That the illicit manufacture of whiskey- "moonshining" will be the next phase of the boot
 logging business is the expecta
 tion of Tucson officers, who be- lieve that bootleggers will make the adjacent mountain ranges their habitat. The officers ad- init that if the moonshiners are of the same class who have, with the aid of revenue officers, made the hunting of clandestine dis tillers one of the most exciting of pastimes in the south, the new phase of the war against bootleggers will resuire a con siderable force of deputies and a large annual appropriation Star

c., Sunday evening at $50. Death
was caused by heart disease.
Senator Brady was 55 years of age
last June He was born in Indiana
county, Pa, in 1862, but spent his boy
hood and his first years as young
man in Kansas. He was graduated
from the Olathe, Kansas, high school

To List Men Reaching 81

The government has decided on
draft registration of all young men as
fast as they become 81 years old as
the means of keeping filed the ranks
of the war army. 1t has decided
against raising the draft age limit
above 81 years. An administration
bill was introduced today, at the re-
quest of the war department, by
Chairman Chamberlain of the senate
military committee, to register for
draft all men who have reached 21
since June 5, 1917, when the draft law
became effective. The administra-
tion's support seems to assure its
prompt passage. The bill agrees with
the recent recommendations of Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder. Other
administration bills introduced today
by Chairman Chamberlain at the re-
quest of the War department will sup
plement the draft law to make it
workable under conditions that have
developed. One would permit fur
loughing of national army units for
harvest work or other civilian duty;
another would eliminate enemy alien
from basis of calculations
for draft quotas by making the basis
for each state the number of men
available in class one.

ton. Donovan announced that sever
al hundred cars had been rolled into
Texas during the late fall and winter.
A shortage of cars is making it hard
for the Idaho haygrowers to ship out
their alfalfa, although the situation
has improved some of late. The mar
kets bureau will send an Idaho man
to Texas, Monday, to handle the sales
of hay in that state. Heretofore the
farmers have been consigning their
hay to the purchasers with a sight
draft attached to the bill of lading.
Many of the buyers have failed to pay
the prices originally agreed upon
that the hay was not of the
best quality. By sending a man to
Texas to collect and settle differences
that arise, the markets bureau hopes
to improve marketing conditions. He
will maintain markets bureau in Aus

MAY Be WAR SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE
If Called, Session Will Be Re-
stricted to Consideration of
War Measures

| ne pOSSlDlllly Oh an extra session
of the Fourteenth Idaho legislature
to principally consider war measures,
looms bigger every day. Governor
Alexander is not as yet ready to COM
nit himself on the matter. 1t is known
that he has received requests from
all parts Of Idaho to convene the
legislature in session extraordinary.
1t is realized legislation is needed to
better equip Idaho for the war. The
Legislature in regular session did not
make an appropriation to meet war
activities These have been handi-
capped because of lack of funds. One
of the prime purposes of convening
such session, if called, will be for
the purpose of clothing the state coun-
ell of defense with more powers and
providing the necessary funds for it
to carry on it's work. The plan adopt
ed when the council was reorganized
was the only plan available, viz: is
suing certificates of Indebtedness TO
finance it. The bank of the state are
patriotically carrying these certifi-
Gates. The council has big work
before it to properly organize Idaho
so that it can put every pound of
energy behind the nation in the war
for the preservation of civilization.
The State Council of Defense, Tues
day, asked the governor to call spe
cial session of the legislature at the
earliest possible date for the purpose
of enactiffg needed war legislation.
No promises have been made the coun-
ell by the governor, but in speech de-
livered by him before the organiza-
ton early in the day he outlined sug-
gestions which can be carried into eff
feet only by legislative enactment.
The governors talk before the coun-
Gil was accepted by that body as
message and the thoughts that he ex-
pressed were incorporated in a re-
port returned few hours later by the
legislative committee and adopted by
the council.
The mutual understanding between |
the council and the states chief exc
cutive gives rise to the belief that he
will call special session of the legis-
lature before the end of this month.
He said in an interview late in the
afternoon that he wished little time
in which to think over the recon-
that had come to him
from the council before announcing
what action he expected to take.
Consideration of the following ques-
tions for legislative action have been
by the governor:
Finance the council of defense.
Means for state protection (mili-
tary).
Conscription of labor.
Means to combat venereal disease.
Soldiers protection on loans.
Financial aid to wives and mothers
IF soldiers.
Prevention of food boarding for
speculative purposes.
Census of men and women.
Close amusement halls during la
,or hours.
Finance university extension depart
nent to direct increase of food pro- ,
luction.
To finance farmers to procure seed :
rain.
