AUTOS COME UNDER
TERMS OF NEW LAW

That automobiles are operated rs
common carriers in the state of Idaho
especially on stage lines and will come
under the provisions of the bill passed
by the last legislature and now pend
ing before the governor for his sigma
ture, is evident from a communication
received today by the public utilities
commission. 1t is from j. w Reece Of
Twin Falls who operates an automo-
bile stage between Twin Falls, Jerome
and Shoshone. He says that competi-
tors are in sight who plan to duplicate
his stage line operating cars during
certain seasons of the year and not all
the year as he is doing and wants to
know if the commission has not some
jurisdiction in the matter
The bill now before the governor
places automobiles run regularly over
established routes under the iurisdfc-
ton of the public utilities commission
as common carriers and gives the COM
mission jurisdiction over them and au-
thority to regulate their conduct.

Stockmen Will Suffer Sc
verely Unless There Is a
Sudden Change in the
Weather or Hay Secured.
CONFERENCE HELD
ON THE SITUATION
Public Utilities Commission
Asked to Act and Oregon
Short Line Appealed to to
See if Relief Can Be
Given.

Cattle and other stock in southern
Idaho. particularly in the southeast
ern section. are actually diving from
starvation and unless hay can be
found to feed them, or there is sud
den break in the cold weather so they
can pasture, owners stand to lose
thousands if not hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
This is the story that |. n. Nash,
former state land appraised, now To-
Gated at Preston, brings to Boise lie
held a confer nee with the public utili-
ties commission and with Joel l..
Priest, Idaho agent of the Oregon
Short Line railroad, to see if some
thing could not be done to bring re-
lief The situation he says is more
critical than many people imagine. He
has seen stock dying along the road
way and knows that thousands of
head arc starving.
The report given by Mr. Nash is
the same report heard from many 9th
er stockmen. They all agree that the
situation is getting desperate
HAY GOES AT PREMIUM.
II have seen hay sold within the past
few days at as high as $50 a ton, with
plenty of bidders" said Mr.. Nash.
"Stockmen win pay almost amy price
for hay. but they cannot find it to
buy They are feeding their grain,
tearing down their old straw barns and
utilizing everything at hand for feed.
The great cry in our part of the state
is for something to eat for the stock.
Conditions have never been such as
they are now. Men are securing the
country trying to buy hay at any
price"
THE present conditions were brought
about by the fact that many farmers
used their fields last fall to grow grain
where they had been growing hay
Grain was bringing a big price and
there was a heavy demand. This helped
cause the shortage. The acreage in
hay was not as great. Then frosts
killed off part of the hay crop and that
made it shorter Added to this came
the severe and almost unprecedented
winter. The snow in our section Of
the state is three feet deep today and
packed solid. 1t will be some time be-
fore there will be pasture of any kind.
HEAVY CONSUMPTION OF HAY.
THE long winter season resulted in
heavy consumption of hay. When the
hay started to give out straw was fed
