WILL OPPOSE
CONVENINC
SOLONS
Governor Davis viii Not Call
Special Session Until
Shown the Necessity.

The word is given out from Boise
that the action of the university wo-
men and women's clubs Of the state
to bring about an extra session Of the
legislature will result in failure unless
Governor Davis can be convinced that
such procedure is absolutely necessary
for the safety of the suffraEge move
ment The statement reads as fol-
lows:
It is not likely that the special ses-
sion of the Idaho legislature will be
called, however, unless the college
girls and other women Of the state
are able to convince Governor Davis
that it is necessary and win him to
their side. The governor is not in
cliEed at this time to summon the
solons. OF course, in the event 1t
became imperative to have Idaho's
vote to assure safety of the amend
ment, he would order the special ses-
in any particular danger. In fact the
necessary two thirds vote will be Sc
cured without any trouble. the COVER
ror and others believe. Other states
which were planning special sessions
have abandoned the idea at this time.
There is no question but that the
Idaho legislature would ratify thu
amendment by a practically unani
nous vote. That seems to be con
ceded. There is not the slightes
prospect of a fight over ratification
ard as long as the two-thirds vote il
assured the governor sees nothing t.
worry about. Idaho can ratify in reg
ular order when tile legislature con
venes a year from now, it is held.

Highway Men Obtain National
Support on Plan Affect
ing Large Area.
AFFECTS62 PER CENT
Of States Area Held BY Fed
eral Government-Great
Forward Movement.

Through the efforts of w. J. Hall,
commissioner of public works for the
state OF Idaho, and Engineer Gillette
of New Mexico, backed by all the west
ern states, a resolution was adopted
at the recent meeting of the American
Association Of State Highway officials
at Louisville, KY, which will bring TO
bear on congress pressure to obtain
new and easier basis under which the
states with large areas Of public lands
will cooperate with the federal gov
ernment in building public roads thru
the public lands, states recent press
dispatch.
AS the startling total of 62 per cent
of Idaho lands are held by the federal
government this readjustment, should
congress heed the combined demands
of highway officials of the country
will mean a great forward movement
in the construction of highways into
districts cow without transportation
communication.
EHccJ Oh EIhH.
The resolution which would bring
this readjustment about asks congress
to relieve the public land states by In
creasing the amount of federal aid al
lotted them so that the state may CO
operate on building roads for only 80
per cent OF the federal lands instead
of on all of the lands as now provided.
In Idaho this would mean so per cent
of 81 per cent, which is 81 per cent of
the lands in the state Idaho would
cooperate with the federal govern
ment, therefore, on 81 per cent Of the
cost of a particular piece of road
through public lands, ranging from 81
per cent as a minimum up to so per
I cent as a maximum.
I Another resolution of Importance,
. which will hasten the connection OF
p main highway systems pr vides that
federal aid in county shall not bt
G extended on branch roads until the
I main highways are completed. A com
panion resolution provides that ad-
jacent states must connect at theil
highways and at their borlers, the oh
ject being to provide a through trans
n continental highway system, north ard
?. south, east and west.
Better Standards.
Colonel d. p. Olson, Idaho stat
e Highway director, who also attende,
ID the Louisville meeting and took an Inn
pOrtant part in its proceedings, spOI
sored resolution recommending tina
congress appropriate separate and ad
IT ditional post road aid funds for roa6
rs Oh federal lands and lands adjacent
II and recommending that standards
~ raised for forest roads which are par
90 of the main state highway systems.
IS Opposition from the east prevente
the putting through OF a resolution
change the basis of federal aid apo
tionment so that the west would get
er more equitable distribution of Il
Us funds based on areas instead of o
IT. population and areas and present mi

Bismarck, N D., Dec. 23-Some in

as the result of Investigations into the
methods of Townley and other leaders
Of the Non-partisan league. Loads of
facts connecting the league leaders
with the I. W. w. have been produced
Here is another well authenticated re
port:
John Jones, farmer, living in Nor

threshing. He was paying $50 an hour
for his threshing rig and 20 cents an
hour to the harvest hands.
Along came an I. w. w. organizer
made his way across the stubble field
to the thresing engine, got the atten-
ton of the men throwing wheat bun
dies into the separator.
"What pay are you getting" he de-
manded.

told.
Listen, boys" he said, "you fellows
are id fools. You've got this rube
farmer Just where you want him. Let's
4 quit unless he comes through with 81
+ an hour" was his talk to the half
dozen men who came up to listen to
him.
Now John Jones, the farmer, was
right there. He saw big storm com
ing, and there was a reason to hurry
the tlnreshing work. He walked up tC
the I. w. w. organizer.
Farmer on Warpath.
"You are not on this threshing crew,
he said. "Come on, now get of tht
place. These men are getting goot
pay. There is rain coming. We are
nearly through with the work. How
do you get this way, coming onto my
farm and starting something? If yol
dor't get off the place I'll have 70,
