 Officials of the navy department say the proposed mobilization will in no sense result in grand" maneu- vers. No effort will be made to con centrate all of the nations naval strength and only ships regularly in commission with trained crews will participate. The exercises and drills will be simple and mainly of a com petitive nature, including unofficial athletic competitions between repre- sentatives of the two fleeIs and of individual ships. The main object of the mobilization will be to give of ficers and men an opportunity to compare notes and meet for few weeks of good-natured rivalry.

MOTORISTS GIVEN TO MARCH IS
TO BUY 1920 AUTOMOBILE LICENSE

therefore request that March 10, 1920,
be set as the dead-line for this year.
Notice should be so given by advertis-
ing in the local county papers, and
after that date it is hoped the CO.
operations between the assessors the
sheriff., members of the state CON
stabulary and other peace officers will
develop a strict enforcement of this
particular law.
"'Of course, the license fees are due
on Jan. 1, 1920, and registrations
will occur in January and February as
usual, but the dead-line date, March
Is, sets the limit of patience and en-
ables peace officers to begin a con-
certed and uniform drive to enforce
the law.
"By delay in the collection of these
fees the counties and state lost large
amount of revenue in interest which
belongs to them. By early eoopera-
tive effort on the part of the assessors
and peace officers of Idaho, the auto
mobile law can be more effectively
enforced, and these fees can be more
quickly made available for highway
purposes

er, and later built and operated saw

Persons who operate motor vehicles
in Idaho are given until March 10, to
purchase 1920 licenses, according to a
ruling recently issued by Robert o.
Jones, secretary of state, at Boise.
While under the law the 1919 license
expired on January l, two and half
months of grace are given for renewal
but prosecutions win ensue in all cases
where 1920 licenses have not been pur-
chased by March 10. Licenses are to
be procured through the office of the
assessor of each county.
Secretary Jones has issued the fol
lowing statement on renewal of motor
vehicle licenses:
Gin order that there may be a uni
foimity in the enforcement of the au-
tomobile license law for 1920, it has
been suggested that a certain date be
specified, subsequent to which any per
son operating a motor vehicle on the
highways of the state without a Ii
cense be subject to arrest. Heretofore
one assessor has set a certain date,
another one has a date later on, and
there has been general confusion. 1

RICH OIL WELLS IN
IDAHO COUNTY MAY
BE BROUGHT IN SOON
SPLENDID TRACINGS OF MUCH
SOUGHT PRODUCT ON
PITTSBURG BAR

Idaho county may become a great
oil county and a rush to the Pittsburg
country where drilling for oil now is in
progress may become a reality in the
near future, judging from reports re-
ceived from the Snake river country,
where George Wood has for some time
been sinking wells in hope of dis
covering oil.
Information just received in Grange
vile from Pittsburg bar is to the
effect that splendid tracings of coal
oil recently were observed by Wood
and his associates, and that any day
they expect big gusher to "come
in. -
Wood, more than year ago, sold
his ranch on Snake river, but reserved
the right to drill for oil. He has
since been busy, and his efforts APP
parently will soon be crowned with
success, if reports received here are
authentic.
Pittsburg bar is many miles removed
from a railroad, and is reached only
by boats up Snake river from Lewis
ton, or overland from Grangevillei
If the Pittsburg district is found to
be a rich oil country, it 10 pointed
out here, the discovery no doubt would
hasten railroad construction up the
Snake and Salmon rivers.
A big increase in land values in the
Pittsburg section is expected, should
oil be found.

The letter said in part:
cit has come to our notice, through
the press, that Secretary Lane of the
department Of the interior is soon to
resign.
''With our intense interest in the
intermountain country, we are pre-
suming to suggest as his successor the
name of one of the men who has been
a great factor in the development Of
the west and who is fitted by both
experience and character for the
honor, former Gov. James H. Hawley
of Idaho.
Gin making this recommendation we
realize that each of us is a member
of the opposing political party, but it
is a distinct pleasure for US to be able
20 say that no party distinctions could
reduce our intense admiration for
Governor Hawley and our honest be
lief is his fitness for the place
Advices from Washington indicate
that the outlook for the appointment
of Governor Hawley to the position
IS favorable.

MUST BE CAREFUL IN
FIXING SUGAR PRICES

R. F. Bicknell, federal food admin
istrator, of Idaho, has ruled that gro
cerymen cannot sell sugar at margin of
profit in advance of the price fixed
by the government.
Some grocerymen, it is said, have
been seeking a stiff margin of profit on
sugar which they bought before the
advance in price to wholesalers. Mr..
Bicknell has held that sugar for which
the grocerymen paid $11.5O a hundred
pounds must be sold at $3.50 or $l4
and $15 or $40 a hundred.
Judge J. L. McClear, U. S. district
attorney for Idaho, has been advised
TO watch for and prosecute viOlators
of the ruling. Judge McClear SAID ne
