The evening was concluded with
"Blue-belI'' songs, refreshments and
a grand or rather mystic march and
song. Three cheers for Mandal

That the people of Idaho
made a grave mistake when
they amended the constitution
so as to give each county a
representative in the upper
branch of the legislature, is
now quite apparent. With a
population of something like
100000 the state now has 81
counties, and the next legisla-
ture will therefore be com
posed of that number of sena-
tors and sixty odd representa-
tives, which are enough law
makers for a state witha pop
ulation of a million or more.
And until the constitution is
amended, or a new one adopt
ed, the membership of the leg
islature will continue to in
crease during the next ten
years out of proportion to the
population, for within that
period we look for the crea-
ton of at least four more new
counties. With such a need
less number of law makers, it
is no wonder that our statutes
are burdened with useless
laws.
