DARING BURGLAR|tS
COMMITTED TUESDAY
Botkin-Joy Drug Store and Miller
Sherman Hardware Store En-
tered and Robbed.

Two daring robberies were made
Tuesday night. The Botkin-Joy drug
and jewelry store and the Miller
Sherman hardware store were both
entered.
Mr.. Botkin thinks the burglary was
committed early Wednesday morning.
Entrance was made through a win
dow into the basement. Jewelry
precious stones and other small arti-
cles of high value were taken. Mr.
Botkin cannot make an estimate of
the value of the goods taken, but it
is feared it will reach $4,000. An ex-
ceptionally fine diamind was dropped
by the robbers and left behind. The
articles were taken from the safe
which was either unlocked by the bur-
glars or had not been locked the eve
ming before Mr.. Botkin is convinced
that the safe was locked as usual, and
consequently the work must have been
done by professionals.
Small Loss at Hardware Store.
Entrance to the hardware store was
through the back door. Pocketknives
revolvers and other small articles
were taken. The loss to Messrs. Mil
Ter and Sherman will not exceed $3.50
The robberies were promptly re-
ported Wednesday morning to the
sheriff's office. Sheriff Froman and
deputies and the police force of the
city Immediately got busy. but to date
no arrests have been made and nc
definite clues found.

Mr.. Gibbons is at present secretry
of the Caldwell Commercial club and
will continue to act in that capacity
until the first of the month. He came
to Caldwell several years ago and en-
Gagged in the newspaper business here
and at Boise. Later he was selected
secretary of the Commercial club and
has served in that capacity for several
wears with the utmost satisfaction to
The club. He volunteered his services
at the outbreak of the war and served
the entire time the old End Idaho was
in France Upon his return he was

Mr.. Hyde, too, is young man of
splendid attainments and good expe-
rience. He stands equally high with
Mr.. Gibbons for honesty and ability.

Sketch of Tribune.
The Tribune was established in 1881
by w. F. Cuddy, who is now en-
ployed as editor of the Weekly Ore
CONAN at Portland. Within a year
Mr.. Cuddy sold the paper to Messrs
Frank and A. K. Steunenberg, who
have since died, but not without reach
in the highest stations in the polit-
ical and business affairs of the state
In 1893 the paper was purchased by
the late Rees H. Davis. 1t can be
said that nearly all of the time since
1898 the paper has been under the
management of member of the Da-
Wis family.
The plant is well equipped with
modern printing machinery. The
newspaper has a large circulation
throughout the county and is doing
a good business.

Boise, July 8.-Nothing in the his
tory of Idaho has occurred to empha-
sibe the mutually of interest between
farmers and city folks and between
tanners and what the professional
political agitator calls "the intererts"
than the cooperative efforts put
forth during the past week to save the
irrigation pumping situation.
1t has also further drawn the far
mers, the people in the cities and the
farmers and those who serve them
into closer bonds of cooperation, and
to that extent thwarted the aims of
those irresponsible persons who
by keeping them apart.
Power for Pumping.
The temporary shortage of water
caused an unusual burden to be placed
upon the facilities for pumping water
to various sections. This condition
was drawn to the attention of the
Idaho Power company, which took
steps Immediately to obtain relief for
the farmers. Manager Putnam and
Superintendent Markhus of the COM
pany took the matter in charge per-
sonally and in less than "a hours had
completed arrangements to guarantee
a pumping service sufficient to over
come the shortage.
Commercial Power Curtailed.
The matter was taken up with users
of commercial power and with cities
and arrangements made to curtail the
commercial and city lighting service
in order that the pumping of water
might not be interrupted. If neces-
sary, it was stated the cities would
go dark" SO the farmers might be
amply supplied at a most important
crop period. Extra power was OBJ
tanned in that manner and with the
spontaneous and cheerful consent OF
the commercial users.
People in cities, in applaudin~ the
prompt action of the power company
made it known that, if necessary, they
would gladly have their street lighting
shut off and otherwise curtail their use
of power in order to accommodate an
acute condition on the farms irrigated
by pumping.
