Will PrSEe q Great BsaeRt-Nampa
and Payette are Already Organized
Should Embrace the ERtire
County In It's Work.
A movement has been started to or
organize Canyon County Business
League, which, il completed, ought to
be the means OF doing much good for
the county. There are numerous uues-
lions OF vital importance that could be
handled by such AZ organization to the
up0uildlng OF the county. The county
Is old enough and the citizens are
broad enough TO organize for the gen.
eral good. Petty and sectional differ
ences should be lost in the broader and
deeper interests Of a common welfare.
The questions OF Immigration, irriga-
ton, fruit, farming interests and re-
sources Of the county, taxation, roads,
county fair, etc, are all questions which
couldsbe handled and discussed to adj
vantage by such an organization as
that proposed. We trust the Caldwell
