clearly developed since YESTERDAY,
some figures which then were some
what indistinct.
Prominent among them was Colonel
Brodhead, who had just left a coun-
ell where a prominent candidate for
Recorder and some ketchum Demo-
Gratis had promised to make him Pro-
bate Judge and ordered him to draw
out OF the race for Recorder. The
Colonel, with no great grace, appeared
on the Dial, where he stood along
with Lennon and Street, scowling on
the latter.
just little distance G. stood Judge
Cannady. He had just decided aud
stated that in order to secure his cleo
ton he must drop his old friends in
HALEY who have been hand-in- glove
with and stood by him when he need
ed their aid, and take Pat Kinney of
Shoshone as his pet candidate for
Sheriff. And to smooth over recent
unpleasant matters, Billy Yeates must
join the gang for Assessor, and the
circle lacked only one to be complete.
That one was Commissioner for this.

However, the Dial showed this
combination: Cannady for Recorder,
Kinney for Sheriff, Yeates for AS
SCISSOR, Brodhead for Probate Judge,
and Fox if French don't kick, or
French if Fox don't kick, for County
Commissioner in the Second District.
Back in the distance was "Dark
Horse" who laughed when Kinney
was battered to the Sheriff's post, and
said "Good enough! Prepare his
coffin and burial clothing. I'll be in
at the death.'' A sadness stole over
Kinney's face, but he stood up to his
post-he was battered and had to
Among the figures on the
Dial, some presented amusing pic
lures. There were two doctors"
they stood beneath stretch
er on which were the words,
"For Coroner" They were each
armed with a butchers knife and
quart of very common whisky, and
were pulling and Juggling at corpse.
AS they pulled and cut tho corpse,
they scowled at each other and broke
out into such compliments as, "You
run for Coroner! you! a quack! a
snide !" And then swig at the
bottle and more butcher work on the
corpse.
Another funny picture was the slit
tie fellow" from Ketchum who is
candidate for District Attorney. On
the Dial's eastern border is seen a
seashore with the pillows breaking in
foam upon its sands. The "little Eel
low" was making tracks from the
Democratic convention that defeated
him, carrying, slung over his shout
der, the slate and pencil and few
"child's" primers he used in primary
schools. Beside these were couple
of Certificates" that are so easily pro-
cured and certify fitness and eompe-
tency to practise law, but useless to
him now in Idaho. The ''little fell
low" was crying like a child, and be-
tween his sobs would sing, "My hopes
have departed forever, my visions of
greatness have fled" In his front on
the Dial was pile Of decayed oysters

ing the Democratic party, who await
ed the ''little fellows" arrival, and

Maryland, on the half-shell
The same figures as told of Tuesday
in the TIMES occupied their places on
the Dial to-day, and it was evident
from their positions and fxedness of
appearance that little change will be
made until after the primaries. The
ozark Horse" for Sheriff is still visi-
BILE away back on the Republican
side, but as yet the TIMES cannot
clearly identify him.
Now the TIMES puts away the Dial
