VS.. E. H. Talbot. In case the
place is valued at over $4,000, part
of the property may be sold to satisfy
a Judgment of 5000, awarded by the
court. It is said by competent
persons that the place is one of the
best in Idaho. AS to this we are
unable to vouch. The gentlemen,
whom, Judge Church has appoint

place. They are entirely competent
and perfectly willing to do justice.

sortment will be carried. It is the
intention Of Nj. Hurr to carry as

wide acquaintanceship throughout
the State. He is an affable gentle

tends a hearty welcome to Mr..
Hurr and his estimable family. We

B. F. Hurr and son arrived in
Caldwell Monday morning, having
come. down from Nampa. Mrs.
Hurr and two children will come
here as soon as soon as the house
which they are to occupy is gotten
in readiness, They will occupy
the residence in which Mr.. and
Mrs. G. S. Doan formerly lived On
the corner of Second street north
and Kimball Avenue. Owing to
the lack of hotel facilities in Cald-i
we'll, Mrs. Hurr and children will
remain in Nampa for a few days.
Their household goods have arriv-
ed.
Mr.. Hurr has come to Caldwell
to stay. After thoroughly looking
over the State he concluded that
Caldwell presents a more inviting
field for business enterprise than
any other town. The substantial
growth, large business being done,
and the general enterprise and en-
ergy of the people are responsible
for this. He will open a clothing
and gentleman's furnishing house
in this city. His stock will be
here as soon as the new brick be-

Returns From Portland.

Wednesday night Mr.. and Mrs.
w. M. Cupp and Mr.. w. R. Cupp
returned from Portland. Messrs
Cupp were delegates to the National
Live Stock Convention recently
held in the Oregon metropolis.
They report an enjoyable time.
The people of Portland treated the
delegates royalty. The convention
was the largest live stock conven-
ton ever held. There were about
$50 delegates present. Idaho had
100 votes in the convention. Mr..
W. R. Cupp in speaking to re-
preventative of THE TRIBUNE said
that the president of the National
Live Stock Association pronounced
the Idaho Wool Growers Associa-
tiou the strongest sub-organization
Of the kind in the world. Among
the star attractions was Hon. Jerry
Simpson, formerly of Kansas. He
has quit the way of the unrighteous,
cut out, politics and wears socks.
We are pleased to chronicle Jerry's
reformation. Many interesting
subjects, among which were the
forest reserve, grazing lands, the
bilI labelling shoddy goods, were
discussed. The convention endors'
ed the action of the national ad'
ministration in its action in Pan
anna. Mr.. Cupp said that the men
ton Of President Rooseve1t's name
brought forth round after round O
applause. The meeting was
huge success and equally pleasan
and profitable to those in after
dance.

Mr.. G. W. Stealey, formerly in
the employ of the Pioneer Irrigation
District as an assistant engineer,
under Edward Hedden, alleges that
in an estimate of work done for
contractor w. P. Carter, by subcon-
tractor Carl Borup, he, Stealy, put
in about 1861 yards of fmaterial clas-
si6ed as hard pan or loose rock, to
which the contractor was not en-
titled under the terms OF the con-
tract. If this statement be true, the
estimate wrongs the District to the
amount of $500. This false esti-
mate, it is alleged by Mr.. Stealey,
was made on the Phyllis Canal at
section I, between station 24o and
station 2oo. The difference allow
ed the contractor between earth and
hard pan or loose rock is 2I cents
a yard, which on 1861 yards a.
mount to $39o.8I.
The statement made by Mr..
Stealy came to the knowledge of
Messrs Flora and Ball, members of
the Board of Directors a week or
ten days ago, and was made to
them personally by Mr.. Stealey. In
consequence of which they made
arrangements to go and examine
the point on the canal where Mr..
Stealey alleged that the fraud had
been perpetrated. Last Tuesday

tricr, also Contractor Carter and
Mr.. Rhodes, met at the point desig-
mated. After some examination,
both Mr.. Hedden and Mr.. Steeley

TRIBUNE IS RIGHT

Editor CALDWELL TRIBUNE.
l have been much interested in
articles in THE TRIBUNE in regard
to irrigation. l have to say that it
does make a good deal of "difer-
ence what THE TRIBUNE thinks"
about the merging of all the water
rights of the Boise and Payette
Valleys in a great Government
cooperation, or a greet private cor
poration. It makes a great diff
ference what everybody interested
thinks about it. .:-
Thinking is what every one
should do, who, is interested, and
very much thinking should be done
before they enter into such a COM
bination. The suggestions of The
TRIBUNE are. not only good but
they are very good. The law en-
acted at the last session OF the Leg
islature, should never have been
put upon the statute book. Any
law which practically forces every
man to go into court to have his
rights to land or water determined,
is vicious if not unconstitutional.
Such law may be good for the
lawyers but is not good for the peo-
pie. A similar act was persistently
pressed upon the members of tn e
sixth session and was only defeated
in the last days of the session by the
active work of three or four mem
bers, all of whom came from Can
yon County. The appointment oi
a lot of officers to be paid by the
people whose work is practically to
get the farmers into trouble, and
the organization of new courts tc
adjudicate rights of all water own
ers and users which does not seem
to be authorized by the constitution
is at least of doubtful utility.
The law is framed after a similar
law in Wyoming, but the constitu'
ton of Wyoming differs very mea
terially in this respect from thu
constitution of Idaho. This State
differs very materially from Wyom
ing Our agricultural and horticul
tural interests are of immense value
The people should make hast
slowly and think much, and Civ
expression to their thought
through the papers, and otherwise

phase of the whole business is that
Mr.. Stealey absolves the contractor,
Mr.. Carter. Of any part in the
transaction, and Mr. Carter was the
only person who could possibly
benefit by it.
" No doubt the Board of Directors
win sift the matter to the bottom as
rapidly as possible.
