j. F. Lackey, of Nyssa, was in

Lackey is enthusiastic regarding tho
resources of the great Malheur county,

among the leading counties of Oregon.

Ed. Lockwood, editor of the Weiser
Signal, and mascot of tho Weiser ball
nine. is making some great boasts
about next season. The editor of THE
TRIBUNE having declined to serve, the
Caldwell boys have given up all hope
of securing as homely mascot as the
Weisers have, and therefore are laying
low. We are negotiating for Bill
Glenn, of the Payette Transcript, how
ever, and If salary will tempt him, he
is our meat. Caldwell win then defy
the world.
I'm write up of tho town the Boise
Hornet says that from 10000 to 1,000,-
600 tons of wool are shipped from Cald-
well annually. This knocks US out.
We had a sneaking idea that as an all
around prevaricator The TRIBUNE
was no SLOUGH, but we throw up the
sponge and quit. We know when we
are "done up" and hereby promise
not to lie out of our class any more.
1t is possible, however, that the Hornet
meant pounds.
should THE TRIBUNE fail to ap-
pear one of these fine Saturday morn
ings, our readers must not be alarmed.
We are expecting q summons from
Washington every hour to appear
before the committee of investigation
ON the ''Silver Pool" It is a we'll
known and indisputable fact that The
TRIBUNE took in 90 in silver in sin
gle day, which it boxed up and buried,
waiting for the rise in silver. Although
every precaution was taken to keep the
matter secret, President Harrison
smelled the conspiracy. and sent THE
TRIBUNE's name, along with other sus.
poets, to the committee. We have too
much at stake to back down now and
propose to fight it out on these lines
We frankly admit being in the "pooi''
% worth and defy Congress and the
President to their worst.
