iA! Owl Az S't!o"cli, WIS seriously
stabbed by a man named Billings. at
Falks Store last Saturday. We do not
know what provoked the assault, but
in our humble opinion. a coward who
would attack one armed man with a
knife should be the central figure in q
neck tie party.
We are in receipt of the catalogue of
the College of Idaho for 1892 so, located
at Caldwell. a perusal of the work
shows the college to be IN tlourishinr
condition, and one of the leading edu-
cational institutions of the state. The
catalogue bears the imprint of the
CALDWELL TRIBUNE, and the neat
tasty manner in which it is printed
reflects great credit upon that Office
Montpelier Observer.

We are informed that the Nampa
people expect to begin work on their
new railroad in very few days Pres
ident Purdam has hit upon II plan by
which the necessity of bridging Snake
river will be obviated. The approach
from this side is long and steep, and
by crowding on steam it is hoped that
sufficient momentum may be created
to compel the train to jump the river
and strike the track Oh the other side.
The theory is pretty and no doubt as
practical as many others we could
mention.
Take advantage of the closing out
sale on clothing at "The Finest" They
can and will save you money.
The following clipping from the
Asotin Sentinel, has created quite an
excitement in the Bachelors club here.
Several worthy members trying to
raise railroad ticket to go north:
I'm the Indian camp on the Grand
Ronde river are seventeen manageable
Indian girls, some of whom want white
men for husbands and shun the idea of
marrying one of their own race. The
father of one of these girls offers an
inducement of 200 head of good horses
to some young white man who will
marry his daughter. The old Indian
states he must be young man of
good character and address aud able to
provide his wife with good home"

Dunbar.
The platform adopted by the Cald-
we'll peoples party convention appears

with so many errors in it caused by the
illegibility Of the manuscript, perhaps,
as it was hurriedly written that we are
unable to correct it from memory, and
so do not publish it. However, its
publication is premature, and should
have not been permitted, inaSmuch
as the convention did not complete
its labors. 1t will appear in the Sen
tinel corrected, as soon as the nOmi-
nations are made.-BOise Sentinel.
Our Boise contemporary is probably
little jealous insomuch as THE
TRIBUNE got in scoop and gave its
readers the proceedings of the conven'
ton in full. The Statesman failed and
had to apologize for not being able to
obtain the resolutions, as did the Sen
tinel. The resolutions as printed in
THE TRIBUNE are correct, word for
word, as adopted by the convention
and while we probably do not endorse
all of them we see nothing in them OF
which to be ashamed. We know moth
ing OF illegible manuscript, as we went
to the trouble to have reporter present
