THE TRIS, said amen! And they
said to one another what manner of
man is this that cometh not where
they agreeth? Md it was SO.
Now it came to pass that when
the day approached, the editors be-
gan to make excuses one TO anoth-
er as follows: Thus spake Wheel
er, of the Bellevue Press: II have
sickness in my family nigh unto
death, and I therefore prythee
have me excused" And Allen, of
Shoshone, said: "a debtor of long
standing will pay unto me forty
cents upon that day, and I must
needs stay at home to receive it,
and l therefore prythee have
me excused" And Lamoreaux, of
Albion said: Judge Jones will
kill hogs on that day and to me he
will bring spare ribs as a peace
offering, ,.and therefore prythee
have me excused" And Cobb, of
Boise said: "The Mayor of Boise
City hath said that no gentleman
liveth in Caldwell, and l therefore
prythee have me excused"
And Glenn, of Weiser, said: ~
have an engagement with a bottle
of beer, and l therefore prythee
have me excused" And there was
many other excuses, and it was
good.
And THE TRIBUNE arose in its
wrath and said: "Take your or
ganization and 60 to, but come not
here. For we are not as other
towns who bleed you and make no
preparations to receive you. Go We
to them, for if we appear not it
causeth them no trouble. Go to
Gath or Gomora or hades, but
please make no more cracks at
Caldwell, for she never spareth
pains or money to entertain her
guests, and it causeth vexation and
anguish of spirit when they fail to
appear. Let not the newspaper
men be troubled, but allow the for
eign advertiser to wax fat off of
your substance, and the law max
ers to ignore your demands because
of no united action. Sleep quietly
on and thankfully and humbly re-
ceive the crumb, when you have
power to demand the loaf; let not
the vision of wholesome and profit
able printing laws, such as other
states enjoy, disturb your peaceful
slumber, for some of you might get
out of debt, and you would not
know yourselves; also be a side
issue, for you have not energy
enough to be anything else; go to!
60 to!

Those who were at the depot
Sunday evening when the east
bound train came in, witnessed the
a remarkable incident. A calf was
standing on the COW catcher con-
tentedly chewing it's cud and ap-
parently enjoying the ride. When
scared off it walked calmly away,
as if beating train was a usual
occurrence. AS the animal made
straight toward a saloon, the by
ISLANDERS are excusable for mistak-
ing it for the Idaho Press Associa-
ton, as both appearance and ac-
ton gave grounds for the suppose
ton. An apology should be made
to the slandered calf, however.

The Idaho Press Association.

Anu III CAME W pass GudG With
the editors were gathered together
in Boise City, they said one unto
another, 1--WE can do nothing here
because we are a side issue to the
constitutional convention, and our
quorum is continually being brok-
en-, let US therefore adjourn to meet
at some place where can give our
undivided time and attention to the
Press Association, and 60 not upon
excursions to Salt Lake, but re-
main in session and reason togeth-
er, and try and arrive at conclu-
sions for our mutual benefit" And
it was SO. And they all raised
their voices with one accord and
said 'Let us 60 to Caldwell"
And they were of one mind, for
there was no dissenting voice. And
although THE TRIBUNE had invited
them not, yet it said come, and our
people will treat you white. And
they fixed the ninth day of the
twelfth month for the mighty gath
ering, and they departed in peace.
And it came to pass as the day
drew nigh THE TRIBUNE said unto
the people of Caldwell: 'Low and
behold, the men of gall and brains
will soon be in our midst, and what
soever we do unto them, do We the
same unto u.s." And they arose as
one man and cried in loud voice,
1--WE will give them all we have
without money and without price,"
and they straightway raised one
hundred and fifty silver sheckels,
and ordered the tatted calf to be
killed, and the feast to be spread
that all things might be in readi-
ness. And the strangers were to
be made welcome and be given the
freedom of the city; and the edict
went forth that no hotel, or store,
or saloon was to accept money from
them, for they were to be taught
what the hospitality of Caldwell
meant. And they were to be pre-
vailed upon to remain until the 60
ing down of the sun on the second
day, and on the second day they
were to be delivered unto the ladies,
and they were again to be given
square meal, such as they read
about but never get. And all these
and many other good things were
showered upon them, and they were
to be objects Of attention and care.
And it was so. And when the
ninth day of the twelfth month
was come, THE TRIBUNE borrow.
ed suit of clothes and awaited the
coming of the mighty quill pushers.
And they kept up vigilant watch
on all freight trains, but their vigi-
lance awaited them nothing, for
no one appeared. And when the
"fyer" arrived at the twelfth hour,
C. M. Hayes, he of the Idaho Az
alanche, got off alone. And he
made him straightway to the print
ing Office, and he lifted up his voice
and cried aloud, "where are my
brothers?" And they answered
him and said, "are we thy brothers
keeper; ask of the winds?" And
when he found he was alone he
waxed exceeding wroth and tore
his hair and said dammit" and

The ARGOS should elucldate to its readers the
proposition that the Johnstown disaster was the
direct result of Hrotection. Give Protection
another black eye" dear Colonel.-[Journal.
Well, Senator, since you have
seen fit to indulge in levity, the loss
of life is traceable to protection. 4"
Had the Pittsburgh millionaires who
owned the lake any regard for the
safety of other people, they would
have repaired the dam when they
were repeatedly notified of its un-
safe condition. The people. we are
told, livod in state of uneasIness
and anxiety during high waters for
fear the dam would give away.
They knew what the consequence
would be when the dam broke loose.
Had the Pittsburgh millionaires
paid heed to their requests-had
they made the dam secure, they
would have protected the lives of
thousands of the JOhnstown people
who met such a horrible death. But
as usual, protection in this case was
like all other cases of Protection, it
was for the classes aud not the
masses. 1t would cost few dollars
to make the dam safe, so they con-
cluded as Protection was their in
herited right, they would let the
Johnstown people look out for
themselves, just as the Republican
party is doing with the laboringmen
to-day.

BEGINS TO SOUEAL.

one OF the most stupendeus outrages upon the
masses OF the people of this country to-day Is
the existence of the sugar trust. This unscru-
pulous monopoly has forced the price of sugar
mp about 60 per cent. in the last few weeks and
the people pay ten cents pound for sugar that
they bought short while ago for six Congress
ought to pass law making such combines a
criminal characterization Eagle.
Why do you kick on trusts, dear
brother, at this late day r? Wasn't
1T your Uncle Jimmy Blaine who
said ''Trusts are largely private af-
fairs with which Congress and Gro
yer Cleveland have no right to inter
fere," and you upheld James G..
Blaine in that declaration. Now
you call upon Congress to protect
You from zone of the most stupend-
Gus outrages upon the masses of the
people OF this country to-day, the
sugar trust" Why this change of
faith! Are you getting your eyes
open to the fact that ''Protection"
is not for the masses but for the
pTiUiteged classes? The sugar trust
is not the only trust which has
forced the price Of the necessaries
OF life up to the very highest notch
while they have forced the wages of
the laboring class down every week
since Ben Harrison took his seat.
You need have no fears of Con-
gress passing ga law making such
combines a criminal offense" so long
as your Uncle Benny and Uncle
Jimmy are the beneficiaries of such
combines. It was the combination
OF wealth that placed them there.
and they can be relied upon to do
nothing to interfere with the prog
ress Of the trusts. The people will
take a hand in this trust business
little later on.

CONTEMPLATE.

The Era and Journal published
letters last week Directing to the
Hon. VIM. l.. Wilson as one of the
orators of the reunion. The Era
answered the writer in that paper
in manly and patriotic way, and
proved conclusively that the wri-
tiers objections were not well found
ed.
But how about the Journal?
1t published the letter without a
word of comment. AS usual it be-
trays its cowardice. 1t was afraid
it would offend some one if it did
not agree with the writer, and it
feared it would offend some one if
it did agree with the writer, and it
agreed to agree with itself to pub
lish it and say nothing until it could
feel the public pulse.
1t would lead MOI if the mob
was in the majority, and would con-
denim it if it was in the MAJORITY.
Such cowardice is contemplate.
Hon. VIM. L. Wilson was invited
by committee of Grand Army
men-men who fought bravely in
defense of their county. The war
is over with them but the man or
men who offered the insult to Mr..
Wilson-such an insult as was sug-
gested by the Journal, will find the
same brave men ready to defend the
honor of their noble order, and the
good name of their county and
town. We have conversed with
dozens of Grand Army men and
every one of them condemns the
letters in the Era and Journal i'm
the seyerest terms. And while they
compliment the Era on it's manly
reply, they have nothing but con-
demnation for the Journal.
We will have more to say on this
subject liz a future issue. Our time
is limited this week. We will add,
however, that the people are unani-
nous in their condemnation of the
Journal and its writer.
