Big Corn.

A stock OF corn containing elk ears,
FROM five inches to foot in length, is
not n monstrosity OF Idaho soil but O
normal sample of what this country
can produce. This stock of corn is
from a field majority of which had
more than two ears to the stock.
Idaho also has corn for the fair eigh-
teen feet in height from roots to
tassel, and will lay claim to having
the tallest corn in the world. Grow
ing corn with no danger from either
frost or drought, will become an inn
portant industry in this State before
many years.

What Tcnnyson Owed to Rogers.

The Boston Commonwealth claims to
have undoubted authority for the fol-
lowing story: On the death of WaCls-
worth the laurcatcship was offered to
Samuel Rogers in IN autograph note
by Prince Albert. The venerable poet,
then 81 years old. declined the offer
after serious consideration, and, having
been requested to name person to fill
the. office, he recommended Tcnnyson.
The prime minister replied that the
government was mot acquainted" with
Mr.. Tennyson, and asked if Mr.. Rogers
were quite sure that there was nothing
in his poetry which might be out of
place in a poet laureate chosen by q
woman. Mr.. Rogers satisfied the gov
ernment on this point, and Tennyson
was appointed.

PROGRESS IN RAILWAY BUILDING

Great Britain ard Ireland have now
about -, 0oU miles OF railways, OF which
4 little OYER opc-l,alf are d,,uhlr

amount to the enormous sum OF $500

The railway system of the United
Kingdom is practically finished, says
the Pittsburgh acknowledgement
Nothing in the way of new
railroad construction is going on
worth mentioning. A little over
100 miles of new road were added,
and part of this was an exceptional
matter. The picture presented in these
few figures is that of n finished coun-
try, fully developed in all parts and re-
sources.
Now turn to the United States Our
mileage now amounts to III 900 miles,
more than eight times as large as that
of Great Britain. The gross earnings
last year amounted to over Il thousand
millions of dollars. During this time
there were railroads of Il total length
of nearly 1900 miles constructed. In
other words, every three or four years
we build as many miles of railroad as
the total number that sufiiccs the Eng
lish, Scotch and Irish people.
And the American task is not done by
any means. The growth along exist
ing lines can well be imagined when it
is considered that the English railways
serve 4 population of SO, COZ, 900, or one
mile for every 1000 inhabitants, while
our 10000 miles serve for GO,OOO, 900 of
people, or one mile for eco inhabitants.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

Reading of Section 35 of Bill 176.
Rep. Kanealii moved the yearly
salaries of circuit judges be placed at
$500.
Rep. White opposed the motion,
saying that he was informed by Sir
G. r. Dibbs that it was bad economy
to give the judges poor salaries. That
| would prevent competent men from
sitting on the bench, and the conse-
quence would be that it would be COM
posed of men far inferior to members
of the bar, and that should not be so.
Noble Baldwin favored reducing
the salary of the circuit judges to about
| $4,000 each per anuum. He had been
! told by lawyer that the proposed
system would cost $4,000 more a year
than the old system. He considered
that the Government could not afford
to increase the expenses of the judici-
airy in the country. Referring to the
statement of the Premier of New Zea-
land, he said that gentleman probably
thought that Hawaii was still pros
porous country and could afford that
expense. H2FEs
Noble Marsden moved that there be
one circuit Judge for Hawaii, at $4,000
for the period.
Rep. Smith said that the bill was
the result of very careful considera-
ton. 1t was not done hastily. He
agreed with Noble Marsden, to have
but one circuit judge for Hawaii. He
would rather have one we'll paid Judge
than two poorly paid judges.
Noble j. M. HOrner was in favor Of
the bill. If high salaried men are APP.
| Dointed TO these OlaceS the Dresant
judges, including the natives, would
of necessity drop out. The country
judges may not be as competent as
Honolulu lawyers, yet country people
are satisfied with them. He moved
the salaries for the two judges pass a
$500 each.
Noble Thurston offered the follow
ing amendment: Judges of the Cir
cult Court of the First Circuit, $4,000
each; judges of the Third and Fourth
Circuits, $4,000 each; and judges of the
Second and Fifth Circuits, $500 each
Noble Marsden accepted Noble
Thurston's amendment.

carried.

A Live Firm.

1t will be noticed in this paper that
Suffers advertise. This is firm OF good
business men. Coming here, as they
did, several years ago, perfect strangers,
they, by their upright dealing, gentle
manly bearing and push and vim, have
built up trade that reaches through
several counties. Their store is the
largest between Evansville and Louis
vile, and is full from cellar to garrett OF
the completest and most beautiful vari-
ETY. Of goods. Hundreds Of people visit
this great establishment every day, and
they are always met by gentlemanly
and lady-like clerks, statesmen and sales
ladies, who make 1t pleasure to be
there. Mr.. Julius Nolte is the manager
of this big establishment, and its gener-
al appearance and the unprecidentedsu
cess with which Suffers have met for
the last several years,go TO prove that he
is the right man in the right place.

The Political Outlook at Home.

IL is not unusual TO hear remarked by
some who presume to know much about
the political situation, that Breckenridge
county politics are in muddle, and that
the Democratic party is in narrow straits.
This is a REPETITION of the story that
greets us every year. Studying the sit
uation carefully, there is nothing about
it to discourage any Democrat. There
are facts that should be considered re-
gardless Of the pessimistic theories of the
disaffected. In the first-place, we should
attribute to the Republicans of the coun-
ty fair judgmentand good common sense.
They know well enough that the Demo
Gratis have clear majority in Brecken-
ridge county of 200 to 500 votes as the
elections for several years past will prove.
They know that for any party to gain the
ascendency the Democratic party must
be defeated. Some of them might have
thought of fusion with the Peoples
Party to bring about this end, but the
more considerate ones see differently.
The Peoples Party, il defeated this pear,
has made its last fight. 1t hasn't the
vitality to live through another cam
paign. Its future depends upon the vote
this fall. II successful it becomes fixt-
ure. For knowledge of results we can
do no better than study the history of
political parties. When third one is
established it is at the expense of one Of
the others. Every considerate man, be
he Republican or Democrat, can easily
see which of the old parties would be in.
jured in Breckenridge county by the es-
Enlistment of a third party. The Re-
publicans can see it too plainly. For
them to fall into the Peoples Party ranks
is to commit suicide. If it were possible
for them to elect the third party ticket,
they would gain nothing and loose all.
They would be disorganized and their
party would not be in power. The Demo
cratic party is here to ay. We give the
Republicans credit for better judgment
than such an action would exhibit. They
know that the Peoples Party is their
dangerous antagonist and will hardly
support it in its aspirations to supersede
them. 1t could do no more
To say that the Democratic party is
weakening is absurd. We are better Or
ganized than ever before, and are not to
be frightened by the Peoples party fol-
de-rol.
