legislation has been referred in an

preparation of money for roads in
Idaho.
The western states have been
given additional representation in
the senate on the public buildings
and grounds committee in the ap-
pointment of Senator Brady OF
Idaho as a member of that com
mittee. 1t is reasonable to expect
that Idaho and the western sta
will now be given better considera-
ton in the passage of legislation
providing for additional public

THE MAsONs ENTERTAIN
Social Evening at the Lodge Room
Enjoyed by Big Crowd.

A large crowd, members and in
yited guests of the local Masonic
lodge, had delightful time at the
lodge room Monday evening. The
amusements were of wide enough
range to offer something of interest
and entertainment to all A num-
Der of short talks on Masonry and
the fellowship of mankind, vocal
and instrumental music. readings
and all kinds of games came in
their order and were very much en-
joyed At about eleven O'Clock a
dainty luncheon was served, mem
bers of the lodge acting as walters,
and they proved themselves just
about as efficient in that line as
they are as entertainers.
1t was a very pleasant affair from
start to finish.

Pocatello Monday night where they
were treated to a coat of white
wash by the bowlers of that city.
The games were all hotly contest
ed, especially the last two when the
Pocatello team had to exert itself
to the limit in order to win. The
games were not up to the calibre
of those rolled on the local alleys
last week, the local team piling up
bigger total on the Pocatello al
leys than the Pocatello team did on
the local alleys. Numerous things
proved serious obstacles to the local
boys, such as strange alleys, lights
and short alley approaches. The
Pocatello alleys are lighted all over
with an even light which caused a
glare in the bowlers' eyes. The
local bowlers are accustomed to
having only spotlights over the
pins and were at a disadvantage
in this respect. DR.. Dorne and
Moench were unable to get a good
delivery due to the fact of the ball
rack being placed at the back of
the approach making it impossible
to swing the balls. Below is given
the lineup and scores of the con-
test:

A LITTLE SLICE
FOR OUR STATE
OF s25, 100000 GOVERNMENT AP-
PRECIPITATION FOR GOOD
ROADS IDAHO GETS $50, 900
Fight VIII be Carried Into the
Senate to Have Area of States
and Road Mileage Considered dn
Apportioning Funds.

Washington, d. G. Feb. 1.-THE
good roads appropriation bill calling
for an appropriation of $25,O0O'OOO
has passed the house of representa-
tives. AS the bill is now drawn the
distribution Of the appropriation car
ried by the bill will be made upon
the basis of the population and
number of miles of star routes in
each state.
II is estimated that Idaho's share
of this bill will be only about $780,
900. Representative Mondell OF
Wyoming introduced an amendment
in the house calling for the addl-
tional item of area taken in con-
nection with population and star
routes in making the division OF
the money, providing for the dis
tribtFion to be made by the sew
eral state approprating an amount
of money to be spent along with
the amount of money given by the
federal government according TO
the ratio that the cultivated land in
each state bears to the total area
of land in the state. The admin
istration steam roller in the house,
however, refused to consider the
Mondell amendment and the fight
win now be carried into the SEN
ate by the Wyoming senators aid
by Senator Brady of Idaho and
other western senators. If their
efforts are successful, Idaho will
come in for her fair share, which
will amount to neanly half mil
lion dollars.
In addition to this Senator Brady
has pushed his thirty thousand dol
lar appropriation bill for the com
pletion of the BoiSe-Yellowstont
road from Ashton to Yellowstone

ton before the committee on agri'

The situation is a most peculiar
one When Power county was crea-
ted by the last legislature it was
given a large amount of territory in

and is now dry" 1t also took in

was then and is now wet" Ameri
Falls and the greater part of the
new county so created is dry by
virtue of the local option law.
However, that portion of Blaine
and which is located directly across
the river from American Falls is sti
wet" according to one Doc WesJ
who is said to be conducting
thriving saloon business just over
the bridge. When this issue was
raised before the attorney general
he held that in view of the fact tha
the territory Power county annexed
from Blaine county was wet and
in a wet" county, it would still be
| wet" regardless of the fact thai
the greater portion of Power coun
| ty is dry" this territory having
come from old Oneida county which
was also dry"
The question in its several form;
viii be raised before the Supreme
} court if this case reaches it are:
Can a county be both dry" anC
"wet?" Does wet" territory, o.
territory that belonged to a wet
county that is annexed by a dry
county or a new county created ou
of a dry county, become dry
or does it remain "wet?" Will
} require a local option election ii
the entire county to determin
whether or not the wet" portion
= of the county shall become dry

Governor Byrne is being made aware
that there are a number of cities and
citizens in the state who are taking
an interest in the situation. Prac-
tically every town of Importance in
the state feels that it is the proper

Applications are also numerous
from those who desire commissions

as the different companies of the
state guard is concerned discusses
the possibilities of the guard in case
of need as follows:
THE company will leave with a
knowledge of hygiene and camp san

and fire control. 1t will be guided
by officers who in the past half doz-
en- years have attended encamp-
ments, maneuvers and numerous
schools of instruction and who have
acquired at least elements of mill
tary science. For several years past
officers have been required to keep
up constant study and to submit an

REMAIN NEUTRAL
CARRANZA AND VILLA SAID To
BE AGREED ON NEUTRALITY.

Ell Paso, Tex, April 3O.-Special:
The tense situation that has existed
along the Mexican border was re-
lieved today by receipt of private adj
vices from constitutionalists in Chi
huahua that the conferences between
General Carranza and Villa have re-
suited in agreement that the consti-
tutionalists should act merely as
spectators in the trouble between the
United States and Huerta, so long
as there is no armed American inva-
sion of constitutionalist territory.
The statements of President Wilson
and Secretary of State Bryan that
they are not making war on Mex
leans but upon Huerta, will be ac-
copied at their face value.
1--WE constituencies have known
all along that there were no differ
ences between Villa and Carranza,"
said Robert V. Pesquira, confidential
agent of General Carranza in Ell
Paso, land we have known all along
that both would do everything in
their power to maintain peace with
our very good friend and powerful
neighbor, the United States. knew
Carranza and Villa had no differ
ences to settle which would make
their meeting now of any particular
Importance"
When asked whether his chief had
accepted the "A. B. c." mediation
proposition, Pesquira replied:
"Carranza, as well as other mem
bers of his cabinet, is in absolute
accord with the object of the alliance
and will give it moral support"
