DRASTIC BONE DRY
 BILL IS AMENDED
House Rejects Section Penalizing the Possession of Intoxicating LiquOr-COnsidered
 too Severe.

yesterday adopted an amendment to the Greathouse-Ponder bone dry bill, which eliminates from it's provisions that which would have made it un- lawful to have in possession any of the intoxicating liquors prohibited by the bill. The amendment strikes out the following clause:
 "Or for any person to have in his possession any of the said liquors except as provided in Section IT."
 Section F of Act 13 of 1917, pro- viding the exemptions for both the pending Senate bill and the Talking ton bill which passed the House. is as follows
 That nothing in this act shall make it unlawful for any priest or minister of any religious denomina- tion or sect to order and have ship ped and delivered, wine for sacra- mental purposes; nor for any con- | mon carrier, corporation or person to ship, transport, carry or deliver wine for said purposes to any priest or minister of any religious denomina- tion or sect; for any person, firm or institution to have shipped and have delivered alcohol for strictly medici nal or mechanical purposes; but rec ords shall be kept by the carrier ol l-delivering party of all such wines fo, sacramental purposes and all such al cohol, and statement thereof shall bt filed with the clerk of the Circui Court within ten days after such de l livery
 TaikingtOn Bill Explained.
 MT. Talkington, representative from White county, gave the following statement explaining the purpose O. his bill:
 "The bill does not add any restric tiOns whatever to the law with ref erence to patent or proprietary medi cines. The bill has for it's object tho curing of the defect pointed out b, the Supreme Court last year in the bone dry law enacted by the 1917 leg islature.> It was held by the Supreme Court in the Rivard and other case: recently decided, that the bone dry statute of 1917 does not prohibit the bringing of liquor into the state un less it is brought in for the pur , pose of being delivered to another person than the person bringing ii in; and that it is not a violation O. the 1917 statute for a person to bring in liquor for himself, although ht may do soy for the purpose of boot logging it after he gets it in the state. The Talkington bill, in plain simple language, incapable of being misunderstood or of having more thar one construction placed upon it, makes it unlawful for any person, firm o1 corporation to bring into this state ] for any purpose whatsoever any kint or ardent, vinOus, malt, fermented spurious, alcoholic or intoxicating liq uors, or any compound or preparation | thereof whatsoever; provided tha nothing in this act shall in any way impair the provisions of Section T. of the bone dry law"

PORT IDAHO SYSTEM FOR
NORTHWEST.

Discussion at the meeting of the
State Horticultural association held
here last Saturday, conferred in the
discrepancy between Idaho fruit grad
ing regulations and those of other
states. Particular reference was made
to the difference between the Idaho
grades and those of Washington, the
latter permitting the marketing of
inferior apples graded on a par with
those of Idaho whose quality was
much superior.
Following general thrashing out
of the situation, the delegates to the
northwest apple conference to be held
in Spokane, Dec. Is, were instructed
to urge upon that body the adoption
of uniform grading rules. Idaho
grades, believed at the local meeting
to be the best obtainable, were sug-
gested to the Idaho delegates as
model upon which to work at the Spo-
kane conferencet
Good Attendance.
Attendance at the meeting was fair,
considering the short space of time
elapsing between the call and the
meeting. Practically every leading
fruit grower of this section was pres
ent as was H. T. Lyon, director OF
farm markets under whose supervision
the apple grading work comes.
Idaho laws relating to horticulture
were approved at the meeting and &C
ton taken calling upon the state of
ficials to rigidly enforce all regula-
tons, particularly those with refer
ence to spraying and the eradication
of insects. F. M. Hutchins of the u.
S. bureau of biological survey, who
has just concluded an inspection of
Canyon county orchards accompanied
by +. T. Bennett of the University of
Idaho extension division, reported
that conditions in this section were
improving so far as insects and scale
were concerned.

Seven delegates to the Spokane
conference were selected. Two others

urged every fruit grower from south

to attend the Spokane conference,
whether a delegate or not.

runs like this:

further and drive politics out of con-

takes all the joy out of voting. Who

most of the candidates they run now

the sober vote to elect them, they are
