Solons to Consider Enaction
of New Primary Statute.
SHORT SESSION PLANNED
Republican Majority in Both House
and Senate 'Want to Finish
All Business Quickly.
BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 27. (Special.)
Organization problems and the pro
gramme of legislation to be followed
are the issues now before members
elect to the next legislature, with
Wie sessions but a month away. The
fujL'X that the republicans have a big
majority, has caused some little con
cern. Everything possible will be done to
prevent differences of a serious na
ture among the republicans and to
u-void party splits. At the present
time there is nothing to indicate fac
tionalism. There seems to be a de
sire in many quarters to make a
record by having a short session,
moving out of the way immediately
fljl of the appropriation bills, devot
ing the time necessary to emergency
legislation and then adjourning.
Three Would be Speaker.
The speakership fight for the house
will probably develop into a three
cornered contest, in which It will be
Peter G. Johnston, a representative
elect from Bingham county, against
the field. The other two aspirants
probably will be W. Scott Hall of
Oneida county and Charles D. Storey
of Ada county. Storey has twice
wielded the gavel in the lower house.
The legislative programme this ses
sion will call for a number of impor
tant administrative measures which
seek to strengthen the state com-
Xnission form of government law.
Idaho has had commission state gov
ernment now for two years. Its ad
vocates claim it was a great suc
cess. With another two years' trial,
they assert this will be so conclu
sively proven that Idaho will never
again return to its old form of state
government, regardless of which
party is in power.
Appropriation to Come First.
The general appropriations bill will
be introduced the first day of the
session, the administration announced.
The bill will have been exported by
the financial department of the state.
bo that the legislature will be saved
that trouble. It can be passed and
moved out of the way early in the
Bession instead of being held off until
the last day, as has been the case
heretofore.
Included among the latter will be a
law similar to the one approved by
the electors of the state of California
at the last session of the legislature,
an anti-alien measure, seeking to pro
hibit aliens from owning land in the
state. In California it has been called
the anti-Japanese bill. Idaho now
has a law permitting aliens to own
land. An effort will be made to re
peal it.
Old How 1m ltevallrd.
Four years ago the anti-Japanese
issue caused a pretty row in the leg
islature. Passage of an anti-alien
law was only prevented by Interfer
ence from Washington, D. C.
There will be a concerted effort.
having support in many parts of the
state, to net the legislature to re
enact the direct primary law, repealed
two years ago. The republican party
platform was construed by many to
Infer that the entire issue of the di
rect primary was in the hands of the
legislature, which was pledged to
strengthen the present semi-primary
law.
There is one federal berth that is
drawing republicans to it like bees
to honey. That is the post of United
States marshal. There are said to be
no less than 10 or 15 applicants. The
list includes Colonel Marsters of Ada
county and W. S. l'arkhurst of Black
root. Idaho, formerly of Itichfield,
Idaho. Marsters is said to stand in
the favor of the powers that be.
l'arkhurst is said to have strong sup
port as well as the others, including
Superintendent Breshears of the state
constabulary.
desirable sections of Europe. Last
July 83,959 foreigners were admitted
to thin country,, 62,832 of whom came
in as immigrants, and the balance as
I visitors. Since then there has been
a steady gain every month, although
exact statistics are not available.
It is estimated that 86.500 canre in
August, 98.400 in September and 101.
000 in October. At the present rate,
if no further restrictive legislation
is enacted, it is estimated that next
year's Influx may reach the enor
mous total of 2,000.000. Italy alone,
it is said, has 5,000.000 to 8.000,000
persons casting longing eyes on the
United States.
I ndenlrables Are Coming.
It is admitted by the original ad
vocates of the literacy test that the
law passed over President Wilson's
veto has not worked out as was ex
pected. The illiterates and the men-
aicants are getting into the country
just the same as before, and there
appears to be a surprisingly large
numDer of these classes here now.
And not only does the-literacy test
seem to have failed to prevent a flood
of immigration. It seems also to have
ie:iea to keep out certain races fur
r.ishing very cheap, unskilled labor
that were particularly in the minds
Oi the proponents of the test. Thus, in
the first six months of the year, some
analysis of which is available, the
largest single group of immigrants
came from southern Italy. There were
58,498 in that group, or more than 20
per cent of the total of approximately
-ni.uuu immigrant aliens for the six
months period. The north Italians
were only 8375, the English"were next
to the southern Italians, with 29,652,
bat close behind were 28,751 Mexicans,
and there were 12,041 Greeks, 10,893
Portuguese and 18,479 Spanish.
Labor Leaders Hopeful.
The advocates of the literacy test
among the labor leaders are ' not
wholly discouraged over its failure to
prevent a heavy tide, however, for
they still expect to get one advantage
from the test which they did not talk
about a great deal when the fight was
on in congress. That is, that the new
labor coming into this country being
able to read at least a little, will be
easier to cultivate in behalf of or
ganized labor. -

Fire Loss Heavy.
That the Wenatehee national forest
suffered more damages from fires this
year than any other forest in this dis
trict was the statement of A. H. Syl
vester, supervisor, who is in Portland
for a few days' visit. He stated that
about $30,000 worth of timber was
lost, although the government spent
Jotl.000 in fighting the flames, and
private owners fully 520,000 more. He
also thinks that there will be plenty
of water next season, as the rainfall
has been exceptionally heavy so far
thia winter, though little snow has
fallen.
