oUT-oF-ToWN SHOPPING.
Caldwell Tribune)

! A0diuWtn IlDunt.J
There is an undeniable attraction tc
shopping out-of-to town and an aristo-
cratic presumption with the ability to
go to a large city to spend dollars.
We have it from a local mems fur
nishing store branch of a Boise con-
Germ, that no less than 30 Caldwell
men bought suits at the Boise store in
a single recent month Without going
out of town. those purchasers could
have bought identicaly suits for the
same or less money. But they bought
just little vanity with the dollars
they spent away from here.
This incident might be duplicated
almost indefinitely People are vain
they fancy the thing their neighboi
cannot or will not do may serve to set
them apart.
Wilder people ignore their own bus
mess people to trade in Caldwell;
Caldwellites-too many of them-go to
Boise TO buy the things they can get
more cheaply and much more easily at
home. Boise shoppers and residents

light in New York buying trips Fifth

come from Paris
How foolish, How futile And how
expensive to your home community.
Money is scarce. We need all we have

Kirkham shows in what respects the
above mentioned factors apply to the

to be favorable for prospecting. A
list of localities is presented where it
is recommended that test holes be

understaken.

and then briefly but eloquently eulo-
gized the life and character of Lincoln.
He closed his address by referring to
the great debate between Lincoln and
Douglas at Freeport, H., when Lincoln
propounded to his opponent the ques-
ton as to his attitude toward the ex-
. tension of slavery as laid down in the
bred Scott decision. This question was
asked by Lincoln against the advice Of
all his political friends, who pointed
out what the answer of Douglas would
be and that would defeat Lincoln for
the senate This Lincoln admitted but
said that while il would mean his own
defeat. it would split the democratic
party nationally and deprive Douglas
of the presidency. And it did This,
Mr. Callahan said illustrated one of
the outstanding characteristics of Lin
coin: his ability to foresee effects up
on the public mind and his willingness
to sacrifice personal ambitions within
his grasp for the accomplishment of
greater things beyond.

Kelley Tells How Famous Company
Received Its Name.
In a letter from c. j. Kelly. pub
lished in the Metal Industry the pres
ident of the Anaconda Copper Mining
company tells how the company came
to receive its name.
After the discovery and working Of
placer deposits in the vicinity of Butte,
quartz mining became active about
1875. In this year the Anaconda min
ing claim was located by Michael A.
Hickey a pioneer miner who also To-
Gated the st. Lawrence and other ad-
iacent claims. These mining claims
were located at the summit of roll
ing hill, along the surface of which the
great Anaconda vein outcropped. Ow-
ing to the inequalities of the surface.
the vein appeared to have a winding
course or trend over the Anaconda
hill across the gulch to the st. Law
renee mining claim, and thence east
erly The idea of naming the claim
Anaconda" was obtained by Hickey
from the winding course of the huge
outcrop of this vein. as described, so
that it is apparent there was correl-
alton between the name as applied to
this mining claim and the dictionary
definition. Later, when the Anaconda
mining claim constituted the principal
basic element in the group of claims
that were consolidated and worked as
a company. the name of anaconda"
was applied to the company which Sc
cured these claims, and has been con-
tinued
