Veto Solely With President

This same day. Aug. 16. the conven-
ton voted to lodge the veto power
solely in the executive. Hugh William
son Of North Carolina, remarked that
there was no danger in this. He pre-
ferred it, he said, to admitting the
judges into the business of legislation.
Which was about the last word said
on the subject in the convention that
framed the United States Constitution.
Or, at least, the last word found in the
official reports of it's proceedings.

TWO STATES CLAIM TOWN
WITH MINERAL RICHES
Hurley, Wis.,, Declared to Be
RightfuIIy Michigan's.

1ronwOOd, Mich.-On the arm of the
attorney general of Michigan, the town
of Hurley, Wis, notorious in its past
has been ushered before the Supreme
court of the United States. Born to
notoriety in the days of the north
cOuntry's rum rebellion" Hurley,
nevertheless, is desire by Michigan,
with Wisconsin just as firm in fight
ing the attempt to remove the town
from its jurisdiction.
Hurley is on the small strip of land
that Michigan claims as its own, de-
spite the fact that the land, situated
in Iron and Villas counties, has been
Wisconsin territory since 1886 Mich
tgan's contention, as presented to the
Supreme court is, that the boundary
line between Michigan and Wisconsin
was established originally as Through
the middle of the main channel OF
the Montreal river" Later it was dis
covered that the original surveys were
incorrect; that the river branched.
Michigan asserts that the correct
boundary is in the west branch of the
river; Wisconsin, the east branch.
The territorial acquisition that
would result to Michigan, if this
states contentious are recognized by
the high court, would be small in
besides the land in the two
Wisconsin counties, several islands in
the Menominee river and Washington
island in Green Bay. Valuable depos-
its of iron and coal, however, make
the disputed terrain tempting bone
for the two commonwealth to wrangle
over.
Michigan's bill of complaint charges
that Wisconsin has refused to settle
the boundary dispute. Wis
,onsin is required to file answer by
January z. 4
Michigan officials have explained
he present court action is not as
much directed to the extension of the
erritoriai limits as it is to the settle
nent forever, one way or another, of
he boundary argument.

UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
TO TAKE UP MANLY ART

Prospects that boxing will be TAX
en- up by a large number of Univer-
sity of Idaho men during the COM
ing winter seems probable accord
ing to Robert Ferris, newly acquired
trainer and boxing instructor in the
athletic department, who states that
nearly 100 men have spoken to him
regarding turning out for the sport.
Boxing has never been recognized
as a sport at the university in the
past, but efforts are being made this
year to schedule series of matches
with neighboring Pacific Coast con-
ference institutions. Graduate man
ager Albert Knudson has already
opened negotiations with both the
University of Oregon and Washington
State College seeking matches, which
will likely mature. Oregon is said
to have a strong aggregation of nit
men.
Robert Ferris, who will take over
instruction in the sport, has been en-
gagged as trainer for all varsity teams
and as assistant in the physical edu-
cation department. He was form
er1y with the Multnomah club at
Portland, and has had considerable
experience in his work.

U. S. HUNTER LIVELY TINE
Bruin, Caught in Trap, Battles
After Being Wounded.

Washington.-When bear loses
one of his legs he does not find it
necessary to appeal to the keeper Of
zoo for quarters and rations for the
rest of his life. According to Govern
ment Hunter w. II. Caywood, bear
so crippled may destroy a great deal
of live stock and put up a stiff fight
when caught. A recent report by one
of the predatory animal inspectors of
the biological survey of the United
States Department of Agriculture
contains an account of this hunters
experience in trapping such a bear,
which was one of three killed by him
In few months in the ranges of west
ern Colorado.
For the last two years stOckmen In
that region had complained OF great
losses of sheep and cattle through the
depredations of the three killers. In
June one ranchman lost niLe steers.
Later Hunter Caywood was put on the
job in this locality and he trapped
and killed all of the trio. The last
one was a brown male weighing about
$50 pounds and having but three legs.
Part of the left hind leg had evident

some time before.
In roaming the range this brown
bear would make three well-defined
normal tracks, but the fourth one was
merely a round depression, and where
the ground was wet the imprint of
hair could be seen. This unusual vari-
alton in bear tracks puzzled the hunt
er for several months and it was not
until he trapped the animal that the
mystery was cleared up.
After being caught in the trap this
tough old raider, running on three
cylinders. dragged the 25-pound trap
and toggle three-quarters of mile, |
and on the approach OF the hunter |
took refuge In thicket of quaking |
aspen. Here he put up what the |
hunter called an honest-to-goodness
fight which nearly ended In hand-to
claw encounter. The old marauder,
minus one leg and with another drag
ying many pounds of trap and toggle,
