Article V of the State Constitution
and submitting To the Electors Of
the state for their approval or re
lection the question Of whether said
section shall be so amended that the

Whereas, the growth of the state
since its admission to the Union in
1890, has brought great increase in

the supreme court, and
Whereas, the membership Of the
court under the constitution is limited
to three justices, who, notwithstand-
ing their ability and industry, are I'M
able to keep up with the growing
volume of work, and
Whereas, the present congested con-
dition of the supreme court calendar,
through no fault on the part of the
court, practically leads to denial Of
justice in many cases by reason of de-
Law incident to the hearing of causes
and appeals, and
Whereas, Idaho has arrived at that
point in its growth where a larger
court is necessary to carry on the or
binary and regular business Of the
court:
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the
legislature Of the state of Idaho:
Section /. That that portion Of sec
ton 6, Of article v Of the state con-
stitution, reading as follows:
h0H - ~
three justices, q majority Of whom
shall be necessary to make = quorum
or pronounce q decision" be amended
to read as follows:
"The supreme court shall consist OF
five justices, majority Of whom shall
be necessary to make quorum or
pronounce 4 decision" At the gen
eral election ct which this amendment
is submitted, the legislature shall
make provision for the election Of two
additional justices, one for the term
of four years and one for the term OF
six years, and if this amendment is
ratified, the justices so elected shall
take office on the first Monday OF
January, 1921"
Section 2. The question to be sub
mitted to the electors of the state at
the next general election in order to
determine whether they will approve
or reject the amendment proposed In
section I, shall be as follows:
"Shall section of article Y OF the
state constitution be amended so as
to increase the membership OF the
supreme court from three to five JUS
tees and providing for the election
and terms Of office Of said additional
justices?"
Section 8. The secretary OF state

tion of these proposed constitutional
amendments in each county once a

California A. A.
Praises Road Work

II. r. Basford, chairman of the
executive committee of the Cali
fOrnia State Automobile associa-
tion was in Ashland for a few
hours today. Mr.. Basford is on
an official tour of inspection which
will extend to Vancouver, B. c.,
and on which he will gather au-
thentic information of roads, hO-
tells, etc., for the California as
sociation.
He states that the California
organization is ready and anxious
to extend every possible aid to
Oregon in this states program OF
road development and upbuilding
Of tourist attractions and accomO-
datlons. He says, 1--WE, down in
California, can tell you what prop
ef deVelOpment OF roads ana OPP
ening of tourist attractions means
in financial returns and other
ways. California is mighty glad
to see Oregon going ahead with
her development.
Mr.. Basford spoke in a compli-

X. +. COURTHOUSE
CASE APEAELED

KLAMATH FALLS-Appeal to
the supreme court from the decis-
ion of Judge Hamilton in the suit
of J. NJ. Dougan, contractor,
against klamath County, its coun-
ty court, and others. has been fill
ell by plaintiffs attorneys. Judge
Hamilton dismissed Dougan's ac-
tion to collect $50, 900, alleged to
be due on a courthouse building
contract. On the final decision
rests which of two cOurthouses,
ore completed and one partly fin
ished, shall be the county capitol.
An unlimited bond to secure a
stay OF execution was filed with
the appeal, and it is believed that
attorneys for Dougan, which prac-
tically means for the faction seek
ing to have the finished Main
street building established as the
courthouse, are thus laying foun-
dation for an injunction petition
to the supreme court should the
county court attempt to complete
the Hot Springs courthouse before
the supreme court decides the ap-
peal.

Sweet Dream of
Many Years Ago

A farmer raised a deuce of q
row in a local grocery store the
other day when told that sugar
was selling at 25c a pound. He
ranted and roared about small
town profiteers," claiming that
sugar was selling in Portland at
20 pounds for a dollar.
The incredulous grocer urged
the farmer to prove it."
The farmer produced a copy OF
Portland newspaper of a recent
date. Sure enough, a little item
read; Sugar is selling in Port
land at 20 pounds for the dollar.
The grocer called his attention
to the heading of the column. II
was the twenty-five Years Ago"
column.
The farmer took home four
pounds Of sugar.
