made sixteen scores during the after

with eleven runs, but just to show

ceived by convict, was made clear in
Adhesion just handed down by the court
of appeals. A convict named Mason
charged that he was sub-let by Handy

this company ordered him into dan
gerous position, he was injured. In the
lower court demurrer was sustained,
and this judgment is sustained by the
higher court. The court declares that

BETTER GO SLOW.

At the meeting of the city council
held Thursday evening, was introduc-
ed an ordinance increasing the salar-
les of all salaried officers and giving
a salary to all non-salaried officers.
The ordinance provides that the
mayor shall be paid $50 per month,
instead of nothing as at present; the
six councilmen $500 per meeting in
stead of nothing; the clerk $4,000 per
month, an increase of $500; city at
torney $500 per month for all SER
vice required by law, including the
revision of the city ordinances for the
fiscal year commencing May l, 1909,
and thereafter $4,000 per month. His
present salary is $500 per month,
City engineer $500 per day, which is
the same as at present. The treas
urer is increased from $500 to $1,000
per month. The superintendent Of
water works and pumps gets $4,000
per month instead of $500. The chief
of police gets a raise of $500 per
month. He now receives $500 and
will get $4,000. Other policemen are
raised from $500 to $1,000. The new
ordinance will increase the running
expenses of the city government about
$1sOOOO per year at a conservative
estimate. The financial condition Of
Caldwell is such that the increase In
expenditure should not be made. 1t
may be that the present officers are
underpald; but there are plenty of
good men who will fill the Offices at
the present salaries. Taxes are al
ready burdensome in Caldwell; and
the people are beginning to grumble.
They will not silently permit need
less increase in expenditures. 1t has
been proved time and again that un-
der local option or prohibition the
cost of administration of city affairs
was SO decreased, that the loss of the
saloon revenues was not felt. Here
is Caldwell on the verge of local op-
ton, and consequently on the brink
of losing the saloon licenses, actual
ly increasing public expenditures for
the enforcement of the law, This
seems poor policy to The Tribune. We
think the city council should go slow.
1t should wait until it is conclusively
proved that the officers should re-
ceive larger salarise.

The Caldwell Commercial club was
organized several years ago, on
plain, unpretentious plan. The work
accomplished was so great that the
business men felt inclined to reorgan-

was done about two years ago. The
work since accomplished has been
tremendous in many respects. A de-
tailed account of the work done Is
unnecessary at this time. The officers

as superintendent of the district and

appointed in his stead. Mr.. Sewer has
had charge of the canal for several
years and has given universal salts
faction and his resignation will prove
surprise to the farmers who depend
on their water supply from the Phyl-
lis canal. However, The Tribune has
been assured by Director Dickson
that Mr.. Bennett has had twenty years
experience on Colorado bitches and is
one of the most competent men of the
mountain country. Mr.. Sewers health
is said to be the cause for his resig-
nation.

SENATOR HEPBURN.

If ever there was man whom the
people of a sovereign state desired to
return to the United States senate,
that man is Weldon B. Hepburn. For
six years, nearly, he has served the
people of Idaho and of the United
States. in the United States senate.
Many times in that period he has been
weighed and not found wanting. On
every occasion he has taken the stand
for the people Some Of us have at
times thought him in error, but he
has always proved that his judgment
was right in every main essential.
For twenty years there was a senate
committee on manufactures, etc. Dur
ing the 20 years that committee was
in a comotose state. 1t became such
a joke that no one took it or its
members seriously. The chairman
regularly introduced some sort of a
pure food bill but 1t always died
aborning. Senator Hepburn came
along, the powers that be in the sem
ate played him the usual joke, by
making him chairman of the COM
mittee. The senator takes his duties
seriously. He couldn't see any joke,
but he held joker up his sleeve. He
went to work with energy, ability and
persistency. In four years we had
our splendid, national pure food law.
He was then made chairman of the
national codification committee. He
has already done wonders on this
committee. In the senate he has stood
against the big corporations. He has
fought the lumber syndicate and the
railroad companies, when it was to the
interests of the people to do so. He
fought the present pernicious forest
policy and has done much to correct
abuses. In short Senator Hepburn
has been one of the ablest, most con-
sistent and fearless members of that
august body. Idaho did we'll in re-
electing him. There may be other
men in Idaho who could do as we'll.
We think there are, but we also think
that the senator's good work entitled
him to a reelection.

his best They are all entitled to
special concentrations. They set an
illustrious example for the incoming
officers. We are convinced that our
new officers win handle affairs as well
a nd intelligently as the outgoing Of
ficers did. Of course we know Attor-
ney Van Duyn and Judge Hagelin, as
they have been with us for years.
Sheriff Breshears has had great ex-
perlence in his office. He served as
deputy for a long time. Assessor
Crowther has the appearance OF a
man of. ability and energy. He should
make a first class officer. Miss Carl
ton is a teacher of experience and
ability. She has won most enviable
reputation throughout the county. The
commissioners are all new men as
county officers. They are, however,
keen-sighted business men, and will
handle county affairs in most sat
isfactory manner. The Tribune as
sures the people of the county OF
good, clean, honest administration for
the next two years.
