Foes of Humphrey
Act Are Confident.

According to the best information, a
majority Of the members of council
had not agreed to sign such resolu-
ton today. Leaders of the opponents
to charter reforms said they felt abso-
lutely confident that the Humphrey
resolution would be defeated, however.
In their efforts to line UP councilmen
in opposition to the Humphrey reso-
luton which provides for commit
Tee of five councilmen and ten citl-
zans to recommend a new charter,
prominent board members are active.
While few of the councilmen will ad-
init that they are opposed to revision
Of the old charter. the issue has mar
rowcd down to fight between re-
forms and those who would maintain
The old system. No one expects coun =
ell to make any radical reforms

IDAHO TO BE DRY IS
RETALIATION PLAN

BOISE, Jan. 31.-Yesterday ther,
was a lively propaganda on in favo
of a statewide prohibition measure
and the advocates of extreme legisla
tion were in evidence in the halls fol-
the first time during the session.
Home rule" was the keynote of {
liquor bill introduced by Senator Mac
beth. 1t is intended to cut out the
county as the unit in matters of loca
option and substitute therefor the in
corporated city or town or village and
that part Of the county lying outside
of such interpretations.
Senator Macbeth's bill provides fol-
the amendment of number of Sec
tions of the search and seizure law
enacted by the last legislature. Sec
tion / Of the new law is amended to
read: Each incorporated city, town,
village and county unit shall consti-
tute a separate and distinct local op-
/ tion unit for the determination for
itself whether the sale Of intoxicat-
ing liquors as beverage shall be per-
mitted or prohibited within such in
corporated city, town, village or coun-
ty unit"
Another provision is as follows:
"That for the purpose Of this act the
phrase county unit shall mean all that
part of the county outside the incor-
porated cities, towns and villages, and
such county unit shall be designated
by the name of the county in which
it is contained" Provisions are also
made for the circulation of petitions
and the filing of them with the city
clerk or other proper official calling
for wet and dry elections.
This bill is expected to stir up a
general discussion of the liquor issue
in the state.
There is statewide prohibition in
the air around the state house. 1t
has been held in subsection up to this
time by leaders in the temperance
move, but the introduction of Senator
Macbeth's bill to give cities, towns
and villages home rule in the matter
of liquor sale regulation started the
storm.
There was silent agreement, it is
now explained, among the temperance
advocates to keep quiet and to make
no move in favor of prohibition un-
less the "other side" started things.
Now that the other side, which of
course means the opponents Of pro-
hibition and the enemies Of the pres
ent county option law, have started
things in the introduction of the Mac
beth bill the threat is openly madel
