catello, relative to establishing a
newspaper which should be a reli-
aole advocate, at all times, of Re-
publican principles, and in harmony
with the party organization in this
state, leaves it to be inferred, if it
old not expressly state, that an "or-
gan" OF the party is proposed to be
established, which shall be run uu-
der the direction of the State Com
mite, and receive the state patron
age.
deem it my duty, as chairman
OF the State Central Committee, and
speaking for the committee, to saw
that no such proposition as the one
suggested in the Statesman's editor
lal was entertained by the committee
at said meeting, nor is such a plan
in contemplation. The facts are
that as a result of a discussion at
said meeting, a special committee
was appointed for the purpose of
having under consideration a pro-
position to start Republican news
paper, to be established and main
tained purely as a private business
enterprise, and not under the pat.
ronage or control, to any extent, of
the State Central Committee. At
the morning session of the Commit.
tee, it was agreed that the commit"
teeman from each county should,
before the meeting in the afternoon,
advise with the delegates from his
county then in attendance on the
state convention, as to the expedi-
ency of establishing such newspaper;
and each member of the committee
present at the afternoon session there
of reported that the sentiment, as he
found it, was in favor of encourag-
ing the establishment of newspap-
er as proposed; and this sentiment,
expressed in the committee, met with
the unanimous approval of the mem
bers present.
I deem this explanation to be due
to the Republican papers in the state
which contributed so largely to the
splendid results of the last election,
for which service the party is still
debtor to them.
The special committee referred to
consists of Hon. R. H. Davis of the
CALDWELL TRIBUnE, chairman;
Hon. w. E. Borah; G. W. Thomp-
son, Esq, of Lewiston; and, exofi-
clio, the undersigned, Chairman of
the State Central Committee.

THE MILKMAlDS
Are Coming to Caldwell June Tenth
In Fall Force
THE EVENINGS PROGRAMME
synopsis of the Play and the Caste
OF Characteristic Home People
Engaged. It Will be Good.

Synopsis of the Merry Milkmaids
entertainment to be given at the
opera house, June 10th, under, the
auspices of the Ladies Aid of the
Christian Church by home talent.
Part First. The milkma ids
greeting to the early morning by
the farmer boys on their way to the
field, and the tinkling bells from
the pasture-lands join in the merry
refrain.
The Farmers Brigade are out in
early training, the Village Judge
passes that way, adjusts matters
and departs with best wishes to all
as the two Jolly Farmers appear,
and the maids are off to the milking.
The Commodore takes advantage
of circumstances, is surprised by
the Doctor, but being "a man of
wonderful brain ann nerve power"
he eludes his prosecutor. The
Dairy Queen comes in from her
morning walk in time to welcome
the maids who return with flowing
pals.
Dorothy relates her morning ad-
venture, receives kindly advice,
when footsteps are heard and the
beggar, (the Commodore in real
llfe) appears, tells his tragical tale
of misfortune, and departs in dis
gust as Farmer Jim enters with
confessions, to learn that his declar-
ations has been SO long deferred,
that he is, alas! too late.
The milking is done, but the
buckets and pans must be polished:
the Peddler (the Doctor in disguise)
enters with his wares; Ruth has
bit of romance to relate, and Mother
Monica, the Indian fortune-teller
appears with startling revelations,
as the farmer boys return from the
fields amid hearty demonstrations
of welcome.
Part Second. Happy maids churn
the golden butter; they catch a
glimpse out of the past and off to
the evening milking. Farmer Jim,
driven to the depths of dependency,
is in need of encouragement, which
he receives from neighbor Joe and
the Village Judge, but Monica
proves to be the Queen of Samari-
tans.
The jolly Gentlemen (Farmer's S
Brigade) returning home engage in
their favorite pastime, and receive
a surprise from the Commodore,
whose reputation is seriously af-
fected by the arrival of the Doctor,
who rings the death-knell to all
royal afectations in the heart of
the "man of war;"
Margery INDUCES in RETROSPECT
ton, and the busy judge pauses a
moment to paint picture of life,
when the evening bells announce
the close of day: the Queen echoes
the strain which is taken up by and
bourne out over the hills to the
maids and farmer boys, who return
from labor; Ruth makes startling
announcement as the Vesper song

SUGAR FACTORY
# is Hopec Tnat it may be Built in
The Town of Caldwell
nRFAMS NEVER REALIZED YET
Although we Have Been Building ST.
nsr Factories and Railroad For the
Past Twenty Years.

It is of current report that a SUI
oar factory is to be established near
caldwell-within a mile and a
ouartes to the southeast of the town.
THE TRIBUNE has been aware for
sometime that movement of this
kind was on foot, but we have not
felt that it was judicious to indulge
IN boom articles. We have in the
past built columns of railroads,
pages of woolen factories, thous-
ands of ems of broom factories and
steam laund1ies which have never
progressed beyond the newspaper
stage, and, with similar results, we
have in the same way built dozen
or more sugar factories. This bus
mess of enthusiastically projecting
great enterprises on paper and then
watching them Systematically peter
out, pals on the appetite after a
while, and one comes to feel like
adopting the philosophy of the hen
who refrains from celebrating until
after the egg has happened.
In respect of this prospective su-
gar factory, we know nothing ex-
cept that Mr.. c. S. Faurot of Col
orado has been in the neighborhood
for sometime ostensibly investigat-
ing the situation. He is reported
as saying that ideal conditions ex-
ist at Caldwell for the profita bic
conversion of beets into sugar. He
is also reported as promising to
build a factory within the year if
he can make contracts for the culti-
vation of 5000 acres of beets. AS
to Mr.. Faurot's ability to fulfil his
promise we have no knowledge
whatever and it is not necessary
that we should have any. He pro-
poses to build the factory on the
promise of farmers to raise the beets.
All that farmers need to concern
themselves about is to make sure
that the terms of the contract are
falr to themselves.
There ought not to be much diff.
Guilty about securing the acreage.
Thinking men among farmers must
realize that at the present rate Of
increase, alfalfa raising will soon be
oVerdone, and prices will fall below
the possibility of profitable culture.
ougar beet culture is profitable in
every locality favorable to the
growth and development of the
root. The indications are that the
Boise valley is favorable, therefore,
nom every view point, the interests
VI farmers will be served by devot-
ing some portion of their lands to
sugar beets. We think that Mr..
Faurot should be given every en-
e0uragement due to Legitimate busi-
HeSs enterprise. His is not a phil
anthroplc undertaking, but at the
same time, it is in line of promot.
ing the general good and for that
reason deserves cordial support.
Aue people can we'll afford to take
chance with him; that is to say
'uey can afford to undertake tc

INDIANA IS STILL
4 CLOSE STATE
It Is "Anybody's Fight in Hoo
acknowledged Seems to
Have the Longer Purse.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Oct. 19.-The president
doesn't feel sanguine about Indiana.
Of the close states, it is the only one
which he is unwilling to say will al
most certainly, go repub lican. This
isn't tantamount to a declaration that
but it does mean that it really seems
to be very close. There is no good
ground for saying that the republican
outlook in Indiana isn't as good as
the democratic; it is. But so far as
can now be seen, it isn't any better,
and there's the rub. It's anybody's
fight, and neither republican nor demo-
come will be: Many Republican poiiti-
clans and some Of the newspaper cor
respondents are saying that Indiana
will be for Roosevelt by from $4,000 to
10000 plurality, but these estimates are
pure guesswork. The guess may in the
end prove to be a good one, and all re.
publicans will hope that it may; but
it is guess just the same, and there
ism It one scintilla Of tangible evidence
on which to base it.
Reports from Indiana to republican
national headquarters are to the effect
that the situation is hopeful. Roose
welt is holding his own, the campaign
interest is increasing, and there are nc
breaks anywhere in the line. This is
all we'll enough. put reports OF precisely
the same character come to democratic
national headquarters claiming this tt
be the democratic outlook. Both re
ports represent the testimony of par
titan experts, and since they are a.
alike as two peas, it is not strange thai
the president should look upon tn,
state as being doubtful.
It was believed on both sides thai
the tour Of Bryan would clear up thu
atmosphere to some extent, and so i
has; but the clearing has been rattle
to the advantage Of the democrats
Bryan has come out fat-footedly ant
earnestly for Parker, and has trie,
| with all the force and fervor Of hi
| wonderful oratory to bring his free
silver friends into line. It is hardl,
necessary to say that this trip has re
| vived democratic hopes in hoosierdom
