Hobson, the Merrimac hero, de-
feated Bankhead, a veteran politi-
clan, for the democratic nomination
to congress at the recent primaries
in Alabama. All the corporate and
commercial influences were arraign-
ed in favor of Bankhead, for twenty
or more years the representative
from that dis rict, because he has
been more or less successful in Sc
curing appropriations for one object
and another. He stood in with the
system at Washington, which, in
itself, ought to have defeated him.
But to his influence is attributed
the failure of the bill permitting
Captain Hobson to retire from the
navy, owing to injury to his eye
sight while on duty in the Philip
pines, forcing him to resign. Then
a few weeks since, having the par ty
machinery under his control, he
turned an ordinary dirty political
trick to promote his candidacy,
and the voters forthwith turned
him down therefor. Hobson failed
to secure the nomination two years
ago; but he is of the kind who will
not fail, and so made another and
successful attempt this year, for the
nomination is equal to an election.
1t is strange thing that this man,
who was acknowledged to be one
of the best officers in the navy,
who performed as gallant, as
splendid an act as the history of
the republic treasures, should have
been so persistently ridiculed and
maligned, so shabbily treated by the
government for which he deliberate
ly, bravely risked his life, expect
ing to lose it. But he will ''get
there" and Notwithstanding organ
lied opposition, will cut credit
able figure in congress.

upon a demand for lots and lands,
and under favorable conditions they
have rarely failed to create such de-
mand.
There is another class of men
who call themselves real estate deal
ers, men unresourceful, without en-
terprise, who are found wherever
the first mentioned type operates,
who. do nothing to create this de-
mand; but in their small, kinder
garten way hang around and try to
profit by the efforts of the more
enterprising. They are generally
designateds as ''buttinskys, COM
mand the respect of none and the
contempt of all. One Of their in
variable characteristics is to criti-
else the methods of the ''hustlers )"
in other words, they are common,
ordinary, every day knockers
nuisance, a deuimentvto any town;
which also means that they are shy
on gray matter; for every one ex-
cept a natural born fool knows
that a knocker Injuries himself
equally as much as he does the
object of his hammer attack, and
the community on which he in
flicts his presence more than eth
er. They occupy a position rela-
tive to enterprising, public spirit
ed real estate brokers, as do beach
combers to navigators of the deep,
a position that has ever been regard
ed with scorn, because they who
follow the calling are parasites.
Last week Maverick mentioned
incidentally that some such work as
this was interfering with the cf-
forts of the Great Western Beet
Sugar company's agents in bring
ing settlers to Elmore county. J.
A. Mineau asked the writer thereof
and of this if that statement refer
red to him. He was told that the
information came to this paper,
with no names mentioned; that his
name was not in mind when the
story was written. Later in the
evening he talked as if he yearned
to start a rough house in the Turn
er lobby, with this Maverick state
ment as the cause of his grievance.
In the Herald of Saturday is pub
lishd as an advertisement over his
name what was evidently intended
as dead cunning rejoinder.
This man Mineau's actions in this
matter state palmer than any words
could: THAT shoe was made to
order for me. 1t fits to a hair. |
will wear it and make a boiler. "
He knows.
To the doubt expressed regarding
responsibility for what appears in
these columns, he whose name APP
pears as editor hastens to assume
the same, and confesses that he is
trifle impatient to demonstrate be-
yond question that what he says
''goes as it lays, F" for reiteration of
that fact is apparently otherwise
apt to become monotonous.

II is stated in press dispatch
from Huntington that President
Hill, of the Great Northern road,
has secured control of the Pacific
and Idaho Northern, the knowledge
of which fact caused the Hartman
crowd to get hustle on themselves

branch, to forestall Hills plan to
extend his new acquisition to a con-
nection with the Northern Pacific

oily in the way of transportation is

be true, the people of Southern Ida

the fact that their utterly helpless
condition is nearing its end.

REAL ESTATE AGENTS.

No town can ask for any better
fortune than to have among its bus
mess men a number of enterprising,
energetic, ''hustling" real estate
brokers. They are more desirable
than rail roads, factories, or any
other similar advantages; for if
they are of the right kind, they will
bring to their town these, popula-
tion and other factors in the up
building of municipality. No
community in the west has had a
rapid and substantial growth with
out the aid of this class of real es-
tate men. Their existence depends

A case of Importance 10 sheep

suit against r. Douglas & Co., of
Pocatello, Idaho, on contract for
damages sustained by failure on the
part of the defendant to deliver to
the plaintiff certain number of

plaintiffs claimed that they should

Now is the season for the politi-
clans, big and little, to manifest

all sorts of stuff for its columns,
copy, plate matter, patents, free of
charge all especially compiled for

the good of the dear people, to con-
vince them that their salvation de-
ponds upon restoring the democratic
party to power. The paper that
will permit itself TO be so worked I;

cealed bait, is a fish of the species,
according to popular belief, one of
which is born every minute-and,
apparently, never dies.
