DEATH OF VAN"

Van" we'll known character, who
for ten years has worked as a black
smith for the Marsh & Ireton ranch,
and who during the past few months
has made his home at Indian Jake's
ranch on the north end OF Squaw
Butte, died last Friday morning and
was buried Sunday at the expense of
the county,
Vans real name is unknown, and it
is stated that he worked for ten years
for Dr. Plat without a pay day, A
few days ago he told Indian Jake he
would be % years old the first OF
April and that he had a daughter in
Michigan, but refused to divulge his
real name. The only thing in refer
ence to his past history ever told In
dian Jake was, to the effect that he

Basketball.

Six Nampa school boys, one of them
posing as referee, defeated the Cald-
we'll boys Friday night in what was to-
have been basketball game The fivel
Nampa boys using the basketball wereI
very inferior players, but the one us
ing the whistle was not dlsmayed by al
little thing like that He proceeded to-
turn all kinds of fouls loose on the
Caldwell bunch, and one of the NampaI
boys threw the baskets.
In the last half, the Caldwell boys
were holding their own despite the kid
with the whistle, but he was equal to
the occasion. When Maxwell threw a
field goal making the score q to 81 he
promptly said that the play was made
after time was up. When the home
team protested the decision, he came
back with the ruling that the ball
never entered the basket. AS the mat
ter now stands. Nampa claims the game
by a score of q to 10; while Caldwell
has protested the game on both rulings
and on the score of the referee being q
member of contesting school.
In the girls game, the Nampa boy
tried the same game, but the Caldwell
girls had the Nampa girls so complete,
ly outclassed that the score was q
to in favor of Caldwell.
Right here it might be well to men
ton the fact that the Caldwell girls
came out of the season with seconC
honors. Boise girls are first witt
Caldwell girls a close second. In tn,
five league games, Caldwell girls mad,
fifty points more than was mad
against them.
Emmett boys, first; Payette boys
second; Boise boys, third.

call. In talking over current events
he said:
THE direct election of United State
senators by the people is now occu
plying considerable attention. | am
heartily in favor of the plan but | am
fearful that the resolution will not
pass the senate. There are TOO MANY

to vote on them. l am hopeful tina
It will not be many years ere this re-
form can be accomplished. | havd
great respect for Senators HeyburrI
and Borah, but think the former ought
to change his opinion on public
questions every fifty or sixty years
providing of course, that the condi1
tions change. Senator Hepburn is
too well ''sot' in his ways for the
good Of himself or the state. l do
not believe in hasty or ill-considered
changes in government In fact, /
am rather conservative, myself. Some
times conservatism degenerates into
bourbonism. 1t has in the case OF
Senator Hepburn.
Senator Borah is a man after my
own heart, and don't you forget it. He
keeps apace with the times. He is
honestly trying to look out for the in
terests of the people | admire his
ability and respect his honesty of pur-
pose"
Mr.. Blessenger has not been in the
best of health for several years past
About seven years ago he was in
jured in this city in boarding train
and has never fully recovered from
his injuries. Every winter he has 4
period of illness He informs us thai
three times now the doctors have
said there was no hope for him, bu
he always pulled through.
Mr.. Blessenger is 70 years of ag,
and is one of the pioneers of Idaho
He has fine farm between Caldwell
and Boise For several years he en-
gagged in the sheep business.

F. W. Sheffield, the Spokane CAPT
talist and power plant builder was in
Caldwell Tuesday for the purpose of
comforting with the officers Of the
Gem Irrigation District We learn
from Mr. Sheffield that he has fin
anced the proposition to build pow
er plant at Box Springs for the recla-
nation of this immense tract by pump
ing, The people of the Gem district
will hold an election Saturday for the
purpose of authorizing the board of
directors to issue bonds for the pay
ment of the power plant pumps, trans
mission lines, etc. Mr. Sheffield pro-
poses to build the plant and install
the pumps and take the bonds of the
district in payment. The contrac
the district has entered into calls for
the delivery of 1000 horsepower at
point in the district, or rather for a
plant that will generate such power.
The present district comprises about
10000 acres which includes the lands
of the Patch COOPERATIVE Ditch COM
pany. At a recent meeting arrange
ments were made whereby this tract
of land will be included in the Gem
district, the land owners being al
lowed one-half credit on water right
In other words, they are allowed a
full water supply at one-half the cost
of the full water right. This plan is
agreeable to all concerned.
1t is understood that Mr.. Sheffield
has interested Boston bond buyers in
the project They have the money
to finance the proposition and have
informed Mr. Sheffield that they are
ready. He states that the work will
be undertaken at once. The construc-
ton of the plant at Box Springs will
be commenced as soon as weather
conditions will permit The entire
work will be rushed to completion so
that water may be had this fall.
The success of this project is now
assured. Great credit is due the Of
fcers of the district. Messrs. Chas,
McCoard, c. S. Faurot and Charles
E. Tabor have been very active in pro
noting this enterprise. Indeed, upon
these three gentlemen has fallen the
burden of promoting the project

ceaselessly. Success has finally
crowned their efforts. 1t will be good
