Here's to our editor, tall and serene
A quite madest smile and eyes of
see" green.
Our managing editor, sure is a
peach
With a head of gray hair and a
nose like a screach,
While perched at his desk with tab
and ink
He writes up the news over which
he must think.
Yes, it takes lots 90 of brains and
an experienced hand
To put down on paper the news of
the land.
He's a good natured bachelor and
knows how to smile
Especially when she" comes his
time to beguile.
So here's to our editor, long may
he live
In quiet old Caldwell, his wisdom to
give
Through his paper to all of us, we
need it so
Yes, he's a good fellow you'll like
him | know.

TRIBUNE CONTEST GETS
MORE INTERESTING
DAY BY DAY

Now listen There is absolutely
no truth in the statement that this
is the closed season for hunting sub
scriptions to The Tribune The law
(made by The Tribune) permits live
active, aggressive contestants to hunt
subscriptions until the close of the
contest and there is a bounty on
them too. For every new subscrip-
ton brought in, bounty Of 600 votes
in The Tribune's Popular Voting Con-
test is paid. Some happy young
lady is going to march away from
The Tribune office in just a short
time wearing the smile that won't
come off, because that young lady
will have won the grand Obermeyer
& Sons piano. There are only few
more days left of this contest.
That means that the race still be-
longs to anybody who has just lit
tie initiative. The fact of the mat
ter is that no one yet has such a
start that ii could not be easily over

joyed a ten days outing in camp on
Tripod above Smiths Ferry. They

berg, Ross Leighty, David Lesley,
George Hoffman, Dean Holt, Jack
Watkins, Sherman Breshears, William
Conway, with Robert Clemens as
leader, walked from Smiths Ferry tn
Montour a distance of as miles in l4H
hours walking time. There they met
Mr.. Case on the train with three
younger boys, Ralph Gowen, Will
Garten and Jim Watkins and together
they came on home, with many happy
memories but most of them quite
willing to set down to mother
muh' once more.
They built their own shelter houses
made their own rules, washed their
own dishes and cooked their own
food, shooting or catching a good
deal of that Their camp was run as
nearly as amatuer cooking would al
low on schedule time from reveille at
600 a. m. to taps at 900 p. m.
All have now passed their tender
foot examinations and are looking
forward to being second-class Scouts
by Xmas of this year
By that time they hope that each
church will have one or more patrols
and that next year larger and longer
camp may be held.

SAD CASE OF MISTAKEN
IDENTITY IS MADE
Continued from first pape.)

Clarence Van Deusen and that it owes
an apology to somebody-Mr. Van
Duyn, we think.
The Register says:
only in one instance so far in Ida
no during the present campaign has
the issue of the corruption of the pub
lie press been brought up by a candi-
date for Office. The Republican press
of the state has been assailed by one
Van Duyn, progressive candidate for
state auditor, who in a speech deferred
recently made a broad and sweeping
assertion and statement to the effect
that the Republican newspapers oil
Idaho were either subsidized, or were
SO under the control of the Republi-
state house ring and rule that they
dare not speak out and tell the truth
and by their failure so to do were fail
ing in their duty to the people of the
state, who have the right to look to
the press of the state for their source
of information.
If memory serves one right, the man
Van Duyn who makes the sweeping
statement, was at one time a member
of the Republican state house ring,
which he so openly and broadly ac-
NNSS~SJ IA hAlS NdPaNAby vi aSSlSldIll d.
torney general position surely which
placed him where he would have op-
portunity to know of the inside work.
ings of the ring he now accuses.
The Republicans of the state, when
Van Duyn was candidate for Office,
decided on better man. Can that
have anything to do with the present
state of mind of Mr.. Van Duyn? Like
n nuff1hnr IS nfha~n h. IL
makes the broad and sweeping asser-
ton and statement was we'll satisfied
with the party which honored him
just so long as he was honored. There
was no accusation on his part then
of corruption of the party rress from
which he sought favor and was given
publicity far beyon his due.
Failing of election, he deserts the
party which honored him and which
he sought to serve, and joins the ranks
OF the progressive party, which he had
perfect right to do, but the average
man will fail to understand just when
] the state house ring became so cor
rupt that Mr.. Van Duyn would have
none of it. The average man will
also ask Mr.. Van Duyn, when was
the press of the state corrupted? Was
it since he failed of election?
The statement made by the speaker
is very general, very unjust, very I'M
called for and very absurd, and makes
the speaker ridiculous in the eyes oil
the people of the state. With so much
corruption in high places, and with
the opportunity the gentleman has
had and has now, can he not particu-
larize and point an accusing finger at
the guilty man, and in that way do his
state real service? Can he not single
out some one paper of the state
which favors the eRpublican party, as
being corrupt, bought and subsidized
