Weiser Valley,

Attorney Sebring got the land
buyers fever and made trip to Coun-
Gil this week. He reports that land
values are going up by leaps and
bounds. Lands which sold a couple of
weeks ago for $40 are now worth SIS.
There was considerable excitement
one day this week when a couple of
big red automobiles were unloaded as
they were the first machines ever
seen in what is to be the future me-
tropolis of Washington county. Mr..
Sebring was very much impressed
with the Weiser valley and predicts
a bright future for Council. Mr.. B.
NJ Holt, of Caldwell, is in charge of
the townsite company property and is
having the town plated; work on the
new hotel is being started.

ed Perfect weather was enjoyed
throughout the session, and The Trib-
une is confident that every delegate

HOMESTEADERS' DAY.

Throughout many sections of the
east, home coming week is appropri-
ately observed; in Utah and southern
Idaho, Pioneer Day is celebrated; and
in Caldwell 1t is proposed to celebrate
Homesteaders' Day. The idea is to
make this celebration a permanent
affair in the future, and 1t is the in
tention to devote the day to the en-
tertainment of the homesteaders. The
turning on of the water through the
headgates of the Deer Flat reservoir
sets an appropriate date for the cele-
bration. Every person owning prop

1T DOESN'T PAY.

Not long since the people of Cald-
we'll and Rockville joined together for
the purpose of getting a telephone
built from Caldwell to that point. The
Bell people were appealed to and re-
fused pointblank. The matter was
then taken up with the Independent
company, which Immediately express
ed willingness to construct the line.
When the Bell heard of this, it got
busy at once, and in consideration of
the people along the line buying cou-
pons in the sum of 100000 the line
was built. Now the Bell has decided
to tear down and abandon the line.
OF course the people are protesting.
We do not know how the controversy
will finally end. 1t would serve the
people of Caldwell right, if the line
were abandoned. We interested the
Independent company, and then used
that company to force the Bell. We
didn't treat the Independent right, and
we can't kick much if we don't get a
square deal 1t don't pay in the long
run to do business in that way. AT
the time The Tribune protested, and
time has shown the wisdom of it's pro-
test

Death of MIR. Rogers.

Henry H. Rogers, who died yester-
day in New York, was one of the most
important figures in American bust
ness life. He was a Standard Oil
magnate; he was a mining magnate;
he was a mighty money magnate; he
was a great industrial magnate, and
he was a magnate in the charitable
world.
He made much of his money in ways
that are now condemned, by combina-
tons; driving out competitors, some
times with ferocious brutality; by re-
bates; and by taking every possible
advantage. But he won, and that
seemed to him and to his generation
the main thing. Men fought him and
denounced him; but they admired and
feared him. And often his way was
made smooth by the fact that to re-
sist him was futile and might be dan
gerous.
He was a man of good forethought;
he made his plans with marvellous
skill, taking into account all the fac
tors in the problem, and when he was
ready he pursued those plans with
strenuous and remorseless energy.
And at the last he exhibited the same
traits of forethought and exact pre-
paration. Forewarned by stroke of
apoplexy in 1907, he proceeded to put
his house in ORDER" and so arrange his
affairs that his death will cause NO
break in the steady flow of his bust
ness. The latest of his great achieve
ments was the building of the Deep;
water" railway, from West Virginia
to the Atlantic, which he made a per-
sOnal matter, and which cost hin
$40,000,000. But it is a magnificent
property and will pay well.
Mr.. Rogers studiously withheld in
formation about his age. He gave the
place of his birth, but not the date
He was probably about rs, however
and he lasted we'll for a man of his
strenuous activities. He was a great
but despotic Ameircan.-Salt Lake

In the careful luxury OF the old-fashioned
Virginia home was invited to visit the
kitchen of a great Chicago hotel. She
wanted to 60, but was afraid. When
asked why, she replied, "Tm afraid I'll
see something that will forever destroy
my appetite for hotel food" She went,
and found everything delightfully."- clean.

If you took a handful of oats and

Quaker Oats from the field to your

estly invited to attend and participate
in the celebration. Upon the attend
ance of the homesteaders depends the
success of the day. The completion OF
the south side part of the project
marks an important epoch in the his
tory of Canyon and Ada counties, and
the day should be commemmorated.
Caldwell as the central point, is the
place to assume the burden of making
the occasion a success. AS every
town within the project is a benetci-
airy, it is expected that they will all
participate. 1t is not a Caldwell day
and other towns should keep that in
mind. It so happens that Caldwell is
more centrally located and has better
Transportation facilities than any
other one town for such celebration.
The committees decided to make
everything free so that rich and poor
can enjoy all there is without cost.
There will be plenty to keep all inter-
ested from nine o'clock in the morn
ing until IL o'clock at night One of
the big attractions will be the address
by the secretary of the interior, who
will attend the celebration of the COM
pletion of this, the governments great

all over the Northwest will attend.

THIS LOOKS GOOD.
New Subdivision Prize Winner.

New Subdivision Prize Winner.
We are from Missouri, hence must
be shown. We know the public must
be shown. We say we can show you
the most ideal fruit land and location
for fruit culture in Southern Idaho.
Since our Caldwell orchards has be-
come the prize winning orchard of this
United States, we have looked this
county over most carefully for an
ideal site for the growing of our ia
nous prize winning apples, and be-
lieve without exception that we have
procured 225 acres, located upon the
most attractive site for fruit growing
in Idaho. We have named this tract
Orchard Heights, because it has an
elevation of So feet higher than lands
around Caldwell and the valley pro-
per, and has a strong slope to the
north, which is acknowledged the
most preferable slope for fruit lands
In addition to the very essential fruit
growing conditions that this land has,
its location, accessibility to water and
car line, and the elegant view obtain
ed of Boise valley, Caldwell, and Nam
pa, is not surpassed in the entire val
ley.
The Deer Flat Caldwell canal par
allells the south side line The Cald-
we'll Interurban is the west boundary
line. The tract adjoins the expert
mental farm on the north. The land
was formerly owned by R. E. Morgan
and Geo. Critzer. It adjoins the city
limits on the south, and is about two
miles from the post office.
Orchard Heights is on the market
now in 10 acre tracts, at low price and
liberal terms. Remember, when you
buy these tracts You buy direct from
the owners. Call and get our prices

It's funny how team, when it has
been beaten for number Of times,
will rise up, become strong, and ad-
minister Q little defeat to their old
rivals. 1t is queer, but such was the
case last Sunday, when the L'Anse
boys visited their sister village, and by
superior playing, as the scoring will
show, administered defeat to their
opponents across the lake.
Mostly all Of the L'Anse runs were
made in threes, the bases becoming
full and some good hits cleaning them
off. Aronson, their best pitcher was
knocked out of the box in the fifth or
sixth inning, and was substituted
through the balance Of the game by SEQ
field, whom L'Anse found easy to reach.
As sort of explanation, we must also
say that Baraga hit the L'Anse pitchers
hard, Nilsen and Hendricks acting as
twirlers. but most of the hits seemed
to be in the wrong place at the wrong
time.
Only once during the game was L 'Anse
in danger of losing the game, and that
was when Baraga claimed the lead for
an inning by score ofl2 to 10, but this
claim was short winded, for L'Anse
took the honors thereafter and held
them to the close of the game.
But tomorrow's game at Baraga will
be hot one. if the weather permits.
The championship of the county will
be decided upon at this contest for once
and all. Baraga will put up strong
lineup and L,Anse will put up the best
they have. Large side bets between
members of the team are up and it
promises to be the prettiest game of
the season.
The lineup of the L'Anse team is:-
E. Seavoy, catcher; Nilsen, pitcher;
Brennan, 1st. base; Soil End base;R. Van
Able, short stop; Edwards, left field;
Durand, center field; Picard, right field.
Octave Seavoy, center field.

Educating Nurses.

Philadelphia, the city of brotherly
Love, has an exhibition of practical
benevolence. in the work of the Phil
adelphia School for Nurses which is
Of surprising interest to every one
interested in the care of the sick, the
education of nurses and the promotion
of public health and sanitation.
The animal report showed that dur
ing the past year ten thousand, two
hundred and seventy five patients were
supplied with nurses, who otherwise
could not have secured skilled nursing
care. Four-fifths Of this service was
rendered gratuitously. 1t was shown
also that in teaching facilities, available
workers and number of students, the
school ranks as the largest school in
the world.
Clara Barton, the world renowned
nurse and manager of field hospital
work, and organizer of the Red Cross
Society, having for many years observed
the efficient work of the Philadelphia
school for nurses, recently invited DR..
Eugene Underhill. founder Of the in
stitution, to visit her, and be present at
a conference in her summer home in
Oxford, Mass, for the purpose of con-
sidering the advisability of reproducing
the work in the larger New England
cities.

field, Bridgeport, NewHaven. Providence
and other manufacturing centers called
attention to the need of this service for
their respective cities.
Several large classes of students are
about to be enrolled in the Philadelphia
school for nurses, who will, doubtless,
witness the extension of the work of
the institution in accordance with plans
now developing rs result of the recent
New England conferences. A large
number of free two year scholarships
are available to young women through
out the entire country, preference being
given. to those living in the smaller
towns and cities, and the rural districts.
These scholarships include room,
board laundering, uniforms, all necessary
instructions, and railroad fare paid to
the students home town upon compile
ton of the course. A preparatory Home
Study Course and Short Residence

for self-support, but are unable to de-
vote two years to study. Any reader
