Do you know the origin Of tho phrase
used as a headline to this notef 1t pre-
serves the name and memory of very
useful man who lived in England during
tho sixteenth century Thomas Hobson
was born in 1914, and for upward Of 60
years was owner of the stage line running
between London and Cambridge, convey
ing to and from tho university located at
tho latter city the letters, packages,
trunks, etc., belonging to the students,
besides conveying passengers and live
stock.
In addition to his express business he
had livery stable at each end of tho line,
where he kept horses for the accommoda-
ton of students. He was a peculiar old
character, and made it an inVariable rule
that all horses should be worked according
to their ability to withstand the same, al
ways taking into consideration the age,
size and general condition of the animal.
When one horse was taken from the stall
next to the door (Which was the only one
from which he would permit an animal to
be taken) he would put another in tho
Selection stall, )" and, no matter if king,
prince or baron called, he was forced to
take the one next the door" From this
arose the phrase, 'Hobson's choice, "

married to Miss Alice Vanderbilt Shepard

william g. Whitney introduced the young
people to each other. Miss Shepard, who

to the death of her father and sister
Marguerite, nevertheless is known by her

NEW YORK, June 20.-A report has

that Manager Flemmlng OF the National
Sporting club has stated if Corbett and
Manager Brady will apologize for the
alleged disrespectful manner in which
they have spoken and written of the

ager Brady thus discussed the situation:
"a pologize? What for? Jim simply
gave his opinion of them there as he,found
them. He has that right l believe, in
this country. Englishmen who come
here express themselves pretty freely
about us at home but when they come
back here they have not the nerve to
stand by their statements. Corbett is an
American and is not ashamed OF 1t. He
upheld his country and it's Institutions
while he was on the other side and h e
will not apologize to the National club.
If Jackson is anxious to fight Corbett,
Jim will meet him Immediately after his
contest With Fitzsimmons, the same
week. Or if anything should happen to
Fitzsimnlons Jackson can take his place.
In any event Corbett will retire after
his contest at Dallas in next October.
II will match Steve O'Donnell against
Peter Jackson and send him to Engla nd
or let the contest take place at Dalla the

The summers were long in the long ago,

beautiful; that Paddy's Run was pretty

willows in the early spring all the way
until the locusts and the hickories bios

purple and gold. There never was any
thing lovelier, in color or fragrance, than
a fruit orchard in bloom. Perhaps clo-

SPRING VALLEY RIOTERS.

Twenty-three men who are charged
with participation in the recent assault
upon the eolored people of Spring Val
ley, Ills, and with driving them out
of the city, have been arrested and are
to be tried This is as it should be.
for that somebody is guilty of a grave
offense against the law and a great
outrage against the colored miners and
their families there is no doubt. The
names of the most of the men ar
rested have a foreign sound to the
ears of Americans, but if their names
were as familiar as John Smith or
Charles Brown it would make no diff
ference. These men and others drove
from their homes peaceful, industrious
negroes who were earning an honest
living, simply because they were
negroes. Now the constitution and
laws of the United States guarantee
to the negro the same rights as they
do to the white man, and they must
be protected in them else the constitu-
ton and the laws are treated with
contempt and the authority eli the
government is set aside.
There is another aspect of this case
that stirs people up. and that is the
fact that these men who drove the
negro miners out are foreigners and it
is doubtful if over one or two per
cent. of them can read or speak Eng
fish or have the least attachment in
the world to American institutions.
Too many people come to this country
and fail to distinguish between liberty
and license; and this is particularly so
with class of Poles and Hungarians
who are numerous in the mining
regions of Pennsylvania and Illinois
The names of the men arrested for the
Spring Valley outrages indicate that
they are of this class. 1t is incumbent
upon the authorities of the state of
Illinois to vindicate the laws and pro-
tect the negroes in their right to fol-
low any employment they may choose.

SHORT CAMPAIGNS.

Of thirty-eight national committee
men of either party asked by the Chi
cago Times-Herald as to their views
regarding a long or short campaign,
twenty-four were for a short campaign,
nine were against it, while five were
Hon-commital. An overwhelming ma
jority of those who responded to the
question were in favor of a short cam
paign. That the people are becoming
tired Of the long presidential cam
paigns there is no doubt. 1t is more
or less a time of turmoil, and it has
become a trite saying that these presi-
Dental elections demoralize business
almost to utter stagnation. The longer
the campaign the further out of sight
the principles of the two great parties
get. They too often degenerate into
personal elimination and recrimina-
ton, scandal and wholesale abuse.
This all comes from the fact that all
the principles in issue can be and are
gone over in a certain length of time,
and the arguments pro and con, after
one or ts1o repititions, are tired OF by
the people, and their satiated palates
require strongly seasoned food or else
it seems inslpid and is not taken in
any quantity. Then the long cam
paign is a heavy mental and physical
strain upon all engaged in it, and is
attended with great financial expense.
We ha,;ara that all who have had any
political experience in pol
itics, will say that the Fabian policy
of a long campaign in rarely the win
ming policy Loosed from its classical
associations and turned into the YER
nacular of the everyday people. the
Fabian policy is nothing more nor less
than the policy of waiting for some
thing to turn up. It is an ignoring OF

WELCOME, vALkYR1E III.

Lord Dunraven's cup challenger,
Valkyrie III, has arrived in New York.
She is most welcome and will be given
the best of treatment. Those who saw
her come IN say she is splendid craft
and that she may be labeled danger
ous,''
She comes to take back to England,
If she can. the greatest trophy known
to the yachting world, the Americas
cup, thing of small intrinsic value,
yet trophy for which the two great
Anglo-Saxon nations have spent mil
lions to retain and capture In the past
the rivalry has ever been generous and
sportsmanlike, and it is to be hoped
that it always will be so. So many
times have gallant Englishmen chal-
lenged for the cup since the America
won it, and have failed as often as they
have challenged, that we on this side
of the water have almost come to think
that fate has decreed that the cup shall
forever remain here. And so fate has
decreed. but the decree will only be
good SO long as we are able to build
faster yachts than the Englishmen.
They think that this year they have
done this very thing. Yet Defender is
faster than any other American boat
built for the purpose of keeping the cup
here; this seems certain. When De-
fender and Valkyrie III meet TO race,
che question Of superiority will be de-
cided. This meeting should be, and
without doubt will be, free from all
faint of suspicion or jockeying. In
measure the good name and reputation
of the American people are at
stake and they must be main
tanned If the English boat fairly
beats the American boat, no American
with the genuine instincts of the
sportsman will make the paltry, petty
excuses that are too often given to ac-
count for defeat. If the English
craft is beaten we should rejoice but
not exult. Then welcome 10 Yalkyrie
III, and may the best boat win.

THE ErsTEDDFoD.

Early in October there will be held
in the Tabernacle in this city unique
musical festival. Utah has ever had
very enviable reputation in the mu
steal line, and this reputation was
added to when the Tabernacle choir
went to the Worlds Fair and took sec
ond prize. This musical festival of our
Cambrian Association of Utah is in
line with this reputation and ito sec.
cess or failure will add to or take from
that reputation. If it is a success, it
will add to the fame of the whole ter
ritory and give us prominence just as
we are entering the Union. To insure
this success, the choirs and musical So
cieties from all parts of the territory
should participate. And the various
towns should have enough pride to see
that they are represented. Do not for
get that there will be competitors from
surrounding states. 1t is an occasion
when every citizen should take 1t upon
himself to see that Utah is well repre-
scented. so that our visitors shall ac-
