Fire Pug At Work.

One of the most dastardly acts that
has been perpetrated in this country
was the setting fire to the Azcuenaga
home on Trout creek on Friday night
at about IS minutes past nine o'clock.
The family residing on the ranch
had Just retired when the kitchen was
entered and large amount of coal
oil or gasoline was thrown about the
room and ignited. A young lady and
two young men who were in the
rooms on the upper hoor barely es-
capped in their night clothes and
nothing whatever was saved from the
building. The entire structure was
soon a mass OF flames and It was i'm
possible to check the FIRE in any way
after il was discovered The fruit
and shade trees near the house were
destroyed
At the time the wind was blowing
with considerable force down the
creek and they were able TO save the
buildings across the road
We understand that considerable
evidence has been secured showing
conclusively that II was deliberately
set on fire, and that there Is but little
doubt who did the act,--Jordan Val
lev Express.

CALDWELL WILL HAVE BRASS

Open Air Concerts This Summer
Home Boys Compose the Organi-
zation-Prof. Gordon Elected Di-
rector For the Year.
Caldwell will have 4 brass band this

pie have every assurance that the

making their home in Caldwell.
Prof. A. T. Gordon, one of the best
and most succ: ssful band directors
in the west, has beea made LEADER for
the coming year. Mr.. Swain Beatty
has been elected manager of the

servative man and will handle the

concerned. Mr.. Roy Harterhov'er
was elec-ed treasurer Of the orGaH;-
zation.
This week steps were tai en- to
raise mon.v for the su?? - cl &c
band. Fifteen hundred dollars were
asked and the amount was raised in
few hours. The band this year will
be entirely separate and distinct
from the Commercial club or Publici-
ty committee 1t will raise
| and disburse its own money. 1t is
proposed to give open-air concerts
on the streets during the months of
May, June, July, August, September
and October, each Friday evening.
The band is made up of the fol-
lowing gentlemen: A. T. Gordon, En-
nest Furgeson, Swain Beatty and VIM
Steele, cornet; Joe Kahn and Frank
Holgate, saxaphone; Claire Sewer
and Carl Johnson, trombone; Harley
King, baratone; N. c. Gordon, bass
R. B. Hartenbower and Walter Neil
ly, melophone; Gabe Broiller, Claud
Williamson and E. A. Wenstrom

In speaking with the members o.
the band we learn that the band this
year will be better than ever before
All the old musicians who made
Caldwell famous as a brass banc
town, are in the harness this year. II
addition there are a few new ones
| At present there are II members Blu
the number will be increased to II

CREAMERY BUSINESS IS I'M
PORTANT,

Manager Clough of the Hazelwood
Creamery informs us that his COM
pany will distribute about $175,00000
among the farmers around Caldwell
this year. Since the creamery has
been in operation the company has
paid out about that much to the far
mers. Mr. Clough says that there is
no danger of Cutting the market
His company, alone, could use the
product of 100000 more cows than
there are in the territory reached by
the Hardwood branches. At pres
ent they ship in butter from Iowa
Wisconsin and other states. This is
the ideal dairy country and the in,
dustry is growing rapidly.

, Now to Control the Owyhee Pro-
ject.
1t is reported that the Kuhn inter
ests of Pittsburg, Pa, have acquired
the old BoiseOwyhee irrigation pro-
ject. This project comprises some
of the finest agricultural and fruit
land in southern Idaho and eastern
Oregon, and it is to be hoped that
there is some foundation to the re-
port, as it is generally known to the
people of this section that when the
Kuhns undertake a proposition of
this character success is assured
With the extension of the Oregon
Short Line over the Golden Gate
route to Jordan Valley, the country
through which it will pass is taking
on new life as actual construction
work will soon begin and a large
amount of money put in circulation
for labor and supplies. The building
of the dams for the reservoirs ior
the Jordan Valley irrigation project
and for the Owyhee project will
necessitate the transportation oil
many tons of material.-Jordan Val

The Rnmors Are Still AflOat.

The rumors are still afloat that the
present city council propose granting
the Sebree electric light and power
franchise before turning over the af-
fairs of the city to their successors,
We can hardly believe that there are
grounds for the rumor but 1t will not
down. The Tribune cannot conceive
Of men high in the community like
Messrs. Gowen, Clark. DeVers, Harris,
Paynter, Garten and Farrar doing any
such thing. This problem is clearly
up to the next administration. It Is
not rightfully within the providence OF
the present council. That body of men
will hear something drop II they at
tempt any such action, The people OF
Caldwell are In no mood for slippery
dealing at this time, As stated above
Tho Tribune thinks that the city ad-
ministration will attempt no such thing
at this time. The members of the ad-
mlnistratIon have to much at stake.
