THE TRIBUNE will probably
talk politics next week.
Judge Berry decided that Nor
mons can not register. They say
they intend to do SO just the same.
BY reading the territorial pa
pers person would hardly know
that there is going to be an election
in Idaho this year. What's the
matter with the party organs?
Do the wheels of the press need
"oiling?" We suggeet that Haw-
ley sell a mine or two and Dubois
bring the Salt Lake sack up into
Idaho. Let the food gates of elo-
quence and abuse be opened +!
The Caldwell delegation to
Wood River, save one or two, were
bald headed. It must be said, at
the expense of the Caldwell mar
ried ladies, we admit, that all the
bald headed delegates were married
men. Here is a fact for young
men with inquiriug minds anc
matrimonial aspirations to ponder
over. Ask your best girl to ex
plain it.

Mrs. Castator and Mrs. Pease
were spending their money in Cald-
well few days ago. Oh, we had
splendid timel
Col. Gary closed the iron works
here on Saturday last, and has
gone to Vale. His family will re-
main here for the present.
Bob. Hamilton is building log
house on his timber claim. No
stumps to show that the timber
grew on that claim, however.
Wonder how Bob pulled them up.
A. J. Mitchell will soon remove
With his family on to AL. Fouch's
ranch near Star. We shall miss
the family from our Social Circle,
also in the church and Sunday
school.
The extension of the Sebree ditch
is now an assured fact, as the
ditcher was started on Wednesday
last, with Brice Shipley driving the
lead team, and Frank Corran at
the wheel. If Bro. Brice can talk
while the machine is in motion, the
work will progress rapidly, other
wise we shall expect to hear Cor
ron's gentle whisper, drive on.
= Charlie Sebree spends most of
his time here looking after the stock
ranch recently purchased by How
ard Sebree. That is not all. Char
lie is in training for a runner, 60
as-you-please style. In the abb
sence of a hurdle, he takes to the
fence, and makes the leap with
more haste than elegance. He will
soon learn to be as elegant as he is
hasty, however, stimulated as he is
by the close proximity of the horns
of his trainer to his rear. Charlie
has won every race so far.
N. B. Sebree is fairly settled in
the house formerly occupied by D.
o. Castator. We hope Mr.. Sebree
will become a permanent resident
of this place. Mrs. c. H. Sebree
made them a visit last week.
Geo. Chapman has returned
from Long Valley with his family
and will spend the winter here.

THE FESTIVE NAIL CLERK.

Sterling Pogue, a railway mail
clerk running on the o. S. L., be-
tween Granger and Huntington,
was arrested at the former place
Monday night for robbing the U.
S. mail. For some time past let
tiers with money in them have been
lost in transit between the two
points, and an investigation was
ordered. Suspicion at once fell on
Pogue, as he was in the habit OF
gambling heavily both at Granger
and Huntington. Decoy letters
were introduced in the mail last
Monday both at Soda Springs and
Montpelier. At Granger three OF
four of the packages were missing,
and Pogue was arrested. The
marked bills and the envelopes
which had contained them, were
found on his person. He admitted
the crime as he was completely
cornered He was taken to Boise
City and will be tried at the next
session of the district court.-Poca'
tello Reporter.
We are glad the postal inspectors
are at work on this run. Already
has our mail service materially
improved since The TRIBUNE first
inaugurated its "kick," but the
end is not yet. 1t is going to gel
better still. A thorough inspection
will show that THE TRIBUNE had
cause for complaint, and that il
has not been talking just to hcal
itself.
