They Moved On.

An incident occurred in Nampa
Thursday in which couple of Cald-
well men were the victims and Nam
pa cigar dealer the principal. AS the
story goes, 1t appears that two live
stock men from Caldwell were tran
sacting some business with Nampa
man. After dinner they entered the
Imperial cigar store and purchased
cigars. After lighting their Havanas
they proceeded to talk business, when
the man In charge Of the store in
formed them that II they were not
going TO spend any more money they
had better move one, as no loafing
was permitted. The question now is,
did the Caldwell crowd so much re-
semble ordinary fioaters. or was II
only the cussedness of the proprietor
which caused them to be ordered out
of the store?

In the situation indicative of early
general activity. Further improve
ment in the industrial end is neces-
sary before raw material comes into
active demand. Supplies in this and
all other distributing centers are large
and increasing. The transfers of new

margin. Dealers as a rule are in
clined to sell rather than hold, not
taking the risk of losing a customer
that may supply his requirements
somewhere else. Improvement is
slow, the squirt of the last fortnight
not having extended to all depart
ments of the trade. Yet there is a
hopeful feeling and a certainty in all
quarters that the situation is mend

the same. DR.. Johnston is a very in
teresting talker and her subject pro-
voked considerable discussion. 1t was
6 o'clock before the meeting adjourned
for dinner. The local physicians had
made provision for entertaining their
guests at the residence of Rev. Long,
where a splendid dinner was served,
after which the meeting reconvened
at 8 p. m.
The 8 o'clock meeting was strictly
a business meeting. A legislative COM
mittee was appointed, consisting of
Drs. Maxey, Cue and Woodland, who
will have charge of matters to come
up at the next session of the legisla-
ture.
The next quarterly meeting occurs
in October. 1t was decided to pass the
next meeting, as the regular annual
meeting OF the society will be held
in October at Boise City. No more
quarterly meetings will be held until
January, when a meeting will be held
at Payette. The date was not deter
mined at this time.
Those present were: Jacob Perrin

The Old City Hall.

The old shack, which had ben doing
duty as city hall until the new edi-
fee was finished, is now being taken
down and the material will be used
in constructing tool house near the
pump house. The building Is one Of
the Oldest in the city, having been
built by f. R. Coffin 6 Co in 1888, and
used by them for store until they
built the brick at the corner of Main
and Kimball streets. The new build

NOW YOU SEE IT;
NOW YOU DON'T

There does not appear to be very
much difference in the opinions be-
tween representatives OF the two fac
lions of the democrats in this state.
They both claim to have. won out at
Denver, and will win out at the Wal
lace convention.
The following extracts are taken
from interviews appearing in the
Boise dailies. The first is the utter
ance of Tim Regain, who evidently
speaks with authority, and the other
is the opinion of John F. Nugent. So
far as the correctness of the state
ments are concerned, the reader can
take his choice.
In answer to the question as to
whether the Dubois faction believed
they could control the Wallace con-
vention, Mr.. Regain said:
Mos assuredly. We were confident
of doing so before the Denver conven-
ton was held and certainly have cause
to be more confident than ever now
that we have proved that We were in
the right at Twin Falls. We would
like to have harmony, but not at the
price of principle, and while we are
willing to make some concessions, we
demand that our opponents shall
make more. for we are firmly resolved
that no backward step shall be taken
at Wallace"
Mr.. Nugent said:
I'VE have been waging bitter in
ternal fight here for months, but every
man who is a democrat from principle
and who places his party above any
man in the organization. and who
honestly desires to achieve success
this fall, will abide by what he knows
to be the concensus of opinion of the
democrats of the entire country as ex'
pressed at Denver, and | firmly be-
lieve we will go into the Wallace con
vention a united party, adopt a plat
form and nominate a ticket every
democratic man and woman can con
scientiously support, and II we do tina
there is no question but that we will
make a clean sweep"
Mr.. Regan is one of the prominen
democrats Of the state, at one tim
having been a candidate for stat
treasurer. Mr.. Nugent is a prominen
young attorney and 1t is said aspire
to go to congress.

The South Idaho District Medical
Society met in the Commercial club
rooms in this city Wednesday. While
the meeting was called for 10 a. m, it
was l p. m. before President Young
called the members to order. The first
in order was the reports of the secre-
tary treasurer, and other routine bust
ness, which was disposed of before the
regular order was taken up.
The first paper read was by DR.. c. L.
Dutton of Meridian, entitled "A Few
Remarks on Educating the Public on
Venerial Diseases" The paper was
perhaps of more Importance than any
other that was read at this meeting,
so much so in fact that the society, by
a vote, decided to have it read at the
meeting of the state society and have
it published for distribution. The idea
conveyed was to have the parents in
struct their boys regarding the dan
ger of contracting venerial diseases.
The question of controlling prosti-
tuition was discussed in connection
with the paper. The article and the
discussion were both interesting and
instructive.
The next paper was by DR.. Ed. e.
Maxey, entitled 'Exophthalmic Col
tre." DR.. Maxey cited cases which
had come under his observation, and
also gave the treatment used. The
aper was discussed by various mem
hers.
DR.. Nourse read paper entitled,
Mouth Breathing, a Cause of Nasal
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Asthma" DR.
Nourse handled his subject In a thor
ough manner, and was given close at
tention.
DR.. Taylor was down for a paper
entitled "A National Department OF
Health: DR.. Taylor not being present
his paper was read by DIR. Maxey. The
paper urged the necessity Of having
the government establish a depart
ment similar to the agricultural ant
other departments, practically makinl

cabinet.

Parma-RosweH Picnic.

The annual picnic of the residents
of Parma and Roswell was held
Thursday at Anderson grove, near
Parma. The picnic has grown from
a neighborhood affair, until it has as
sumed the proportions of a county
celebration. There is regular organ
ization and an effort will be made
to secure 40 acres at some desirable
point in the vicinity Of the two places
for the purpose of having permanent
improvements made, so that there will
be fixed place to hold picnics and
other meetings.
1t Is estimated that fully 1900 peo-
pie were present at the meeting. ID.
R. Hubbard was the principal speaker
of the day. The occasion was enliv-
ened by foot races and other sports.
A game of ball completed the exer-
cises of the day.

ing the class of people who were de-
sirable as permanent settlers proved
that he was close observer. He said
the class most necessary was those
who had some cash, and could make
improvements on the land. Speaking
further about the script, he said that
the department was anxious for the
success of the plan, as eastern papers
had opposed the measure of the de-
partment issuing money, and it had
been predicted that the discount
would be so large that it would dis
parage the interior department by
causing dissatisfaction among the set
tiers. The Deer Flat proposition hav-
ing been the first where this scheme
had been tried, the thought appeared
to prevail through his talk that the
business community should assist in
keeping the script as near par as pos
sible. In regard to the sale of por-
ton of homestead, after having
proved up, and before water was on
the land, he said that there was no
law which would sanction a sale on
those conditions. The secretary fully
realizes the conditions which confront
many settlers who filed on 100 acres
before the land was withdrawn, for
the purpose of organizing the project.
He stated that he fully realized that in
order to continue on the land, that in
many instances a portion of the land
must be sold in order to improve the
remainder, and it would be necessary
for congress to so amend the present
law that sales could be made without
being detriment to the country. The
object of the government is to prevent
the land as much as possible from be-
ing bought by spectators. Secretary
Garfields talk was plain, candid
statement, made in pleasing man.

GARFIELD VISITS THE
BIG IRRIGATION Project

The long-deferred visit of Secretary
Garfield to the Payette-Boise reclama-
ton project, was realized Monday,
when special car arrived over the
Boise Interurban, containing as pas
sengers Secretary j. R. Garfield, Gov
ernor Gooding, F. H. Newell, director
of the reclamation service, Arthur p.
Davis, chief engineer of the service,
and two secretaries. Mr.. Forbes
Lindsay also accompanied the party.
Mr.. Lindsay is magazine writer on
irrigation subjects, and was with the
party for the purpose of gaining in
formation to be used for future arti-
cles. On the arrival of the party in
Caldwell, they were met by a num-
Der Of citizens and escorted to the
Commercial club rooms, where an in
formal reception was held for short
time, giving all who desired an OPP
portunity to meet the secretary of the
interior.
Secretary Garfield made very ia
vorable impression on all who had the
pleasure of meeting him. While he is
not man who would at first impress
person as being an intellectual
giant, yet he has a very pleasant man
ner, which at once captivates those
coming in contact with him, and you
are bound to get the impression that
he is honest and sincere in what he
has to say. After a half hours gen.
.eral conversation, Judge Smith called
the meeting to order and introduced
Secretary Garfield, who spoke for a
few minutes regarding the work &C
complished by the Payette-Boise
Water Users association. He dwelt
particularly on the subject of the is
suing of the script, as being supple
mentary in assisting in getting the
project completed and also as being
beneficial in the settlement of the
country. He said that the difficult
part was yet to come, having refer.
ence to the payment of the funds ad.
vanced by the government in the con.
struction of the reservoirs and later.

PUTTING in
A Siding

The Boise Interurban Electric COM
pany have put in 400-foot siding at
]. p. Wilson's place. Mr.. Wilson will
build packing house for his own
convenience during the fruit season
and will also furnish room for other
fruit growers in that vicinity This
arrangement will obviate a ave-mile
drive to Caldwell; beside, the fruit
will be put up without injury from
handling. Mr.. Wilson has one of the
best-kept ranches in this country. Joe
has an unwritten law which requires
that all weeds be exterminated. The
Wilson home Is five miles from Cald-
well, conveniently located on the cleo
trio road, and the siding just finished
is just across the fence from his pruAe
orchard, which is loaded with fruit.
He estimates that there will be be-
tween eight and ten cars of very
choice prunes for shipment this fall.
Prunes are not the only fruit the farm
contains, as there are rs cherry trees,
besides apples, plums and small fruit
in almost endless variety. Mr.. Will
son offered his farm for sale last
spring for $4,000. His fruit alone
this year will produce half Of that
amount. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson are
among the early settlers Of this valley
and have large circle Of friends who
would regret to see them leave II they
should sell the ranch.

The following Is condensed report
of Secretary Garfield's remarks made
at the Commercial club rooms at
Boise:
Secretary Garfield opened by ex-
pressing his pleasure at meeting so
many of the representative citizens Of
Idaho and paid compliment to the
states delegation in congress, saying
that our representatives had made it
plain to him that Idaho was promi-
nent amoung the great sisterhood Of
states, so ably had they presented the
many phases of it's industrial posi-
bilities and development. Discussing
the purpose OF his present trip, he
said he had always believed in get
ting personally In touch with condi-
tons in which he was interested and
had never believed In relying solely
Upon written reports for his informa-
ton. He added that he had been west
a great many times, but not until last
year, when he made trip similar tc
the present one, was he able to get or
the inside Of AFFAIRS SO that he coult

get at the problems presented In con-
nection with public lands at first hand.
THE underlying principle of the
land laws" he said, is to make 1t
possible for the individual who wants
to build home to have an opportun-
ity to get the land-to own it, not SIM
ply to use it-something from which
he can get not merely his daily bread
but which will give him home where
he can support himself and his fam
ily."
Methods Of Government.
The secretary discussed briefly the
various methods by which the govern
ment disposes of its lands to indivi-
duals, explaining in turn the purpose
of the desert land act, the Carey act
and the reclamation act. He dwelt
upon the point that there should be no
conflict of interests and that all
should get together and work in har-
mony. The interior department, he
said, was now working to clear away
all differences in this connection. He
aroused marked applause by referring
to the new policy of the interior de-
partment in connection with the dis
posal of public lands as follows:
Our special agents have been CIV
en- instructions that their duty Is as
much to aid the honest entryman to
secure his patents as to bring the dis
honest entryman to the bar of JUS
tice."
He then went on to explain in this
connection that it was the policy of
the department to secure as special
agents men who were not only famil-
| lar with the rules and regulations of
the department but who were famil-
lar with the localities in which they
were to work. Agents might be APP
pointed who were unworthy, he said,
but he would quickly rid the service
of them where specific charges were
proved against them.
Work Of Interior Department.
Speaking Of the work of the interior
department among the Indians, Secre-
tary Garfield said 1t was not his be-
lief that they should be educated be-
yond their needs, but simply up to
their needs.
! The work of the department in re
gard to the classification of lands 81
that the greatest good to the creates
number might be obtained WIS ther
Interestingly touched upon by the
secretary and he gave an interesting
account of affairs in the Hawaiian is
lands, which he had just visited. H,
said the department of the interior
was trying to introduce the American
idea of individual ownership Of homes
in the islands instead of the presen
system of great plantations with hun
dreds of laborers living upon then
and working for one land owner. S,
that eventually the island territorie
would be ripe for statehood.
In conclusion, the secretary said
Il can only thank you again and sa.
that 1 want your cooperation and
can assure you that you will have m
cooperation in everything that tn
state of Idaho wants to do and Il
which can help YOU"

THE FINE WAS PAID.

c. E. Edwards, alias Thompson, a
travelling photographer, who was
arraigned IN justice court Thursday Of
last week Oh complaint of Robert
kaestner, charged with using obscene
and threatening language, was found
guilty of the charge and fined S. and
costs, amounting to S32, shortly after
six 0 clock that afternoon.
He did not have money on his
person wherewith to pay the fine and
costs of the case at the time, and at
first said he would appeal the case.
Later, however, he asked to be
allowed to go and get the money to
pay the fine, and his request was
granted. Taking advantage Of this,
he left the city without paying even
SO much as his attorneys fees. When
the young fellow failed to snow up
and square himself with the re-
representatives. of the law, the
authorities began to look him up.
The result was that on Wednesday
Sheriff Long brought Mr.. Photo
grapher back to this city, and he was
given the choice Of either paying up
or serving it out behind the bars.
Things did look real bad for Edwards
and he pleaded for liberty in seven
different ways, but without success.
Finally the manager Of the Twin City
Photo company, for which the man
was travelling, telephoned that his
company would stand good for the fine
and costs, whereupon Edwards was
given his freedom after receiving an
excellent lesson.
