THE REPUBLICAN TICKET
NOMINATED TUESDAY
CANDIDATES ARE COMING IN so SLOWLY THAT ANYONE
CAN ALMOST NAME THE TICKET

At present it looks as though the
Republican county ticket will be
headed by A. A. Richards for State
Senator, and l.. V. Patch, Geo. NJ
Snow and Sam Ballantyne for the
lower house. ]. F. Nesbit is also con-
sidered probable candidate. o. NJ.
Van Duyn, Judge Hagelin, Miss Bean
and John Tucker will be re-nominat-
ed without opposition for the posi-
tions to which they aspire. For as
SCISSOR j. F. Nesbit, G. A. Cakes and
l. R. Beal are mentioned. For
treasurer Mrs. Zilpha Miller, F. M.
Satoris and ]. G. Nichols are prom
inently mentioned. The sheriff will
be either j. w. Watkins or F. l..
Payne. For commissioners it is con-
coded that d. P. Dodd and F. Il.
Fiske will be re-nominated. w. H.
Plat and J. F. Bayse are each men
toned, but Mr.. Bayse, we are told, is
not at al anxious to get the nomina-
tion--and consequently Mr.. Plat will
probably be re-nominated. H. M.
Hedges is mentioned for surveyor.
The coroner will be either DR.. Kel-
log of Nampa or DIR. Cue of Caldwell.
Republican primaries were held in
every Canyon county precinct Satur-
day. The Republican county nomi-
mating convention will be held in
Caldwell, Tuesday. The delegates
elected were:
East Caldwell-R. B. Scatterday,
]. M. Thompson, Frank Breshears,
]. III. Lowell.

in disrepute, and every person who
has an honest opinion of the princip-
les and policies of government, and
has the courage to express that opin-
ion and align himself with the politi-
cal party which advocates them, is a
politician. 1t would be vastly better
for America were there hundred
politicians where there is one today
The Tribune is not afraid of the stig-
ma of the word politician" and we
believe in the stand pat" principle.
We know that, as every American cit
iZen has an opportunity to express
himself at the primaries of his politi-
cal party, he should, II out-number-
ed, accept the defeat gracefully. No
right principle will long remain I'M
tried, II the people believe in it, and
man has a much better chance of
persuading his political friends to
accept principle than he has among
his political enemies. The idea that
bosses manipulate and rings control
is all bosh. When the people are
interested enough to participate in
the affairs of their party. the boss
and ring disappear, like the mist
before the morning sun. The indif-
ference of the people has caused the
more corruption than all the Tweed 8
this country has ever produced. 1t
Is nobody's fault except the peoples.
II designing men gain control of the
government, as sometimes they do.
We do not defend corruption or graft,
but We have little respect for the
man who participates in a primary
or convention and when defeated
uses his influence to defeat his po-
litical principles. He is the sore
head. and nine times out of ten the
sore head is the independent voter.

Steve Adams, one of the chief wit
nesses in the Steunenberg case. was
given his liberty by Judge Stewart
Saturday afternoon. Adams has
been in the State penitentiary at
Boise for several months. The order
of the court that the prisoner be
given his liberty had scarcely been
made when Deputy Sheriff Siggins
stepped up to the prisoner and ar
rested him on a fugitive warrant
The authority came from Denver in a
dispatch to County Attorney c. f.
koelsch.
The dispatch was dated Denver
Colo, September s, and said:
stephen w. Adams. a fugitive
from justice, has been charged, upon
a complaint filed here before Grant

the killing of Lyle Gregory In Denver

hands. Swear out fugitive warrant
and hold Adams. Requisition papers
are being prepared and an agent will

said to be a millionaire many times
over.
The new men are thorough, COM
petent and successful business men.
They are pleasant men to meet and
have reputation for enterprise, Ell
ergy and public spirit.
History of Bank
The First National Bank, former
ly the Stock Growers and Traders
Bank, was organized by Messrs
Howard Sebree, B. F. White, w. R.
Sebree and other prominent business
men of Caldwell Mr.. Sebree was
president of the bank and remained
so until the present time. In 1892
the Stock Growers and Traders
Bank was succeeded by the First Ma
tional Bank. The directors were
Howard Sebree, b. F. White, Con
Shea, Robert Noble, S. M. Coffin,
Chas. H. Sebree, c. S. Doan, M. B.
Gwinn, and w. R. Sebree. Howard
Sebree was president, B. F. White
vice president, and w. r. Sebree,
cashier The bank remained under
practically the same management
until Mr.. r. A. Cowden purchased
the interests of Mr.. White. a couple
of years ago. Since that time Mr.
Cowden has been cashier, and Mr.
w. r. Sebree, vice-president. The
presidency of the bank has never
been changed. The bank grew from
the first and has continued to grow
ever since. Today 1t is acknowledge
ed to be the strongest bank in Ida
no, with deposits of over a million
dollars. The men in charge have al
ways been able and conservative
business men. The First National
has done much for Caldwell's bust
ness interests. Mr.. Cowden, who is
the only retiring officer, will devote
his time to his large implement and
lumber interests. He Is president
of the Idaho Implement Co., the
largest institution of list kind in the
state. He will continue to make his
home in Caldwell.

STEVE ADAMS SPIRITED AWAY.
Was Driven From the Penitentiary
Last Night to Meridian or Nam
pa, Bound for Wallace.

Another chapter was marked in
the Steve Adams case according to
discoveries made this morning. Sher-
If Sutherland is still registered at
the Idanha, but no one has seen him
about town since last night. AL
though guards were watching the
penitentiary for the attorneys of Ad-
ans, 1t appears the latter was taken
out and in company with Sheriff
Sutherland of Wallace was driven
either to Meridian or Caldwell where
the midnight train was boarded for
the west.
Definite proof of the above was not
obtainable up to noon today, but At
torneys Darrow and Nugent made
no sercet OF their starting for Wal
lace at 1:45 this afternoon. AS soon
as they reach Wallace and locate
Adams they viii institute habeas cor
pus proceedings for his release.
The Denver officers may have und-
erstood what was going on or they
may have not. 1t is understood
they will leave for home today.
Habeas corpus proceedings were
instituted In Judge Stewards court
this morning.
The writ was directed to the war
den. The answer Is made by the
deputy warden who says that the
warden Is absent. The answer furth-
err states that the prisoner, Steve
Adams. is not in the custody OF the
warden, that he was taken from the
penitentiary yesterday by Sheriff
Sutherland. The deputy does not
say at what hour. neither does he
say where the warden is located. II
is very evident that the warden went
north with Sheriff Sutherland.
The report that the Denver officers
had left for home Is found to be
wrong. They are indignant at being
tricked and both left this afternoon
at 1:45 for Wallace to see the game
played out. Fridays Capital News

A deal of great magnitude was
undertaken Saturday and successful
lN consumated Monday when Messrs.
]. f. Cosgriff and G. d. Smell, Jr., of
Salt Lake City, purchased control
of the First National Bank of Cald-
well. The consideration must have
been large as the First National has
always been the strongest bank in
Idaho. Little change will be made
in the Board of Directors. Mr.. How
ard Sebree retains an interest in the
bank and will remain at the head of
the institution. Mr.. w. r. Sebree
will continue as vice-president, and
will devote his time to the bank. Mr..
R. A. Cowden resigned as cashier,
but is still a member of the Board
of Directors. Mr.. G. d. Smell, Jr.,
succeeds Mr.. Cowden as cashier. Mr.
Smell comes from Salt Lake. His
family will move here Immediately,
and will make their future home
in Caldwell. He has ten years ex-
perlenCo as banker ana Is now
heavily interested in two Utah banks
Mr.. Smell says that he is greatly
pleased with Caldwell and surround
ing country. The opportunities, re-
sources, climate and everything else
strongly appeal to him.
Mr.. Cosgriff, one of the purchas-
ers. is president of the Commercial
National Bank of Salt Lake. The
Commercial National is one of the
largest banks in the Utah metropo-
lis. In addition to this he Is heav-
lily interested in S other banks in
Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming. Among
them is the First National of Pay
cite, First National of Cheyenne
First National, Rawlings, Rock
Springs National, Sheridan National,
and Commercial National of St. An
thony. Mr.. Cosgriff Is interested
with his three brothers in the sheep
