er a deceiver is a safe guide. No
honest man will follow. a liar, even
if he should lie in good cause?
The foregoing is taken from the
Deseret News of Salt Lake. 1t is
wonderful what little rumor will
do. For years the Salt Lake Tribune
has made many charges against the
Mormons and the Deseret News.
Many times The Caldwell Tribune
has taken issue with the Salt Lake
Tribune on the charges made against
the Mormons. We have never before
seen such a tempest over such a
small thing. The Tribune is free to
confess that at the time we thought
little of the rumor. Now we are
convinced that there is something in
it. Why kilograms between the Cap
ital News If nothing has been done?
Why such fierce denials by the
Deseret News? Why such elaborate
explanations have the Capital News?
Why! Oh, Why!

local option, without consulting his
colleagues in the city council.
When w. W. Cupp was asked the
fateful question he answered prompt
ly and to the point-he was opposed
to the liquor traffic in any form,
was in favor of prohibition, local OPP
ton, or, if he could get neither of the
former he would like to see the sa-
looms under police regulation. BY
police regulation he meant that they
should be unscreened and be obliged
to close early. He deplored the
treating" habit and desired legis-
lation against it, if such were posi-
BILE.
When Councilman Simpson was
seen he stated that he had not known
that the city could refuse licenses
without cause when all the legal re-
quirements had been fulfilled by the
petitioner AS to his position on the
subject he was reticent, stating that
he would like to give the matter
more thought before he took his
stand.
T. K. Little Is out of town and N.
J S. Miller could not be located in time
for this edition.
From the whole it would seem evil
dent that the city fathers as body
will be in favor of absolute prohibit
ton and against local option, un-
less the adjoining precincts adopt
it also. But whatever stand they
take, The Tribune is certain it will
be the one they think is the best for
Caldwell.

and endeavoring to influence public
opinion for political purposes. That
this is the object the Tribune is aim
ing at is evident from it's misleading
headlines.
We are authorized to state en-
phatically that the story represent
ing the Church as having secured
control of the paper in question, or
any other paper, in Idaho, is false.
The Church has not furnished one
cent, either by loan or otherwise, for
any such purpose The malicious in
situation of the use of tithing money
for political purposes is, therefore,
worthy of the wretch in whose be-
sotted brain it originated. But it is
without any foundation in fact. The
Church has no interest whatever in
the matter. 1t is up to the Tribune
to prove it's headline assertions, or
stand branded again as the most con-
spicuous member of the club of
which poor Ananias, we fancy, would
have been heartily ashamed, tho his
name has been affixed to it.
We call attention again to the pc
culiar fact that the Tribune is lead
ing its anti" Mormon" crusade with
all manner of falsehoods and mis-
representations, exaggeration of
faults it may find, and pure inven-
lions when facts are lacking. Can

| ford such a lead? Those to whom
moral assets are worth anything

CRAZY MAN sent
TO The ASYLUM

Warren R. Wheaton of Nampa was
committed by Judge Hagelin to the
State insane asylum at Blackfoot,
last Monday.
Wheaton was examined on a COM
plant filed by his father-in-law, Fred
Keeper, who stated that the patient
had an uncle that was insane, and
that he himself had suffered from a
sunstroke while serving with the U.
S. Troops in the Philippines, also he
had had slight attack of insanity
at the age of thirty-five. A few
weeks ago he went to Portland and
opened a small restaurant and while
there shot himself in the body four
times.
After the judge had signed the
necessary papers, Wheaton was taken
to the Office of Dr. Cue to have his
wounds dressed, while there the doc
tor removed three of the balls from
where they had lodged in his back.
Tuesday afternoon he was taken
to the asylum.

Dutch WEDDING
PULLED OFF

Tuesday night large number of
the friends and neighbors of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Bischoff gthered at their
home near Notus for the purpose of
celebrating the announcement of the
marriage of their daughter Marie to
Mr.. Elliott Tennyson. Guests
were present from Caldwell, Emmett
and Notus to celebrate the event
which was to be conducted in Ger
man style; those who have ever
attended an occasion of this kind
know full we'll that the true meaning
is hospitality. After the company
had assembled, H. j. Mclaughlin, as
master of ceremonies, read the an
nouncement of the wedding that
would take place the following day,
after which the festivities of the oc-
casion were opened and mirth and
pleasure held full sway for the en-
tire night. The supper was one of
the features of the occasion, the ia
of good things, prepared as only a
German housewife knows SO we'll
how to prepare. The roast turkey
was done to turn, the pies and
cakes could not be excelled, in fact,
everything was the best ever and
was fully enjoyed by all present.
The happy couple came to Caldwell
Wednesday, where a marriage Ii
cense was obtained after which Judge
Hagelin said the words that made
Elliott Tennyson and Marie Bishoff
man and wife.
Mr.. Tennyson is one of the promi-
| nent ranchers and stockmen of the
Emmett country, being one of the
big sheep owners of our County. The
Tribune extends congratulations.

INSPECTION ORDINANCE
PASSED BY THE COUNCIL
All the Public Buildings Will be Inspected
DANGEROUS STRUCTURES WILL BE CONDEMNED FIRE ESCAPES
FOR ALL PUBLIC BUILDINGS over One STORY HIGH
...WIDE EXITS and STAIRWAYS DEMANDED

Called by the mayor, the city coun-
Gil met in special session Tuesday
night.
The first thing that came up was
the subject of the sidewalks that had
not been built, as ordered by the
council, and the city clerk was or
dered to advertise for bids for the
construction of about three quarters
of a mile of such wooden sidewalks.
Most of this walk will be laid on
Washington Heights and the expense
charged against the delinquent prop
erty.
Following this an order was is
sued that the Warrant Redemption
Fund should be used, in redeeming
warrants issued for water-work ex-
tension, road warrants and general
warrants. These three classes of
warrants will be redeemd as far as
the fund will allow, an equal amount
of each variety being taken up.
Council then passed the building
inspection ordinance. The full title of
the ordinance reads as follows:

Will OBSERVE
LINCOLN DAY

Sunday night at the Methodist
church a special service in commem-
Grafton of the birth of Abraham Lin
coin was held. Attorney Walters ad-
dressed the meeting on Lincoln, the
Statesman" Attorney Wallace, on
Lincoln, the Man." and Rev. Prin-
gle, on Ellis Unfinished Work"
The addresses were we'll received
and the pre-eminent qualities of our
national idol were most fittingly por-
trayed by the speakers. Mr.. Walters
read his reply to "The Suggestions
to the President by Mr.. Seward, his
secretary of state, and emphasized
the ability of Mr.. Lincoln as leader
of men. He spoke of his firmness
and his ability to differ with men and
out arousing their animosity. His
closing remarks were upon the nat
ural love for Lincoln in the north and
south alike and his death as being
the binding tie of the nation.
Mr.. Wallace pictured his large,
warm heart and sympathetic nature.
He spoke of him as being raised by
God for the purpose of which he gave
his life, and likened him to Moses in
this particular.
Rev. Pringle spoke of the present
condition and future prospects of the
colored race in the south, and the
work of the church in educating and
training of the negro of our land, He
spoke hopefully of the future of the
negro race and said that education
and conversion to religion are the
basis Of his hope. He had prepared
chart with appropriate statistics
which he referred to during his ad.
dress.
The music of the male choir and
the duet by Messrs, Turner and Bin
ford were greatly enjoyed. The house
was we'll filled.

SPECIAL LEGISLATIVE
SESSION MAY Be CALLED

CIAL SESSION called by the gov

1t is persistently reported that
such special session will be called
by the governor. We understand
that the State Bankers Association
are urging that the State pass a
depositors insurance law similar to
that of the new State of Oklahoma,
These two matters are of great i'm
portance and it is not impossible that
a special session will be called. More
definite information and discuss on
will appear in the next issue of The

The temperance agitation came to
a focus at a meeting held a few
days ago, when a committee was APP
pointed to wait on the mayor and
members of the city council to in
quire their views on the subject of
refusing to renew the license of the
local saloons. According to the Ida
no law, any town can go "dry" at
will, by the refusal of the governing
body to issue saloon licenses.
The Tribune sent reporter to in
terview the mayor and councilmen on
this subject, with the following re-
suit: Mayor Smith stated that he
had not discussed the subject with
any member of the city council and
was hardly in position to give an off
hand answer. He said that he was
unqualfiedly in favor of prohibition
and expected the state to go dry
at the next session of the legislature,
but he thought that local option
would be a hardship on the mer-
chants of a dry precinct if the ad-
joining precincts were wet"
Councilman Boyes refused to talk
for publication but the reporter
gathered that his opinion was about
the same as the mayors.
Councilman Jones said that he had
given the matter considerable thought
that he had much experience will
the practical workings of prohibition
while express agent in Kansas town
but would not care to give an off
hand answer as to how he stood OF

pie, for the purpose of determining
the safety of such buildings and for
the condemning of same and provid-
ing other penalty for the violation
thereof"
Among the provisions of the ordi-
nance it requires the doors of all
public buildings to open outward,
the stairways, passages, etc., to have
width of eighteen inches for each
hundred people of the capacity of the
building, and that metal fire-escapes
must be placed on all public build
ings more than one story high.
The ordinance provides a penalty
of a fine of one hundred dollars for
each offense, or, if you don't care to
pay the money, you can serve it out
at the rate Of $3.50 per day.
This ordinance has been rendered
necessary by the condition of several
buildings in the city, one of which
is regularly frequented by young
people and is believed to be in a
very unsafe condition. The city
fathers felt the Importance of i'm
mediate and effective action and at
a previous meeting ordered the city
attorney to draw up this ordinance.
To show how deeply they felt the
need of such a law we need only add
that the bill was passed unanimous
ly.

Another Tribune Falsehood.

The Tribune prints story credited
to the Caldwell Tribune to the effect
that, according to rumor, the Des-
eret News has secured the controlling
interest in the Capital News of Boise
Idaho. The Caldwell paper adds that
it has been unable to verify the ru-
NOR tho 1t comes from persons who
ought to know"
A representative of the Salt Lake
sheet was informed several days ago,
on inquiry over the telephone, that
tn rumor was without foundation,
but that dos not prevent its unscrup-
ulous scribes from asserting that they
have verified" it. They have nov
verified" it. They simply ''lie like
-" as prominent, citizen recent
ly said with more force and truth
than rhetorical elegance. o.
The story is false. The News"
has not obtained the controlling in
terest or any portion Of the stock OF
the Capital News, or any other Idaho
paper If the rumor, which the Cald-
we'll Tribune says comes from peo-
pie who ought to know" were traced
to it's source, it would probably be
found to have originated in the Salt
Lake Tribune office, where so many
falsehoods have been concocted and
sent over the country for sinister pur-
poses.
In this case the purpose is the
creation of the impression that the
Church is playing politics in Idaho

The report of the committee APP
pointed to look into the matter of
the Froman's Ferry road was called
for, but was not forthcoming. At
length a member of the committee
was dug up who was persuaded to
tell the condition of the road and
what was needed to put it into pass
able condition. This started a dis
cussion that began with roads in
general but soon particularized. When
there was lull someone moved that
the report be accepted and the COM
mittee INSTRUCTED to continue the good
work, which accordingly was done.
Then the committee on the En-
NETT road described its condition
(the roads, not the committee's) and
were delighted when the report was
accepted for they thought they would
be discharged. But they were not.
They were instructed to work right
along.
Then the committee on rural mail
routes proved to be absent and re-
port there was none; so the committee
was ordered continued by a unani-
nous vote.
