PAR AND INTEREST IS
 BID FUR S650,000
 WDRTHOF C|TYBONDS

Two of three bidders offered par and a premium with accrued interest for s6 50,O00 worth of Phoenix municipal bonds when bids were opened at the city commission meeting yesterday. The third bidder offered par and &C., crued interest. Because of a minor de- feet in the bids. sale of the bonds was deferred indefinitely.
 Three separate bond issues comprise the S65O,000 total, the first being water works bonds in the sum of $450,000; the second. sewer bonds in the sum of S140,0OO and the third fire department bonds in the sum of s6000O. These bonds were voted at a special city election held last November.
 One bid was entered by Charles E. McArthur of Phoenix on behalf of | Keane, Bigbie and company of Detroit and Hallgarten and company of New York City. The bid was par and ac- crued interest for the total issues on the condition that Mir. McArthur be ! paid a commission of $11, 1,462.5O. The bonds are also subject to the opinion of Wood & Oakley attorneys of New | York city, as to the validity of the issue. A certified check for $32,750 accompanied the bid.
 E. IT. Rollins & Sons. William R. | Compton company and The National ! City company of Denver bid $1010.25 for each $1.000 par value of bonds, plus accrued interest to date of their | delivery to them in either Chicago or | New York city, at their option. Cashiers checks in the amounts of
 S22,50O. $7,O0O and S3250 accompanied the bid. This bid was also made on the condition that the bonds be to the entire satisfaction of their attorneys as to their legality.
 The Bankers Trust company of Den- ! yer, the Continental and Commercial Trust & Savings Banks of Chicago
 and the Harris Trust &s Savings Bank,
 also of Chicago, offered par and &C.,
 premium of $972.50. The bid was made
 separately on the three issues. These
 companies also made their bid condi-
 tional to their acceptance by their
 attorneys.
 City Attorney Richard F. Sloan ad-
 vised the city commission against the acceptance of any bid under such
 terms. The wording, "evidencing their
 legality to the entire satisfaction of
 their attorneys he held to be a defect
 in the bids. Much delay and consider
 able expense can be saved the city, he
 declared, by leaving the matter open
 for an indefinite period to give these bidders an opportunity to make slight
 changes in the wording of their bids. He suggested that the wording of the bids should be changed to read
 Subject to the legality of the bonds" This would leave the companies no , loop holes should they decide not to purchase the issue after all arrange ments had been completed, he said. On
 the face of the bids submitted, they
 could refuse the issue without penalty , whether or not the bonds were valid

PHOENIX ID HAVE
 REAL CHAIN GANG

The Phoenix police department is go- ing to have real honest-to goodness chain gang Provisions for the legal creation of such a gang were made at yesterdays meeting of the city com mission when City Attorney Richard eN Sloan was instructed to draft an ordinance covering the situation.
 Some time ago City Manager V. A Thompson announced that a chain gang would be created to remedy con- ditions at the city jail and to rid the city of many vagrants, here for the warm winter months. But when t-- city attempted to do SO 1t was found that certain provisions of the city charter must be considered.
 As a result it will be necessary tC adopt an ordinance legalizing such 6 step. A draft os the proposed ordi- nance will be given its first hearing at next weeks meeting. 1t is expected

Wash" Vanderlp. Americas greatest concessiopaire
to hear him tell It, Is back In his own country, withut q
passport but with u.veral additional concessions.
You remember Wash don't you, the head OF the.
Los Angeles Millionaire club-he says he heads million
|aires-who Lenine quoted as promising to gain recognition
for the Soviet if Harding was elected !? In return for that
recognition vanderip was to get 400, 900 square miles Of
kamchatka including oil and coal lands.
Secretary Hughes colby refused to recognize the Soviet
SO Lenine told Wash that the Soviet didn't own the
kanchatka property anyway and therefore wash and
his pals couldn't have It. Besides. vladivostok refused
to let go Of the land.
This was . facer for wash, because he had been
Filling the newspapers with poetic tales nbout the kindly
Mr.. Lenine an6 Mr.. Trotzky and how tkey loved America,
and especially Mi. Harding. Mr.. Lenipe intimated that
he wouldn't try to force vladivostok to let 90 unless Wash"
came through with the recognition agreement. However,
the pair then cooked up another fanciful story to feed
those gullible Yankees, especially the newspaper men.
Wash" now tells US that he has other concessions,
which he treats as valid and says he can dispose Of as he
Rleases.
One Of these conveys 10, 600. 900 acres OF land covered
with spruce forests. It is enough to make any Newspaper
publishers mouth water to think OF the reduction Of SO to
70 per cent m the price OF paper which Vanderlip bangles
before them as the consequence OF the spruce concession.
This is expected to bring vanderlip the support Of all the
newspapers of the country.
And anothe. concession Is two seaports on the Siberian
coast, which Mr.. vanderlip insists are Of inestimable value.
One of them he names; the other is locked for the p:resent
in his own bosom. The Siberian coast is not unexplored.
The Russian government was In desperate need Of ice
free ports, and it was not entirely satisfied with v1adivo-
stok. For that reason it grabbed Port Arthur from China,
which it lost to Japan, after spending a vast sum OF money
in developing it. Now, it is a curious fact that it should
have incurred the risk of taking Port Arthur. and the ex-
pense of developing it, while it had two unused and ire
proachably excellent ports on the Siberian coast. But there
they are, and vanderlfp has got both. He is going to keep
one for purposes. not disclosed, but probably for the ship
pins Of the products OF his 400, 900 square miles, and the
other he will give to the United States.
Thus vanderlip will secure the support Of the United
States government and Of the newspaper press for the
enforcement of his concessions. the 400 400 Snuare miles.
the 10, 100000 acres OF spruce, and the Siberian port which
will dominate the Pacific ocean-Helena Independent.

A SONG IN EVERYTHING
There is a song in everything,
In every little care thai comes,
In babies as they such their thumbs,
The tunes, the brave canaries sing,
The mothers patient, gentle smile,
The glory of the after-while.
There is no sadness but is sweet
With fragrance. and there is nj
But spreads some beauty on life's
" way;
The dust and the weary feet
Upon their homeward journey bring
Delights which loving hearts MAJ
sing. ~
The high chair and the cradle, too, a.
Have ever set brave lips to song,
No grief has ever lived SO long ~.
But turned to music as it grew,
And every hour of strife and pain
Leaves in the heart some sweet re-
frain.
Lord. teach me this. from day to day
To find beyond the hurt and care
Thy mercy shining everywhere;
Let me rejoice that children play,
And know when bitter tenpestA
sting
There is a song in everything.

HOW ABOUT COLONEL HARVEY?

The Sims incident is no sooner disposed or than we
have another Harvey incident. The first Harvey incident
first speech in London, presented his views of the reasons
why the United States entered the war in terms winch
were highly distasteful to a good many Americans, and
which called forth protest from many quarters. There has
an address on this side, Secretary Hughes discussed Amer
ica's entrance into the war in terms which have often
been described as a Reputation of the sentiments uttered
by Ambassador Harry.
Then came the Sims incident, in which the doughty
admiral discussed certain phases of the Irish situation in
a highly indiscreet manner, resulting in a tempest of pro-
test. Sims was called home in a hurry, and very pointedly
reprimanded by Secretary DENLY. This measure of dis
ciplne fell far short of some of the demands, one of which
was for the summary dismissal Of the officer and his ex-
not dismissed nor excluded, but is still at his desk attend
ing to his official duties. He has admitted that he, got
what was coming to him, but his general demeanor and
the fact that he made another speech on the Fourth indi-
cate that he does not feel incurably Inundated.
Then came Ambassador Harvey with another speech,
and we miss our guess if his recent remarks do not add
more fuel to the flames. In a Fourth of July address in
London Colonel Harvey used this language In reference
to the revolt Of the American colonies:
Whether the territory comprising the United
States could have been retained is wholly speculative.
But one fact is certain-if George the Third had 1ssu-
ed a proclamation even a~pproximating in eloquent sin
cerity and appealing force that Uttered the other day
cie a nation, there would have been no ringing Of
bells in Philadelphia one hundred and forty-five years
ago tonight, nor for many years thereafter.
In other words, according to Colonel Harvey, if the
attitude OF the British government of revolutionary times
toward the American colonies had been as wise and tenn
perate and sincere as is the attitude Of the British govern
ment Of today toward Ireland, the colonists would have
been content that the British connection should endure
indefinitely.
Manifestiy, this thing is getting thicker and thicker.

THE ECONOMIC LEAGUE VOTE

"A vote taken among its members by a voluntary as
socsahon Is never conclusive when the subject under con-
sideration is one involving action by the general public
because no one is competent to speak for the general pub
lie except itself and its regularly chosen representatives.
And the circumstances are often such that the chosen
representatives have no way of knowing what the public
actually wants.
There are Voluntary bodies. however, which are SO
constituted that they may be considered fairly representa-
tive of the general public or Of important sections of 1t.
One such organization is the National Economic league,
whose members haiEng from every state in the union,
have been chosen as the result of recommendations made
by many times their number of persons, and because of
the familiarity of these persons with the nominees. The
members represent the professions and the industries,
commerce, finance and agriculture. and are chosen en-
ttrelys without thought of their political afiliation. A
vote Of this membership, therefore, while it settles moth
ing, is at least a significant straw to aid in determining
the direction of the wind.
In the vote Of this league, the result to date of which
has Just been published. 80 per cent Of the voters are in
favor Of membership by the United States in some asso-
ciation Of nations. There are 65 per cent OF the members
stantial1y the terms formerly favored by the senate.
Eighty-six per cent. favor our joining the international
court. Strong sentiment was also expressed in favor OF
q conference for the limitation Of armament, with disap-
prevail Of the suggestion that Allied indebtedness be either
cancelled or transferred into the form of German bonds
There is little doubt that If the sentiment of the en-
tire country could be expressed directly on all of these
subjects without the complications of personal candi-
dacies and political maneuvering, the result would be sub
stantiaIiy as indicated in the vote Of the Economic league.

RUNNING THEMSELVES.

- II only OuCluN Ina can be reached from
some OF the testimony offered in the Brinton trial at Bis
marck is that organizations Of one kind and another,
whose business activities were distributed all over the
state. and which handled immense sums of money collect
ed from thousands of people, had neither head nor tail,
and were permitted to run themselves purely by luck.
There are the consumers stores, the Publishers Service
bureau, the Northwestern Service bureau, the League ex-
change, and a whole string Of banks. TOR the operation Of
which no one seems willing to assume responsibility.
Several people holding positions in these institutions
which ordinarily would be considered positions of respon-
sibihty, have testified that as a matter Of fact they knew
little or nothing of what was going on in relation to mat
tiers which they were supposed to have in charge. Each
organization had it's officers, but time after time these Of
ficers have disclaimed knowledge. Certain things may or
may not have been done. They do not know. If they ever
did know they have forgotten. They have signed papers,
but Just why they are uncertain. Somebody thought It
was necessary to do certain things. The papers were drawn
and signed, and that is the extent of the knowledge Of
these witnesses.
1t is significant that the names of Townley and Lerke
crop out so often in the evidence Of the states witnesses.
quite active in shaping the policies Of all these organiza-
lions. and the officers. presidents, secretaries and SO forth
have handled the affairs OF their departments in accord
ance with the wishes Of these men.
OF course IN all this there is nothing new. The facts
have been quite generaly understood. They arre.now mere
" being placed formally on record. And, be it remember
ed, the facts are being established by the testimony OF.
the states witnesses.
The heated term has certainly arrived. Down
