The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1899-07-08

During the past week Idaho
has moved along without any
stirring events except such as
have been inspired by patriotism.
The Fourth was pretty generally
celebrated and from all reports
we judge that unusual enthusiasm
prevailed. Boise celebrated the
day in a very creditable style and
with much display. The orator
of the day was Lieutenant Gov
ernor Hutchinson and he is re-
ported to have made an excep-
tionally vigorous Grafton. One
Of his striking passages, referring
to the situation in the Philippines,
was: alt is not a question of
politics; it is question Of honor.
Ivoted against Major Mckinley;
but until we are out of this trouble
l am for Idaho as against a Fill
Pine, l am for our President as
against Agulnaldo." That is
sound, patriotic talk; and it is
hoped that Mr.. Hutchinson will
permit those high and patriotic
sentiments to be his constant
guide. and not do with them as
eloquent men too often do with
their noblest inspirations-wrap
them up with the discarded man
scripts only to be used as refer
ence on future state occasions.
Usually THE TRIBUNE does not
attach much Importance to the
decIamatory outbursts of Fourth
of July orators, but there is more
than common signifcances in the
language Of Mr.. Hutchinson at
this time. 1t seems that he felt
impelled to define his attitude on
the most prominent political issue
of the day, and positively an
nounCed that he had shifted from
where he stood little over two
years ago. Then he stood with
silver regardless of consequences
now he stands with his country
regardless of silver. He is now
on sound ground, and we predict
that as he is an intelligent anc
thoughtful man, he will not agar
hastily abandon it.
1t was announced that Hon
Fred T. Dubois, ex-senator from
Idaho, would crate at Baker City
Oregon, but at this writing NJ
reports have been received from
the afflicted town. 1t is safe Il
say, however, that Mr.. Dubois
enjoyed himself very much. III

should Be Given Mechanical TraInIns.

for at least a certain order of
minds, there should be more prac-
teal application; that not enough |
boys and girls are given mechanic
al training. That is no doubt
true, but if possible boys and girls
who learn trades should be given
the advantage OF a scientific edu-
cation also. Half the people who
work in factories and around for
ges, do not understand the process
SEES through which the changes
in the material in their own hands
are wrought. AS Tyndall would
say "they are toiling with closed
eyes" We look out at night and
marvel at the consultations above
us, and do not think that each star
was called out of the nebula of
space and by the action of certain
natural laws all were finally round
ed and condensed and lighted, un-
til at last they took on the pomp
and majesty which fill the nights
with splendor, and kindle the adj
miration and reverence of every
thoughtful mind. Steel is made
from iron, but how many men en-
gagged in the work of conversion
understand what the chemical
change is, or how it is produced?
They work with their intellectual
eyes closed: suppose they were
all adopts, knowing exactly all the
attributes of the original metal
and what is necessary to add and
to eliminate in order to produce
the superior steel, who knows to
what investigation that would
lead and what new miracles might
form those same elements be
performed? And it is easy to
see that such a worker, instead
of being a part of the machinery
of the place, would, in little
while become a directing mind
Then in little while he would
begin to draw away from the
mere mechanics around him; if
he had leisure after working
hours, he would be found pur-
suing his Investigations; uncon'
sciously the thought would stea

Jurors Were Afraid.

Oklahoma City, Nov. 29.-Sev-
eral jurors of the grand jury,
which is in session here, wrote let
ters lately to Judge 3. F. Burwell,
district judge, saying they were
afraid to investigate certain charges
before them for fear it would en-
danger their lives. The Judge sum-
moned the jury before him today
and read them a severe lecture on
their duty as American citizens.
saying to:them that they were to do
their duty as men and not consider
whether it endangered their lives
or not.
The charges which some of the
jurors did not want to investigate
are supposed to refer to the Eick
murder case. Eick was shot at
this place and his murderers are
still at large.

1t will doubtless surprise most
people to learn that any soldier of
the British army who is captured
by the enemy gets his pay stopped
at once. Therefore the l 900 Eng
lish warriors who are now playing
foot ball inside the racetrack at
Pretoria are in no sense of the
word wage earners. A further
provision of the army regulations
allows an investigation to be made
after a soldier has recovered his
liberty and the authorities may, if
they see fit, turn over the back pay
to the released prisoner. There is
NO obligation on their part to do
this, however.

Laburi Not Yet Well.

Maitre Labori is still at Samois,
near Fontainebleau. The bullet in
his back causes him considerable suf-
fering and prevents him from stand
ing upright. The bullet will only be
removed when it leaves the muscles
to which it at present adheres. In
this way it is hoped that a simple in
cision of the skin will suffice to
bring about its extraction.

TRAGEDY AT WILBURTON.
Deputy Peckeupaugh Attempts Arrest
aad Is Shot Through the Heart.

0Ou 10 0hVN ~DS As~@'~"
AT Wilburton last night about
$50 twelve or fifteen shots rang
out on the still night air. and when
the smoke had cleared away it was
found that Deputy FL. Peckenpaugh
was shot through the heart. Death
was instantaneous Postmaster
Cox closed the Office and started
home. The night was very dark
and he had some difficulty in keep
ing out of the mud owing to the
bad conditions of the street. Two
or three men, he could not tell the
exact number, halted him and de-
manded his money. He refused
and was knocked down and robbed.
His cries for help were heard by
Deputy Peckenpaugh who hap
pened to be on the street in COM
pany with another man whose name
we did not learn. When Pecken-
paugh heard the cries for help he
broke and run in the direction from
whence the voice came. After Cox
was knocked down and his money
secured, the robbers made a break
to get awav and run right into
Peckenpaugh who was coming from
the opposite direction. They were
commanded to halt and answered
with shot. Twelve or fifteen shots
rang out in rapid succession, with
result as stated above.
1t is reported that the robbers
secured $240.
As far as known none of the rob-
bers were wounded, and left be-
hind no clue with which to identify
them with the exception of a mask
and slicker which were dropped in
the excitement. The slicker and
mask may possibly lead to the iden'
tifcation of the robbers but the
chances are meagre.
The ball that killed Peckenpaugh
was a chance shot, owing to the
darkness Of the night it was inn
possible to shoot accurately.
