INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM
Idaho Direct Legislation League to
Extend It's Sphere Of influence and
Orga lie in Every City and Town

Idaho law reformers have in
structed campaign in this state
towards having placed on the
statute books the initiative, re-
ferendum and recall and efforts.
are to be made from now on and
during the pendingfall campaign
to make every candidate for the
legislature declare himself for or
against the issues in order that
the electors may ascertain where
they stand and whether or not
they are entitled to the support
of the voters. This was the in
formation given out by Gustave
Kroeger, one Of the active pro
motors of the reform law who
today sent out notice that a
mass meeting of those interested
in the movement and the work
of the Idaho Direct legislation
league, which will back it, will be
held in the council chamber at
the city hall tomorrow night
when w. H. Hornibrook of Twin
Falls, the new president of the
league, elected to succeed K. |.
Perky, at "a recentn Getting Of the
executive board, will be present
and deliver an address.
Some idea of the systematic
manner in which the league will
carry on its work from now on
can be ascertained when it is
learned its members plan to per-
feet an organization of the state
league in every village, town and
city in Idaho and have the men,
bers Of each assist in the promo
tion of the reform which is to be
a nonpartisan issue. 1t is said
to be backed by the labor or
CARNATIONS, and was an issue
with the democratic party during
the last election and popular with
the so-called "insurgent" repub-
licans as well as many of the
regular" members of that par
ty. The slogan under which the
league sails is "The right of the
people to make their own laws. ;"
The meeting tomorrow evening
will if the present program is ear
ried out, witness the active for
nation Of the plans by which the
purposes of the league can becar-
ried out, and the arousing of the
people to back acampaign which
shall be vigorously waged within
the boundaries of the state of
Idaho.

STATE BOARD WANTS
ADDITIONAL LAND GRANTS

The State Desert Land Board has
applied through is delegation in con-
gress for an additional grant Of l.
100000 acres of desert land in the
state to be reclaimed under the Carey
act, and also for a grant of the lake
bed, and adjacent swamp lands of
Warner Lake.
The original grant of 100000
acres to the state has not yet been
exhausted, but owing to the fact that
five new projects have been initiated
within the last nine months, it was
feared by the board that this develop
ment of the arid lands of the state
would be checked if an additional
grant of land was not made, and con-
cluded to apply for it.
One OF these projects is in the War
ner Valley in Lake county, and COM
prises about 100000 acres of land,
which can be reclaimed by diverting
the water of the tributaries of the
lake. This would cause the lake to
dry up, and it is then proposed to ir-
rigate the lake bed lands thus. eX-
posed.

Women Can Now Vote

Women of the state of Washington, 81
years of age or over, now have the right
to vote at all general or special elections,
Gov. M, E. Hay having issued Monday
his proclamation putting in force the
constitutional amendment adopted by
the male voters at the election held
Nov. 8.
Complete returns from all counties
were received by the secretary of state
Monday and promptly certified to the
governor, who at once proclaimed the
result.
The returns show that the suffrage
amendment carried by majority Of
%, ,623 votes, 52,299 votes having been
cast for it and 29.676 against it.
Although women now have the right
to vote they will be unable to partici-
pate in any elections until next year, as
the registration books throughout the
state have been closed for the year, and
the attorney general has ruled that
women who registered prior to the issu-
ance of the governors proclamation are
illegally registered.

Money From National Forests

Bonner county's road and school funds
will be enriched to the extent of $12, 900
as result of the sales of timber on the
Pend Oreille and Kaniksu National For
ests for the fiscal year 1910. The revenue
from these sales amounted to about
$4,000, one-fourth of which must be
appropriated for school and road pur-
poses.
Last year Bonner county's apportion-
ment was only $500. This large increase
of revenue is almost entirely due to a
corresponding increase in the sale of
timber on the two forests which exist in
the county.
According to a recent report of the
United States department of agriculture
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1910,
25 per cent of the national forest revenue,
which goes to the states, where forest
funds have been created, for school apd
road purposes, amounted to $5O6, 1884, "a
This was $e6 1872 .03 more than last year,
or an increase of little over Is per cent
The payments are an offset to the loss
of income from taxable property sus'
tanned through withdrawal of the forest
and from entry under the public lane
laws.-Sandpoin Review.

SECOND TICKET IN THE FIELD
Candidates Pledged To Oppose
Granting Licenses
Liquor Question Forced to Front.

At caucus held at the M. E. church
Wednesday evening second ticket was
placed in the field for the municipal
election. to be held in Newport on Tues.
day, Dec. 6. The ticket was designated
as the Citizens ticket and is composed
as follows:
For Mayor-E. J. Lutz.
For Councilmen-J. E. Williams.
George Piatt, Carl Erwin.
For Treasurer-Charles Bell.
The following platform was adopted
as setting forth the views of the caucus
add the conduct of Office proposed by the
nominees:
Whereas. At the last general election
the citizens of Newport voted that the
city council be empowered to grant Ii
censes for the selling of liquors. and in
view of the fact that large number of
the citizens of Newport desire that the
city remain dry, they have placed men
in nomination who have pledged them
selves, if elected, to vote against the
granting of such license.
The ticket nominated by the Business
Mems party last week was as follows:
For Mayor-E. I. Jones.
For Councilmen-George Graupner,
DIR. O G. Nelson, H. G. Murphy.
For Treasurer F. Bell.
The Business Mems ticket stands for
a licensed, well regulated saloon, in &C.
cordance with the will of the people as
expressed at the local option election o1
Nov. s.
The nomination of the SECOND
ticket means that Newport will
again have to choose between
licensed saloons and prohibi
ton. 1t was thought that it would bt
possible to get through municipal poll
tics this year without the usual turmoil

East Sides Voting Strength

The following table shows the voting
strength of the precincts of the east side
of Stevens county. as taken from the
official canvass made by the board of
county commissioners and published in
the Statesman-Index. 1t is likely that
not to exceed one-half of the vote was
cast on this side of the county, with the
possible exception of some of the towns,
as but little interest was taken in the
election and no great effort made to get
out the vote. The total vote cast on
congressman was 761.
