It will bo remembered that the Caravan' paused In Sidney for lunch on their tour and they mnde a very tidy and) imposing nppearanco with tholr good ' equipment and general air of well bo ing. Tho head of tho Caravan, Air Scott, called upon tho Telegraph re porter; at tho office, introducing sov. nl-lll nf Hll lnrlfoa nrwl nMln?- titnmlinrc I of tho party, and tho visitors gave uvqry oviuonco oi mgn culture ana re finement. They were full of high hope as they approached tho land of prom ise and, even wo along tho route who got but brief acquaintance with them, regret that they wero disappointed and defeated In their dreams, which! they wero If tho following Is true, whicjli wo take from tho Boise Daily Statesman: A committeo of bankers, lawyers and merchants visited tho Scott colony to learn if Uio rumors of dls whothor a fiold crop was alfalfa or sllago corn.

Ho was about as opti mistic as any of theso people I saw. Ho said he was stuck, had been brought hero under a false hnpret, slon, but was going to stick around and try to mnko good as ho likes tho country. Tho composite Impression left witli the Investigators, as far as I learn talking with them, Is that theso poo plo have been lured Into Idnho by somo very altitudlnous lying in the way of telling them considerably les than half tho truth, "tolling tho. truth to tho ear, but lying to tho hope," If' you get what I moan. I For instance, thoy wore talked to about Buhl all tho time and told them their tract was 12 miles from town, but they were not told thnt tho town they would be 12 miles from was Castleford. Tho magnificent scenery was described to them, and tho grand canyon that Jay close to the tract where there was scenery enough for a lifetime, but they had no Idea they meant to go down into it and up out of It. They were given glittering generalities which left with thorn the Impression that thoy wore to bo lo. cated wheio ovory prospect pleases and not oven man Is vile. From almost tho start thoy wore met with brass bands speeches mado at them and flags displayed In their honor. They wWo dined and driven about, and mado to feel that tho earth and all its fullness was theirs for tho asking. Then Governor Davis and his niden met them and told them how glad all Idaho was to havo them with us nd what great things wero in store for them. Down to tho last minute they wero tho center of triumphnl pro. gross, rising In a swift crescendo the farther they got from home. Buhi gavo them tho glad hand nnd thoy en tered tho town singing. Then, in tho afternoon of a day, thoy started on tho last lap of their Journey; the promised land was Just ovor there, "12 miles from town." As day declined thoy camo to that fearsome canyon, and beyond lay tho grny.grcon desort, their Ultima Thulo, "tho vast, lllimlt. able, boundless west," with tho moun tains marking tho limit of tho world. Speculating on tho psychology of it Is interesting.
