The potato crop of Idaho for the
season of 1920 was disappointing TO
the grower. The yield was good. The
price was and is bad. Only a small
proportion of the potato growers OF
Idaho received the cost of production
for their crop. This condition was
not entirely unexpected. The history
of potato growing shows that with
out exception high priced seed sea-
sons have always been followed by
low price markets.

RECALL PETITION
. To Be GRANTED;
ELECTION EARLY
Question As to Validity of
Recall of Commissioner
Mclaughlin Not To Be
Raised; Enough SignerS.

There is no question but that the
recall petition will be granted
when It is reported back to the
city commission by the city attor-
ney at the Wednesday night SEES
sion Of the commission. Although
'it may contain lllegSi names an |
may possibly be inyalidated by the
inclusion of man not subject to
recall, the commissioners will un~
doubtcdly decide that the Oppor-
.tunity for a test of strength should
be given.
City Artt0ney w A. Keleher has
been going through the list Of
names and considering the provi-
sions Of the petitions. 1t is said
that a few names have been found
OF people who are not legal Vot-
ers in the city. There are other in
dications that some names have
been signed for residents. though
not by them. The city attorney,
however would not look upon this
as sufficient to inN validate the pc
titiOn, should such names be found,
since there are names attached
greatly III eNCtSb Ol the lSuulIeu
number,
Members of the city commission
stated last night that they would
be disposed to grant the petitions
and call the special election, mol
matter what errors might have
been made in the draft. The in
clus!on Of J. T. Mclaughlin as one
of the recalled commissioners
when he was appointed and mott
elected is a technical point which
neither Mr.. Mclaughlin or the
other petitioners named in the pc
tition Of recall care TO raise.
The provisions of the city char
ter require that the special cleo
tion shall be called within thirty
days after the filing Of the petit
ton. There is no construction of
the charter to show whether that
provision means within thirty days
of the time the petition was pre-.
scented or accepted. However, There
IS a desire to have the test come
early and in that event, the date
of preservation may be accepted
az the initial date.
