county died in Salt Lake City, while
under treatment for the removal of a
tumor in the stomach. Mr.. WOOZLEY
was we'll known and highly respected
throughout the eastern part of the
state. He was an honorable and affa-
BILE gentleman. Few men ever met
BILLY WOOsLEY without forming an
attachment for him stronger than for
common men. He came to Utah from
Wales many years ago in advance of
parents and relatives except one sister.
His courteous and obliging disposition,
even as a boy, made him warm friends
everywhere. BY hard work and the
closest economy he was enabled to as,
sist materially in bringing his parents
to this country and helping them after
they arrived. His life was constant
struggle until recent years, when for
tunes smiles grew warmer. 1t is pitt
full that he could not have lived to en-
joy more of the reward of his labors
He leaves wife and one child to
mourn him and hosts of friends whose
last prayer, moist with tears, will be
peace to those ashes-a good man hath
been taken from among us.

Republican candidates are WILLIAM
IRETON for assessor and JOHN +. kEE-
GAN for county clerk, both strong men.
Prominent business men and Republi
cans indicate determination to stand
by Mr.. KEEGAN at all hazard. They
say he has given excellent satisfaction
as an officer, has had only half term

dorsement by the Republicans of Pay

take sides in the local contest, and
merely gives facts without comment.
From now until the day Of the conven

sentiment as accurately as possible, in
the hope that ticket will be put in

the best men be put forward, and

ABOUT RAILROADS.

There are something's about the dis
position to fight railroads which THE
TRIBUNE does not exactly understand
We are told that the railroads are the
greatest robbers and oppressors of hu-
manity the world ever knew. The
companies are denounced as monstros-
tiles, the managers and directors, as
scoundrels and thieves, and the stock
holders as victimized dupes. From all
this, one would naturally conclude that
the country would be happier without
railroads. AS far back as memory runs,
though, the people have been Glamour
ing for railroads. Wherever you see
sparsely settled country, without a
railroad, the inhabitants are praying
for the advent of the iron horse. They
say the country can never develop and
prosper until the railroad comes.
Every town, village and hamlet that
is off the line of railroad is agitated the
year round with movements to induce
a road to come to them. Public meet
lngs called to discuss railroad possibili-
ties are always we'll attended and every
proposition that promises railroad,
enthusiastically received and endorsed.
The farmers, mechanics, merchants
and politicians vie with each other in
Offering substantial inducements. b.
muses. from ten thousand to hundred
thousand dollars are easily secured and
cheerfully contributed. Yet railroads
are looked upon as unmitigated curses.

of railroads struck us, it used to cost

PEOPLE Of Caldwell and Nampa will
be interested in the following item
clipped from the Statesman:
1.-THE work Of constructing the big dam at
Orchard Farm was commenced yesterday The
plans for this immense structure were prepared
BY Herschel, the engineer Of the Niagara Falls
company. After the dam was washed out by
lsst spring flood, temporary dam was built. .

MISREPRESENTATION.

The Nampa Progress is laboring un
der the apprehension that the Railroad
Company has uttered direct affront
to the beautiful CITY of Nampa. We
are convinced that no offense was in.
tended by tine announcement that ar
rangements had been made whereby
passengers would not be compelled to
remain over at Nampa on account of
late trains. The Progress is too severe
in denouncing it as an outrage. The
simple fact is that on account of wash
outs, the east bound train has for sew
eral weeks been from one to two hours
late. Now if the Boise branch should
run promptly on schedule time, it
would leave Nampa before the arrival of
the east bound, so passengers for Boise
would be compelled to remain at Nam
pa until noon of the following day. AS
a matter of pleasure and recreation,
most passengers would unquestionably
enjoy prolonged stay amidst the de-
lights of Nampa; but business is often
so pressing, that purely pleasurable
considerations must be sacrificed We
believe that all the railway officials bad
in mind was provision for the ext
gencies of business. There doesn't ap-
pear to be anything in the announce
ment prohibiting passengers from tar
rying in the beautiful Junction City, a
day, or even week, if they so incline;
and that fact ought have great weight
and palliating influence with the Prog
ress. It's objection that Nampa visi-
tors to the state capital are seriously
delayed and Inconvenience by the ar
rangement would be very forcible, were
it not for the fact that instead of going
to Boise they ought to come to Caldwell.
If our Nampa neighbors will just get
in the habit of paying their attentions
to the Magic City, they will receive the
most courteous and generous treatment.
They will be entertained cheerfulIy and
honorably and not subjected to onerons
and dishonest hotel tariffs. Knowing
and approaching the merits of our
Nampa neighbors as the people of
Caldwell do, we take pleasure in ex-
tending to them a general and cordi-
all invitation to come and see us often
and make themselves right at home.
They should not suffer Boise imposi-
tons any longer.

applause) Who have they turned out
of the church? Nobody. Why? Be-
cause you can't turn them out. You
don't know where the majority is.
(Laughter) The majority in one chnrch
is for free silver; the majority in
another is against it, and you dare not
take a vote. You just endorse every
