many, loaded his outfit on the cars
and went back to his Bear Lake
stronghold. The opinion had been
quite general all spring that con-
tract for extension of the ditch
would be made as soon as the en-
larging was completed; to those
who shared this opinion the failure
of the company to do so is quite
disappointment. The waters OF
Boise river are no nearer Nampa
and the great Deer Flat country
than they were two years ago. The
Tribune earnestly hopes that the
welcome flood will not be delayed
another year.
In quiet way Mr.. Howard Sc
bree, of this place, is getting into
his possession quite fine block of
Ada county real estate. In addi-
ton to his fine $40 acres of sage
brush land, he last summer purchas-
ed 32O acres of the adjoining bot
tom land, and only a few days
ago he purchased 500 acres of the
island in Snake river across from
his former purchase. This a part
of what is known as the Mcconnell
reservation. We understand that
Mr.. Sebree paid $4,000 for this lat
ter purchase. He now has hay
and pasture land enough to pro-
vide for 1900 head of cattle.
Mr.. S. 8. Foote, the Middleton
miller was in town the other day
and in reply to an inquiry for news
said that the most important news
he had was the assurance that the
grain crop of this county was going
to be from one-third to one-half
heavier than in any former season
for five years. We are glad to
learn OF this. With a soil that is
capable of producing an enormous
yield of the finest grain in the
world, the people of Boise Valley
have for years depended upon Ore
gon for the greater portion of their
-four supply. The time that should
have been spent in raising grain
has been spent in rounding-up a
few spawned cayuses OR bony
steers. The result is that the
money sent out has exceeded that
returned, which all concede is an
unhealthy condition. 1t will be a
glorious day for this country when
the range stock-raising is divorced
from ranching. Then both will be
paying industries-as it is now it
| is bound to be failure and vexation
through the very nature Of things.
DIR. J. B. Wright of Dixie inform
ed The Tribune the other day that
he has been at work on the Metho-
dist Ditch, below Caldwell, all
spring, and that the work will be
continued until the fine body OF
land under it is covered with water
and the ditch is an assured success.
It will be remembered that this is
an enterprise that was completed
several years ago but was not a
success owing to the treacherous
nature of the soil for about three
miles on a side hill. The soil SEEM
ed incapable of holding water and
after many trials the projectors OF
the scheme became discouraged
and abandoned it for the time being.
DR.. Wright, who is now the princi-
pal owner. is confident that with
due care and vigilance he can over
come the difficulty. The water
will be humed over the weak and
dangerous parts of the line. We
understand that about $1,000 have
thus far been expended in the
work.

Obituary.

DIED-In Santa Ana. Cal. on the 18th of Feb
ruary, 1889, OF consumption. Mr. Lawson d Rankin,
aged 35 years.
Deceased was married to Miss Eliza
Baker younger sister ofstlie. writer at
Charlton, Iowa, in 1879 and leaves a
widow with two children. We have
known him from childhood and known
him to be an honest, steady, industrious
boy and man. The best portion of his
life was devoted to the service of the
Atkinson, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad
company as an employee in the capacity
of conductor, telegraph operator and
train dispatcher. During the many
years of faithful service he rendered
that company in Kansas, Colorado and
California he always retained the con-
fidence and esteem of all with whom
he came in contact, and made it the
business of life to faithfully discharge
his duties in every respect. He was a
kind, generous husband and affection
ate father. For many years he had
been suffering with lung difficulty but
refused to desert his post till too late
to check the ravages of the destroyer.
His remains were laid in the Santa
Ana cemetery. Peace to his memory.
He was buried with appropriate cere-
monies under the auspices of the
Knights of Pythias of whose order he
was an honored memberships Ana
Dispatch.
Deceased was the oldest son of Mr..
and Mrs E. c. Rankin, of this city,
and was known to many of our read
ers while he was engaged with the
Santa Fe road. The bereaved family
have the sympathy of friends in this
community.
