Why such decision should have
been rendered by men of the intellect
ual standing of the judges in that de-
bate is difficult to comprehend, for to
any unbiased mind the arguments of
the affirmative were conclusive as to
facts, logically presented, and COM
pletely refuted the position of the
negative at nearly every turn. At
least that is the way we look upon it.
Being deenly interested in subjects
of this nature and having spent years
in the investigation of Social Phenom-
ena, would like to know by what
process of reasoning the honorable
judges came to their conclusion. Be-
ing at a loss to understand the mind
processes involved in this case, l
would respectfully challenge one or
all of these judges to meet me in pub
lie debate upon the subject, RE
solved: That the Government of the
United States should own. control and

On this subject have always held
an affirmative view have been I'M
able to find any but anarchistic rea-

was this that brought the decision of
our educators in the Nampa- Caldwell

Feeling confident that these men
have only the highest good for the
greatest number in view, they should
be willing to substantiate their con-
clusion on the public platform in the
near future and leave the decision to
the audience.
Hoping that this challenge will be

The trade letter deals with local
conditions, markets, ETC., as follows:
During the latter part of February
and the first of March there was a
light fall of snow but it melted al
most as soon as it fell. Most of
March has been nice weather and the
ground is in splendid condition for
farming. Flowing is we'll along and
considerable spring seeding has al
ready been done. The grass is well
started in the lower hills and afford
ing considerable pasture for sheep.
Hay-During the past thirty days rs
carloads of hay were shipped out from

baled for shipment in the near future.

Grain-There has been a further

decline in the price of wheat and the
vember. Those who are keeping post
ed on wheat supply and markets in
form us that they are inclined to the
opinion that wheat later on will likely
strengthen in price rather than drop
much lower or remain at the present
price. The Caldwell Milling & Eleva-
tor company reports paying $l.30 cwt.
for wheat. $l.l5 cwt for oats and $l.25
cwt for barley.
Live Stockholders here today are
paying S. 10 cwt. for hogs. The high
est price recently paid was $S25.
Cattle have shown a stronger trend
and one of our customers on a recent
shipment to Portland received %.6S

good prices are being paid stock of

and we'll attended. The March sales
were large and good prices were re-
ceived. Representatives of the Italian
government held an inspection March
18th and took 20 carload.
