LUNCHEON IS HELD
BY INSURANCE MEN

eral- elect-Thrift Is His
Theme.

7. A. Walters, attorney general
elect of Idaho, addressed Il group of
Gem State Life underwriters at a spe-
cia1 luncheon at the Owyhee hotel at
noon today. He pointed out that the

for the purpose of doing the things
that are best for the greatest num-
Der of people and spoke of the rise
and fall of different nations, accord
ing to the altar upon which they
builded. He especially emphasized the
pillar of thrift as one of the greatest
assets of the citizenship of any nation.

one-fourth of the population carried
100000, 100000 of life insurance, which
was more than carried by the remain
der of the inhabitants of the entire
world and that it bespoke of the thrift
and foresight of it's citizens. Twenty
thousands of the inhabitants of the
United States, he declared owned their
own homes free of incumbrance, an
other instance which pointed to its
thrift.
Life insurance, he said, was on a

marked by time. He declared that peo-
pie were glad of the passing of the
shyster in life insurance business as
well as in the law business.

QUESTION OF HOMES
BEING CONSIDERED
Those Interested in Measure
Not Sure It Would Be
Possible to Enforce Rigid
Search and Seizure Pro
vision.

| the liquor law which will undoubt-
eddy be passed by the next Utah leg
islature is being considered by mem
bers-elect of the legislature and prohi-
bition leaders,
! 1t is announced in the Salt Lake
Herald Republican that the bill as
now framed is not so drastic as the
Idaho law, but those who have exam
ined it declare it is so provisioned that
the manufacture and sale of intoxcat-
ing liquors in Utah will be RICHLY
prohibited"
WHAT BILL PROVIDES.
1t Is proposed that the new law shall
go into effect Aug. 1. 1917 The Salt
Lake paper says
THE bill is drawn more on the lines
of revenue measure than a penal
statute, as the licensing Of saloons.
breweries and distilleres is considered
under the law to be a revenue meas
ure. The bill takes away from city
commissions and councils the right to
grant licenses for the manufacture or
sale of intoxicating liquors and repeals
the local option law of 1909. All laws
relating to the liquor traffic and its
regulation are repealed by the bill
The measure provides that no one
shall give away or offer to give to
another any intoxicating drink, and
that extracts of all kinds which contain
alcohol shall be sold under certain reg
ulations only
CRoSSBORDER TRAFFIC.
THE matter of stopping the traffic
across state lines is gone iato III
length and the cornmon carrier which
delivers shipment of Intoxicating
liquors within the state is held respon
sibIe, and is subject to fine lndivid-
uals who bring liquors into the state
Tor unlawful purposes are subject to
both fine and Imprisonment, but TIL
penalties have not been decided. A
second offense, however, will be mud
felony if a number of those inter-
ested in the bill have their way about
it.
LIQUOR IN THE HOMES.
THE matter of keeping intoxicating
liquors in ones home has been
stumbling block to the sponsors of the
bill. Lawyers interested are undecid
ed as to whether a drastic search and
seizure law, such as Idaho's, which
prohibits the keeping of intoxicating
liquors even in the home, could be en-
forced in this state.
The bill will exempt from It's pro-
vision fermented wines for sacrament
tai purposes and alcohol and deriya
tives of alcohol for mechanical and
manufacturing purposes"

New Variety of Fish.

We have all no doubt heard OF cat
FISH and dog fish, but horse fish is the
latest catch in our vicinity. A few
days ago as c. Z. Morrison and two
others were returning from a fishing
trip they spied some excellent grass
suitable for feed growing along the
roadside, which they decided to cut
and haul to town. One of the party
had thrown fish line and hook loose
IN the bottom of the spring wagon,
and the hay was thOughtlessly thrown
upon them Upon their arrival at the
Morrison home the hay was thrown
into the manger for the horse to eat.
The animal had not eaten long when
the men noticed that it began to choke.
Upon close examination a cord was
seen TO extend out of the horses
mouth. They Immediately caught
hold upon the line and began to pull.
TO their surprise the cord with the
hook at the end was easily extracted
from the animals throat In chew
ing the hay the horse had so bitten
upon the hook that it had curled up
so that it was rendered harmless.

an asset to their civil body. Aledo
with one-fifteenth that population now
has one. But, alas our new officer is
only a temporary one and probably
will not remain IL our midst for long.
He is a government man, requested
here by the city in consequence of a
few complaints regarding the break
ing of the speed laws upon the streets
of our city Be on the alert! lest
some night when you arrive at your
home in your car you discover this
motorcycle sleuth as having been
quite near you driving the return trip
home. He may brighten you by jump
ing out and yelling SLOW down." as
you are driving along the street; but
this can only be expected of a man
with such a mission as he has to per-
form. To pedestrians, the advice may
properly be given: Be careful where
you cross the street; you may narrow
~ escape a collision with a motor
cycle ridden by a man in khaki. We
hope that this cop may not remain
long enough to brighten many more
Aledoans.
