POLITICIANS
ARE WORRIED
ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW PARTY
in NEXT IDAHO CAMPAIGN
CAUSES SPECULATION
SENTIMENT STRONG FOR MOORE
Lieutenant Governor Is Fayorite i'm
All Parts of the State.

BOISE. Idaho, Dec. 1.-THE an
nouncement having been officially
made that the new Liberal party will
nave a ticket in the field in Idaho.
arousal OF speculation is natural. Ii
IS not yet clear whether this means
a complete ticket or whether the Ida
no activities of the third party mama
gers are to be confined to members
OF congress. There are indications
that may mark the limit of 1922 en-
deayors, as some of those interested
In the movement have advised against
entering the state office field at this
time.
In connection with the third party
propaganda, students of state politics
are trying to figure out whether any
line may be drawn between it and the
statement that the Nonpartisan league
will not put out straight Nonpartisan
league ticket next year but merely
lndorse. The Endorsement statement
emanates from North Dakota, but it is
not be to assumed the big chief Town
ley would tolerate any departure in
Idaho from his dictum. Any way. he
never has yet.
If, then, the n p. l.. goes on the in
dorsement basis, will it confine its an
proval to candidates of one party or
will it scatter its shots among all the
parties?
Having once captured the demo-
cratic party in Idaho, would it feel
more at home there?
Seeing signs of promise in the third
party movement, would it center it's
affections there?
Or might it place the seal of its ap-
proval upon any republican candidate?
The latter contingency seems to be
extremely doubtful, in the opinion of
these observers and analists. The
more probable action, they declare. is
Endorsement of third party candidates
or probable absorption of the Liberals.
Any overtures to the democratic
leaders, they point out, would likely
be rejected in view of democracy's sad
experience with the N. p. l.. and the
general feeling among democrats that
their party could not afford by ac-
cepting such Endorsement, to share in
the record of the n P. L.
On the republican side there seems
to be one candidate for governor
talked of and he is Hon. c. c. Moore.
of st. Anthony the present lieutenant
governor If the sentiment for him
continues to grow as in the past few
months, he will have no opposition in
the opinion of close observers.
On the democratic side, State Sem
ator Van Housen of Adams county
seems to be leading favor. He is re-
garded by many democrats as a desir-
able candidate, for one reason because
he has not been involved in factionaI
party fights.
For congressman from the southern
district Addison T. Smith is conceded
the nomination if he wants it ana
the northern district seems to present
the same situation as to Congressman
French.

off the chains on the wheels and the
roads being in good shape, he did not
think it necessary to put them on
again for the trip home. Near Athol
he struck an icy bit of road while tray

first thing he knew the auto skidded

STANDPOINT is AGAIN DEFEATED
LEGAL Basketball Team Won Friday
By Score of 81 to Z

by score OF a TO >.
The Bonners Ferry high school bas-
ketball team dealt out defeat to its
ancient rival, the Standpoint team last
Friday evening to the tune of "a to 5.
on the local floor.
The game promised to be quite a
thrilling one from the start. Sand
point taking the lead the first five
minutes Of play which greatly pleased
the small crowd of Standpoint people
who came up to witness the game.
Soon the Bonners Ferry team got
down to working order and Twitchell
dropped the first ball into the basket
after six minutes of play after Kent,
Bo1leau and Twitchell had worked the
ball from one end OF the hall to the
other by a series of short. snappv
passes. The first half ended with a
score of 3 to 3 in favor of Bonners
Ferry.
The Standpoint boys came back the
second half determined to outplay
their smaller opponents but the team
work or short passes and short shots
OF the local quintet were too much for
them. Davis seemed to be always in
the road of Sandpoint's passes and
the speed and ability of Twitchell,
Boileau and Kent proved too much
for the Standpoint guards
Twitchell and Davis displayed bet
ter form and playing ability in the last
game than they have ever shown be-
fore. Both these boys were in nearly
every play.

Visitors Like Treatment Here

The domestic science department of
the local high school has made an
enviable reputation for itself through
out all of northern Idaho and the
neighboring towns of Montana and
Washington, in the splendid feeds"
and receptions given in honor of visit
ing basket ball teams playing here.
Much credit is due Miss Hollier and
her domestic science girls for these
leeds" and the manner in which they
are conducted. Each time a visiting
team comes here Miss Hollier has a
different set of girls serve and pre-
pare a feed" in their honor. Their
work shows careful and thorough
training both in the preparation and
serving.
The Standpoint boys in speaking of
their treatment at Bonners Ferry said:
We knew Bonners Ferry had a strong,
smooth-working team and that we
were likely to face defeat this time
but that did not dishearten us as we
knew your domestic science depart
ment had something in store for us,
whether we won or lost"
Coach Wesley Taylor, coach of the
North Central high at Spokane who
refereed here last year and attended
the reception given the Coeur d'Alene
team, wrote in a letter to Coach
Campbell: Il am sorry we cannot
play you on your floor this year as
we are limited by our board to GER
tain number of games a year in which
our schedule is now full and limited to
play only on regulation floors. | am
sorry about this, Mr.. Campbell, as |
will always have a warm spot in my
heart for Bonners and would like my
boys to have a chance to meet your
boys and attend one of your feeds"
given by your domestic science de-
partment, which had the pleasure of
attending last year after the Coeur d.
Alene game.
The girls serving after the Sand
point game were Marion Pecken-
paugh, Alice Stamm, Rhona Witwer.
Helen Sherman, Hildegard Fox and
Evelyn Lindberg.

READY TO SELL
AUTO LICENSES
SECRETARY OF STATE PLANS
STRICT ENFORCEMENT OF IL
CENSE LAWS THIS YEAR
ORANGE AND BLACK 1922 COLOR
Expect To Register $4,000 Autos the
Next Year.

Machinery for licensing the more
than fifty thousand automobiles in the
state for 1922 has been set up and
applications for license will be re-
ceived at the offices of the A county
recorders on and after December 20
it was announced Saturday by Rob
ert o. Jones, secretary of state Plates
will be sent out on and after this
date but Mr.. Jones cautions all auto
mobilists against using the 1922 plates
before Janary /. To do so is illegal
he says.
Applicants for licenses are advised
that under an act of the 1921 legisla-
ture application blanks properly filled
out together with the receipt fur
nished by the county recorder, may be
used in lieu of license plates until the
plates arrive. The application and the
receipt must be pasted. on windshield
where they can be seen.
Many violations of the automobile
registration law, Mr.. Jones believes,
are due to unfamiliarity with the pro-
visions of the law and for this reason
he has had printed on the back of the
application blanks for 1922 a short
synopsis of certain features of the
Idaho law Registrants are advised by
the secretary to thoroughly familiar
ize themselves with the law because
ignorance is no excuse.
The color scheme of the 1922 plates
is orange figures on a black back
ground.
Registration for 1921 reached 51,311
Saturday and approximate receipts for
all licenses sold are S840,621.45. The
registration in 1920 was 50,S61 but the
receipts were greater than for 1921
Mr.. Jones believes this is due to the
fact that large number of cars this
year took the reduced rate because of
age. In other words, he says, there
were not so many new cars bought in
1921.
He estimates that if 1922 maintains
the normal increase which took place
from year to year from 1914 to 1920.
the receipts from this registration
should approximate one million dol
lars. Fees collected by the several
counties of the state for the operation
of automobiles is divided rs per cent
to the counties and 25 per cent to the
state.
Enforcement Of the registration law
during 1921, although only partially
complete, shows 100 arrests and fines
collected to the amount of $11O4.10.
This is an increase over 1920 when the
total amount of fines collected was
314785.
Early in 1922 about 100 men will be
appointed honorary inspectors by the
state to aid in the administration of
the registration law and to assist the
state generally in enforcing motor
laws. These men will serve without
pay and part of them will be selected
from the personnel of the department
of public works. Others will be ap-
pointed from state automobile asso-
citations.
