Wet or Dry

Whether Idaho is to be wet or
dry must now be decided by the
voters at the election of 1916, for
by a unanimous vote the house Of
representatives adopted Thursday
morning the Hart resolution SUBJ
mitting to the people the question
of statewide prohibition. The SEN
ate had already passed the resolu-
tion and it now goes to the voters.
A joint resolution proposing an a.
mendment to the constitution does
not require the signature of the
governor.
1t was by unanimous vote, and
with the rules suspended, that the
house expressed its approval of the
senate resolution. In the senate it
was acted on the previous day, also
under suspension of the rules, and
there was only one member, Senator
Whitcomb of Lemhi county, voted
against it.

the Probate Court, refusing to con-
firm the sale of some real property
from the estate of the late Jos. M.
Wild was reversed.
In the case Of the First Trust &
Savings Bank against Mary and H.

declaration and rented, the declar-
alton did not become void either as

value of the property not being in
excess of five thousand dollars.

Paper and Spud Mills

The brewery at Occur d'Alene is
being converted into a paper mill,
it being estimated that wood pulp
sufficient to run a paper mill almost
indefinitely can be obtained in that
vicinity. The brewery at Idaho
Falls is to be turned into a potato
pressing factory for the purposes of
utilizing culled potatoes by evapor-
alton into stock food-an industry
that has grown into large proper
tions in germany and which is being
successfully inaugurated in the
United States. Both of these brew
cries are located in counties which
have adopted prohibition under
local option.

HIT TO Be NEW
BANK EXAMINER

Boise, an.25.-The appointment
of G. R. Hit of Idaho falls, who
was selected to be state bank exam
iner by Governor Alexander, was
sent to the senate today for con-
firmation.
A. E. Reid rendered his resigna-
tion Saturday as state bank COM.
missioner. In giving notice of his
retirement Mr.. Reid asked that he
be relieved as soon as possible, in
view of the fact that he had ac-
cepted another position and wished
to take it as soon as possible. Ex-
cept that it is in the northern part
of the state, Mr.. Reid could not say
what his work was to be.
Immediately receiving the resig-
nation of Mr.. Reid, the governor
telegraphed to Mr.. Hit that his
appointment would be sent to the
senate Monday. 1t is not certain
that Mr.. Hit will accept the place.
He is at present cashier of Ander-
son Brothers Bank.
1t is believed that if Mr.. Hit
agrees to accept the place he will
name Eugene w. Pearce of Moscow,
assistant cashier of the FIRST Ma
tional bank of that place as deputy.

as its sponsors Representatives
Johnston, Koelsch, MCGOWAN, Shat

statewide primary for the nomina-
tion of national and state officers
and substitutes therefor the state
convention system, delegates to
which are to be elected under the
primary system and provides for
the nomination of all county candi-
dates at primary election. Its
sponsors claim it seeks to make the
system of nominating officers, coun-
ty state and national, more practi-
cal and less expensive.

A Tale of a Dollar Bill

A citizen went down to spend
Some of his hard earned dough,
And in merry jest, and just
To show his printing skill,
He printed his initials on
A brand new dollar bill.
He spent that dollar that same day.
Down in grocery store;
He thought twas gone forever then
And he'd see it no more.
But long before the year rolled by
One day he went to fill
A neighbors order and received
That same dollar bill.
Once more he spent that dollar bill
In, his own neighborhood.
Where it would do himself and
friends
The most amount of good.
Four times in two years it came
back,
AS some bad pennies will,
And each time he'd go out and
spend
That marked one dollar bill.
Had he been wise that dollar might
Be in town today;
But just two years ago
He sent it far away.
The people who received it then,
| know have got it still,
For twas a mail order house
He sent his dollar bill.
No more will that marked dollar bill
Come into this citizens town,
And never more will it help to pay
The taxes he planks down.
He put it where it never can
Its work in life fulfill;
He brought about the living death
Of that one dollar bill. -Ex.

ABIDE TOGETHER.

when endeavoring to add another
name to our subscription list, we
are met so frequently with the re-
mark 1--WE are taking fifteen or
twenty papers and magazines, and
do not have time to read all of
them" This leaves us to infer that
it would be useless to press them
further, also that our home paper
is considered the least important of
of the number and the last one to
be read.
There is something radically
wrong with such people. AS near
as we can diagnose the case, we
have come to the conclusion ninety
nine per cent of them have heart
disease, and the remaining one per
cent just plain knockers. The symp-
toms show their heart is everywhere
but in the community in which
their heart dwells; that the spirit
conceded so essential to live town,
and which makes for push and pro-
gress of their community, is low to
marked degree; and denotes
strong tendency to commit Sears
Roebuckocide.
And some people wonder why
our town don't grow.
In justice to themselves, they
should take their frames to the
community where their heart
abides, and when there, abide to-
gether and push. in that way some
community may benefit.
But don't let your town paper be
the twenty-first paper you subscribe
fort should be the first, even
though it is small and Of few pages
and the price many times more
than some of the papers of distant
cities. The town paper is for its
town and its neighborhood. 1t is
always ready to advance it in every
conceivable way, and in these ways
increases the value of your proper
ty. No other of your twenty pa
pers care penny for your town,
while your town paper is carrying
on alone its fight for progress, and
gives you the service no other pa
per attempts.
Subscribe for three or six months
and lend your encouragement, but
never so far forget yourself as to
confess that you are taking so many
other papers that you cannot find
time to read your own town paper
