fine Guard $50 FOR
ASSAULTING FORENAY \
Who Showed HIM UP

II required a good deal Of sharp
talk on the part Of Judge Churchman
in City Court this morning to explain
to Charles Edwards that he had no
legal right TO assault a man for al
legged attempts TO do him." as he
alleged. Edwards. who is a guard
with the Artillery Fuse Company, was
arrested last night, on charge of as
saulting Fred Warner, his foreman at
the plant In City Court this morning
witness testified Edwards struck
Warner with blackjack. rendering
him unconscious. Warner was struck
several times and badly beaten.
Edward pleaded ~plf-d fence, but IN
sisted the self defence consisted OF a
riplt 10 chusti-c Warner because the
latter had not treated him fairly while
at the plant. lie declared Warner had
done things to "show him up and had
been unfair as a foreman toward him.
Judge Churchman said this did moi
constitute sclf-defence nor Justify th'
assault. Edwards was disposed 10 argue
the matter with the Judge, who declared
hat IT, was an axiom as old as the
Anglo-SaN law that abusive words
did not constitute self-dCfence, an,
threatened 20 fine Edwards for con
tempt of court if he did not keep still
Edwards was then fined $50 and cost
or six months in the workhouse.

Some Federal Funds to be Spent in

deserving of federal aid were des.
ignated Friday by the state high
way commission in resolutions
forwardt d TO the department o.
agriculture. The bulk of the
appropriation to be received by
the state next year from the gov
ernment under the terms of the
federal road act goes to north
Idaho, the balance of 40 per cent
going to southern and eastern
Idaho.
The report did not include a
request for assistance in building
a highway from Boise to the
Arrowrock dam. The commits
sioners declared Ada county had
received much state aid in the
past, contending that counties en-
bracing the forest reserves we're
more deserving of help at this
time.
Roads to be improved in north
ern Idaho by federal aid include
the highways of Bonner, Kootenai,
Shoshone, Nez Perce and Clear
water counties.
In southeastern Idaho, Bear
Lake, Franklin and Fremont coun-
ties will be assisted.
The commissioners held that the
construction of that section of the
North Pacific state highway,
known as Fourth Of July canyon,
in Kootenai county, and a stretch
of road near Larson, Shoshone
county, were of first importance
and should receive immediate
attention.
Another road in north Idaho to
have federal aid leads north from
Standpoint to Priest lake, Bonner
county, and from Bonners Ferry
to the Idaho Montana line and
north through Boundary county to
the Canadian line.
With the exception of the road
work to be done in Fourth of July
canyon and the building of the
section of the Payette lakes road
between Horseshoe Bend and
Smiths Ferry, money for the
Idaho roads will be available July
I, 1917. Funds for the work now
being carried forward in the
Fourth of July canyon will be
raised this fall. The road to the
lakes will not get federal aid until
after the other highways recog-
nzed Thursday have been taken
care Of.
