Defining the Issues

Secretary GaIrisOns resignation reveals SITUATION
in which both sides right, and both wrong The
correspondence between the secretary and the president
is interesting as showing what caused the final break
The president was right in insisting that he could not
dictate to congress the details of legislative measures ana
the secretary was wrong in principle IN his nsisence
upon an utimatum from the white house; the secretary
was right in his view that there is an overpoweung
need for truly federal national reserve, and the
president is probably mistaken in thinking that the
national guard be turned into effective national
reserve on sufficient scale to meet the need Both
are right in urging large national reserve and botn
are probably wrong in being willing to accept any
compromise for universal training in time OF peace
universal service in time of war, and an adequate
standing army.
Certainly the honorable thing, when the wide a.
ference developed for the secretary 20 resign TINS
focuses the attention Of the country his plans, his
reasons and his protests So far the military policy
has not become party question There is very great
difference of opinion in the Republican party as there
is in the Democratic party, and the prevailing senu-
ment IN the Progressive party is probably strongly
pacfist, in spite of the Rooseveltian propaganda.
There is why it should become party
question. But the Democrats will make 1t party
question if they refuse to confer with opposition leaders
take into the sentiment of the country re-
CARELESS of party. If of the type of congressman
Hay undertake to shove administration military
policy through a strict party measure in spite OF
technical and well grounded objections they may expect
to have to face organized opposition from some source

BY S. H. HAYS, MAYOR OF BOISE.

DIR. Edward q. Sisson, commissioner
When &c urged that special attention
be given to Idaho history. So much
interest has been shown in the sub
ject that the Carnegie library has es-
tablished an Idaho Shelf" for books
relating to the history of Idaho. There
would be added interest in the subject
if people knew where to go for the
sources of information about Idahos
early day history and perhaps it may
not be amiss to give list of some
o. the books that have to do with it.
Tne account of the Lewis and Clark
expedition is perhaps the first took
that should be read. The Lewis and
Clark party entered the eastern boun>
Diary of Idaho near the southern and of
Lemhi county. They Travelled thence
rorthwesterly along the Lemhi river
to its junction with the Salmon;
thence for some distance down the
Salmon, but finding this road too diff
ficult to travel, they turned back ano
went over the mountains into Montana !:
down the Bitter Root valley nearly to
tne town of Missoula; then turning to
the west across the mountains again
on to the headwaters of the Cie ,--
watcr river in Idaho; thence JNn
that RIVER to Lewiston. The story of
the Indian woman who piloted the par
ty is che of remarkable interest.
The next account of travel in Ida
no was written fy Washington Iry.aS
and IDAHO is fortunate indeed in nav
ing that author lend his facile pen to
IN account of the travellers who frst
made their way down the Snake river
valley.
The W. p. Hunt party entered Ida
no on its eastern border a little to the

Snake river intersects the eastern
line of the state; thence they travelled

so per cent of the value of the property
and 20 per cent of the value of the
improvements. All loans must be made
through a broker or farming organi-
zation. She asserted that farmer
cannot apply personally for a loan and
secure 1t from one OF the rural credit
banks. He must live on the land and
cultivate it; he cannot transfer title
to any person without the consent or
the farm loan bank and his heirs must
qualify in the event of his death, as
holders of title within go days after his
decease. Mrs. Munson further declared
that a farmer must purchase per
cent of the amount Of his loan in stock
before the loan is made, while the
banks are permitted to make loans to
all kinds of enterprise without re-
striction as we'll as certificates of de-
post drawing 4 per cent.
CHILD LABOR ACT.
Pointing out the defects in the child
labor law, Mrs. Munson said during
her Meridian address,
Consider for a moment what this
bill proposes. Does it forbid child Ia
Dor in any respect? No. Does it for
bid either -effectually or at all the ship
ments into interstate commerce the
does it do? 1t forbids the manufac-
tured product, whether made by chill
dren or not, which comes from a manu-
featuring plant or establishment in
which children are employed under
specified ages, from being shipped into
| interstate commerce until 80 days after
the manufactured product has been
taken from the place of manufacture.
Is there something unclean or dam
gerous in the goods themselves which
will be recified by q 30day mora
forum? Apparently this is the theory.
What the bill amounts to is dec
laration that the manufacturer who
has one or more children of forbidden
age in his plant is forbidden to ship
any of the articles made by the plan,
! whether the product of child labor or
not until 80 days after the removal of
the article from the plant. The manu-
facturer is supposed to place his entire
product in storage for 80 days before
shipment into interstate commerce. If
he has any children of forbidden age
about his place. White cotton cloth
| from a southern loom is not like a lot
terry ticket. or a dangerous drug. If nc
child labor has gone into the manu-
facture of the cloth. what possible le-
gal excuse can there be for refusal
to permit the shipping of that cloth
into interstate transportation because
it comes from a place where one OIL
more children are employed? To be
correctly named, the law is one impos-
ing a quarantine of 80 days on al
places from which goods come il
which children of forbidden ages are
employed. The law is one of absurd
indiscretion. 1t penalties the goods
it penalties the place of manufacture
it does not penallze child labor excep
by far off inference.
/ rs it conceivable that the United
States supreme court would sustain
such a law? No decision justifies the
slightest hope that it would. 1t Is
obviously bad In principle"
