NORTH IDAHO
WOULD CECEDE.
Proposal to Remove State Educa-
tional Institutions Net BY
State Division Plan.

As a result Of the proposed pro-
gram in the legislature for the
consolidation of the state educa-
tional institutions By removal of
the University to South Idaho and
the placing of the Lewiston State
Normal in the University build
ings at Moscow, the North Idaho
delegation, led by Senator Jack
son, of Bonner, has come forward
with strong protest in the form
of an enabling act whereby the
north end might vote itself free of
the south part of the state. A mea-
sure proposed by Senator Walker,
of Boundary, would provide that
North Idaho join with western
Montana and eastern Washington
in the formation of the state Of
Lincoln with Spokane as the capi-
tol.
The argument in favor of the
consolidation of the educational
institutions as well as for the di-
vision Of the state is the inaeees-
sibilify of one end of the state
from the other. This major rea-
son would be practically remov-
ed by the building Of proper
north and south state highway.
