DuRUM WHEAT GROWERS.

The growers of durum wheat in
North Dakota have magnificent op-
portunity at this time to boost. their
favorite crop. Present wheat prices
are Unexpectedly high. The indications
are that high price will be received
for wheat this fall--even with 2 big
crop in the spring wheat belt The price
will be much larger If the crop is small.
With advanced prices for the other
varieties of wheat-durum will natural
ly attract greater attention than under
ordinary conditions. 1t will be more
in the limelight than ever beforehand
1t will be a much less dificult task to
interest consumers now than at any
other period since 1t became a factor
in the northwest.
If the Durum Wheat association, or
ganized some years ago, can be regal
vanized and gingered up--great results
can be obtained.
The meeting OF the American Society
of Equity here June 9 and 10 offers
an exceptional opportunity for the per-
fection of some plan to popularize this
grain. A levy of one-tenth of a mill
on every bushel grown by members of
the association will create a splendid
fund through which this grain can be
INSTRUMENTATION of its -four
made-and an educational campaign
for its use inaugurated.
If the plan should succeed It would
be an easy task later to make Durum
day in this state similar to the Raisin
day so successfully pulled off in Cali
fornia by enterprising citizens of
Fresno.
The growers of grain have the means
at their command to make their wheat
popular. will they arise to the occa-
sion and--do things?

PASSES AWAY

ers of Owyhee county, passed to the
great beyond at the Pacific hotel We'd
nesday about midnight. The deceased
came to Silver City in the early days
of that camp and was at one time
quite wealthy, but met with some re-
verses, but it is said that he still had
some funds at the time of his death,
having disposed of his property about
two years ago. He was considered a
hard working, honest German; his
home for many years has been near
South Mountain. The immediate cause
of his death was pneumonia. It is I'M
derstood that he has two or three
brothers who reside at Rock Island,
Ill. The remains will be held at the
undertaking parlors Of Plat &Steetle

completed. Interment will be had In

Burnley GIVES HIS REASON
POSITION TOWARD PROJECT

of citizenship. What rights the gov
eminent has are conferred by the con-
stitution. A foreigner cannot come
here and take up land. No citizen can
confer upon the foreigner a right
which the law does not give him. Now,
we claim that the private citizens who
are to be benefited by the reclamation
project which the government has on
in Idaho cannot confer upon the gov
eminent the right to bring condemna-
ton proceedings against Mr.. Burnley,
because such privilege would be
placing those citizens ahead of the law
In letting them give the government a
privilege which the constitution of
the United States does not confer.
Il want to state that Mr.. Burley does
not desire to interfere with the great
reclamation work that is going on. He
Is most heartily in sympathy with
every move that will help build up
and settle the country, but this point
is an important one to settle. 1t means
a great deal more than most persons
imagine, but it will not mean the
abandonment of the project or any
part of 1t. 1t will mean that before the
case is finished the government Will
pay the $40 an acre awarded by the
jury last Saturday, and that the per-
sons who are taking the water from
the government for their private lands
will get together and make up an adj
ditional amount per acre to satisfy the
just claims of Mr.. Burley for the loss
of his lands"

When the College of Idaho wanted to
raise $4,000, Governs name was on
the list. When Canyon county was
threatened with division and funds
were necessary, Gowen was one of
the bunch to contribute, and he not
only gave his money, but his time as
well. When the local option bill was
in the balance Gowen was one of the
men who answered Representative
Thompson's call for help in order that
the pledges of the party might be re-
deemed. These are but a few of the
numerous instances in which the name
of Gowen appears in the interest Of
the public. The Tribune most heartily
endorses the entire ticket and plat
form, because they represent the best
interests of our growing city. The
Tribune believes that If the Taxpayers
ticket is elected that Caldwell will be
in safe and conservative hands who
will see that the funds of the city
are not frittered away without getting
value received. The record of the
present administration is yet fresh in
the memories of our citizens and it is
not necessary to refer to it at this
time. The platform of the two tick
cts is practically the same, in SO far
as the saloon question is concerned
there is not particle Of difference in
the two planks. The only difference
in the two tickets is the personality
of the candidates.

A wide spread amherst among per-
sons connected with irrigation pro-
jects all through the west is conferred
in the outcome Of federal court pro-
ceedings now in progress in Boise, Ida.
in which d. q. Burley, general passen-
ger agent of the Oregon Short Line,
through Attorney J. G. Willis of that
road, has raised an entirely new ques-
ton concerning the reclamation act
question which is of vital import
ance In connection with all the large
government reclamation projects now
under way and contemplated. 1t is
claimed by Mr.. Willis that the govern
ment Is powerless to condemn any
lands for irrigation projects when
such projects contemplate the supply
of water to private lands, not part
of the public domain.
The issue was reached when United
States Attorney Lingenfelter at Boise
began condemnation proceedings
against tract of land aggregating 800
acres owned by Mr.. Burley few
miles west of Nampa, which land
would come within the boundaries of
the site of large reservoir to be
built for a part of the famous Payette-
Boise project, The government offer
ed to buy the land of Mr.. Burnley, Oft
fering him SIS an acre. This price was
refused Mr.. Burley stating the land
has cost him In excess of $S5 an acre,
It was then the condemnation proceed
ings we're instituted.
Mr.. Willis will contend in this case
that the government has the right to
engage in reclamation proceedings to
benefit It's own lands and that 1t has
the right to bring condemnation pro-
ceedings when the object is to benefit
its holdings, but that 1t is power
les to condemn the lands of one citi-
zen TO benefit the lands of another, He
will argue that the government is un-
able under the laws to establish its
right in the present case to bring the
condemnation proceedings.
In speaking in the Salt Lake Herald
on the proceedings, Mr.. J. G. Willis
the attorney for Mr.. Burley, says:
In many things" said Mr., Willis
Citizens have rights beyond what the
government has. Individuals have
rights which belong to them by virtue

nomical administration.
2. We favor the business of the
city being conducted on cash basis
as near as conditions will warrant,
thereby tightening the burdens of

3. We believe that the glory and
greatness of any city depends large
ly upon the reduction OF the drink
evil" and prostitution to the mini
mum, and, therefore pledge our
councilmen not to renew the now
existing saloon licenses in the city
of Caldwell or grant any new ones.

Vancement.

of substantial and permanent nature.
6. We favor the irrigation OF the

Following the reading of the plat
form, nominations for mayor were cal
led for. Judge Wallace placed c. G.
Smith in nomination and DR.. Hamil-
ton seconded the nomination. The
chairman promptly stated that If there
were no other nominations, the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Smith would be made
unanimous, which 1t was. G. ]. Shorb
and Ralph Beal were both after the
Office of clerk, but Beal hardly realized
that he was In the race. That was par
TALLY owing to the fact that he was
not in the administration deal. The
vote stood "a for ShOrb and 80 for
Beal. The nomination for treasurer
was next in order. -Four candidates
were named but two of them being
present, declined the other two being
absent, were unable to decline. Mrs.
w. B. Wilson was nominated. The
next contest was over the nomination
for city engineer. H. s. Williams and
Fred Mcconnell were the two con-
testants, but Williams shared the fate
of Beal by about the same vote. One
man, who has had some experience in
politics, was heard to remark that the
Smith machine was the most perfect
he ever came up against.
Following the above nominations,
the convention separated to their diff
ferent wards, where the following
nominations for councilmen were
made: first ward, W. R. Wilkerson
and Robert Farrar; second ward, R.
w. Cakes and C. @. Adams; third
ward, VIM. Cupp and A. N. Conover.
This finished the business of the con-
vention.
The ticket on the whole is satisfac-
tory. The councilmen are all, with
one exception, business men and If
elected will doubtless give Caldwell a
safe, economical administration, pro-
viding that they are consulted in the
matter of appointments.
