Directors Meet.

The directors of the Canyon county
fair association met in regular session
Tuesday night: The meeting was ra-
ther of consultation nature than that
of business, about all that was trans
acted was the letting of the contract
for printing the premium list, which
was awarded to the Caldwell News
N. s. Miller reported that the shade
trees had been planted on the grounds
and the grounds were ready for SOW
ing grass seed. Owing to the financial
condition of the treasury, it was found
that there was not sufficient funds
with which to pay for the trees, when
Henry Dorman came forward and
took 800 in stock of the association,
thus relieving the pressure very ma
terially. While Mr.. Dorman has been
called a CRATER and booster, the city
of Caldwell would like to have so or
60 more just like him.

ELECTION SHOULD
BE in March

Every two years when there is a
change in the administration it DEM
Onstrates that a mistake was made
when the city election was fixed for
the month of April. 1t is always about
the first of May before the new adj
ministration has things in shape for
looking after the streets and general
work OF the city, consequently there
is a month lost when street cleaning,
sprinkling and other work should
be going on. The report of all officers
are made quarterly on hte first of jan
uary, April, July, and October, and it
breaks in on this arrangement. The
former administration never take any
action toward street repairs because
they do not desire to let contracts for
the new administration to carry out
It would be much better II the election
could be held in March so the new Of
flcers would take hold on the first Of
April.-Idaho Falls Register.

time probably overshadows them all.
The largest understanding steam
vessel engaged on the coast makes
four round trips each month between
Coos Bay and San Francisco, with a
lumber cargo of 225,00O,O 900 feet each
trip. This vessel belongs to the G. A.
Smith Co., and is operated in connec-
ton with it's mills at Marshfield. This
mill, by the way, is the most complete
ly equipped plant of it's kind on the
coast. It's output is so large that many
smaller vessels are required to handle
it in addition to the larger one men
toned.
1t is claimed by those who are in a
position to know, that more lumber
leaves Coos Bay than leaves by way
of the Columbia River each year.
am not in a position, however, to veri-
fly this statement
Just now the most notable progress
being made at Coos Bay is in connec-
ton with the Improvement Of its har-
Dor. A newly constructed govern
ment suction dredge of large capacity
has been kept at work there the past
six months at an expense of about
100000, all of which has been provided
by the local people. There is now
available the, balance of an old appro-
priation left over from former jetty
work, which the government is going
to expend in continuing the work be-
gun and prosecuted with excellent re-
suits by the local people. There is
every assurance that this dredge will
remain at work in the Coos Bay har-
Dor for the next two years, deepening
the channel and cleaning out shoals
in preparation for a 40-foot channel
on the bar This latter, understand,
has been recommended by the govern
ment engineers in charge Of such
work on the Oregon coast, and encour-
agement is held out to US by men
having much to do with congressional
appropriations that money for this
work will be provided at an early ses-
sion of congress.

COMMERCIAL CLUB To GET
SIX THOUSAND OR BUST

A most encouraging meeting of the
Caldwell Commercial club was held
Monday evening. At the meeting sew
eral things were discussed. Among
them were money, advertising, G. A.
R. encampment, wooden mills, black
bass and more money. The meeting
was called to order by Vice President
Geo. H. Handy. After reading the min
utes of the last meeting by Assistant
Secretary Dew, DR.. w. c. Maxey stat
ed that he appeared before the club
in the interests of the state encamp-
ment of the G. A. R. and w. r. c.,
which will be held in Caldwell June
%, "a, and %. He stated that there
would be five or six hundred old SOL
diers in the city and half as many
members of the Womans' Relief corps.
The proper decoration of the city and
the entertainment of the guests neces-
STATED the raising of some omney;
and he expressed the hope that the
business men of Caldwell would do
nate literally toward such fund. His
remarks were we'll received, and I'M
doubtedly means will be amply pro-
vided for this occasion.
County Commissioner Vanderdossen
was present and stated that the board
was in receipt of a letter from the
United States Fish commission, ask
ing the commissioners to tell what
kind of fish were wanted in the Deer
Flat reservoir. Some irrepressible
wag suggested Nampa Suckers, but
black and pinto bass was decided
upon. Oh, no! it was not pinto it was.
Calico bass, we think. Anyhow, bass
of any old kind would do. 1t was so
ordered.

vertising in conjunction with Roise

The Canyon County Fair directors
held a meeting at the Office of the
Caldwell Forwarding company Tues
day evening, for the purpose of max
ing preparations for the fair this year
N. s. Miller reported that the shade
trees furnished by Mr.. Pittenger, of
Nampa, have been set out on the fair
grounds and that five acres of the
grounds are ready for seeding. The
directors ordered the seeding done,
blue grass and clover being used. In
view of the strict economy being prac-
ticed by the association, the Caldwell
Forwarding company very generously
offered to furnish the necessary seed
and their offer was thankfully ac-
cepted
The proposition of seeding an alfal~
ia palace, or grotto, was brought up
and discussed at some length The
suggestion was made by N. s. Miller,
who obtained the idea from similar
display seen at the Omaha exposition
last winter. 1t is thought that the
plan may be worked out, the idea be-
ing to furnish additional space for
showing grains and grasses as we'll as
to make a display of alfalfa, 1t being
conceded on all hands that the dis

the Alaska Yukon exposition, to be
held at Seattle. This brought forth a
lively discussion, participated in by
Messrs. Burroughs, Hannah, Place,
Plowhead, Maxey, Roadway, and Low
ell. The upshot of the matter was
that the club decided the first thing to
do was to raise fund in order that
the club could take up such matters
from time to time. A committee con-
sisting of Place, Plowhead, Hannah,
Redway, Davis, GIBSON, Burroughs,
and Holt, was appointed to raise such
a fund by popular subscription. The
amount to be raised is $4,000; and a
subscriber to this fund is guaranteed
immunity for the next ewtlve months.
Owing to the fact that the money is
needed; that this subscription will be
the last; and that great good is assur-
ed; everyone will undoubtedly Lber-
ally donate. The committee has since
divided the field into two parts.
Messrs. Place and Hannah are to
work among the farmers, and the
others are to work the town. The
leading firms started off on $500 per
month"; the next class at $4,000 and
so on down. Elsewhere in this issue
will be found an account of the pro-
gress of the committee.
At the meeting a communication
was read from an Eureka, California,
man, who wants to establish a wooden
mill at Caldwell. The communication
was referred to the committee on
manufactures, consisting OF Messrs.
Clark, Dorman, Andrews, Sebring,
and H. A. Grifiths.
Mr.. W. H. Clements application for
membership was received and favor
ably acted upon.
After v. D. Hannah's "reminiscences,
the club adjourned in high feather.

Mr.. Frank Woods, proprietor of the

Scott, were married at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs VIM. A.
Scott, ON Dearborn street, Caldwell,
Idaho, Thursday evening, April 10,
1909, at eight o'clock. The bride wore
beautiful dress OF cream crepe du
chine and the groom was dressed in
conventional black.
Miss Mabel Scott, sister of the bride,
was maid of honor, and Mr.. Richard
Beatty was best man. The bride car
ried brides roses and Miss Mabel
wore white china silk over pink and
carried white and pink carnations.
AS Miss Iva Scott, sister of the
bride, player Lohengrin's Wedding

places.

and groom were present and a good
number of lovely presents were given
to the happy couple, Rev. Francis E.

church, pronounced the words which
made them man and wife.

been done at Marshfleld and North
Bend during the past couple years.
These two towns, about three miles
apart, have population, with their
suburbs, of about 100000, Marshfield
being somewhat the larger.
Last year upwards of 100000 was
expended at Marshfield for hard sur
face pavements, and like amount for
grading and planking other streets. It
completed during the past winter, a
high school, modern in all respects,
at cost of even $4,000, and this,
with its usual commendable enter
prise, North Bend duplicated for its
own children and those of the new
Corners.
In February last the Chandler"
five-story hotel, was completed and
opened to the public with an elaborate
reception. This hostelry, counter
part in size and equipment of the
Cornelius" at Portland, has service
and cuisine which compare favorably
with the best hotels in the latter city.
And, mind you, every thing about the
Chandler" represents local capital
and local enterprise and is suggestive
of the spirit of confidence that per-
vades the minds of everyone who be-
comes interested in that section.
Marshfield has many other two and
three-story structures of brick and
concrete that would be creditable to
city of $4,000 people. 1t has three
prosperous banking institutions, and
North Bend has two, capable of car
ing for the needs of local business.
In the vicinity of the Bay there are
about 500 people employed in produc-
ing coal and three vessels carry the
product to Portland and San Francis
co. There are many other industries
giving employment to labor and capt.
