Hank Dorman came in from
the roundup last Thursday. Of
course he was not glad to get back;
oh no, he could just live on the
range forever, you know, but press
ing business demanded his pres
ence in town.
Our friend, Huff, made us a
pleasant call last Wednesday. Our
devil says if we had not treated him
nicely he would have went off in
"huff." Another break of that kind
! and there will be a third, class
funeral at this shop.
Mrs. Eblin left last Wednesday
night to join her husband at Hen
derson, Kentucky, where he is still
with the horses shipped from this
place by himself and George Little.
They will remain there until the
horses are disposed of.
S. S. Foote of Middleton has

good in Grande Ronde Valley but
short on the other side of the Blue

from Baker City to Montana.
Sam Wilson, alias Sam Nein-
mire, who it will be remembered,
killed three men at Graham, Idaho,
about year ago, has been arrested
in Texas. The Governor will issue
a requsition. If the right man,
there is likely to be hanging III
Idaho.
While in Salt Lake recently
we had the pleasure of meeting
Judge Anderson, of the Second Jul
dicial district of Utah, and his
clerk, Chas. Norris. Both of these
gentlemen are from our old home
in Iowa. It is wonderful the mum
Der of great men that town has
turned out. A-hem
"A fine plate of peaches, grapes,
etc., from Mr.. Jacob Plowhead's
Middleton Nursery was placed on
our table last Friday. THE TRIBUNE
once said that "Mr. Plowhead raises
only the BEST" and this collection
of fruit further verified the asser-
ton. Six Of the peaches averaged
81 inches in circumference and
were of the finest flavor. Mr.. Plow-
heads ambition to grow a high
standard of fruit and fruit trees is
highly commendable.
The following extract from
a letter from VIM. Murphy will be
read with interest by his many
friends here: 1t is dated at Clay
ton, Idaho. Gam permanently
located here, and will trouble you
no longer in changing my address.
This is a lively Mining Camp, rs
miles from nearest railroad station,
(Ketchum) there are about $50 men
employed here at mining, smelling
and charcoal burning. Saloons in
abundance but no churches or min
listers, I wish TIE TRIBUNE sue
cess"
Six small boys-not SO very
small either-made raid on S. L.
Haskell's water melon patch few
days ago, and instead of stealing a
melon or two and going about their
business, they destroyed the green
melons and tore up the vines like
young vandals. One of the "kids"
turned states evidence and "squeal-
ed" on the rest, and they only es-
capped arrest and prosecution by
