The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1892-01-23

VIM. Cupp drove 2O0O head Of sheep
through Caldwell last Monday, on their
way to Lower Boise. where they will
be fed the remainder or the winter.
They were just off the range and fat as
butter. This has been great winter
for sheep.
Hon. Frank Steunenberg, of the
CALDWELL TRIBUNE, was in Payette
Saturday afternoon and called on the
Independent. We were enjoying our
first s!eighride of the season at the
time and did not meet the gentleman.
Call again "Steuney" and we will open
a fresh keg Of ink.-Payette Indepen-
dent.
James Baxter, whiting in the Boise
Democrat says: when Boise shall
again adorn herself, in her garments
of greed ami flowers. she will present
an appearance that. ETC. Greed and
flowers is good, and leads one to sup
pose that the writer fully appreciates
the condition of affairs at the capital.
Al. Needham, the leading merchant
of Nampa, was in town "Wednesday
and enlisted in THE TRIBUNE army
for one year. lie says that the Masons
Of Nampa are taking steps toward
organizing a lodge at that place. We
rather like the looks of Needham. and
size him up for something of rus
tier"
! Mr.. T. IIutchins was up from the
river Saturday on his way to Boise val
! ley in search of stray cattle which he
had learned were around and about
Caldwell. He will probably drive them,
as many as can be found, to the Wright
! place, which Mr.. IIutchins has rented
, for the winter, just below Caldwell.
lie has now 400 head at that place
Mountain Home Range and Valley.
You can't set that man Jim Gwinn
far enough away not to hear him. One
would naturally suppose that being
showed in at De Lamar would squelch
most men, but having occasion to talk
to Boise City over the telephone the
other day, the first sound which greeted
our ears was that old familiar horse
laugh, second only to E. j. Harness
Drop that phone, Jim, and 60 to work
Ex-senator Mcconnell, of Moscow
says he has good reason to believe tina
the present boundary line between
Idaho and Washington is twenty mile
too far east, owing to mistake in tn
surveys. In other words, the state o
Washington is enjoying revenue from
territory which belongs to Idaho. Tn
new line would leave Spokane Falls il
this state. The Senator is now il
Washington, ID. c., and proposes t.
thoroughly investigate the matter
If his conclusions should be correc
and the boundary re-established, no,
long would South Idaho keep the stat
capital? This is a proposition for Bots
politicians to figure on.
