TO the latter. that he will not inter
fere with the sovereign rights Of the
state. although Governor Johnson and
the Legislature have been advised that
treaty obligations with Japan should
be respected.
The decision Of President Wilson not
to try to block the proposed legislation
by federal authority follows unsuccess-
ful efforts by the Secretary of state to
dissuade the leaders in the Legislature
from pressing the measure. President
Wilson does not believe he could cxcr-
else the same personal influence eXcrtcd
by President Roosevelt In stopping OBJ
iectionablc legislation against the Jap
anesc school children, and so the ad-
ministration is compelled TO await de-
vclOpmcnts.
Little doubt remains that the enact
mcnt of the alien land law will result In
serious international complications and
rrayclv strain the relations between the
United States and Japan. The Jap
ancsc Ambassador has vigorously
urged that. in the opinion OF ms gov
crnment. the proposed law violates inc
treaty of .9ll. although Californians
contest this argument
Representative Rakcr was at the
White House this forenoon. and said h.
was authorized by President Wilson To
announce the non-interfercnce policy OF
the administration. The decision fol-
lowed an hours conference between
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan.
The President was shown the follow
ing telegram from J. B. Sanford, OF the
California Legislature:
"People demanding enactment OF
alien land law. If Legislature refuses,
people Will resort TO initiative. Senu-
mont five To one in favor Of alien land
law. Government should not interfere
with our local affairs. Hands OF at
Washington. Japs own 5000 acres
land. lease 10000 acres. More in
formation SOON
President Wilson has not abandoned
hone that the bill will not he passed.
Int has taken the attitude that state
rights" must be recognized. Tho con
etitutionality Of the law will bc tested
in the United States courts as soon as
possible if the measure passes ana
Japan will be informed that nothing
can bc done until the outcome of the
litigation is known.
