The County Seat Will be Beautifully
Located.
AN ABUNDANCE OF WATER
to be Shown Up in This
COlumn-Read and Learn About the
New County Seattle Best and only
Good Site in the County.

The three gentlemen appointed by
the Middleton county seat organization,
namely, Messrs. Meth, Watkins and
Plowhead, give the most flattering re-
ports of their reception by the princi-
pal business men and farmers in and
around Nampa, and were promised
strong support, which makes the Mid
dletonites jubilant. They, the commit
tee, described a display of fruit and
vegetables that was shown on the
Nampa depot platform in full view OF
all trains passing. The West bound
passenger train stopped Is minutes for
the passengers to inspect the display.
They all expressed surprise that such
wonderful crops, as shown and de-
scribed to them, would be grown on
this wild sagebrush land. We could
surprise them still more if they would
come into the magnificent Boise valley
in and around Middleton. 1t is con-
coded by friend and foe that we have
the finest town site and the best and
most fertile land in the Boise valley,
not only that, but we have unlimited
water power that can be used without
a single break, both winter and summer.
Then again we have the only flour mill
in the Boise valley, and the miller, Mr..
S. s. Foote, is bound to keep up with
the times by using the very latest roller
patent process. Then again, we have
about a mile from us the beautiful
Willow creek valley which is settling
up very rapidly. Soon there will not be
a foot of land to be had in this section.
Strangers coming here to look for homes
will be shown all the advantages
of Middleton and the surrounding
country. Speaking of our water power,
it will not be one year before some
enterprising capitalist will come IN
here and see the advantages to be de-
rive by an investment. The water
power can be used for an electric plant
to run a trolley from here to Boise city,
Caldwell and Nampa. The grade from
Caldwell to Boise city will be bought
up and used to some purpose and some
of the money recovered that was in
vested in it and has lain idle so long.
L Will venture W SOY IIldC uOC OuO OuC
of ten of the farmers in this valley who
have been visiting the mill and Middle
ton that have ever given a serious
thought of the future prospects or pos
sibilities of Middleton. Come look, ex-
anime and find out for yourselves be-
fore you vote.

strains and patriotism ran high. Here
after the Wigwam will be headquarters
for all political gatherings. Hon. j..
H. Richards was the first speaker to
address the audience. He spoke earn
estly of the essential qualities of a
judge, admonished the people to vote
for no man in whose ability and integ-
rity they had not perfect confidence.
He gave some substantial reasons as to
why he was a Republican and ex-
pounded some of the fundamental
principles. He criticized the other two
parties earnestly but not harshly. Mr..
Richards was we'll received and by his
remarks, which were entirely of an i'm
personal nature, left forcible impress
sion of his peculiar fitness for the Office
to which he has been nominated. Sen
ator Dubois followed with clear and
logical statement of the positions occu-
pied by the various parties on the i'm
portant questions of the day. The
Senator's exposition was forcible and
eloquent and left little room for the
Democrats or Populists to escape the
responsibility or consequences OF their
mistakes. Hon. Willis Sweets speech
was eloquent and impressive to the last
degree. His expose of the Populist Fl
nancial theories was complete. There
were few fiatists in the audience when
the speech was concluded. Altogether
the speeches were instructive and log
ical. There was no bOmbast or yitu-
peration; there was no abuse or full
some praise. The meeting was a
complete success viewed from any
point and will result in much good to
the people of Caldwell and Canyon
county.

The small bridge this side of the
Boise river bridge is reported in bad
condition. On request, attention of
road overseer is called to this matter.
1t was reported that a change in the
mail time had been made lately, to one
hour earlier, but as the post office has
received no notice to that effect, it lis
safe to say, no such change has been
made.
Mr.. Albert Holcomb, of DeLamar,
was visitor in Caldwell, Thursday.
Albert is well known to the old-time
Caldwellite, being one of our first resi-
dente rs, but for the past few years has
resided up the valley, and is now one
of DeLamar's citizens.
Mr.. Neal, Republican State Commit
teeman of Ada county spent few
hours in Caldwell, Wednesday. He re-
ports the Republican outlook in Ada
county extremely bright. Mr.. Neal is
a very pleasant gentleman and well
posted on the situation.
1t is reported that Frank Steunen-
berg has sold 20 acres of his Washing

put up magnificent suburban villa in

MIDDLETON MELANGE.

Bill March, Perry Groves teamster,
came in from DeLamar this evening.
The delegates elected at the Demo
cratic Primary, of Middleton, went
over to Nampa early Wednesday morn
ing, expect they will work up the county
seat question strong, over there.
At meeting of the county seat or
ganization held October End 1894, it
was determined to have the town site
surveyed and laid off in town lots this
week. The committee will communi-
cate with Mr.. Ed Hedden Immediately.
The committee on business is at work
for all that's out or in it. They are get
ting down to work in earnest.
It is heart rending to witness two or
three candidates extending mutual con-
dolence, with their feeling so overcome
that it is necessary to take something.
But they never ask the bystander to in
dulge like they did before the primaries.
We may live to see many bargains sail
up Salt river. So the defeated candi-
dates should take heart, as many
chances yet remain, and they may work
in on the winning side yet.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
Tho Cohorts Of the Unterri6sd Put up Ticket
Considerable Dissatisfaction expressed-Ihe
Old Time stan6bys all SheIyed
Behind Locked Doors.

The Democrats of Canyon county
met in convention Wednesday morning.
Trouble was in the air from the first,
but after an executive session behind
locked doors, all obstacles were brushed
aside and a ticket duly nominated. 1t
is known that a number of serious
breaches have been made and that the
party physicians will have a lively
practice healing up the sores made by the
convention. The tried and true veter-
ans were turned down mercilessly and
the management of the campaign
placed in the hands of raw recruits.
The best informed both in and out OF
the party admit that some serious mis-
takes were made. The force of the
convention appears to have been d.
rected mainly against Hon. Frank
Steunenberg and his friends. Consid-
ering Mr.. Steunenberg's past services
and the fact that he is known to be
one of the brightest men in the party,
the treatment awarded him was, at
least, extremely ungenerous and can
not operate but to the disadvantage
of Democracy in Canyon county. AT
2 o'clock p. m. the doors we're unbarred
and the public admitted. John G. Rice
of Caldwell. was made permanent
Chairman and John Hart, of Nampa
secretary. The following ticket wa:
then nominated:
John E. Stearns, Nampa, Sheriff
David Lamb, Payette, Treasurer
Steven A. Dempsey, Emmett, Probate
Judge; Edward Hedden, Caldwell, sur
veyor; Abner E. Galloway, Caldwell
Coroner; Fred G. Mock, Nampa, Dist
Clerk; L. J. Huff, Parma Assessor; W
c. Johnson, Payette, Commissioner; Ed
ward B. Smith, Lower Boise, Commits
sioner; John C. Rice, Caldwell, Com
missioner.
The ticket is replete with surprise
and painful disappointments. Rober
!. Boone, of Caldwell, was expected to g
the nomination for treasurer, but wa
blocked by the friends of H. K. Hartle.
with the result that Payette got ava
with the plum. There is slight coo
ness reported between the friends G
Messrs. Boone and Hartley. The non
ination of Mr.. Mock for district cler
is said to weigh little heavily o
Captain Stearns' stomach. But let I
hope that the sores will all be heale
e over and peace come DER the spirit {
the Democratic dream before the rud
awakening comes.

Light for the Stable.

Intelligent dairy farmers know that it
Is possible 10 have a stable light and we'll
ventilated. and at the same time so warm
that water will not freeze in it during the
coolest weather. Plenty of windows are
needed, and it is we'll to whitewash the
whole interior at least once a year. To
accomplish this at the least expense Of
time, make a whole barrel Of whitewash
and apply it very thicl1ly with a broom.
Begin by sweeping the sides, partitions
and ceiling. Where the surface is uneven
a force pump with a spray nozzle is eX-
cellent for applying the whitewash. The
whitewash must first be rubbed through
a sieve to remove the humps, or they will
clog the valves of the pump. Keep the
windows from being splashed by lacking
old bags or blankets over them. Lime
is purifying and deOdorizing, and makes
it easier TO keep the stable clean and in
order. Another reason for providing
abundant light IS to promote the health
and vitality OF animals A COW in a win
ter dairy is like a person engaged in a
sedentary employment She cannot re-
ceive the stimulus TO her vitality that
horse. for instance, gets from labor in the
sunshine. A cow cannot do her best IN
less she is made comfortable in a light
and cheerful stable.-American Agricul-
turalist.
