.HAWLEY'S STAND
ON LOCAL OPTION
Democratic Candidate for Cover
nor Believes in Trying Out the
Present Law---Not in Favor of
Prohibition.
A Boise dispatch of Aug.

A Boise dispatch of Aug. 9
says:
In an authorized interview, ].
H. Hawley, democratic candidate
for governor, stated today he is
opposed to statewide prohibi-
ton, adding: There is one
question that has seemingly oc-
cupied the attention of many of
our citizens and which is consid-
cred by many the most important
issue of the coming campaign
and this is the temperance ques-
ton. / do not consider it a liv-
ing issue. In my judgment it is
like the Mormon question that
divided the democratic party for
several years. A majority of
the people of the state decided at
the last election in favor of local
option, that being an issue
squarely made by the platform
of the republican party in that
campaign, and the legislature
formulated this into a legislative
enactment and passed the statute
with reference to county local
option. l believed at the time
that precinct local option instead
of county local option was to the
best interest of the state or that
the larger cities should be ex-
empted from the provision of the
law. The county local option
law was passed, however, and it
is part of the law of the state.
1t has not as yet been given a
full trial. l do not believe in the
policy of changing laws until it
has been determined by their ac-
tual operation whether such laws
are beneficial or whether they
are prejudicial to the best inter-
ests of the state. It is an old
time democratic principle that
those entrusted with the execu-
ton of the laws shall see that
they are properly executed /
respect the opinion Of the officer
whose duty it is to enforce them.
Il will if elected enforce this
law as the other laws of the state
so far as it lies in Official duty to
do so. l am opposed to changing
the law from county option to
state wide prohibition. Each
county can under the present
system regulate or prohibit the
liquor traffic within its boundar-
les. Even if were a believer in
state wide prohibition / still
would oppose a law to that effect
until the local option law has
been given a more thorough trial
than it has yet had. l make this
statement with reference to my
latitude on this question not be-
cause l believe it will be an issue
in the coming campaign but for
the reason that it is regarded by
some of our citizens as the para
mount issue and therefore l do
not desire to be misunderstood
in regard to it. "

Crop Proving A Fair Average One

AS harvest progresses t h e
farmers are finding out that their
crops are turning out much bet
ter than expected and will fall
but little short of an average
crop, in spite of the long spell of
hot, dry weather this summer.
Fall wheat is very fair and will
run from 80 to 45 bushels per
acre, some fields even exceeding
the latter figure. Winter barley
is yielding from 60 to rs bushels,
while spring barley in many
cases is much better than was
expected. Late sown spring
wheat will not amount to much
but the early sown crops are
very fair and up near the mount
ain will yield fully as much as in
other years.
In fact, the total grain crop in
this county will be a fair average
one and far ahead of the yields
that are being reported from
other sections of the northwest.
When it comes to raising the
best crops of grain, year in and
year out, let the seasons be dry
or wet Camas Prairie has all
other sections left in the shade.
