Industrial Education.

In England, as well as in this coun.
try, manufacturers are taking a lively
interest in Industrial education. A
scholarship and an exhibition have
been founded at the University OF
leeds for the purpose of giving the
holders a training such as will enable
them to assist in the development of
the industry. A sum of about $22, 800
has been placed in trust for the pur-
pose by two Whitehaven manufac-
turers engaged in the leather and coal
industries, and this will provide a
scholarship Of the annual value of
$3.50.

DESTROYERS HUNT

Officials Believe That Shipmasters
May be Supplying Belligerent
Ships at Sea

WASHINGTON, Oct. ia f1otilla
of American destroyers is securing
the Atlantic coast hunting for naval
base which it is suspected the Eu-
ropean beliigerent governments are
maintaining, Secretary Daniels an
nounced today.
Admiral Mayo, commanding the
Atlantic fleet, ordered the destroyers
from Newport yesterday. They will
search the entire coast as far north
as Eastport, Maine, close to the Can
adian line.
Secretary Daniels said, There Is nc
reason to believe that any belligeren,
nation is maintaining a base on this
shore. During the last year, when
ever the existence of any such base
has been suspected, we have always
ordered destroyers out to hunt it,
Officials believe that Canadian
American, and Spanish shipmasters
may be supplying belligerent vessels
at sea. 1t is reported that agents OF
the treasury and department of JUS
tice are cooperating in the search.

MERCHANT DEAD
II. c. Mcfarland Was Formerly in
Business Here-BodY iW1I be Inter-
red In Moscow Cemetery-FoHr
Children Survive

Friends in Moscow we're yesterday
notified of the death of H. G. McFar-
land in San Diego, Cal, on October 8.
The body is expected to arrive in Mos
COW either Saturday or Sunday morn
ing and the funeral will be held on the
afternoon of the day the body arrives.
The funeral procession will form at
1880 o'clock at the Grice chapel, pro-
ceeding to the Moscow cemetery
where interment will take place. The
only service will be at the grave.
MIR. Mcfarland came to Moscow
about thirty years ago and resided
here continuously until the time of
the death of his wife, ten years ago.
Since that time he has lived at the
Old Soldiers home in San Diego where
his death occurred.
He was for number of years
hardware merchant in the city, and he
and his wife figured prominently in
the early social life and development
of the city. He was a member of the
Presbyterian church. Four children
survive, three sons, Fred, Frank, and
Arthur Mcfarland and two daughters,
Mrs. Sherman Wahl of Genesee, and
daughter living on the coast.

SOME DISPLEASED
WITH AMENDMENT
Lewiston Tribune Says Some Fear
Present Stringent Liquor Laws VIII
Be Weakened by Its Enactment

! Prohibition has been a very definite
years-many believe the dominating
one-and of course is again factor
this year. However, interest along that
| line in the present campaign is center
| ing largely in the constitutional
amendment that is to be voted upon,
which aims to make Idaho constitu-
tionally dry. 1t has developed during
the past few days that many dry en-
thusiasts are not very enthusiastic
over the terms of the amendment, with
the suggestion even that it contains a
"nigger in the wood pile" and that
its provisions would weaken the pres
ent dry statute. For instance, Lafe
Williams prominent in the fight for
Idaho prohibition for number of
years, is inclined to hold such view
Here is the way the amendment reads:
From and after the first day of
May in the year 1917, the manufac-
ture, sale. keeping for sale, and trans
portation for sale of intoxicating
liquors for beverage purposes are for
ever prohibited. The legislature shall
enforce this section by all needful
legislation"
Mr. Williams calls attention to the
fact that the only prohibition against
liquor in the amendment applies to
"the manufacture, keeping for sale
and transportation for SALE" with no
prohibition against having liquor in
the possession, The present dry stat
ute makes having liquor in possession
a crime, so the constitutional amend
ment is weaker than the statute.
However, the supreme court, with
out the constitutional amendment now
has held the present statute
courts follow election returns, it is
felt in dry circles that the new dry
will be found adequate
and that possession will continue to
be crime so far as the supreme court
is concerned if anybody cares to take
a case there. In the meantime, how
ever the public does hot seem to be
worrying-Idaho is a prohibition state
by stern statute that would put stripes
un the men who possess liquor here
and so of course there is no drinking |
in Idaho-not a drop.-Lewiston |
Tribune.
