Of that town gave the DR.. a roya

Ayers Hair Yigor has no equa

badness. It eradicates dandruff

The most popular of toilet articles
-McMahon's circus which show
ed at Caldwell last Tuesday, yaE
by far the best show that has vet
been through this country. The
managers are gentlemen, and the
absence of the usual rough, rowdy
bulldozers and light-fngered gen,
try, which are the leading features
of the average show, was very no
ticeable. The performance, while
unpretentious, was good through
out, and was thoroughly enjoyed by
all lovers of the ring. McMahon
has gained reputation here that
will profit him much should he
ever return.
Worse and worse! Hon. d.
L. Bailey received an important
letter from Boise yesterday, bear
ing the Boise City postmark of July
20. 1t arrived here the 27th-only
seven days on a two hours run.
The letter was entirely too late to
accomplish its object, and placed
Mr.. Bailey in awkard position, as
well as causing him great annoy
ance. This is no uncommon occur
renee, as THE TRIBUNE has discov-
cred to its sorrow, being beat out
of a 800 job a few weeks ago the
same way. We would advise all
persons having important mail for
Boise, to take it there in person.
Caldwell has a reputation for
enterprise that is not by any means
confined to Ada county. Other
towns have just as good locations
and much better soil, but they are
dead as door nail compared with
Caldwell. After all it is the peo-
pie that make a town, and with all
due reverence and respect to age.
it is the young generation that
moves things. TIE TRIBUNE at
tributes the success of Caldwell to
the enterprise of her business men
who are enterprising because they
are young and full of life, and not
I'D and ''sot' in their ways. Did
you ever think of it? There is
Sherman Coffin, who is at the head
If the largest business firm in
Idaho, the annual freight bills of
which are equal to President Cleve-
and's salary-who has yet to see
lis thirtieth birthday, Aud there
S Monte Gwinn, who has passed
he thirtieth mile stone by only a
ew lengths, who has the reputation
If being the hardest rustler in
[daho," whose exertions have al
'eady placed him at the head of q
magnificent business of his own.
There, again, is the selid old firm
# Howard Sebree Co., under the
lirect management Of 2. A. Devers,
WHO can still stand under the
shadow of tue thirtieth mile post

lbout five lengths long-assisted

wenty-eight years in this world of

lever lost an opportunity to boom
Caldwell, cannot stand on the
ortieth mound for four years to
.ome. Likewise the firm of Picard
Roberts, both past thirty, it is
rue, but still decidedly young
nen. The opinion is prevalent, !
however, especially among the la
lies, that they are old enough to
marry. Alex. Hoover is an old |
bachelor, but not an old man by |
bout twenty-five years, consider
ng sixty old. Clarence Scott, who
lolds the keys to the bank vault |
las felt the breezes of six and !
wenty summers blow through his |
7hiskers, while both THE TRIBUNE
publishers have yet to feel the |
billy frosts of as many winters.
lam Moe, our jeweler, is twenty

Judge Beaty's- hair is gray but it

iced and J. S. Negley, who delve
nto the musty volumes Of Black
tone and dig up a panacea for the
isputes Of their neighbors, are
9th young men; Geo. Little, of
little & Blatchley, is middle aged;
is also Mr.. Lucus, the harness
caller. Blatchley come under the
Dung list by good majority, and
copper, of the lumber yard, can
pine in on a pinch. Jesse Har-
ION, manages of Pefey's harness
mop, is in the early thirtics, while
j. F. Isham trugdes along in the

ensers of spiritual comfort, are

lie close enough to have their
ings scorched. Wheel, the tom
rial artist, is yet in the twenties.
otiin, Gwinn and Sebree employ
ON fifteen to eighteen clerks, with
average of about twenty-one. i
fact there is not an old man in
