A little girl came into THE tribune
Office and asked for FIVE cents worth Of
white paper. On receiving it she said,
"charge it, "Who to-" was asked.
"Me,' said the little one as she marched
out. 1t was duly charged
10. Baker, who was once wicked
enough to be a citizen of Cayuse county,
and who still holds the friendship of
this entire city, was in town last Sun
day, but SO thoroughly disguised by
mammoth smile that few old friends
| recognized him. If he had had sign
painted on his back reading SIN
papa" it would not have made a palmer
case. Here's to J. O. b. Jr.
Gov. Wiley telegraphed the offer of
the Worlds Fair commissionership to
Mr.. Bunting, of Blacl1foot recently,
and the tender was promptly declined.
The governor has made it almost i'm
possible for any self-rcspecting man to
accept tho position by accepting De
Lamar's offer to pay the commissioner
, $500 q year out Of his own pocket.
Who wants to serve the state under the
pay of q private Individual? The
Worlds Fair commissioner for the
great state Of Idaho with De Lamar's
silver collar on would be spectacle
equaled only by our four senators.
Lieutenant Colonel George Frederick
Hinton, ex-aide-de camp to Gov. Will
ley, ex-society editor and Pocatello
Indian war correspondent of tho Idaho
Statesman, ex3oise editor of the
Anaconda Standard, ex-secretary of
Ladies Relief Society, ex-president of
fire company, and ex-De Lamar's pri-
vate secretary, has gone to Dwight.
Illinois, to hit the bi-chloride of gold
remedy u lick in company with Gen.
Roberts.-Doise Democrat.
Tim Reagan, of Boise City. was in
town Wednesday. Mr.. Reagan is pres
idsnt Of the Silver City Telegraph line,
and was down on business connected
with it. Since this linz was extended
to Re Lamar, jealousy or some other
equally absurd reason, has controlled
the management to such an extent
that our business men as we'll rs the
De Lamar mine find it Improbable to
use the line, and business on it has
decreased accordingly.
Ralph Cakes is a genius as we'll a
successful and enterprising merchant.
He has wind mill at his residence to
pump water for his lawn in tho sum-
msr, but which heretofore has not
earned it's feed in the winter. The
other day, however, Ralph was struck
with happy idea, which he immedi-
, ately put into execution. 1Ic got saw
, blade and by neat arrangement no 50
so attached it to the wind mill that il
now puts in its time saving wood
instead of loating around doing moth

II Col. Stevenson has very intelligent

Col. hides behind stack of lumber an(

some strange, unaccountable reason
tho brute always lies down in front o
tho saloon.
Gov. Wiley has made n report on tn
