EMMETT DITCH MEETING.
A 0oodly Number Of Citizens Discuss important
Matters.

According to announcement ditch
meeting was held at Emmett Saturday,
for the purpose of hearing Engineer
Hedden's report and public discussion of
the ditch proposition, Hon. Ralph Cow
den, presided and about 100 substantial
citizens were present. Payette was
represented by IS people aud Caldwell
had a number of prominent representa-
tives, among them Hon. NJ. B. Gwinn,
Col. Stevenson and others. According
to Hedden's report the proposed ditch
will cost about $4,000 which is some
what in excess of the generally esti-
mated amount, but perhaps, something
less than actual cost. The people of
Emmett were enthusiastic on the pro-
ject and propose to carry it out. Com
mittees have been appointed to prose
cute preliminary work and another
general meeting will be held at the
town of Payette, Saturday, February
10. After concluding the ditch bust
ness, some considerable railroad talk
was had, and unity of the Payette
Valley on railroad proposition was
urged. The railroad matter will also
be discussed at the next general meet
ing. The people of Canyon county will
watch with pleasure the effort of EN-
mett's enterprising citizens to construct
a farmers ditch and will fervently
pray that their effort may be crowned
with success.

ment of forgetfulness, leaned back
against curtain which refused to sup
port him and the Judge went over
backward Altogether, so far as an
outsider could judge, the meeting was
harmonious and enthusiastic. There
were present, perhaps, hundred peo-
pie, and they all seemed to be men Of
age and earnestness. Judging from
appearance. we would take them nearly
all to be farmers. The Populists claim
that they can carry this county by
considerable majority, and propose to
make determined fight In his speech,
Mr.. Gum urged the people not to be
deferred from joining the party because
of some things in the platform which
they could not believe. He said that
when the state convention assembled
platform would be perfected that
would suit the majority. THE Peo-
pies party" said he, lis not hide bound
about platform declarations. Let
everybody come in and help make a
platform that will suit the majority of
the people. The party is in forma-
tive condition and will make its plat.
form to suit the wants of the country"
Nobody will question the liberality of
that doctrine.

POPULIST CONVENTION.
Canyon County Organized and Success Prog
nosticatet- Stirring Resolution Passed
Speeches and Declarations.

Pursuant to call the Populist dele
gates met at Caldwell last Saturday
and effected a county organization.

man and Prof. Hemphill, secretary.
The following delegates were accred-
tied.

In the evening public meeting was
held, at which the platform was read
and approved. A resolution favoring
ownership and control of the liquor
traffic by the state was rejected. The
platform endorses the regular Popu-
list creed and favors irrigation legisla-
ton on the lines advocated by the
TRIBUNE. Locally, the platform prom
ises a reduction of the fees Of county
officers. The initiative and referendum
idea caused little flutter but finally
got through all right. Captain Gum
made an impassioned speech which
was attentively listened to. He pre-
dicted sweeping success for the party
in the next campaign and foretold the
decline and fall of the money power
with the rise and spread of the Peoples
party. He hit Governor Mcconnell
side wipe for stealing his (Gunn's) irri-
CATION thunder, and advocated as a
new and original idea with himself,
Hon. George j. Lewis, silver storage
currency system. He urged thorough
organization and said that organizers
would soon be sent into every part of
the state. Particular attention would
be paid to the Mormon people, and, the
speaker claimed to have encouraging
reports of great dissatisfaction with
the old parties in the Mormon counties.
Mr.. Gum was sanguine of the ulti-
mate success of the Peoples party.
Mr.. Hemphill being called for respond
ed with a poetic defamation, which,
he said, in the absence of preparation,
was the best he could do. MIR. Hemp
hill acclaimed in and earnest and i'm
pressive style, having great effect with
the audience. In response to call, DIR.
Wright spoke few minutes giving
his ideas on monetary matters. The
gentlepan's voice made it difficult for
him to speak and consequently his re-
marks were short though clear and log
ical. Mr. Templeton took prominent
part in the debate on resolutions as did
Messrs Galloway, Pease and Carter.

IDAHO's PRUNE INDUSTRY.
The Production in Three South Idaho Counties
for 1893 G iven at 100000 Pounds.


Mr.. Hunter yesterday forwarded SEN
atOr ShOup his report. In his letter
Mr.. Hunter explains he has been un-
able to secure as complete compila
ton as he would like, owing to the short
time in which to look up the matter,
and the failure of many fruit growers
to respond to his queries. Mr.. Hunters
figures are as follows:
Number of pounds :cured in
lOS1 1879. AUO,OVO
1898. ........ 100000
Number of pounds green,
raised and shipped in 1892. 100000

Approximate value Of crop
Amount of money invested. 100000
Present value in acreage. 80. 100000
Number of people in the bust
ness 500
Continuing, Mr.. Hunter says these
figures cover only the product of the
valleys of Boise, Payette and Weiser, he
being unable to hear from the north in
time to send more complete statement.
Taking into consideration the orchards
that will bear this year for the first
time, he estimates the 1894 prune crop
will be three times as large as the crop
for the year just closed. The protection
afforded by the Mckinley law has built
up the prune industry of the state and
with such protection continued the
prune growers assert it will shortly be-
come one Of the leading industries. The
the industry and just at time, too,
when the Idaho prune is getting firm

Mr. Hunter also sent Senator Sh0up
box of prunes containing two varieties
the Silver and Italian. The fruit was
grown by Robert Wilson, OF this city,
who is largely interested in the bust
