whether intoxicating liquor is there,
without evidence of it's being sold or
illegally disposed Of is such wide
departure from what has heretofore
been considered citizens inalienable
rights that to authorize such search
and to justify an officer in making
such. search and issuing such war
rant the legislature would be COM
PEELED to be explicit and certain in all
| its directions to such officers
Our constitution provides that the
citizens of the state shall be protect
ed against unreasonable searches and
seizures. The provision of the con-
stitution referred to is as follows:
"'The right of the people to be Sc
cure in their persons, papers, and eff
fleets against unreasonable searches
and seizures shall not be violated;
and no warrant shall issue without
probable cause shown by affidavit
particularly describing the place to be
be searched.
'This provision OF the constitution
has been almost uniformly construed
to prevent violation of mans home,
except under most extraordinary cir
cumstances and under specific and
direct legislative direction. This pro-
vision would have the effect, | am sat
isfied, of causing our court to look
strictly into the right of an officer to
search the home of a citizen or resi-
dent of this state and, as stated above,
no specific authority or direction is
given, but on the contrary, the en-
actment of chapter 10, session laws OF
1911, would seem to imply beyond
question that the legislature intended
searches to be had only in cases in
volving other than private residences.
1t must be understood that what is
here said has reference to private
residences only, and would not apply
to a dwelling house that had been
converted into saloon or was being
used for that purpose.
II conclude, therefore, first, that
no magistrate or officer in the state
has authority, under senate bill so,
so-called, to issue a search warrant
for the purpose Of searching private
residence in the absence of evidence
that liquor is being sold or Illegally
of therein or therefrom; and
that any search warrant at
.empted to be issued under these cir
would be a legal nullity
md would afford no protection to an
officer acting Hereunder"

News of the death at Lewiston at

LATEST OPINION
ON LIQUOR LAW
ATTORNEY GENERAL PETERSON
DEFINES QUESTION OF SEARCH
AND SEIZURE
Upsets Dope on Senate Bill 5O-Res-
Mence Safe Unless Traffic
Pronounced

BOISE, Ida, Nov. 27.-(Special)- -
Because of numerous inquiries as to
the duty of peace officers and prose-
cutors in enforcing the new liquor
first of the year and commonly re-
ferred to as senate bill No. SO, At
toTney- General Peterson has issued
a statement bearing upon the search
of private residences in which he de-
clares that no such search could be
legally made unless there we're ad-
vance evidence of violation of the law
and that any search warrant attempt
ed to be issued under these circum-
stances would be a legal nullity and
would afford no protection to the Of
ficer acting hereunder" The attor-
generals statement in part is as
follows.
'This inquiry has raised very
grave and serious question through
out the entire state, and it for the
purpose of giving such officers the
benefit of what conceive I'd be the
law and avoiding future legal entan-
elements, and perhaps personal vio-
lence, that / feel impelled to give my
views in the matter this publicity.
Senate bill 80 makes the posses
sion of intoxicating liquor in the state
of Idaho a misdemeanor, and there is
no question but what this possession
extends to private residence as well
as a place of business.
"The question naturally recurs,
therefore, whether an officer in the
preparation of case might apply to
a magistrate to issue search war
rant for the purpose Of searching a
private residence to procure evidence
of the illegal possession of liquor In
the absence of any showing OF the
ILLEGAL sale of such liquor in or from
such residence.
Senate bill so provides (Sec. 23)
that the provisions of chapter 15,
SESSION.
cifically extended to and made appli-
cable in the enforcement of this act.
Chapter Is, referred to, is what is
known in this state as the search and
seizure act and was intended to make
effective the liquor law of the state
as enacted at that time.
tsThis act provided, among other
things for the issuance of search
warrants, but solely for the purpose
of searching premises where evidence
was at hand showing that intoxicat-
ing liquor was being illegally disposed
of therein, and had no reference to
the question of the possession of in
toxicating liquor in a private resi-
dence which was. not being sold or
illegally disposed of.
1T would seem, therefore, that to
specifically re-enacting this portion OF
the 1911 law, and making no directI(
provision for the issuance of search I
warrants for searching residences
where no evidence is at hand tending (
to show the illegal sale Of liquor, that r
the legislature had no intention OF

1ences under these circumstances, and +
