ally accepted maps, from King Charles

power. The plot is frustrated by AL
icia daughter of the king, who is
found by him in the forest after she
has grown to wOmanhood The strong
est scene in the play is in Act III in
the bar-room of the Golden Lion, where
Alicia. disguised as a page learns all
the details of the plot against the king
and compels her lover, who is one of
the plotters, at the point of the sword
to let her pass from the tavern after
over.

tons. We believe that we can truth
fully say that this is the first time
in the history of Caldwell that every
member of the administration is work
ing earnestly. energetically and har-
moniously for the welfare of Caldwell
The men are all vitality interested iD
the permanent and substantial growth
OF this city. They know that upon
them rests grave responsibilities.
They realize that much must be done
during the next two years. They have
started to work to accomplish that.
The Tribune thinks they will succeed.
We have full confidence in the Gowen
administration, and no fear of en-
gendering eminity by any suggestion
or criticism we may see fit to offer.
That's where we stand.

All Aboard.

Now that Governor Brady has again
publicly declared himself as in line
with the local option forces, there is
general scramble among the poll
ticians to Chamber aboard of the wa
ter wagon. All it requires to line this
class of people up on any one ques-
ton is leader, or else the knowledge
that the majority of the people are in
earnest in their demands for a reform.
That is what the politician of Idaho
now sees. He recognizes the fact that
the state will soon be in the hands of
the local option sympathizers, and if
he expects to hold office in the future
he must follow the crowd. In another
year or SO it will be hard to find a
genuine politician in the Gem state
who. was ever in favor of the saloons
ever existing or that would dare to
hint that they should be returned

SOME SATISFACTION.

A newspaper is entitled to few sat
isfactions and never gets more than it
is entitled to- About the only real
satisfaction it ever gets is to have
time and men to vindicate the sound
ness of it's judgment and opinions. The
Tribune feels that time and men high
in office have indicated its position
on the forest reserve question and the
government reclamation of arid land.
Secretary Ballinger has certainly
done both. He has put stop to many
of the fads of Chief Forester Pinchot;
made him stay within the law; and de-
vote his time and energy to the real
On the matter of government reclama-
ton he holds that the government
should not needlessly interfere with
private capital; that the government
should supplement the work of private
capitalists in reclaming arid land. In
other words the government should
interfere no more than necessity die
tates. In his address at Spokane Sec
rotary Ballinger said:
While the government has invested
over $50,000,000 in irrigation works,
many times that amount has been in
vested since the passage of the rec
lamation act by private enterprise and
it is safe to say that a large portion
of these private investments have re-
suited from governmental example
and encouragement; and let me say
here that it has not been and is not
the policy of the national government
in the administration of this act to
hinder or interfere with the invest
ment of private capital in the con-
struction of irrigation works, but
rather to lend 1T encouragement.
This is particularly true in ref
erence to irrigation under the Carey
act in the various states. l am not a
believer in the government entering
into competition with legitimate pri-
vate enterprises. Its functions under
the reclamation act are not of this
character; and l am sure that when
private enterprise has done what it
can there will still be hundreds of
thousands of acres of public land rec
lamable only by government aid. The
western states should therefore be
very jealous of the pereptuity of the
reclamation fund and of it's constant
increase.
The above statement Is the ouin-
ion and policy of man big enough
and broad enough to fill the position
he occupies.

CLUBS MUST GO.

The fight against clubs organized
and maintained for the purpose of
selling liquor, is on in earnest. The
fight is on in both Ada and Washing
ton counties. The Tribune is convinced
that the courts will knock out the
club. 1t is notorious that the sole
purpose of these clubs is to circum-
vent the law. The initiation fee of
the club is usually a dollar or some
nominal sum. For this dollar a per-
son enjoys the privilege of patronizing
the club bar and that Is all there is to
it. We could never understand why
such organizations should be permitted
to do business without a license. We
cannot see how they are any better
than a saloon.

SEATOR BORAH RETURNS.

Senator W. E. Borah has returned
from Washington, d. c., and according
to the interview published elsewhere
in this issue of The Tribune, will re-
main in Idaho for some time acquaint-
ing himself with conditions in the
state The senator can do the state Of
Idaho a great good by thoroughly in
vestigating forest reserve and recla-
nation conditions. In the special
session of congress, Idaho's junior
senator took very prominent part.
He Is recognized as one of the ablest
men in the senate, and will occupy a
prominent place in congress during the
next few years. AS his ability be-
comes better known and his reputation
becomes more secure, he will easily
rank among the great leaders of the
senate

WHERE WE STAND.

THE Tribune wanted the Gowen
ticket elected, and now that it is elect
ed, it is continually looking for some
thing to find fault with. 1t seems the
editor of Tribune cannot sleep we'll
unless he can pick at somebody or
something. | would advise The Tri-
bune to either stand by the Gowen adj
ministration or repudiate it. Mr..
Gowen and his associates will not take
kindly to continual fault finding on
the part of The Tribune. If it values
its friends the paper had better stand
square"
The foregoing is an extract from a
letter addressed to The Tribune. In
reply to the sentiments expressed
therein, The Tribune pleads guilty to
all the charges. Since the Inaugural
ton of Mayor Gowen and the present
city council The Tribune has diligent-
ly sought to find cause for complaint.
We are pleased to state that to date
we have signally failed. There has
been SO little fault to find that it ac-
tually gives us pain. The Tribune
advocated the election of Mayor
GOwen and his associates ON that
ticket. The people of Caldwell were
pleased to do so, and The Tribune Is
| convinced that to date they have no
cause for regret. That we should keep
close eye on this administration is
natural. We have confidence in the
present city officials and are not afraid
to invetigate every transaction of its
mayor and council, and then give full
publicity to our Investigations. 1t is
altogether possible that Mr.. Gowen
may make a mistake, but he is the
kind of a man who would not thank
his friends for failing to call attention
to errors or oVersights on his part
The members of the council are built
the same way. Our friend may rest
assured that we value our friends and
are in no danger of losing them by can
aid criticism or honest suggestions
They do not demand and do not ex-
| pect servile toadyism on our part. They
would not get if they did. The Tri-
bune numbers among it's warmest
friends some whom we have severely
criticised, and some who have criti-
cised the paper in the same manner
Sensible men sometimes disagree
without losing the friendship or re-
spect of each other.
At this time we may say that Mavor
Gowen and Councilmen Clark, Gartin,
GIBSON, Paynter, Devers and Steun-
enberg are giving the people of Cald-
well good, business-like administra-
ton. They know that much is ex-
pected of them by their friends and
they are not failing of those expecta-

which he sustained a broken leg.

fifty miles an hour, and the iron was

Mr.. Lynch's leg just above the ankle,
and the fracture is considered by the
physicians to be bad one.
He was brought to Nampa on his

in its highest state of perfection the
rock from which such road is formed
must be so suited to the character and
volume Of traffic which passes over it
that the amount Of dust formed will
be only sufficient to replace that which
is taken away by wind and rain.
Automobiles came and the troubles
of the engineers began. The motor
car did none of the helpful things
that an iron tired wagon does. Pro-
ceeding as they usually do at high
rate of speed they lift the dust bind
ing surface and send it swirling
away, while the soft rubber tires
crush no rock to supply that which
they strip from the highways.
Much stress has been laid upon the
effect Of the car body and its shape in
lifting dust from the road surface.
Some experiments seem to furnish
convincing proof that but little dust
is taken from the roads by this
means, though the dust lifted by the
wheels is greatly accelerated by the
action of the car body and the air
currents set up in its rear. This
must be considered an important fac
tor, as much of the dust lifted by the
wheels would not be carried from the
road but for the air currents devel-
oped by it's shape.-From "To SAGE
