LOOK into The
WATER WORKS

One of the first duties of the new
administration should be to look after
the finances of the water works. The
clerks books show that there is Ga
delinQuents running from one to five
months. In a number of cases rents
have not been collected and the ten
ants have moved or left the city. The
ordinance says that If the water rents
are not paid by the tenth of the fol-
lowing month that the water shall be
shut of from the property. The wa
ter works should be more than self
sustaining, but as long as the import
ant item of collecting is neglected,
there is not much show for a surplus
to accumulate in that fund. Then
again, there are a number of resi-
dences where meters should be in
stalled. These are few of the items
which confront municipal ownership.
If the water system was owned by
private parties doubtless these little
matters would be watched much
closer. The Tribune has no criticism
to make on the present superintendent
but the fact that much of the city
business has been run on rather loose
principles, 1t has become somewhat
contagious and it will be up to the
new administration to turn over new
leaf

The HAzELWOOD
CREAMERY DONE
HaxIewOOd Creamery.

The new building to be occupied by
the Lakewood Creamery is nearly
completed. The first floor, which Is
25x5O feet, will be occupied by the
machinery, while the second story
will be used for offices. The cream
cry building Is built In connection TO
the Ice plant. The storage rooms have
been equipped with pipes connected
with the Ice plant thus assuring an
abundance of cold air for any guam
THY OF butter. Mr., l.. r. Clough, the
resident manager is In the city and
will permanently locate here. The
company is already purchasing cream
in considerable quantities and will be
prepared In about three weeks to
manufacture, At present the cream is
being shipped to Spokane, Besides
the manufacture of butter the firm
will engage extensively in the manu-
facture of Ice cream. The Caldwell
Cold Storage Co. have arrangements
for putting 1900 crates of eggs in
their building, room having been
built for this especial purpose.
The creamery and cold storage ia
cillties will work nicely with the new
Touring mill, and elevator, when all
are in working order. There will be
nothing that the farmer can raise but
that he can And a market for at Cald-
well. With the sure increase in the
number of cows in this valley 1t fol-
lows that the mill will find a ready
sale for the bran and shorts, thus
making home market for the offal.
Just watch Caldwell spread.

How Long vim the Clock Run9

Mrs. Convey was the successful
holder of the ticket which drew the
$500 prize at the Fair store. Mr..
Aven gives a ticket to each customer
who purchases $1.OO worth of goods,
which entities the holder to one guess
as to the time the clock in the store
will run down. The person guessing
nearest the time gets $500 in cash.
The announcement is made each Fri
day. Although this is only the second
time the scheme has been tested, yet
the interest has reached such a point
that standing room was scarce yes
terday when the announcement was
made that Mrs. Convey was the win
ner of the $500 and Mrs. e. 3. Glib

member that this is no lottery; the
success depends on how close a CUES

control OF the liquor business was con-
cerned, the question which confronted
the voters was, which of the two can
didates was the better man to look
after the interests of the city. Mr..
Gowen was the choice by a majority
of "a. The personnel Of the council
will be as follows: M. A. Devers and
Robert Farrar, from the first ward:
Elmer A. Clark and James Gartin
from the second; and James Gibson
and l. N. Paynter from the third. It
is generally expected that there will
be several changes made in the ap-
pointive offices. Mayor Gowen has
given 1t out that no appointments will
be made until the members of the
council have been consulted with.
While the Tribune favored the election
of Mr.. Gowen and gave its reasons for
so doing, it reserves the right to criti-
CHE the new administration If a criti-
cism is due.

Hall of the college. under the direc-
ton of the Associated Student Body of
the College of Idaho, Monday, April

J. b. Gowen, mayor-elect of Cald-
we'll, was born at Farbault, Mimi, In
1866 and came with his parents to
Nebraska In 1881, and was an en-
ployee of the Pacific Express Co. as
agent and messenger for several
years, In 1894 he was western rep
resentative of one of the largest live
stock commission companies In oma-
ha. He moved with his family to
Caldwell in 1898 and has ever since
been one Of the leaders in every en-

return to Denver, he made a favorable
report to his associates, with the re-
suit that Messrs. Breckenridge and
Johnson made a special trip to this
city and closed the deal.
1t is through the efforts of Mr..
Holt that this important enterprise
has been brought to successful con-
clusion. The Tribune is not in q
position to publish all the details con-
nected with the deal, but 1t is of suf-
fcient magnitude to say that it means
mort to Caldwell than any other bus
mess enterprise ever started In this
city. The company has unlimited
capital and will be prepared to handle
all the grain that can be produced in
this country. The Denver Mill and
Elevator Co. have plants at st. An
thony, Jerome, and Twin Falls, In
operation and will have others before
snow flies this fall. The capital stock
for the Caldwell plant is $4,000, the
latest and most improved milling ma
chinery will be installed and when
completed, will be one of the most
up-to-date Touring mills in the state.

CITY PAYS
ITS HOBOES

The city council met in adjourned
meeting Thursday night with four
members and the mayor present. The
minutes of the previous meeting were
read and approved. The reports of the
various officers were read and approx
ed. On motion OF Jones, the bridges
were accepted and bonds released. The
vote of the recent election was can
vassed and no errors were found.
Il appears from the minutes of the
council that they were bound to con-
tinue their reckless manner of trans
acting business and the profigate ex-
penditure OF money. Chief Hodson
presented a bin for $500 for money
paid the two hoboes who were work.
tng on the streets last week, The
facts In the case are Rs follows: The
two hoboes were arrested for being
drunk and dlsorderly and when
brought into the police court were
fined by Judge shorb $500 each and
costs, amounting in all to $1,000. The
tourists not having the mazumah in
sufficient quantity, they were turned
over to the chief of police. who PUT
them to work on the streets under the
guard of Mr.. Simmons. The men
worked two days for the city and one
day for the chief, and when they left
he gave them $3.50 each and filed
bill with the clerk for $500. The
bill was presented to- the council at
the Thursday night session and was
ordered paid. Just by what system
they prevailed on the chief to remit
portion of their fine and at the sane
time induce him to pay them $500 has
not as yet come to light. The chief
is no more nor perhaps as much to
blame as the council is in this matter.
But 1t shows the manner in which
some of the business of the city has
been handled.
Another matter which was talked
over In an informal way was the
granting of a building permit to DR..
Cue to erect a sheet iron building on
his lot near the end of the bridge OPP

there Is no building committee and

of sheet iron building in the fire linn
its. However, this permit may be
only a false report as there is no
record on the minutes to substantiate
the report. The council would not
surely consent to have an unsightly
building erected so near the city hall;
the two old frame buildings facing the
city hall are unsightly enough for all
purposes. There being no further
business the council closed in har-
mony. to meet on Monday. May Sd, at
