THE IDAHO CONGRESSMAN.

The Idaho Democrats in convention on
Friday made no mistake in their choice of
man to make the race for Congress.
Captain E. b. TRUE is one of those men
whom everybody likes because everybody
recognizes them as good citizens. Helis a
thorough Democrat. and this will be under
stood as meaning all there is in the W ords
when we say that he was a Democrat in
that fanatically Republican state, Maine,
where his early life was passed, and has
been Democrat through all the years Of
his sojourn in the west. His long resi-
dence in Idaho has endeared him to the
people. for they have found him true
man all the time, active in his party,
but for his party's good and not
for his own political advancement.
While he has held Office and served in the
Legislature, it was never by his own seek
ing, and we happen to know that in the
present instance the nomination came to
him most unexpectedly.
THE HERALD believes that if any Demo
crat can carry Idaho for Congress this fall
against SWEET, the Repu Dlican candidate,
it is Captain TRUE, and we believe he will
do. We shall not discount Representative
SWEETS strength OF popularity. During
his two years in Congress he has worked
diligently for his state, and there is svi-
dence that his labors are appreciated. We
are fully aware of all this AT the same
time we believe Mr.. TRUE will be elected.
Besides being personally popular, he is re-
cognized as being just as good q friend to
Idaho and her interests as Mr.. SWEET.
Furthermore, the people up there seem bent
on making change, and installing the De-
mocracy. The state administration underth
Republicans is generally conceded to
have been little less than disreputable. 1t
has been soshameful that the popular de-
mand is for q change, and we believe the
congressman will go down with the others.
The third party which has recently sprang
into existence is the direct outgrowtA of
Republican incompetency and misrple.
There is no denying the fact that the third
party is an important factor in the present
contest. and it Is admitted that its member
ship is largely of former Republicans who
are so Disguised with the record of the
party that they could not longer train with
it, and out of sheer self-respect formed a
new organization.
Two years ago Mr.. SWEETS majority, the
total vote OF the state being IS, l56, was
2, 104. Then the Democracy were in dis
organized condition and were discouraged
from series of defeats which had given
the opposition all the Offices, all the federal
patronage and influence and all the election
machinery. Under the circumstances il
was somewhat surprising that the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress received over
5000 votes. This year there exist entirely
different conditions. The Republicans
have failed with the people and are divided
and disgruntled, while many are working
earnestly in an opposition party, the Demo
Gratis are united, are we'll Differed and are
full of hope, confidence and determination.
The contest for the seat in Congress- will
be close one and it is our opinion that
Captain TRUE will be the victor

SENATOR PErTIGREw does not agree with
the Massachusetts and other radical Re-
publicans on policy OF enacting Congress
sional election, or force bill, thinking it
would place the southern people in the
power of an inferior race, which they would
be justified in resisting. In recent inter
view he said:
1t was not for this that the war OF the rebel.
lion was fought. The men who shouldered
muskets and fought for the Union wanted to
free the slaves and they fought for that result
They did not fight for the elevation of the
blacks above themselves. The thought of it is
unholy and depressing, and that is the reason
why think that the sooner the Republicans
who are endeavoring to revivify the force bill
abandon their efforts the better it will be fol

A LITTLE SENSATION.

The sensation of the hour is detailed in
another part of this mornings HERALp.
It seems that somebody ION the insiden of
the chamber of commerce case against the
railways for alleged freight discrimination
against this territory undertook to fortify
the defense by exposing the hand Of the
chamber. Negotiations by letters and in
terviews have been going on for some
weeks, but it does not appear that any
money passed, that any ideal " was con
summated, that any real exposure was
made The only thing OF value which is
made apparent by the publication OF the
correspondence is That untrustworthy per-
sons have known what was being done and
had access to papers which should
only have been seen by reliable parties
We do not understand that whatever case
against the railways may have existed has
been weakened. The facts certainly exist,
aud the evidence has not been shakeh by
the attempt of INSCRIPTIONS and traitotnus
persons to defeat the shippers.
However, it may now be doubted that the
case will ne brought to trial as proposed, il
at all Another postp0nement has been de-
clared as the result OF the exposure of the
plot referred to. and the hearing If it shall
ever take place, will probably be in Wash
ington. But as remarked, We doubt there
will be a hearing. Confidence has been
shaken and. as we understand it, the lead
ing shippers propose to go no further under
the direction of the chamber of commerce,
preferring to deal directly with the rail
ways. The latter, it is also said, are eager
to forget what has been done and to help
shippers TO also forget, by making equitable
rates for the future. If this latter shall be
done the agitation will have been profit
able, even though punishment shall not be
imposed for the wrongdoing of the past.
