VOLUNTEERS RECEPTION

There is a manifest and COM
mendable disposition all over the
State to give the Idaho volunteers
upon their return grand, public
reception with speeches and brass
bands aud things. That is un-
questionably the way everybody
in Idaho feels, but it is just as well
to keep in mind that the Idaho
boys are human and have ideas
of their own. Probably nine out
Of ten of them would rather be
turned loose in San Francisco and
have a weeks good time than be
lined up on exhibition somewhere
to listen to long speeches and gaze
silently on assembled greatness.
And, again, those boys who do
not want to have a "time in Fris-
co" would probably rather see
their old fathers and mothers,
brothers and sisters and towns
folk than the governor and his
staff and all the Congressman and
miscellaneous dignitaries on earth.
We are inclined TO think that the
best way would be for each town
or locality to celebrate the home
coming of its particular volunteer
or volunteers in its own way. We
believe this would suit the volun-
teers better, and we know it
would please the fathers and
mothers, wives and sweethearts
of the volunteer better. We
therefore suggest to the people of
Caldwell that they prepare to re-
ceive the boys that belong here.
They could be greeted in such
way as TO make them realize that
they were appreciated by the
home folks. 1t would make them
proud and happy and it would fill
the hearts of relatives and friends
with rejoicings.

Cruelty to Patients.

A story comes from Moscow, through
the Mirror, that should call for imme-
diate and thorough investigation. One
F. ]. Brattan who recently returned
home with his wife who has been pa

she fully recovered, has mlde state

the treatment given patients is cruel

awaited transportation home: that he
found her manacled and tied in chair
so that she could not exercise, and that
she had been kept in that condition
until her BODY was covered with sores;
that she was even tied in bed at night.

WHERE. OH wHEREq

Ed Boyce, president of the
Western Federation of Miners,
has been to see President McKin-
ley in behalf of the Wardner min
ers, and has asked that the SOL
diers be withdrawn. Boyce ex-
presses himself as well satisfied
with the result of his interview
and says that matters were mis-
represented to the President. Evil
IDENTITY Boyce thinks he has &C
complished something towards
having the Federal troops with
drawn. We suspect, though, he
is mistaken. 1t is true, there
does not seem to be any pressing
demand for troops at Wardner,
but the mere fact that Boyce
wants them removed, awakens
a strong suspicion that they may
be needed. The President, how
ever DESTROYS he might be to do
so, cannot recall the soldiers un-
til Governor Steunenberg indi-
Gates that he no longer needs
them. This condition will not oc-
cur until organized labor has re-
ceived in Idaho its death blow.
The State administration is under
contract with the capitalistic mine
owners to destroy effective labor
association. The horny handed

Farmers Held A Meeting Last Saturday The

Last Saturday about 80 farmers from
the vicinity of Caldwell met at the
City, han for the purpose of dis
cussing and taking some action look
ing to a better system of irrigation
than at present exists in this section.
r. NJ. Gwinn was elected chairman of
tho meeting and H. A. Griffith, secre-
tary. The present situation was dis
eussed at length and finally pronounced
intOlerable. It was unanimously de
cided that steps must be taken to
change conditions. Money was raised
for the purpose of making preliminary
investigations, surveys, etc. and the
whole matter was turned over to a
committee consisting of II. A. Grit
filth, w. A. George, L. Fosnot, II. Cox
and r. II. Davis. This committee was
authorized to go right to work and
thoroughly investigate the whole situa
ton. The meeting then adjourned
subject to the call of the committee
Tuesday, 10 o'clock A. NJ, the Com,
ittee met in the office of II. A. Crit
tiths and formulated plans of proceed
ure, some of which cannot at this time
be made public. The first thing or.
dered done was the emploVment of
a competent surveyor to ascertain the
highest point South of Indian Creek
that could be reached from any point
on the Caldwell ditch. A sub-com-
mittee took the matter in hand and
the investigation was begun Wednes-
day. The committee will report next
Monday. The farmers are now in
dead earnest and are likely to do tile
things that shoald have been done
several years ago.

CALAMITY LICENSES.

This week what we took to be
a badly damaged member of the
human family called at this shop.
lie was using a crutch and a cane
to assist locomotion, and gave
every evidence of being a gen
uine physical calamity. He APP
pealed for aid, and with deep
heart throbs of sympathy we
whacked up with him, giving him
two large nickles out of possible
three. He grasped our hand and
fell upon our neck, and spilled
some grateful salt water down
our new suspenders. Then he
went away while we asked the
Lord to make a note of what our
left hand had been doing. We
believe, like all good Christians,
in doing charity in secret, and we
do not let our left hand know
what our right hand is doing, but
it does not seem that it would be
right TO keep the Lord in ignor-
ance or let him accidentally over
look any little items of credit.
We are liable to need them all
when it comes to balancing ac-
counts, We never suspected,
though, that our two-nickel gen.
crosby would work miracle; but
it did, In fifteen minutes after
our CONTINUATION was made, the
poor cripple threw down his
crutch and cane and walked off
singing right merrily. He en-
tered the Exchange" and took
schooner. The next physical cal
amity that strikes this shop with
a leg broke in seven places is not
going to have his business ruined
by our miraculous charity. We

There has been great deal offoJltsh
talk as to the necessity for a Protective
Tariff having passed, byclu3 in some
articles of Manufacture we are able to
undersell the orld, and hence our ex.
ports of these manufactured goods are
increasing at magnificent rate. This
is proof of the sounduess Of the Re
pablican doctrine that a Protective
Tariff does not interfere with the de-
velopment Of our export trade. The
FreeTraders have always declared that
a large volume of manufactured ex-
ports is impossible under Protection.

proved the utter falsity of This theory.
