"A morning walk over canyon
hill last Tuesday revealed to us the
fact that our popular and energetic
lumberman, Mr.. FL. r. Stevenson,
is making some very extensive i'm
provements on the ranch property
he lately purchased of VIM. Dryden.
A large barn finished and commo-
dious dwelling house, 24x36, two
stories, nearing completion, fen ces.
ETC., are the most important.
This property before another year
will undoubtedly be the finest SUI
burban ranch in the vicinity of
Caldwell. Mr.. Stevenson has
cleared new road over the hill,
which leads directly to his ranch,
and with a little work will make
beautiful drive.

aged about 60 years. "Old Char

has been a resident of Caldwell
almost since the town started, be-

latest rumor, that we are to have
a new depot Immediately, without
a blush. One more lie will be of
little consequence, but should it
happen to be the truth, it will go a
long ways toward our redemption.
Seriously, the railroad company
should not act hastily in this mat
ter. They have already got depot
here that is worth $3.50, and we
should very much dislike to see a
useless sacrifice of this valuable
property. True, there is no wait |
ing room for passengers, but the
company should remember that |
Idaho has more sunny days than
any country in the world, and the
chances for standing out in a storm
are comparatively small; besides
outdoor exercise is conducive to
good health anyway, and walking
up and down the track an hour or
two, gives keen enjoyment to the
ride. Of course some enterprising
thief could easily pull a board off
and rifle the office, but as the re-
