SIGNS DRASTIC LIQUOR LAW
Gov. Hawley Attaches Signature to
Search and Seizure Bill.

The search, seizure and confis-
cation" liquor bill became law Sat
urday by the ssignature of Governor
Hawley. According to reports from
the state capitol, the governor pre-
ferred to veto the bill than sign it,
but the strong pressure brought to
bear by his party leaders, caused
him to change his mind. In an in
terview in the Boise papers, he
states his position as follows.
"This bill in some of its provi-
sions violates the constitution of the
state, and in others runs counter TO
the long estaplished methods and
procedure of the state, while some
other provisions are of such dras-
trio nature that they should hardly
be tolerated. in the state.
But l am pledged to uphold the
local option law and to preserve it
intact This was part of my party
platform, and was contained in my
address to the people in the recent
campaign. This local option law, in
itself, is admittedly a failure, unless
it is supplemented by further legis-
lation providing new methods and
machinery for it's enforcement.

EMMETT HIGH SCHOOL
WINS PENNANT
Cinches the Championship
Winning Hard Fought
Game from Boise.


BY defeating the Boise High
school five Friday nj hit, the never
defeated Emmett High scnool team
won the championship of the south
western scholastic league and will
battle with Twin Falls, champions
pf southeastern Idaho, for the
championship of southern Idaho.
The game was the fastest and
most stubbornly fought ever seen on
the local court. There were times
when victory hung in the balance
and the scales were turned only by
the most stubborn resistance and
generalship On the part of Emmett.
But the victor was clean cut and de-
cisive The play was fast from the
call of time until the close. Endur-
ance played as prominent a part as
skill, and there were no signs of
weakness on either side.
Emmett took the lead from the
start, scoring three field goals and
one foul in the first few minutes
of play and before the Boise lads
realized what had happened. Then
both teams settled down to gruelling
work and the scores that followed
were hard earned.
The first half resulted in score

Hi. Henry Plans to Generate

and under date of February IS out
lines his plans in letter to the In

there is food for thought-namely
ownership by the city of all public

the Idaho Northern is soon to ex-

The Henry Coal Company is now
considering the generation of fuel
gas at their mines and will pipe this
down past the mines on the Payette,
and to Pearl, and perhaps Sweet.
Would this not be an ideal method
of obtaining fuel for Emmett? Their
would be no delay by II ain. No smoke
no ashes, and a much greater utili-
cation of the energy of coal. The
proper method of doing this is for
Emmett to adopt the system of pub
lie utilities so essential to a city.
The life necessities such as light,
heat, fuel, power, and drinking water
should belong to every city. This
places them above speculation and
the saving in a very short time is
surprising. In less than five years
Emmett would save more tlan

CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-It may be a

suit if several foreign nations decide
