Window Shade Hints.

In replacing a window shade that
has been torn from the roller, use
nothing but One-ounce lacks; longer
tacks iniure the spring.
Always fasten the round hole
bracket on the right hand side of
the window.
Always place roller in brackets
with shade rolled up.
To strengthen the spring, draw
the shade down few revolutions,
remove roller from brackets, roll
up shade and replace.
If the spring is too strong, remove
roller from brackets with shade
rolled up, unroll few turus and
replace.
If the shade is tackled on proper
ly it will hang toward the window.
To fit shade to window with
inside shutters, measure inside
molding next to shutters.
To shorten a roller for window
with inside shutters, measure from
tip on spring side and allow half
inch for roller end; it will then roll
freely in the brackets.
Always see that roller is cut true
and that roller end is free from i'm
projections arising from casting.
TO properly wind a spring roller
for ordinary length shades, 15 to
16 revolutions are sufficient.
In mounting shade on spring
roller, place spring end to the left.
A piece of bread, not too fresh,
will remove all dirt from shades;
never use oils.

The Taking of Sandwiches.

That convenient arrangement
which perpetuates the name of its
originator, the Earl of Sandwich, is
a great favorite with pick nickers.
Sandwiches to be good must be
nicely made. The bread must be
neither too stale nor too fresh; it
must be cut into thin pieces not
larger than three inches by four,
daintily spread with butter and
two slices put together with some
relish between.
Ham sandwiches are the most
common. The ham should be well
boiled; it is then chopped very fine
or grated, spread evenly over one
slice of bread, second placed over
it. and the two slices pressed gently
but firmly together. The ham may
be seasoned by incorporating a
small quantity of mixed mustard
with it before spreading on the
bread, or it may be left plain. The
mustard, however, is generally
liked, and adds to the relish.
When it is not convenient to boil a
whole ham and a small number of
sandwiches are to be made, the ham
may be nicely cooked by cutting
into thin slices and steaming until
thoroughly done.
Sandwiches may also be made
out of light rolls, but bread is best
for the purpose. They may be
varied indefinitely by using differ
emf kinds of Filings. The following
will be found nice relishes for filling
and will give considerable variety.
Place one cupful of grated or
finely chopped ham in an earthen
bowl and two teaspoonfuls of mixed
mustard, one-third cupful Of any
kind of sour pickle minced as fine
as possible, and two tablespoonfuls
of melted butter. Stir and work
together until all is mixed into a
smooth mass. The yolks of two
hard boiled eggs may be added or
omitted, as preferred.
Corned or plain boiled meat
makes good sandwiches. Chop
fine, to each cupful add one level
teaspoonful salt, one of pepper one
of mustard, two tablespoonful of
melted butter, or four of the water
in which the meat was boiled. Mix
thoroughly.
A good spiced filing can be made
by changing the seasoning; instead
of the pepper and mustard use one
third teaspoonful of all-spice, not
quite so much cinnamon, and a
small pinch of ginger.
Tongue for sandwiches should be
Clipped into very tiny pieces or
chopped. A small quantity of
mustard on it is great improve
ment, but it will require no other
seasoning. Still another filing is
made as follows: drain from the
liquor, and look them over careful
ly to remove all bits of shell. With
sharp knife cut each oyster into
three or four pieces. Crate stale
bread or crackers; to each cupful of
prepared oysters take one cupful
of crumbs and enough liquor to
partially moisten. Have ready a
pan with small quantity of butter;
turn in the oysters after they have
been well mixed with the crumbs,

WATER WORKS.

Last April we had a town election
here in Caldwell and the issue was
water works, or no water works. In
mass convention, candidates fer city
office were nominated on a pro- water
work platform and subsequently elected.
Immediately on the organization of
the new council a committee was
selected to investigate and report on
the water works proposition. The
committee discharged its duties ably
and submitted report showing the
cost of plant, from lateral stop cocks
to steam boilers. There the matter
seems to have rested. The inference is
that either the cost was considered too
great by the council, or the character
of the proposed plant did not suit.
The TRIBUNE thinks that both objec-
lions will mold. Now, the question is
whether or not the water works project
shall be abandoned or whether investi-
cations shall be prosecuted in some
other direction. There appears to be a
strong sentiment in favor of some kind
of water system with a considerable
leaning towards an experimental effort
towards obtaining artesian water
People who profess to know, say that
the chances for obtaining artesian
water are extremely favorable and that
an experimental well could be sunk at
a moderate cost. If this be true, would
it not be good idea to submit the
proposition of making an experiment
to a vote of the people. If it should
prove a failure, the loss would not be
great, aud il successful, the gain meal
culable. The original cost of wafer
system is not the main thing to be con-
sidered. 1t is the cost Of operation that
determines the question of economy
We rather incline to the belief, that
some effort should be made towards OBJ
tanning a natural supply before resort
ing to expensive mechanical methods.
The tendency all over the country is to-
wards municipal ownership of water
works and wherever practicable ma
lures resources are appealed to. Be-
fore erecting plant involving a large
original outlay and constant taxtion for
maintenance. Caldwell might we'll af-
ford to make an intelligent experiment.
Possibly, nature is ready and anxious
to provide free of charge what men
and steam can not give without exact
ting endless tribute. Experts declare
that artesian water bubbles h the sur.
face on the FROST place, and that th1le
is scarcely any question Of obtaining a
good flow, under high pressnrssat that
point. It ought to be Investigated.

stance. We cite this as an example of
the way in which the public lands are
acquired. Thousands aud thousands
of acres have been patented on perjured
evidence. and are now being held for
speculative and monopolistic purposes.
How can any country progress under
such conditions? The land is all ap-
propriated and mostly by men who do
not cultivate and never intended to do
so. The few honest settlers are sur
rounded by miles OF sage brush desert,
remote from each other, hampered by
every Inconvenience; their lives one
prolonged day of misery, and their
crops the prey of destructive pests and
animals. There will never be progress
and prosperity here until perjury ceases
to pass current for public lands; there
will never be progress and prosperity
SO long as men are permitted to con-
,rol vast areas of land, acquired by
fraud, and held for pure speculation
The government-the people-have
been robbed of thousands of acres OF
land by processes similar to that which
will likely be enacted at the Boise land
office next Tuesday, We believe there
! are land sharks, today, watching fol
the completion of that proof. They
are the friends and protectors of the
widow and fatherless In the name OF
sweet charity, they will advance lit
tie money to cover expenses of making
proof and, when patent issues, by the
grace Of GOD, they will clap mort
gage on the widows mite and another
one hundred and sixty acres of the
peoples domain will be engaged in the
unearned increment business If no
land was held in this county except
that which has been acquired by fraud
and subterfuge, there would be room
and inducement for hundreds of indus
trious and desirable settlers. But in a
country where neither land nor water
can be acquired without purchase and
rental, progress will necessarily be slow
and hating. Every legitimate interest
is wrapped up in rapid settlement and
extensive cultivation. Speculative
land holdings is the concrete for delay
loss and disappointment, and fraudu.
lent and perjured proof is an unmiti
gated curse.

HOW ABOUT IT?

In the late Republican convention,
the question of irrigation seems to
have been overlooked or ignored. The
question naturally arises, has the Re-
publican party, as an organization, any
views on the subject? There are two
distinct theories with respect to just,
economical and practical water distri-
button. The basic ideas are clearly
defined and the ultimate ends are
wildly divergent. One il private owner
ship of waterways and private manage
mtnt of water distribution for private
profit with incidental public benefit:
the other is popular ownership and
popular management with view,
solely, to public benefit and general
prosperity. 1t is not the purpose at
this time to discuss the merits of these
theories or the feasibility of their prac-
tical application. We have both sys-
TENS in operation and the evidence OF
facts and experience as to which is the
more satisfactory and successful. The
irrigation question is not one which
can be passed in silence. 1t demands
solution; and while it is not political
question there is grave question as to
tie wisdom of any political party
which ignores or sights it. The Re-
Publican party, in convention, should
have taken some kind Of stand on
tits question; and the fact that it did
not, will he charged to one of three,
Of all three, things: Incompetency to

for the substantial prosperity of arid
Idaho, or plain cowardice. The party
can ill-afford to rest under either i'm
putation. II the omission of an irriga-
ton plank was an inadyertency. it
should be corrected; if it was ignored

recover nearly 50, 600, 900, alleged to
have been unlawfully made through
Northern Pacific deals. The matter was
