CALDWELL
ANOTHER FINE HORSE FOR IDAHO
We find the following in the Concord
Sun, Contra Costa county, California:
Mr. John Riggs Coon of Morgan
Terrltorry, took his departure on
Wednesday, the 14th 'inst., for Idaho.
He takes with him a fine young stal
lion, Paris Boy Jr., which he purchased
from Silverio Soto for $1,000. The
stallion is a dark brown, 16 hands
inches high, weighs fully 1,600 gounds,
sired by Paris Boy, a very superior
Norman who took the first premium at
the San Jose fair, State fair and Con
tra Costa fair three years ago. The
pedigree runs as follows: Paris Boy
Jr. sired by Paris Boy; 1st dam by
Belmont; 2d dam by Billy Chatam, he
by Cracker; 3J dam by St. Louis, he by
Grey Eagle; 4th dam by Bertrard, he by
Sir Archer. Idaho will have a stallion
equal to the most promising in Califor
nia, a pronounced thoroughbred in all
its actions. It is the intention of Mr.
Coon to visit an uncle—Hon. Henry C.
Riggs, who has been a resident of Ida
ho about 20 years. This gentleman is
a horseman and will be remembered by
many old Pacific coasters as a pioneer
livery and stage man, and it is at his
instance that his nephew, Mr. Coon,
visits Idaho with his splendid and noted
horse.
"Morgan Territory" mentioned
above is a large tract of land in Diab
lo, Contra Costa county, owned by
Jerry Morgan, a brother-in-law of Hon.
H. C. Riggs.
And the Portland Rural Spirit, under
the head of "A Slashing Good One,"
has this to say of the horse;
During the week Mr. J. R. Coon, of
California, a nephew of H. C. Riggs, of
Falk's Store, I.T., passed through this
city on his way to Idaho with Paris
Boy Jr., a bay stallion five years old,
by imported Paris Boy, No. 368; dam a
Hambletonian mare. This young horse
stands 17 hands high and weighs 1,600
pounds, and for style and action his
equal would be hard to find. He will
be placed in the stud soon after arriv
ing at his new home. Mr. Coon says
that Mr. Riggs intimated to him by let
ter the sort of a horse that be believed
would suit that country, and asked our
judgment as to how near ho had come
to Mr. Riggs' idea. If Paris Boy, Jr.,
judging from his build and style, fai k
to produce the very sort of horses that
is now in demand, then we shall say
that the dams were surely at fault. He
will certainly be of much value to a
country like the one to which he is now
going.
Then L B Lindsey, a former resident
of Boise, now of Portland, and who
stands at the head of the horse profes
sion in the northwest, thus writes of
the horse :
"Paris Boy" is a very fine horse, and
just the one you want up in that coun
try to breed for all work; and I believe
you will get many fine carriage horses
from him, a class of animals that al
ways sell readily for large prices.
When the railroad is finished I will
visit my old friends in Idaho.
GOOD WORDS.
8Uru City Avalanche.
Hon. P. A. Regan, who returned
from Boise City on Sunday last, in
forms us that while gone be visited
Caldwell, on The O. S. L. R. R., near
Boise River. The town is being
built up rapidly with good substan
tial frame buildings, and has quite a
lively appearance. While there ho
met R. E. Strahorn and W. J. Cuddy.
The former gentlemen is manager cf
the Idaho Land Improvement Comp
any, while the latter naft^td gentle
man will commence the 'jrkblication
of The Tribune, at an early day. A
large canal is being constructed by
the Land Improvement Co., which di
verts water from Boise River at a
point about seven miles above Cald
well. It will probably be
on the table lands nntil it
Snake R'.ver. The oanal will
continued
reaches
carry
water enough to irrigate millions cf
acres of land, and will cover an im
mense amount of fine agricultural
soil lying between the point of di
vergence with Boise River and Snake
River. A bridge for public use is be
ing bnilt across Boise River near
Caldwell, with an excellent grade to
and from the stream. It is thought
that the people of Caldwell will build
a road from this side of Snake River
over the low divide to Suoker Creek,
in order to give people in Jordan
Valley and Suoker Creek who desire
to trade with Caldwell, a good thor
oughfare to and from that place. A
survey is now being made from Cald
well to Boise for a branch
which will probably be built
certain circumstances. Mr.
was very much pleased with his vis
it, and with the people whom
met He thinks that if there is to be
any very considerable town on the
line of the O. S. L. in Idaho, that
fc^ldwell will be the place.
BaJI Like Tribune.
■' F. Aacotte, the general manager
road,
under
Regan
he
cf the Rocky Mountain Bell Tele
phone Company, came djwn from
Idaho a few daye ego. He succeed
ed during the past week in complet
ing negotiations for the establish
ment of a telephone system in Boise
City apd in the new town cf Caldwell,
and a connecting link between the
two towns. He says that Caldwell
has a bright future before it, and that.
Judging from the enterprise exhibited
by its citizens, it la bound to make a
good location.

young contractor from Nebraska, be
