Following the adoption of the con-

The company has pledged already
$5O,15O.00 for insurance and
as soon as stationery and
supplies can be obtained and
the organization completed, they
will be ready for business. The COM
pany is composed of substantial far
mers in this county, and will without
a doubt furnish insurance to farmers
at a much lower rate than can be
obtained elsewhere, besides the mon
ey paid for premiums will be kept at
home and not be squandered on high
priced officials. The Tribune extends
congratulations to the Roswell peo-
pie in the establishment of the first
mutual fire insurance company to be
organized in Canyon County.

Mr.. Hoyet will next visit Nampa
and Meridian and then go to Parma,
New Plymouth, Emmett, Payette and
Weiser, after which he will visit the
Twin Falls country and then go to
the northern part of the state. 1t is
necessary that fifteen oranges be Or

Mr.. Hoyt is, not only the national
organizer for the grange, but is also
secretary of the New Hampshire
state fair, and is thoroughly posted
in agricultural subjects and Is withal
pleasant gentleman to meet. The
Tribune trusts that the farmers of
this section will look favorably on
the new organization and unite in
making Caldwell Grange No. 1 the
banner grange of the state.

Those Committees.

The Commercial Club at their an
nual meeting elected splendid
board of directors. They all have
the confidence of the Club and the
people. Now 1t is up to them to
make good. The matter of commit
tee appointments has been the cause
of much delay during the past year;
as has been too often the case that
when a committee was appointed to
look after some particular matter,
that the appointment was all that
was ever accomplished. The result
of this method was the cause of re-
mark being made by gentleman
who does things, when he said, 1.-THE
Caldwell Commercial Club are the
best starters l ever saw, but they are
also the d-st easiests cutters
ever met" That sentence too often
expresses the reason why some i'm
portant measure has never material
lied, after being placed in the hands
of a go-easy committee. Commercial
Clubs are no different than other Or
CARNATIONS, in that 1t always falls to
the lot of few members to shoulder
the greater part of the work. 1t is
to be hoped that these conditions
will not be permitted to continue in
the Club the coming year, but that
every member will be ready and will.

health officer, so much SO III fact that
he has been condemned by many of
the citizens who should have assisted
him, the physicians have not all been
obeying the law, they say nothing
about the people who have had the
smallpox or chicken pox and have
never notified the officer. The above
are few of the obstacles which DR..
Waldrop has had to contend with
while performing his duties. With the
above conditions existing in this
county is it any wonder that the ex-
penses for the last three months have
reached the sum of over $1,000. Had
everyone done his or her duty there
would have been but few cases of
contagious diseases in this county.
DR.. Waldrop's report shows that
there has been 1876 cases of smallpox,
Is casses of chicken pox, cases of
diphtheria, and % cases of scarlet
fever. 1t is doubtful if there is an
other county in the state with such
record. This condition does not
speak well for the citizenship of the
county and is not conducive to the
| best interests of the people There
has been a number of cases where
physician had to be appointed to
look after patients who were unable
to provide medical assistance. Ply
sicians come high in Dr. Waldrop' s
report it is found that $25 per
day was allowed to at least two ply
sicians, guards were allowed $3.50
per day, but it must be remembered
that they furnished their own con-
veyances for visiting the various
places under quarantine. The Tri-
bune is of the opinion that If an
example was made of some who
evade the law, that there would be
less smallpox and other contagious
diseases. and the expense to the coun.
ty would be reduced to minimum.

First Grange.

The first grange in Idaho was or
ganized Thursday night in Caldwell,
by the Honorable G. B. Hoyt of Con-
cord, New Hampshire, who is tho ma
tional organizer. Mr.. Hoyet is ac-
companied by his wife, who is greatly
interested in the great national or
ganization. Mr.. Hoyt is the owner
of 1000 broad acres of land in his
home state and came here largely
through the efforts of A. e. Gipson
and others. The national organiza-
ton Is very conservative about es-
tablishing oranges In new states,
while the subject of organizing in
Idaho has been under consideration
for quite awhile 1t was not until
the present, that 1t was decided to
enter upon the work In this state.
All those who are interested in
agriculture are tligible to member
ship. The objects of the order is
social and educational improvement
and cooperation in securing legisla-
ton that will be of benefit to the ag-
riculturist. 1t was largely through
the efforts of the grange that the
Rural Free Delivery was established
and many other wholesome laws were
enacted.
There will be a meeting next Tues
day night for the purpose of complet-
ing the organization and the installa-
ton of officers.
The following officers were elected
at Thursday nights meeting:
A. e. GIBSON, master; Elias Mel.
son, overseer; ]. F. McIntire, stew.
ard; w. Earl Norton, assistant over.
seer; w e. Bolten, chaplain; ]. B

George A. Snow, one of the gentle
men interested with Col. E. r. Place
in building of the S. F., & M. Rail
road, was in Caldwell this week for
the purpose of investigating the ply
steal condition of the country thru
which the first division will pass,
and also to get an idea of the prob
able amount of freight the road will
handle The investigations proved
to be entirely satisfactory, so much
so that work on the grade between
Caldwell and Homedale is to be COM
menced Immediately. Contracts will
be let to-day, and as soon as the
necessary papers are signed up the
work of moving dirt will commence.
Bids for the iron are being asked for,
and the contracts will be let in a
week or ten days. Plans and specifi-
cations for the bridge across the
Snake River, are all complete, and
the material will arrive in Caldwell
by the time the road is ironed to the
River. 1t is the intention of Col
Place to reach Sheaville with the
road by fall, thus giving the Owyhee
mining camps good road for haul
ing their freight, without having to

1t Comes High.

The bills for the county board of
health at the present session amount
to a few dollars over $1,000. This
amount appears to be excessive,
and perhaps it is, but who is to
blame? Is 1t the health officer or
the people? Many of the people will
blame the former for mourning the
expense. The act creating the state
board of health states very plainly
just what the duties of the health
officer is. 1t empowers him to es-
tablish a quarantine whenever in his
judgment 1t Is found necessary and to
appoint guards to see that the quar-
antine is effective. The law also
makes 1t an offense punishable by
fine or Imprisonment or both for any
person who has contracted a contag-
ious disease and nexlects to notify
a physician or officer. The law makes
it incumbent on any physician, who
may be called on t. attend person
having a contagious disease to estab-
lish a temporary quarantine and
failure to comply with the law, he
is liable to a heavy fine. So much
for the duties of the officers and the
people. The question arises has the
law been complied with In Canyon
county? 1t is a well known fact tina,

active in attending to his duties as

The country tributary to the road
is wonderfully rich in minerals, be-
sides being the greatest stock coun-
tidy in the northwest, and with the
building of this line there will be
increased activity in the mining
camps of the South Mountain and
Flint districts. In those camps the

poets are held by miners, just await
ing the advent of railroad, so that
the output of the mines can be hand
led without the expensive freight
charges.
The building of the road means
smelter for Caldwell and there is
no good reason why it should not
be built at this point, with the NAL
heur and Horseshoe Bend coal mines,
now being developed, with every
prospect for success, Caldwell would
be the natural location for a smelter,
as much of the ore north and south
of us is smelling ore. The Tribune
has frequently stated that Caldwell
is on the eve of a great awakening
and the Magic City will double in
population in the next 10 months.

and it was for the purpose of getting
the views of as many of the dairymen
as possible as to which would be
preferable.
The meeting was we'll attended,
several dairymen being present and
expressed their views, those present
appeared to be about equally divid-
ed on the proposition, but all agreed
that either one or the other should
be established. H. w. Dorman,
chairman of a committee recently ap-
pointed by the Club to investigate
the feasibility of establishing
creamery stated that he had made
some inquiries and found that cream
cry butter found a ready sale, one
store in Boise paid out last year to
creamery in Wyoming the sum of
$4,000. The firm bought their sup
ply in another state because they
could not get a. sufficient quantity at
home. Mr.. Boulton favored a cream
cry, Mr.. Miller likewise; Mr.. Garfield
would patronize either creamery or
condensary.
1t appeared from the expression of
those present that no one was posted
On the subject of a condensary, they
nearly all had experience with cream
cries, some good and some bad. Mr..
John Groome made an extended talk
favorable to the creamery. 1t was
finally decided that a committee of
two be appointed consisting of one
member from the Club and one from
the dairymen. John Groome was
selected by the dairymen as their
representative, while the Club has
not yet hade selection but will lat
err on. The duties of this commit
tee will be to visit some of the big
condensed factories on the coast and
also commercial creameries. When
this committee hands in their re-
port it will largely decide which of the
two will be established here. 1t will
require the signing up of 1000 cows
in order to get either of them. This
move on the part of the Club is the
most sensible thing that has been
done since the Club was organized
for the reason that both town and
county would be equally benefited.
]. H. Lowell made verbal report
concerning the advertising scheme
for the Payette and Boise valleys,
and E. H. Plowhead read written
report of the results of the recent
joint meeting of representatives from
the several commercial clubs on the
same subject. 1t was found that
Caldwell's assessment was $1,000;
the report was asccepted and the
Club is pledged to raise that amount
The meeting was one of the most in
teresting held for many moons and
great benefits will be derived from
it.

Gone Dry.

Cambridge, one of the live towns
in Washington county, is now dry
town by order of the county commits
sioners. A numerously signed petit
ton was presented asking that Ii
cense be granted, but a much larger
petition was presented protesting
against the granting of license. The
result was that no license was grant
ed. With the ever increasing senti-
ment favoring prohibition the query
is, why the temperance people of
Canyon county persist in advocating
local option. It has been suggested
by some that if prohibition law was
enacted that there are those who
would be out of job for the next
year.

THE STATE. MONEY.

The Boise Statesman and State Au-
forces for the purpose of discrediting
State Treasurer Hastings. The mani
fest motives of both parties are we'll
known. The Statesman always was
one of the strong Caryatides of civic
virtue and political morality. Its
reputation rests upon that alone. See
how magnanimous the Statesman was
toward Frank R. Gooding when he
became Governor. When he got into
a position to do something for the
Statesman, its recovery from blind
ness as to the Governors purity and
greatness came about as naturally as
the rising of the sun. There is an
example of disinterested unselfishness
hard to bet. State Auditor Bragaw
does not believe in the third term
and consequently it set his conscience
at rest and he would like to pc state
treasurer. That is a laudable ambi-
tion, but he had better not join forces
with the Statesman.
The Statesman, from the Auditors
report, thinks it discovers some ter
rible discrepancies in the deposit of
state funds. Notwithstanding this
brilliant discovery, Treasurer Hast
ings stands ready at any time to per-
NIT the proper authorizes to go over
his books, cunt up his securities and
make their report. Mr.. Goslind has
recently gone thru the office and
reports it in excellent condition. 1t
Is charged and we believe admitted
that some banks have deposited with
the State Treasurer, county warrants
as security for bank deposits. This
may not be exactly within the title Of
the law but it Is certainly within
the spirit and the people are not
worrying. 1t secures interest to the
state on money that would otherwise
be lying idle in the vaults of the
State Treasury. The money SO de-
posted in banks is amply secured,
and what is the use of worrying. We
are inclined to think that the States
man is worrying more about dethron-
ing Mr.. Hastings than it is about
the deposits of state money.
There is another thing that must
make Ex-Governor Morrison smile.
The Statesman claims that it is the
father of the State Depository law,
and advocated such measure twenty
years ago. We always understood
that Mr.. Morrison had something to
do with bringing forth the idea in
Idaho. We may be mistaken, though,
as we frequently are. Probably the
Statesman conceived the idea, but
held it in the recess of it's mind until
an opportune time. Then it sought
out Mr.. Morrison and had him give
force to the idea. If 1t did this it
certainly used good judgment. An
idea coming from Mr.. Morrison car
ries weight, but we never heard of
like result with an idea originating
with the Statesman.

How it Happened.

The Lewiston Tribune publishes
the following incident explaining just
how Ex-senator Dubois captured the
Latah County delegates to the demo-
cratic convention. BY the time Fred
gets thru with the Idaho democrats
there won't be enough of them left
TO flag a hand car.
-" Judge s. s. Denning of Moscow
reports a meeting of the democratic
central committee of Latah County
On Saturday as follows:
:" w. NJ Morgan, chairman, and
John Lieuallen, secretary, called a
meeting for Saturday of the commit
tee. 1t seems that all the committee
men who responded to the call, to-
gether with their friends, were Du
bois men and it appeared to be a pre-
arranged affair. w. M. Morgan, the
chairman, who claims to be a straight
out democrat and aginst the Mormon
issue, immeditely on the organization
of the committee, resigned as chair
man and abandoned the ship. Henry
Rangs, an old silver republican AMI
strong Dubois man, was then elected
chairman. They proceeded without
further ado to select eleven of
themselves as delegates to the Twin
Falls convention, the other two be-
ing F. g. Mix and Jerome Day Frank
Cornwall and myself appeared before
the meeting and objected and pro-
tested against the proceedings, as it
was packed in the interest of Dubois,
and that the party thruout the Coun-
| ty had had no opportunity to be
| heard-that their action was AFRO
| CANT and arbitrary, and We further
| warned them that the Democrats
| of Latah County would call a con-
| yention and send a contesting dele.
cation to the state convention be-
| cause nearly all of the democrats OF
| the county care nothing for Dubois
and his Mormon issue, it being look,

text by the old silver republicans and
those upon whom Dubois has a mort,
gage for past favors to assist him
back into the U. S. senate and keeI
| the fight up at the expense of the
democratic party. Another thinS
that the dem ocrats do not look upoI
with favor is that the sheriff's offic'
has become headquarters for Dubois
interests
