TO MAKE FIFTH ATTEMPT.

Although the one bid received
for the $4,000, 900 in Idaho state
highway bonds, on the fourth
advertisement of sale of the
bonds, was rejected. hope is still
held out by state officials at
Boise, that the bonds will be
sold, and highway work in Idaho
can proceed.
State Treasurer d. F. Banks,
at Boise, has received inquiry
from one of the largest bonding
houses in the United States, ask
ing If accept"vce of a bid for
part of an option of thirty days
on the rest of the bond issue will
be considered.
The bonding company was tele-
graphed that the bonds would be
readvertised for sale and the bid
considered if some assurance is
given that the bid will be made.
In event no agreement is made
with this bonding company, Mr..
Banks announced the matter
would be dropped for the time
heing until the bond market i'm
proves. He looks for improve
ment in the bond market. start
ing in October or November or
up to the first of the year. He
however. regards the last offer
as encouraging.
The fourth issue of state high.
way bonds is for $4,000. 900
The bonds are dated Jan. /. 1921
are payable in twenty years, and
bear 5 percent interest. The
last session of the legislature ap.
propriated S97.50O for the dis.
position of the bonds by fiscal
agent.
A great deal of interest is TAX
en- in this section in the proposed
sale of the bonds, as $4,000 OF
the $4,000, 1000 issue will be for
thcoming as soon as the bonds
are sold for the construction of
a wagon road between Rice
Greek and Cottonwood, and O
large sum of the issue will be
used in Idaho county on the

COUNCIL SELLS
$4,000 ISSUE
MARTZEN BUYS $4,000
BOND ISSUE--DO SOME
WORK THIS FALL.

The city council, in session
Thursday evening, by a unani-
nous vote ordered the chairman
and city clerk to proceed to make
final arrangements to close a
deal with Felix Msrtzen, local
bidder for the sale of $4,000
worth of bonds which were vot-
ed for recently, his bid being
par and accrued interest.
Mr.. Maltzen has deposited
with the city clerk a certificate
of deposit amounting to 10 per
cent of the issue as a guarantee
that he will carry out the provi-
sions of his contract which calls
for $4,000 this fall and the re-
manning $4,000 as quickly as
the council demands the money
for street improvements. The
bid offered by MIR. Martzen was
the only one received by the
council for the issue.
All five members of the city
council, Messrs. Peterson, Hoene
Mckinney, Hussman and Baker,
considered the proposal as
offered by Mr.. Martzen a good
bid and a better one than could
be expected from any of the
large bonding houses at this
tim.e, considering the present
bond market.
Do Work This Fall
The city council is of the opin-
ion that some of the street i'm
provements should be done this
fall, and according to their esti-
mate about $4,000 will be needed
to do work that is necessary to
make some Of the streets pass
able after the wet weather sets
in. The street that will receive
first attention is the one leading
out of Cottonwood via the cream
cry and to connect with the hard
surfaced road completed this
summer by the Cottonwood high
way district. This is also the
main road travelled between Cot
tonwood and Grangeville.
Will Meet With Commissioners
The next move of the council
will be to meet with the COM
missioners of Cottonwood high
way district to-talk matters over
with them regarding road con-
struction and to receive from
them valuable information and
experience which they gained
through actual construction of
roads in their district. They will
then employe competent road
constructor to proceed with the
work.
No Engineer
The matter of employing an
engineer to handle the technical
points connected with the con-
struction was brought up at the
council meeting Wednesday even
ing and every member of this
distinguished body threatened to
leave the room and resign from
the council if the matter of ell
gineers was not dropped at once.
They contend that the road built
by the Cottonwood Highway
district this summer without the
aid of an engil Yer was good
enough for them.N If the will
and wishes, of the council are
carried out the citizens of Cot
tonwood will receive dollars
worth of improvements fol
every dollar expended.

Judge Boyd, of the Federal Court
for North Carolina, who has just
held that the revised version Of tie
Overwhelming child labor law is
unconstitutional, does not preside
over a tribunal of final resort. So
there would seem no good reason for
those who would heed the bitter cry
of the children to feel discouraged.
The Supreme Courts decision in
validating the frs. national child
labor law was a five to-four one, aad
with new issue to pass on it is not
unlikely that the law will be upheld.
Judge Boyd may be rated a Dit
doctrinaire in his solicitude for
state rights, while the Supreme
Court, as now constituted, leans o
the national point Of view. More
over the influences of North Caro-
lima, which has been callous on the
child labor question, have surround
ed Judge Boyd, whereas the atmos-
phere about the Supreme Court is
more liberal.
The nullified law prohibited goods
from factories employing child labor
entering interstate commerce. The
prohibition was SO sweeping that the
laws validity. was from the begin
ling doubted by many opponents Of
child labor. The substitute enact
ment contains no prohibition-is an
excise measure which imposes a tax
on goods in whose making children
were employed if the goods are
shipped out of the state. Thus it can
be urged that the purpose of the tax
is not to prohibit but establish fair
competition.
With respect to the emission Of
currency by state banks, and with
respect to oleomargarine and other
merchandisable articles, excise taxes
have been imposed, and their legality
has been upheld by the Supreme
Court. Will the court be inclined to
reverse itself to serve selfish employ
ers who would sweat children and
enjoy an indecent advantage over
their competitors in other states?
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1921-08-25

Panama has listened to reason.
Secretary of State Hughes made it
quite clear that, in view Of America
special relations with Panama, fight
ing over the Costa Rican boundary
award would not be tolerated by
Washington. To some his attitude
may appear dictatorial; but it is
merely another instance that right
is no less effective because it is
backed by might. Only the knowl-
edge that America was prepared to
enforce the arbitration award and
prevent by arms renewal of TIE
war between Costa Rica and Pan
ANA has preserved the peace.
The Secretary justified his veto
against renewed hostilities by an
appeal to the special relations Of The
United States to Panama. In view
Of the general terms of the treaty of
1903, it is to be presumed that Mr..
Hughes, following the precedent tf
other Secretaries Of State, referred
to stipulations inherent in the treaty
Of 1886 with New Granada. This is
the same treaty to which Secretary
Hay reverted at the time Panama
became a republic.
The successful and peaceful con-
clusion of this, the first important in
ternational question that came to
Mr.. Hughes for decision, will be well
coined by all Its effect in Latin
America in particular cannot but en-
nance the prestige Of the United
States and the principle Of arbitra-
ten.

Russian Relief by u. S. Ships

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Allow me, as an American and
taxpayer, to protest in advance
against the sending of one pound of
American relief supplies to Russia in
anything but an American snip.
The time is now here when we must
fight for the continuance Of our ship
ping. Foreign agents are already per
fecting their plans for the handling of
this freight. Plausible excuses, such as
the necessity for dispatch, and thou
sand other reasons viii be presented to
show that this food should be moved in
foreign bottoms.
If foreign ships carried it for moth
ing it still would be the height of folly
to ship it SO.
Make up cargoes, or even partial
cargocs, and ship under the Stars and
Stripes. FELIX ROSENBERG.

A Midsummer Dream

Investigation justiies the conclu-
sion that some other way of improv-
ing vehicular transit across the Hud-
son River must be found than the
one suggested in the pontoon bridge
proposal The proponents Of the
"project' to string fleet of war
time and jerry built wooden hulls
from Yonkers to the New Jersey
shore seem not to have followed their
idea beyond the borders Of the mid
summer dream which conceived it.
The "project" is not hard to trace
from its inception to its present
stature in the form Of the enabling
act which Senator I're!inghuysen
has introduced and which pcnds in
Congress. Somebody out for
motor jaunt emerged annoyed and
Ill tempered from a delayed crossing
Of the river. Being gifted, however,
with an imagination beyond the
average mortal, who suffers such in
convenlences only to forget them,
this person bethought him of d
bridge. There was the solution Of
being held up at ferry crossings by
congestcd traffic. And if pleasure
vehicles dds not have to use the
ferries, ergo there would be more
space on the boats for the trucks and
wagons and vans IF business!
This must have happened on one
OF the days that the Shipping Board
was advertising bargain day in
wooden ships. The very thing!
These ships were built to "bridgc"
the Atlantic. The association of
ideas did the rest. They would
achieve their destiny, these ships, by
bridging something at last. They
could be bridge across the Hudson,
Dimly then it was remembered or
perhaps suggested by :alothcr genius.

our waterways. SO bill to permit

A Bear Story

The story that Ex-Governor o.
born Of Michigan killed black bear
which was swimming in the s..
Mary's River adds an interesting.
episode to the history cf hunting id
ventures. The Governor, according
to the report, was in rowboat, with
only 4 revolver and an ak, and pur-
sued the animal as it swan for shore.
The pistol proved useless, and aAen
the boat approached near enough to
the animal so that Mr.. Osborn was
able TO strike at it with the ak the
bear in it's turn attacked the boat.
Ex-Governor Osborn succeeded in
grabbing the bear by the throat-a.,
operation more easily described BY
an ardent reporter than performed
even by the stanchcst fighter-an,l
finally killed it with his ak.
The black bear has not the fight
ing reputation Of the grizzly. Rarely.
II ever, has it been known to act
ferociously toward mankind unless
wounded. And there are very few
accounts Of bears of any species
lighting boats. Perhaps the bess
known is the story Of the grizzly
bear which, without provocation,
plunged into the river and attacked
