IL horses, Is cows, 22 hogs, 81 chick
ems, 9 wagons and buggies, nipple
| ments, 6 sets of harness, besides a
| lot of household furniture and many
met with by the sales committee is
| that so many people insist on listing
much of their stock for more than it
is worth, for be it remembered that
the committee will not deliver an ar
ticle if sold for less price than the
owner listed it. One man listed a
team and harness for $40, the high
est bid was sos. After they were
knocked down for that amount he
waited patiently for the bidder to
come and get the property, until he
was told that they were bid in, as
he had listed them for s45 more than
they brought. The outfit would have
sold at private sale for perhaps $50,
it brought $40 more than it was
really with, had the team been put
up without reservation it would have
brought all it was worth and both
parties would have been satisfied.
One man brought in a number of
cows he would have taken 800 for
four of them, yet when put up at
auction he received 1892 for them.
1t is not good policy, because it is
an auction sale for the owners of
stock to expect to get fancy prices.
Mondays sale was one of the best
when the time of the year is cnsid-
cred, for be it remembered that June.
July and August are usually dull
months for public sales, but the rep
utation of the Caldwell Sales DAYS
is such that both buyer and seller
are coming for 80 and 40 miles. con-
sequently the sales will be good even
during the summer months. as the
people are getting the habit and it
is growing on them.

Another Traders Day has come
and gone, and another success is
p .aced to Caldwell's credit. The
Tribune is free to admit that Ira
DER s Day Monday was a surprise, it
was not thought possible that there
would be much of a crowd present
at the June salesday, and it was not
until near noon that the fact was
realized that there was going to be
crowd There had been but a
small amount of stock listed for sale
out when the books were closed II
was found that the sales amounted
to $1s12. The following is the LIST
OF leading articles sold and listed.

work.
The expense of getting out the
booklet has been borne entirely by
the Golden Gate Route, not dollar
has been received from outside par
ties nor was any requested. On the
other hand Col. Place arranged with
the firm who got out the work that
they would furnish 10000 copies for
the Commercial Club at less than
one-third of the price of the present
edition. No better investment could
be made than to invest $3.50 for
few thousand for distribution by the
Caldwell Commercial Club.

taken in our public school. While
perhaps 1t is true that the public
schools Of Caldwell have not been as
harmonious for a few years as they
should, but for the past year there
has been a decided change for the
better, and under the present efficient
superintendent and corps of teach
ers, the Caldwell schools VIII resume
their former position al the head OF
the schools of the State. But it
must not be expected this can be &C
complished without the support of
the patrons. Every citizen is inter-
ested or should be in the growth of
the schools and should use his or her
influence for their increased useful
ness. Our public schools should not
be neglected because there is an in
stitution for higher education in the
city, for the success of the latter de-
ponds largely in the thoroness of the
former.

Caldwell and vicinity have decided
that the city can afford and support
another bank. Consequently Messrs.

American State Bank. This bank
will be opened and ready for business
on or before July LIST. 1t will be 10
Gated in the Saratoga building at the
corner of Main and Seventh SITS.

invested in buildings or real estate
a larger capitalization is unnecessary
at the present time. The capital
stock is $25,OOO.0O, fully paid ND in
cash, which has been subscribed
three times over. This shows the
confidence of the people of Caldwell

Mr.. Simpson and his associates. They
believe the country can and will SUD-
port another bank. The officers of
the new bank are: President, s. D.
Simpson; vice president, ]. G. Mich

 shortly after the vicious outbreak of anarchists in the United States saort time ago the president issued an order u the department to secure statistics in regard to all foreigners who are charges on the county in all states and territories with a view of taking action to deport those who came under the ban of the immigration laws.

Yuma, Maricopa and Pima counties; Inspector Nelson, Yavapai, Mohave, Coconino, Apache and Navajo; Inspector Connell, Gila, Graham and Cochise; Inspector Cook, Santa Cruz; Inspector Murphy, Pinal

A great many people imagine they have heart trouble when the fact is that the whole trouble lies in the stom- sch. The pains in tho side around the region of the heart are not necessarily heart trouble. We suggest that you start with the stomach and whenever YOU feel depression after eating or wherever your food seems to nauseate take Kcdol. It will not he very long until all these "heart pains" will dis appear. Take Kodol now and until you know you are right again. There ism any doubt about what it will do and you will find the truth of this statement verified after you have used Kodol for a few weeks. It is sold by Hanna's drug store. 22s Broad street.

 He claims the entire find and says that the rush will be record breaker soon. The new find, whatever its value, is about l7O miles north of Yuma, at inc west end of the famous Harqua Hsla range, the range that has produced ores oi fabulous richness in days agone.
