BOISE, JAM 3O.-The position ta-
ken by State Senator Jerome j. Day
of Latah county with relation to the
introduction in the senate the other
day of an amendment in the Hart res
olution which he offered clause for
Insertion with a view of icatching
"bootleggers," is the subject of no
little comment around the legislative
halls and the lobbies of the hotels and
many now express themselves as re-
GREETING that the amendment did not
carry. The wisdom of Senator Days
amendment is best emphasized in an
editorial appearing in the Idaho Daily
Statesman of Friday morning, January
%, which is as follows:
In the light of Idaho's probable ex-
perience with prohibition the wisdom
of the proposal made by Senator Day
of Latah county that there be mini
mum placed upon the amount OF
liquor that may be available for per-
sonal use will be brought home some
time to the public generally with ap-
spealing force.
The constitutional amendment sub
mitted by the legislature does not for
bid the transportation of liquor ex-
cepting for sale, and no enactment to
carry out the provision Of the amend
ment, if it shall be adopted can pro-
hibit transportation for private use.
In suggesting that the amount OF
liquor that could be legally in the
possession of an individual during
any 3O-day period be specified, Sena-
tor Day looked toward a diminution
of 'bootlegging" and also to the pro-
lection from blackmail and harrass-
ment of honest citizens who may take
advantage of the constitutional per-
mission to ship in liquors.
It would have been better, in our
opinion, if the Day amendment had
been incorporated in the proposed
amendment. The people
would have known exactly what they
were voting on and a source of doubt
as to the character Of the law to be
enacted, following adoption of the
would have been swept
aside.

BOISE, Jan. 30-The Lewiston Live
Stock appropriation measure calling
for the state expenditure of $4,000 is
due for passage in the senate because
it is felt that measure voices the senti-
ments of the live stock interests of
Idaho. 1t is believed the house will
also show a disposition to favor the
BILL The attitude of the senate was
revealed in a motion to commit it to
the committee of the whole, which was
voted down. The bill, if it reaches
the governor will call for serious con-
sideration by that official; and it is
believed the representations made by
some of the most prominent citizens
of the state, irrespective of locality,
in a call on the governor, will have
great weight with him.
