ID. +. Msckelberger. who left Cald-
well last winter for western. oregon.
returned last Monday a. much wiser
man, and has tale Of woe to tell of
That country which would bring tears
from a stone. After dropping all his
spare change in real estate he tr;,mpea
the country six weeks in search of a
job, and ut last gave up in disgust and
returned to Idaho. Labor is greatly
overdone there, and to a man who has
tried it, the sage brush of Idaho valleys
| looks fairer than the pine clad hills nf
the northwest.

OF Squaw creek. We're in Caldwell this
week to confer with the Caldwell PEG.
pie regarding the state wagon road.
They are justly indignant ut the course
taken by Boise City in the matter, and
had long agreement drawn tn and
signed by many, stating that hence
forth Boise City could whistle for their
patronage. They made a proposition
to bridge the Payette and make this
their supply and trading station. if
we will help them. Of course Cald.
well will help any enterprise which
brings us trade Or patronage, that is
what we are noted for, and if our
Squaw creek friends really want to
come here and show their good faith
by interesting themselves, they need
have no fears but what Caldwell will do
the right thing. The trade from that
country is large and profitable one
for the reason that the average >quaw
creek rancher is "well fixed" with this
worlds goods. Boise City has always
enjoyed the bulk of this trade, but if
the people there want to make change
and will interest themselves enough to
give the movement an earnest and sub.
stantial character, Caldwell will meet
them more than half way with out
stretched hands.
