course that is exactly what might have hap

has only certain capacity for romance, ad-
venture. and what not, though in different de-
grees; and PANS romance had been so crowded
into her early years that it was quite natural
she should have had respite from excitement
for long time. But It has SOLDERING effect
upon our imaginations, as, indeed. 1t appears to
have had on Pam. And so. when the story opens
again. IT is on quite different young woman

ventional in her actions. but far more conven-

writing cheap love stories for cheap story pa
pers would have a subduing effect upon even so
unexpected young person as Pam We like the
new Pam, and we are constantly recognizing in
her suggestions OF the old Pam, so that she
never seems a stranger 20 us, and we sympa-
thize with her in her joys and griefs over her
new love affair, and over the awakened memo

bring her once more in touch with the world in
which we first met her. No further suggestion

TO be obliged to dismiss her Simple Annals"

toned spontaneity seems 10 have deserted her.
She calls these stories studies Of the lives of
working women" but they show no signs of
real study OF human nature. The little plots
are conventional. when they not forced.
Things happen not In such a way as 70 make
us feel that they have anything to do with life,
but in a way to suggest that the author has
made up her mind to tell so many sentimental

life gives her the inspiration not. The pathos
is Of the maudlin sort, artificial and sickly. A
more specious unconvincing group of stories
than this we have not read in long time.

Congratulations.

In commenting on the Sternen-
berg case, the Owyhee Avalanche
says:
In this connection, it might not
be amiss to state that no fears need
be entertained by. the ultra-moral
county of Canyon as to the anar-
chistic tendencies of any citizens OF
Owyhee. 1t has been many years
since the authorities here have been
forced to put sixteen men in four
cells. and since October there has
been but one man in Jail in Silver,
and he was wanted in Nevada, and
was merely held for the authorities
of that state"
The immunity of Owyhee county
from sin is a source of gratifica-
ton to all. The relief of mind to
Canyon county is great. Being
such near neighbors, we we're
deadly afraid of infection, but the
Avalanche has set us at rest.

the best to be had. We would
like to give detailed description
of each part, but that is impracti-
cable. Messrs. Britt, Duncan &
Britt are pleasant, affable men.
They are always ready to show a
person about, and explain the
workings of each piece of machin-
cry. Mr.. Britt says that he had
5000 bushels Of wheat on hand at
the opening. That, with what
comes in from time to time, will
run the mill at full capacity until
the next harvest. A shortage OF
wheat has always been a serious
handicap to the Caldwell mill. 1t
is now thought that this OBSTACLE
has been done away with for all
time.

ANOTHER BANK
FOR CALDWELL
WILDE Ready and Doing Business
in Sixty Days With a Local
Man at the Head

Man at the Head
Preparations are being made for
the opening of new national bank
in Caldwell, with capital stock of
$50, 100000 fully paid up. The
Froman-Davis building on the cor
ner of Main and Kimball was pur-
chased last week. The furniture,
fixtures and safes will be ordered
at once. The organizers are
Ex-Governor John T. Morrison,
Messrs. w. H. Roadway of Caldwell,
J. G. Long of Albany, Kentucky,
and S. d. Simpson of Belle, Texas.
Mr.. Roadway will be president, Mr..
Long, vice president and Mr.. Simp-
son, cashier. The name of the new
bank has not been decided upon
yet. Only the latest improved
safes and vaults, and the best bank
ing fixtures and furniture will be
used. The building will be remod-
eled throughout, so as to make it
convenient for bank.
The organizers of the bank are
good substantial men. Mr.. Morri-
son lived in Caldwell great many
years. He was for long time our
leading lawyer, and foremost citi-
zen. He was Governor of Idaho
for two years. Mr.. Morrison needs
no introduction here. His name
alone would give the new institu-
ton standing in the community.
Mr.. Redway is now and has been
for number of years one of our
leading merchants. We might
truthfully say that he has grown
up with the town. In 1894 he pur-
chased from the M. B. Gwinn Com
mercial Co., the hardware and
grocery department of that institu-
ton. Since then the growth of the
business has been phenominal. He
has won his own way.
Messrs. Long and Simpson are
not personally known to us. Mr..
Long has been for a number of
years Cashier of the Bank of AL
|
bany, Albany Kentucky. He has
been prominently identified with
the coal mining and oil industries
of Tennessee and Kentucky for a
great many years. For long time
he was associated in business with
members of the Standard Oil Co.,
the greatest business institution in
the world.
Mr.. Simpson has had 10 years
experience in banking, S years in
Kentucky and S years in Texas.
He organized q different banks in
the latter state. All of them are
doing business and prospecting TO
this day. At present Mr.. Simpson
is vice-president of the First Nation
al Bank of Savoy and vice-president
of the First National Bank of Bells,
Texas.
With men of such enterprise, a.
bilitv and experience at its head,
and in growing and thrifty town,
the new bank will certainly prove a
success.
