MARTIAL LAW
IS ON IN IDAHO

GOVERNOR ROSS of Idaho Sat-
VI urday night proclaimed martial
law in three counties in which
the main forest fire zone of south
ern Idaho is located and ordered
out troops.
The hungry and idle men have
found out they can create work by
setting fire to the forests and at
least a few of the mean get job
in the fire brigade fighting forest
fires. AS soon as one fire is well
under control, one or more are
started at some other place, which
shows that people out of work are
not looking for a dole but are will
ing to do an honest days work and
earn their days pay.
All agree with the governor
when he says: cit is a vicious
practice that some men have fallen
into. 1t has hindered control Of
the fires. Hardly is one fire un-
der control when another is start.
ed. Somebody is doing it. We
know their reasons, of course, art

So the governor orders out the
troops, not to fight the fires bu'
to fight the men who set the fire.

CHINA NEAR BREAK
WITH MEXICO OVER
TROUBLE IN SONORA

Mexico City, Au. 81 A break
of diplomatic relations between
Mexico and China was threatened
Saturday when the Chinese lega-
ton was informed that 80 per cent
of the Chinese business houses in
Sonora had been closed.
Sonora officials reiterated warn
ings TO Chinese to leave the state
before Sept. 8, the legations adj
vices said. Many of the Chinese
residents of the state were without
food because they were forced to
close their stores and were not
permitted to remove stocks or pur-
chase elsewhere, the legation an
nounced.
Minister Yung urgently asked
another appointment with Presi-
dent RubiO, who recently promised
federal protection for Chinese in
the state.
Few of the Chinese have left So
nora because they have nowhere
TO go. The consul at Nogales re-
ported that they would be permit
ted to cross the border to the I'm
tied States temporarily, if it prov
ed necessary.

In addition to these obvious reas-
ons, emergency laws are absolute
" necessary to provide adequate,
speedy and effective aid to the
poor.
/ shall mention few of the nee
essary laws, viz
LIST. A law authorizing and di-
|Tecting the Adjutant General of
the state of Montana to take over,
control and distribute all relief
funds provided by the state and all
funds and supplies sent to this
state by outside charitable organi-
cations for the relief of the unem-
ployed and drouth sufferers; also,
all funds in those counties that re-
quire state aid for the unemployed
and drouth sufferers. The Adju-
! tant General should be given au-
1 thority to draftsuch help as may
! be required to carry on relief work.
Such an arrangement would in
sure the poor 1000 benefit of the
relief funds and supplies, for the
reason that the militia together
with the expenses incurred in dis
tributing said relief would be paiC
by the state.
End. To authorize the state anC
the counties to take money from
any available funds to provide re-
lief for the destitute when sale
counties by reason of non-paymen-
of taxes are unable to provide sale
relief.
3rd. To amend the law of 191!
providing aid for farmers authoriz
ing counties to provide aid to un
employed workmen either directl,
or by giving them work.
4th. To enact law forgivin,
farmers and workmen all penaltie
J on taxes for three years beginning
with 1880. And upon suffiicen
showing by affidavit. to grant
moratorium to tax debtors for on
or more years.
9Th. To enact a lawg permitting
counties to unscramble.
In these days of automobiles an
, speed wagons, no more countie
: are needed than there are distriC
!. court subdivisions.
