deer FLAT CELEBRATION
occurs JUNE THIRD

The Commercial Club decided at
the meeting held Tuesday night that
Caldwell and the surrounding country
would celebrate the opening of the
gates at the reservoir on Thursday,
June Sd. A committee consisting of
j. S. Harrington, Elmer Clark, James
Harris, T. S. jackson, j. H. Lowell,
Fred Richardson, D. D. Campbell, H.
w. Dorman and S. D. Simpson, was
appointed to take charge of the entire
affair and there is no dobt about it be-
ing brought to successful issue.
The necessary funds are at hand
and as Chairman Harrington stated
neither trouble or money would be
spared to make the celebration one of
the biggest ever held in Boise Valley.
The committee is already outlining
their plans. One of the principal fea-
lures will be barbecue cattle, hogs
and sheep will be sacrificed for the
occasion. 1t is planned to have a
table set the entire length of block,
speeches, fireworks and other amuse-
ments will go to help make the day
long to be remembered. Secretary
Wickersham, of the Interior Depart
ment, has been invited and if con-

to the county to be used by the super
intendent. The washing for the in
mates is to be done by Mckinney. The
water assessment is to be paid by
the county. The farm is to be farmed
in a wOrkmanlike manner, laterals
and fences to be kept in good condi-
ton.
The petition of 2. N. Mccall that a
road be opened was granted. The pc
tition of John Nelson and others for
herd district will be acted upon
July 20. Wilson Lesser was appointed
justice of the peace for South Cald-
well precinct.
The session has caused the board
more time with smaller results than
any session they have held thus far
during their term. This was caused
largely from the fact that they had to
listen to the talks made by agents
for Jail furniture, agents who wanted
to sell material for metal culverts
with a 25-year guarantee, but the
proposition which Jared their nerves
more than any other was the request
of Assessor Crowther, who asked for
more assistance for his Office than the
board thought he should have. The
commissioners state that they have
granted the assessor one Office deputy
for six months, four field deputies for
so days each, one clerk for so days
during the time the tax receipts are
being made out. The contention of
the board is that now the assessor
is getting $4,000 salary and If he needs
an office deputy for more than six
months he should pay the salary out
of that amount. Mr.. Clowther claims
that the business of the Office demands
all the extra help he has applied for,
that it is not possible for MIN to
assist continually in the Office, but
that he should be free to go out over
the county when required and that the

Wireless for Lights,

OMAHA.-Lighting by electrici
ty without the use of wires
was successfully accomplished by
DR.. Frederick H. Milliner at
the Omaha Exposition now in pro-
gress at the Omaha Auditorium. The
doctor is with the Union Pacific as ex-
perimental electrician, and is working
on cab wireless signal for the con-
troll Of trains. This is to be worked in
connection with the block signal sys-
tenn.
One year ago, in the Union Pacific
shops in Omaha, DR.. Milliner con-
structed an electric truck to travel
about the yards by wireless. This
truck is started by wirelesse and goes
four speeds ahead and four speeds
back without any power other than
the wireless. By an apparatus some
what similar to that used with the
truck, the switch at the Omaha Audi
torium is opened and closed.
The lighting of the Auditorium is
something that is beyond the power OF
any person to explain. Through the
courtesy of Colonel Glassford at Fort
Omaha, the wireless apparatus there
is put in operation. then at the Audi
forum, six miles away, by an instru-
ment constructed by DR.. Milliner, the
electric waves are gathered, brought
into the Auditorium, where, after the
electric power from the lighting plant
has been cut, they pass to the switch
board and out over the wires and
through the hundreds of lamps. This
wireless power can be thrown on or
of simply by pushing a button in the
little machine constructed by the doc
tOp

FARMERS KICK
AT COUNCIL

A number of the farmers of Road
District No. 40 are somewhat incensed
at the board of county commissioners
and the city council of Caldwell. 1t
seems that the residents of the road
district decided upon making some
improvements in their roads and rails
ed $4,000 by public subscription for
that purpose. The board of commits
sioners were appealed to for the loan
of one Of the county's graders. The
commissioners refused to let them have
a grader; and then the city officials
were appealed to. Some one promised
them the grader, and Mr.. Sam Vas
sar, the road oyerseer of that district
made some necessary repairs on the
city machine, with the understanding
that he could use it. Now the council
refuses the use of it's grader. The re-
suit is the work already done will be
lost and two of the principal roads
leading to Caldwell will remain out
of repair. To The Tribune 1t looks
as though the city officials were acting
foolishly. The city cannot use its
grader at present, and the farmers can
not injure it. A good portion of the
work to be done is within the city
limits, and yet the city will not per-
init the use of its tools. The commits
sioners have five or six graders and
yet one cannot be used at Caldwell.
The city has one which it is carefully
preserving.

GETS The Cash
FROM PEARSON

About two weeks ago Miss Julia
Finney left for Chicago for the pur-
pose of conveying the news and Gre
dentials to DR.. D. X. Pearsons that
his condition on giving $4,000 to the
College of Idaho had been met. Miss
Finney found the doctor in most ex-
cellent health, considering his 80
years. She said that to have seen him
when she informed him that his con-
dition had been met, anyone would
have thought that she was going to
give him $4,000 instead of he being
the giver. DR.. Pearsons stated that
the College of Idaho was the first of
a number of colleges that had met his
conditions. The funds are now in
Caldwell ready for the use of the in
stitution.

TAKE CARE OF
THE WATER

The Nampa Leader-Herald hits the
nail on the head when it makes the
following appeal. aldwell is up
against the same proposition. The
Tribune has had occasion to call the
attention of the authorities to the
water nuisance, but as yet no plan mas
been worked out which will abate
the nuisance.
'Nampa is city of many beautiful,
well-kept lawns and these places Of
fer The greatest attractions to invest
ors as well as affording the people of
Nampa a source of pride. OF course it
takes water to keep these lawns in
good condition and while procuring
this water for irrigating there are
some SO careless as to overflow the
bitches and food the streets.
And at this stage of the trouble the
street commissioner gets busy. Com
plants are entered against the mud in
the streets caused by these overflows
and when he investigates he is always
able to find where the water gets out
of the ditch, but no one ever comes
to the front with a confession of care
lessness. If the people themselves
will not remedy this trouble, the city
officers will have to provide either a
remedy or a penalty, and this means
more trouble.
1T is hoped that the same COM
mendable pride that is going to make
Nampa city of beautiful homes will
also aid in stopping the overflow Of
the irrigating bitches, which results
in mud holes in the streets. And be-
sides, any person found guilty of this
offense is liable to a fine of $25."
