Dr. W. C. Maxey, commandant Sol

oral days during the past week.
The Mayor, Badley, Blatchley, Steun

heiug at the bedside of his mother by
Ahe suddeness of her death.
John M. Nicholas was in town today.
He is putting out a large orchard and
vineyard, near Meadow Farm between
Caldwell and Nampa. Mr. Nicholas
says things looked a little gloomy last
summer but are wearing a brighter hue
now. He says this is the best section
in Idaho by all odds,
It is noticeable that our Democratic
andPopnlist contemporaries are pub
lishing serial biographical catalogues
of their wares— candidates we mean.
The Tribune ^Hs relieved from such
advertising schefces by the fact that
the names and characters of our candi
dates are graven dfct,the memories and
cherished in the hearts of the people,
there!)

yon county, was busy among the solid

A careful inspection of "The Cald
well Pharmacy," this morning, revealed
nothing missing except a £500 pipe
and a bottle of their famous "Cough
Syrup," which is displacing all worth
less patent preparations the market is
ilooded with, only 25 cents bottle, read
the robber's testimonial next issue.
BORN—Near Caldwell, to Mrs and Mr.
John Nicholas, Saturday, a girl. Ali
well.
READING ROOMS.
Caldwell has her higli school, one of
the best in the state. She has a college
located in her midst with educational
facilities unsurpassed ; and in connec
tion with that institution a library con
taining the best books purchasable,
standard works upon every subject,
suitable for every walk of life, and
embracing every thing elevating and
ennobling, and is open to the public.
She also has her literary societies, and
kindred institutions for the acquiring of
knowledge. Another competitor has
appeared in the shape of a club. The
young men of our city imbued with
the idea of bettering their condition
will form an organization consisting of
some thirty members, rent a suite of
rooms, presumably in the Masonic
block, and fit them up in a manner
suitable for an evening's enjoyment.
There will be a reading room, and
rooms for cards and billiards. The
rooms will be made comfortable and
be open every evening and Sunday
afternoons. The young men desire
place where they can congregate ev
enings other than the saloons and en
joy pleasaut company aud mutual en
tertainment beneneficial to themselves;
also a place where they can entertain
their gentlemen friends. It is a good
move. It will relieve life of consider
able monotony.
THE FORWARDING COMPANY.
Immense and Rapidly Increasing Business —
Wholesale and Jobbing—Mr. Coffin's Quiet,
Energetic and Efficient Management—
Caldwell Rapidly Assuming the
Proportions of a Commer
cial Center.
Probably very few people even in
Caldwell realize the immense amount
of business that is now being transacted
by the Caldwell Forwardiug Co., to
which firm-title must be added, general
commission, wholesale and jobbing
merchants. The Tribune did not
have but a faint idea until facts and
figures were examined, which are truly
astonishing. Six or seven months ago
when S. M. Cofiin assumed manage
ment, the business of the firm was
largely restricted to storage and for
warding business, only some HO articles
of merchandise, in the grocery and pro
vision line, being handled. The princi
pal patrons of theJForwarding company
were home merchants and the institu
tion, in its merchandisiug features, w as
regarded more as an association of
local merchants, jointly conducting a
wholesale department as an aid to
retail business. In the few months
that Mr. Coffiu has directed the busi
ness of the establishment, it has taken
on an entirely different aspect and in
creased in proportions to an astonishing
extent. Now, upwards of 200 articles
of merchandise, covering nearly the
whole range of staples, are constantly
kept in stock. The business has
jumped from a matter of a thousand
or two dollars monthly, to $25,000 per
month. Instead of being largely re
stricted to storage and forwarding, that
feature of the business, though largely
increased, has takeu a seconary posi
tion. Instead of being a mere adjunct
to local retail business, it. is the whole
sale depot for a goodly portion of south
eastern Oregon and six counties in
south western Idaho. It supplies re
tail trade from Weiser to Shoshone
along the Oregon Short Line, a distance
of several hundred miles. It furnishes
the stores of DeLamar and Silver City,
in Owyhee county; it reaches out to
Boise and supplies its merchants at
better raflbs than can be procured else
where. The business of the Forward
ing Company is a physical and practi
cal demonstration of the fact that Cald
well is the natural commercial center
of south western Idaho and eastern
Oregon. It can not be denied that the
recent rapid growth of this institution
is due to the energetic and efficient
management of Mr. S. ivl. Coffin.
While such an establishment is the
natural correlative of Caldwell's loca
tion, still it required business ability of
no ordinary mark to establish it under
the depressed conditions which have
been so prevalent during the past half
year. Mr. « 'oifin says that he has suc
ceeded in procuring traffic rates which
give the Forwarding company superior
advantages and has reduce the business
to such a perfect and economical system
that he can make prices to customers
lower than any house in the state. The
proportions of the business and the
commercial standing of the firm are
such that it can compete anywhere aud
with anybody. A remarkable thing in
the recent experience of the Forward
ing Company is that business which
heretofore has been earnestly and urg
ently solicited but refused, now comes
of its own accord. The reason is pa
tent. Mr. Coffin's theory is that cus
tomers will deal where they can do best,
consequently he has bent al) his efforts
in the direction of their best interests.
He sells cheaper and delivers prompter
than any competitor. That is the
secret. The Forwarding Company is
an institution which the people of
Caldwell should be proud of. It is do
ing a mighty work towards establish
ing tue commercial supremacy of this
city.
DEMOCRATIC MEETING
A Somewhat Small but Attentive Audience— Fr«,
zer, Young and Martin Express Themselve*
—Nugent Defended.
Monday night a portion of the Peo
ple of Caldwell and vicinity enjoyed
something of a novelty—a Democratic
meeting. Many leading Democrats were
conspicuously absent, whether from a
coolness of faith or inclemency of weath
er, deponent sayeth not. Mr. Missouri
Young first addressed the audience in
a calm, clear voice, repeating much in
teresting historical matter, gleaned
from current compaign literature and
designed to propogate the immutable
principles of Democracy. Mr. Young
said, "My God," only once, and other
wise conducted himself in a gentle
manly and conservative manner. Mr.
W. W. Frazer followed with some ex
cellent quotations from Henry Braidy
aud the poets. The Frazer speech
shows industrious compilation and
discrimination and taste in se
lection. He combines in his effort
some of the best things in Democratic
prose and miscellaneous poesy. Every
body was delighted with his repertoire
Mr. Martin came next with a defense
of Judge Nugent which was designed
to rebut and overcome the testimony
of Tom Cahalan. Mr. Martin was
earnest and logical. His speech made
the best impression of any of the even
ing. Altogether, the opening Demo
cratic meeting was a pleasant and in
offensive affair. Each speaker dis
played the appearance and manner of
a gentleman. If the night had been
fairer, it is probable the audience were
larger.
CALDWELL GETS IT.
The Representatives Return—Next Grand Lo<9«,
I. O. O. F. Will Be Held at Caldwell.
The Caldwell representatives to the
1. 0. O. F. Grand Lodge session at
Lewiston, returned home Saturday.
The general proceedings of the body
have already appeared in the columns.
Thk Tribune need now only record
the fact that the Caldwell contingent,
ladies and gentlemen, returned home
safe and sound, happy and healthy
Grand Secretary Steunenberg is profuse
in his praise of the hospitality of Lew
iston and all the representatives pro
nounce the session a grand success.
But they are all glad to get back to
Caldwell. They say that after travel
ing the state over from center to cir
cumference, Caldwell is the only place
to live in. No other town or locality
shows so much energy, progress and
prosperity as our own. The next ses
sion of the Grand Lodge will be held in
this city and it is firmly expected that
this will then be established as the per
manent headquarters of the I. O. O. F.
in Idaho. It is the impression of the
Caldwell delegation that after one ses
sion of the Grand Lodge is held here,
the body will fiatly refuse to consider
propositions from any other locality.
Far in advance, The Tribune tenders
the freedom of the city to the fraternal
chain gang and vouches for their royal
entertainment.

quarterly public examination of appli
cants for School Teachers Certificates

THE CREAM OF CURRENT THOUGHT.
Public Opinion, published at Wash
ington, D. C., is a weekly journal de
voted to the reproduction, in condensed
form, of carefully selected magazine
articles aud of editorial comment from
the representative daily and weekly
press of all political parties, and from
all parts of the country. The readers
of Public Opinion get all sides of every
question. It is just the paper that the
farmer and villager need for general
reading. It keeps its readers fully
abreast of the times and supplies them
with the best thought of the day in the
fields of American affairs, foreign
affairs, sociology, commerce, finance,
religion, science, education, art and
new books. Public Opinion and The
Tribune supplement each other ad
mirably. Together they give the farm
er or villager and his family more of
current news, editorial comment, and
magazine literature than can be had in
any other way for five times their cost.
The price of Public Opinion has been
reduced from $3.00 to §2.50 per year.
We have just completed arrangements
by which we can offer Public Opinion
and The Tribune for ®4 cash per year.
Merchandise bought right is half sold.
We know that under our roof is the
largest stock of goods ever brought to
Idaho. Every item will be offered to
our patrons at closest margins. We
are going to demonstrate to the trade
of southern Idaho that to buy goods of
us is to save money on every article.
We are the only house in this part of
the country that" sends our representa
tive to market. Our connections for
buying are such that we can afford
special inducements in all departments.
We handle everything in general mer
chandise, bread and butter stuff to lux
uries both to eat and wear.
