 Ford Leaves Next Week
 As to Mir Ford. he will leave today week. He is winding up his affairs here rapidly. He will leave only after some token of the peoples appreciation of him has been given and made public. There are said to be plans afoot to do him honor. With MT. Ford and MT. Harding both leaving Birmingham is decidedly the loser. No one can estimate the good they did here individually. MT. Ford has always taken an active part in civic af fairs He has been signally honored at home. In seven years he has been made the recipient of unusual local honors. Few of them came to him by reason of his position. Most of them came by req son of his willingness to work in single or double harness. Taken by and large Mir. Ford has made the best people of this town like him even though was president of public utility company

There being come misunder-
standing as to the manner in
which Idaho can become "dry" in
1915, Mr.. W. j. Herwig, superin
tendent of the anti saloon league
in recent interview, stated that
voting on a constitutional amend
ment by the people, submitted by
a previous Legislature, will not be
necessary this year, but may come
later. He says the legislature
which is elected this fall and
meets the first month in 1914 has
the authority and power to make
the state dry, without an election
by the people, and that this is the
method decided on by the tenn
perance forces. Of course it will
be necessary to select only such
representatives to the Legislature
who will support bill Of the kind
and it is for this reason that the
temperance issue will be brought
to thu front during the campaign
this fall.
