DEMOCRATIC SPECIAL
PAYETTE CONVENTION
Resolutions Endorsing Bryan but Not Debois
LOCAL OPTION WAS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS SELECTED
caldwell FURNISHES EIGHT...MARK BATES
BOSSES The CONVENTION

The Democrats of Caldwell and
Nampa always were great on grand
stand plays, when it comes to making
an impression on the public, and they
did not overlook the opportunity
Wednesday, when they held county
convention at Payette. The regular
train was not sufficient for them so
special was chartered for the oc-
casion. About twenty-five of the
leading strikers and delegates board
ed the train at Caldwell, for the city
on the Payette. The slogan was
Down with Dubois and the Mormon
ISSUE" and they did. But as the Ex-
senator has punctured the democratic
tire in Kootenia, Bonner, Shoshone,
and Latah counties, with Washington,
Lemhi, and Custer to hear from, it Is
not presumed that he is losing much
sleep over what Canyon County does.
The democrats of Canyon County are
now on record as being antiDubois
and are pledged to Rice and Seawell
for governor and congress. There is
nothing small about the Canyon
County brand when it comes to ask
ing for favors. The Caldwell dele
cation were evidently on to their
job for out of twenty-eight delegates
to the state convention, eight are
from Caldwell. The resolutions as
adopted settled the much vexed Nor
mon question and thus put the cibosh
on Dubois and his vagaries. The res
olution endorsed ]. T. Rice for gov

Catholic Altar.

Rev. J. c. Dreyer was in the city
Thursday to superintend the erec-
ton of the new altar for the Cath
Ollie church at this place. The alar
is a beautiful creation in sacred ar
chitecture, stands about 1S feet high
and is surmounted by the crucifix. 1t
is hand carved, white, finished in
gold, and of Cathedral style of ar
chitecture. This altar is the best
appearing in the State of Idaho, and
all donated by single person whose
modesty will not permit the mention
ing of his name. In addition to this
altar, there was also received an al
tar for the Blessed Virgin, and a
new confessional booth, both splen-
did pieces of work. The new affairs

be held to select delegates to attend
the state nominating convention to
be held in Boise in September. The
Democrats are evidently going to
dodge this most important issue, as
the Payette convention selected del
egates for the two state conventions
and they failed to mention the tenn
perance question. 1t appears that
about all they could think of was to
down Dubois.
The following are the delegates
selected:

Loyalty by me In the past:
During the past week there has
been published in the Boise States
man and the Capital News of this
city, articles regarding my official
conduct fthe office of State Treasur-
err and innuendos regarding myself
outside my official position.
The first part of this controversy
has two columns published In the
Capital News, a Democratic paper
which article, 1 firmly believe was
written by Robert S. Bragaw, State
Auditor, whose sole aim and object
seems to be to do everything within
his power to disrupt the Republican
party and especially to vent his
spleen on me. OF course we cannot
expect from the Capital News, matter
that will promote the interests of the
Republican party.
A few days after the publication OF
this article the Statesman, a paper
published in this city, claiming to be
a Republican paper, awoke to the fac
that the Capital News was ahead
of 1t, which, by the way, is quite
frequent occurrence. Then the

Chicago Letter.

Chicago, H., April "a, 1908.
The supply of sheep and lambs this
week shows an increase of about 49,
900 head compared to one week ago;
however, with the increased supply
conditions are such that we have
been able to hold prices on lambs up
to last weeks quotations. Sheep
show a decline of Is to 25c, on &C
count of a good many Texas sheep
being marketed at all the River Mar
kets, with one train on sale here.
Another good feature of the lamb
market is that the nearby feed barn
that have been filled up to the brim,
have loosened up and there is a good
many less at the feeding stations
than at any time during the past six
weeks.
If our advices from Colorado are
correct, supplies will commence to
fall off after another week, and If
next month don't show some high
prices we will quit guessing.
This Texas scare is all bosh. Every
buyer will boiler Texas, but after a
few trains have been marketed,
watch them switch off for the fed
sheep, so don't get cold feet; stay
by what you have on feed, and when
you get ready to market them, let
us know. We will do the rest. We
