The Boston News Bureau says that
at the sugar mills of the Nipe Bay
company in Cuba more bagasse or
refuse is being developed from the
cane than is needed for fuel and that
the surplus is being made into paper.
1t says that this paper Is Of a "splen-
did grade" selling at high figures
and good profit. This possibility has
been discussed often and sugar cane
is not the only product considered
capable of such use. Over In the
Philippines one Of the difficulties OF
agriculture is the rapidly with which
the cogon grass springs up and occu-
pies the soil. Many experiments have
been made with this fibrous substance
in the way of papermaking and good
prospects have been reported. II

crop, self-sowed, which ripens In a few
months, as against the spruce, which,

WELL KNOWN IDAHO
PIONEER PASSES AWAY

A. B. Moss, pioneer, banker and
merchant of Payette, died at hos
pital at Boise, Saturday night. Death
resulted from typhoid fever. Mr..
Moss had not been we'll for some time
having suffered severe attack of
rheumatism. He was taken to Boise
Tuesday of last week.
Mr.. Moss was one of the best
known men in the state. He was the
Republican candidate for governor in
1898 and has occupied many positions
OF honor and responsibility. He has
been member of the board Of trus-
tees of the Blackfoot asylum for the
insane for 4 number of years. He

LOCAL. DEMOCRATS
WILL OBSERVE
JEFFERSON DAY

Plans are under consideration for
the proper celebration of Jefferson's
birthday, April Is, by the Democrats
of Canyon county. A banquet will
be given at the Saratoga hotel in case
present plans mature. State Com
mitteeman T. A. Walters and county
chairman d. @. Ruby have the plans
in hand. They have consulted with
leading democrats throughout the
county. The idea has met with en-
thusiastic approval.
Mr.. Walters informs The Tribune
that the leading democratic state lead
ers viii be invited and important an
nouncements will be made. Ii is the
plan to make the Caldwell observa-
ton OF Jefferson's birthday the lead
ing event of its character Of the state

FOREIGN ELEMENT CLOSELY
WATCHED.

In spite OF free trade we notice that
in Idaho there is still a disposition
to patronize home industry. A dis
patch to the Boise Statesman from
Pocatello, giving an account of the
destruction of some 3ll4 pints of
whisky by the officers, makes the fol-
lowing statement: AT the present
time, however, while it is possible to
obtain drink at good many places,
the practice has been greatly cut down
and closer espionage has been kept
on the foreign element" The Tribune
derives considerable satisfaction from
the fact that the industry of boot
Logging will be given over to natives
in SO far as possible. Of course
cheap foreign labor cannot be kept
out entirely but public sentiment is in
favor of American born offenders.
The destruction of the liquor took
place last week. All told II gallons
of barrel whisky, 2l46 pins of bot
tied whisky, two quarts of brandy and
9l4 bottles of beer were con6scated
and dumped into the Portneuf river.
The coniiscated liquors represented
a wholesale value of at least $2,500.00,
and a retail value hard to estimate.
Ninety per cent. of the Bannock Co.
criminal cases during the past two
years were bootlegging cases. The
officers of Bannock county have tried
hard to suppress the traffic. They
have at least kept the courts busy.

News Snapshots
OF the Week
COMMERCIAL CLUB
ENTERTA|NS PUBLIC

The annual dance of the CONNER
.cial club Tuesday evening at the Mill
tia club was the best ever experienced
by that organization.
Nampa was especially well repre-
sented, though the other towns sent
their delegations.
The program given before the
dance was in the hands of Prof.
F. F. Beale and proved to be one of
the most popular Mr.. Beale has ever
given. 1t was all so pleasing that any
special mention Of particular numbers
would prove embarrassing.
By the time the program was fin
iShed those who had come prepared
to leave upon its completion were
having such good time that they
remained for the dance and one Of
the merriest evenings in the history
of the city was spent and the drill
hall crowded to its utmost capacity
Notwithstanding that the dance
had been arranged in honor of ST.
Patrick two dauntless spirits appeared
in e-provoking ties of bright
orange hue. The rallying cry of
"Erin-go-braugh" brought enough
true sons of Erin to the rescue and
the orange ties disappeared after a
Few breathless moments.
In the square dances Jack Harring-
ton did himself proud in calling the
changes.
The card tables in the club room
were comfortably filled and everybody
had a pleasant evening.
About 5000 was realized after
all the bills were paid. This sum will
be used by the entertainment COM
mittee for strictly entertainment work
in the interest of the whole city as
occasion requires.
Walter Sebree especially requested
that his name be mentioned among
those present as his family is in Cal
ifornia.

than of Emmett. Mrs. Workman has

F.. f. Fiske is one of the leading
Republicans of Idaho. He has SER
we'd as state central committeeman

of the Seattle exposition. He is
man of good standing throughout the
state and would make a strong cam

state treasurer. The Tribune trusts
that Mr.. Fiske will decide to become

DEATH OF FRED HOFFMAN.

Fred Hoffman died at the Canyon
hospital Sunday evening. The cause
of death was paralysis from which he
had suffered for several months. He
was seized some months ago while
bending over a cook stove and was
badly burned. Deceased was u
years of age. He was born in Ger
many but came to Caldwell about 20
years ago from Oregon.
He was well known character and
greatly esteemed by the entire COM
munity for warm hearted generosity,
For many years he ran a restaurant
in Caldwell and it is safe to say that
no one was ever denied a meal sim
ply because of lack of money. His
kindliness and charity was known all
along the Oregon Short Line.
The funeral was held from the Jones
undertaking parlors Wednesday. He
had no relatives so far as known.

KoorENAI COUNTY GOES DRY

Kootenai is the latest county in Id
aho to go dry. At an election, held
under the local option law, the county
went dry by about $780, There are
now in Idaho IL wet counties. They
are Bonner, Shoshone, Idaho, Boise,
Ada, Owyhee, Elmore, Minidoka,
Power, Custer and Blaine. The to-
tai population of thees II counties is
less than 100000, while the total pop
ulation of the state is at least $780,
GOO. There is no question but that
at least three, Elmore, Minidoka and
Power counties, will go dry at the
next local option election which they
hold.
Kootenai county went dry at the
first election; wet at the second; and
dry at the third. Idaho county went
dry and at the next election wet. 1t
has held but two elections. All the
other counties that have gone dry
have remained in the dry column. Ada
county. has gone wet on two occas-
ions, Elmore on one. Power county
is wet by virtue OF the fact that part
of it was formerly part of Blaine
county. Minidoka county went wet
at a special local option election. The
question has never been submitted to
the people of Shoshone, Boise, Blaine
Custer and Owyhee counties.
Relying upon the showing they have
made in the local option elections in
this state the anti-saloon league will
to carry statewide prohi-
bition. The members are convinced
that a great majority of the people
of Idaho favor the prohibition of the

FROM KALISPELL

The resignation of Rev. d. B. Titus.

leaves early in April to take up his
work with the church at Kalispel,
Montana, to which place he has an
urgent call.

churches of the city have enjoyed an
unusual degree of harmonious team
work during the past two years. All
of them strong men, their lives dedi-
Gated to the uplift of humanity, Rev.
Titus has been recognized as one
among the strongest. Not only the

the entire community, will be losers
because of his leaving.
The following resolutions were
passed by a committee appointed
from the congregation.
Resolutions.
Whereas, in the estimation of our
pastor, Rev d. B. Titus, it seems ex-
pedient that he sever his relation as
pastor with the Caldwell Christian
church, therefore, be it resolved:
First, that we, the people with whom
and for whom he has labored so eff
ficiently and so faithfully during the
nearly two years past, wish thus pub
licly to express our recognition of
his splendid qualities as Christian
minister; his fearless presentation of
truth, his sweet spirited humility and
concern for all that
affects the welfare of the cause of
Christ.
Second, to voice our appreciation OF
his untiring efforts to visualize the
teachings of the Master in the lives
of his followers as we'll as in his own
life.
Third, to voice our deep regret be-
cause of the conditions which occas-
toned his resignation.
Last, to pray the blessings of Heav-
en- upon him in whatsoever field he
may labor.
