TWO CHOICES OR ONE
FOR JUDICIAL CANDIDATE
Suit Instituted in the Supreme Court
to Clear up Doubtful Point

Are voters compelled by law to in
dicate a choice for two candidates for
each judicial position at the coming
primary election, or is 1t left optional
with them to vote for two or one as
they wish?
Evidently this is question that
has bobbed up in the minds of citizens
in all parts of the state. The law
seems to be ambiguous on this point.
It says in so many words that each
elector is to vote for two candidates
for each position to be filled on the
supreme and district bench, but there
are grave doubts as to whether this
direction is mandatory or merely
suggestive.
Will Clear up the Point
To clear up this point Attorney
General Peterson has arranged to
have the question answered by the
supreme court. To this end friend
ly suit was filed in the supreme court
Monday. It Is entitled J. B. Eld-
ridge against Stephen Utter, auditor
and recorder for Ada county.
In this suit the court is asked to
issue an injunction against Mr.. Utter
and all his deputies and agents to pre-
vent them from issuing instructions
to voters to the effect that they are
to vote for twice as many judicial
candidates as there are positions to
be filed.
What Complaint Says
Among other things the complaint
filed with the court says:
THAT at the session of the legisla-
ture of the state of Idaho OF 1913
there was duly passed certain act
and statute providing for the so-called
non-partisan election of judicial Off
GERS, under the provision of which
statute it is attempted to prescribe
the nomination and election of dis
trict judges and justices of the sup
rene court without reference to any
political party and without providing
that the namessof candidates for such
offices shall be placed on said primary
ballot under any party designation,
and providing that said candidates
shall be placed upon said ballot un-
der no party designation, but under
the designation: Mon partisan judi
cial candidates"
Many have but one Choice
'Said act and statute further at
tempts to provide and prescribe that
voters at said primary election shall
vote for twice the number of candi-
dates for such judicial positions as
there are positions to be filled, and
Notwithstanding, so the plaintiff be
lieves and therefore alleges that there
are as many electors in the state of
Idaho in many districts of the state
who have but one choice for such
judicial positions as may be legally
filled at said election, said legislature
by said act has attempted to compel
such voters to vote for candidates
who are not candidates of their choice
and said act of said legislature has
thus attemped to subvert the will and
intention of the voters of teh state of
Idaho and to compel said voters to
vote for candidates whom they do not
favor for such positions.
Voters in Straight Jacket
THAT such act insofar as it at
tempts to subvert the true intention
and expressed will of the voter, as
aforesaid, is contrary to- the provision

First Regiment Officers

The officers of the First Regiment,
N. q. N. j., and guests held a beef
steak party in the beefsteak garnet
of Iff1land's restaurant in Market
street last night. Colonel John d.
Fraser acted as POSTMASTER. Stories
of camp life, bringing forth bursts of
laughter, were freely told, but in al
most every case the speaker wound
up his remarks in a serious vein and
commented on the present Mexico
situation in regard to the expectation
OF the First Regiment being called
out for active service.
Those who spoke were Colonel John
d. Fraser, POSTMASTER; Lieutenant
Colonel George NJ Butte, Lieuten-
ant-COlonel John M. Rogers, Lieu
tenant-Colonel David S. Hill, Major
Edward r. Chrisman Irregular army,
Major II. MacKie, Major Roland d.

BAN PUT ON "SNOWBALLS"
IN NEWARK THIS SUMMER
Health Board Also May Restrict Sale of hickey Pokey Pref
zes "Hot Dogs and Other Deicacies" Offered by Tim
Grant Vendors Here.

Hickey pokey ice cream" "snow-
balls" and the like will be practically
tabooed in Newark this summer.
Pretzels and "hot dogs" too, may
join in the funeral march. These
statements were made today by
Health officer David ID. Chandler.
Mr.. Chandler declared that a large
amount of the sickness among chill
dren in the summer could be traced
to the ice cream cone vendors and
SNOWFALL peddlers. The vendors of
"hot dogs and pretzels, too. are re-
sponsible, he said, but not so much
so as the other peddlers mentioned
The vendors will be reached this
year by the pure food law which pro-
hibits the sale of foodstuffs from
open baskets or Enclosed receptacles
OF any description. Last year an at
tempt was made to reach this class
OF vendors and have them prosecuted
because of an excess OF cgioring mat
ter in the fiavoring extracts used.
The health inspectors, however, could
not find enough evidence to prosecute
the vendors on this basis. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that more succe SIS
will be met with by Furnishing the
peddlers under the exposed food acts.
The ice-cream peddlers have the
cream covered up, but the cones and
crackers of which sandwiches are
made are invariably exposed. The
SNOWFALL vendors have the cakes of
ice exposed. The exposed articles coll
lect dust and germs of every descrip-

ton, it is pointed out by the health
inspectors, and these when intro
duced into the system of children
produce various types of disease.
These vendors may also be reached
under the new milk act, which con-
trolls and limits the sale of articles
and food stuffs made from milk or
It's byproductS. Some of the ice cream
sold by the street vendors Is made
under sickening and unsanitary con-
ditions. The milk law will check this
class of business. Last year large
quantities of ice cream crackers and
cone were dumped into lots and sew
ers by health inspectors toward the
end of the summer, where it was
found that the pure food laws were
being violated.
MIR. Chandler declared today that
there was probably 100 or more suits
pending against pretze1 and hot dog
vendors for selling their products
from an open basket. These suits will
all be pressed, he said. The guilty
ones will be fined or punished.
The sale of soda water from street
windows VIII also be checked where
violations are found, according to
Mr.. Chandler. In many places foun-
tains are built along side windows.
On warm days the windows are re-
moved and the soda is sold through
the window to people on the side
walk. The syrups and fruits are ex-
posed on the window ledge or counter
to dust in the street and become af-
feeted ass

MUCH IRONY in SOME
PARTISAN POLITENESS

The Partisan Is proverbially polite,
although he may, and often does, i'm
part flavor of ironical mischief to
his courtesy. The following incident
is typically Partisan.
1t is the custom In the French cap
ital for the cook to do all the market
ing. This adds considerably to the
cooks income, for every dealer al
lows her about l cent on every 20
cents that she spends. So French
cooks insist on their marketing
prerogative, and the mistress who
denies it to them is held to be a very
mean person.

Politics in France.

Americans generally know as little
about French politics as Frenchmen
know about ours. Issues, methods
and parties in the two countries are
radically different. In France parties
are so many In number and so small
in membership that they are usually
designated as groups rather than as
parties. 1t is always necessary to
combine the forces of three or more
of them to constitute a majority in
the Chamber of Deputies, and that
can be done only by giving each
group a representation in the cabinet.
The parliamentary system of France
resembles that of Great Britain in
this: When the chamber gives a vote
adverse to the ministry, the ministry
resigns. But that means only that
new alliance is formed that includes
groups other than those represented
in the retiring ministry. AS con-
sequence it usually happens that some
members of the defeated cabinet are
retained in the cabinet that succeeds
it-Youth'S Companion.

MEXICAN INCIDENCE HAS
AFFECTED ITS HISTORY

Mexican incidence has always had
something to do with making Next
can national history" said traveller.
Mexico has a class of natives called
1eaners' from their habit of leaning
against the side of a building to roll
a cigarette Once in this position the
leaner adheres to it for hours.
Tradition declares that q Mexican
leaner once sued an American rail-
road builder for pulling down a
building against which the plaintiff
had been leaning. Damages were
awarded for severe shock and incon-
venience, and the court took occasion
to recommend a law requiring one
hours notice under similar circum-
stances.
Mexican military forces are TO
some extent recruited from leaners.
Mexican history has record of an in
surgent force which was being pushed
forward VIGOROUSLY when it came
to a stream which had swollen over

Plan to Bring Hennessy
Home Rule Act to Courts

TRENTON, April 2S.-Plans to have
the courts construe the Hennessy
"home rule" act, which has resulted
in complicating the government of
commission-ruled cities, will be dis
cussed tomorrow morning at O con-
ference between Governor Fielder and
the committee appointed at the meet
ing last Friday of tn legal advisers
of municipalities that have adopted
the Walsh act.
This committee, which is composed
of John Milton, of Jersey City;
Charles Z. Bird, of Trenton; Albert
o. Miller, of Passaie; Theodore
Schimpf, of Atlantic City, and Louis
H. Miller, of Millville, was appointed
for the purpose of devising ways and
means of clearing up the situation
precipitated by the enactment of the
Hennessy law, and Governor Fielder
has been asked into conference.
Several ways have been suggested
of bringing the question before the
courts, and it is more than likely
something definite will be agreed upon
at the conference tomorrow, as 1t
was the prevalent opinion at the City
Council meeting that the situation
was so tense that relief should be
forthcoming as soon as possible.

Commander Buchanan, of the
Florida, made an inspection tour
through it. There was great surprise
among the MeXicans who had gath
cred there that the prisoners were
not released. They had been accus-
toned to seeing the victor always re-
lease prisoners and then impress
them all into his army.
Chief of Police Antonio Villavicen-
clio was taken prisoner by the Ameri-
cans shorely after they had occupied
the main plaza of the city. 1t was
suggested to him that he continue in
his official capacity to direct the city's

frightened mayor made up his mind
to accede to Admiral Fletcher's sug-
gestion, which was made through
Consul Canada, the Mexicans might
have been spared the humiliation OF
being forced from their positions and
undoubtedly a number of lives would
nct have been sacrificed.
Coincident with the orders for the
general advance of the Americans an
nged white-haired Mexican carrying
the white flag of truce, came down
a street from the centre of the city,
He carried letter to the chief of
police, the only authority he hoped
to reach, and desired Consul Canada
TO read it. 1t was an urgent appeal
to the chief of police to call off the
shippers and prevent the lombard

continued their execution, Even be-
fore the messenger had climbed the
stairs into the consuPs office Captain
Rush was informed of the contents of
the note he bore, and Immediately
sounded cease firing and "halt."
But Ii was too late. The action had
been begun all along the line, and it
was not considered wise to attempt
further measures to stop 1t. The COM
manders ordered their men forward

out with a Vigor that afterwards
gave them the city.
