DEAR WORLD. - One would think, from the
Cooks of the Idaho sheet called the ''Union, that
all the renegade Irishmen in the country had
formed a league with the devil and covenant
with his imps f,r the purpose of using the blar-
ney stone upon their countlynen, and for lying a
few votes into the black ranks.
We pay little attention to it in Hog 'em, and
care less for its futile attempts When election
day comes we shall not sWerTe from our dnty.-
The glorious old Democratic ticket Will not fall
to sweep everything before it in Hog'em. Hol-
brook and Crutcher are gaining ground every day
We have got few Irishmen in these parts yet
who are not renegades to their common couutry's
interests and who have got too much firmness to
be led astray by lhe bally whacking barney OF all
the McLaughns and sDooleys in Boise county. II
the thieves and blacklegs here allvote the Repub-
aican ticket it will be as they should do.
At this present Writing-6 o'clock, A. MIR
Boatman, the nominee on the black ticket for The
Council, and Dooley, the Federal Tax Assessor
with some regular gamblers, are engaged In po
ker game The Doc1 is not much behind ,fOa
practice makes perfect and he is decidedly on it
but they have got poor Dooley, at this time, S5O
in debt to one Of his opponents. OF course it is
supposed he will weigh out when the game closes
Such, dear WORLD, are stubborn facts, and these
e the sort OF men Oncie SaTn confers his official
honors upon, and a few misguided voters of this
Territory would confer honors up6a with their
suffrages. 8 11
IA O'CLOCK The game closes and Dooley app
pears with the sideiof his face skinned. He re-
fdsed to fight in any ,cdy, account Of size but
alter q few slaps he appears anxious to pay. he
is willing to receipt for income taxes in DO. Mil
&er's name, but was told he could not have the
money on that 'slay out OF course the Demo-
cratic party contains all the thieves and gamblers;
so, at least, the more respectable portion OF the
blacks would have us believe. But i guess, Mr.
Editor, they can hold their own with lis Indeed
so far as my observation goes. they can discount
us. The game run all night. Elegant business
for wo1ld,be Councilmanl If any body think
Dr. Boatman will not run terribly behind his owu
ticket in HOg'em he can get some liberal bets in
these parts. I've not learned Just how much The
Doc. and Dooley lost, but hope Uncle Sam is in
receipt of daily internal revenue enoagh to stand
his share of it. Send mp some mole Dooleys from
Buena Vista ca Bannock if you know of any more
Hog EN- is a "sequestered Yalen where they can
indulge such prepensities with none toimolest OF
make them afraid" Itquite "takes the dilapida
ted linen off the shrubbery.n Is you could spare
the editor of the "union'' for night or two we
shall be obliged to ''yees.' 3 t
The taTTness and candOr of the nominees on the
Democratic ticket, so far as heard from, meets
with universal responseSn gratitude from the
voters of Hog 'em precinct and vicinity, and eS
pecially does the subscriber wish it understood
that besides other American citizens who have
not turned renegades yetare left few who like
myself are proud to say Il am an
1RISHMAN.n
