The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1892-08-06

In a recent issue Jake Horn, of the
Nampa Leader. hoisted the name of
a. Is. Moss, of Payette, for governor,
and filed half column with the we'll
merited virtues of that gentleman.
We have it from reliable authority
that the Leader" ordered new mallet
and one dozen guage pins the same
week. Straws show which way the
wind blows,
1t is reported that Col. John E.
Stearn will absolutely refuse the NOM
nation for governor on the democratic
ticket While Mr.. Stearns appreciates
the high honor to be conferred, his I
duties as Worlds Fair commissioner
renders it impossible for him to accept.
This is probably the first instance on
record where politician would not |
sacrifice his personal Interests to serve
the public.
The mystery connected with the
flowing beard now being cultivated by
| TRIBUNE the big has at last been
explained. 1t has leaked out that he
is ambitious to run for governor on
people ticket, and is growing hair on
his face in which to sprinkle hay seed.
He offers 81 a bushel for good, reliable,
vote catching timothy or clover seed
"Old Peff," Honest john and DR..
Wright may as we'll hunt their holes.
1t seems as though the report that
B. 7. Templeton would accept the
position of secretary of state is
a mistake and a positive in
jury to the aspirations of that
gentleman. What's the use monkey
ing with state Office "that hasn't sal
airy enough to make it respectable"
when the U. s. senate is yawning for
men who know how to appreciate
good thing?
Payette has received quite "boom"
upon thu candidacy of A. B. Moss for
governor. The "Magic City, cannot
afford to overlook anything of an adver-
Using nature, and to be strictly in the
swim TIE TRIBUNE suggests the
name of Monte B. Gwinn, as the only
republican in the state who can hope
to wrest the gubernatorial chair from
the democrats in the coming contest
He is the coming Messiah of the &. o.
p. AS THE TRIBUNE is on the other
side it shows this path to the republi-
cans through local pride alone. Will
they grasp the golden opportunity?
Uncle DanI Bacon has taken him
self out the "hands of his friends" and
, intends engineering his own move
ments in the future. This action is to
, be regretted. Never in the history of
, the state were good men in such
demand as now. We trust Mr.. Bacon
will reconsider his action before the
nomination for attorney general is
made.
T. f. Picotte, of the HALEY Times
attended the republican press conven
. ton at Boise City last Monday. While
the above Wentioned gentleman is no
