Special to Evening Teller.


CHARLESTON, S. c., March %
The government is considerably inter.
ested in a habeas corpus case which
came before Judge Brawley Of tba
supreme court today, as the result
will have an important bearing on the
crusade undertaken by the govern.
ment against peonage practices in the
south and elsewhere.
The primary purpose of the habeaa
corpus proceedings is to test the con.
stitutionality of the state law which
makes it a misdemeanor for a labor.
er to leave his employer without Just
cause where he has been working on
shares and where he has received ad.
vances. Many of the southern states
have such laws.
Some Abuse the Law.
The original intent Of the statute
was to protect the farmers against
negro labor, but in practice the law
has been made an effective agent by
INSCRIPTIONS contractors In the epon-
age cases.
The case now before the court is
that Of Ernest Drayton, who escaped
from what the government charges
was a peonage camp.
He was captured and imprisoned
because he was in debt to his employ

BREWS
AMONG DENIS
Boise Politicians Discuss
Movement to UnSeat :.
Dubois

The announcement which appeared
in The Statesman yesterday of the
movement on foot by the anti-Dubois
democrats to gain control of the next
democratic convention for the purpose
of wrestling from Fred T. Dubois the
power he has had over the party in
the state, caused some lively discus
sion yesterday.
So we'll had the workers in the move
ment kept their movements a secret
that the Dubois democrats received
yesterday with great surprise. There
are a few, 1t seems, who thought they
detected the odor of rat but had been
unable to gain any definite informa-
ton and none of them had any idea
to what an extent the plans had al
ready been laid.
Conversations heard in various plac-
es yesterday indicate that there is GER
tainly mess of trouble brewing in
the ranks of the democratic party.
Anti-Dubois Mems Claims.
The anti-dubois men declare that
trouble is just what they are looking
for and that 1t will be the only way
in which the true sentiments of the
vast majority in the party can be DEM
onstrated.
I'VE think" said one man yester-
day, that at the next state election
the democratic party has every chance
of being successful providing we can
go before the people with a real live
issue on sensible platform.
THE Mormon question is no politi-
cal issue and Mr.. Dubois must be Civ
en- to understand that the democratic
party at the next campaign cannot DE
used by him to parade his Eighty no
lions before the people.
I'VE believe that now is the time to
get busy on this proposition and that
is just what we are doing. I am sorry
the news of the movement came out
quite so soon, but II won't make much
difference, for the bali is now rolling
very nicely"

Meet at Boise In
June

Boise is to have the annual conven-
ton of the United Commercial Travel
ers of America, June 6, and s, says
the Boise Statesman.
The councils embraced in the jur-
isdictions Of Utah, Idaho and Nom
tana grand councils each elect dele
gates to this meeting, to discuss mat
tiers of local interest to those councils,
and to elect delegate to the supreme
council which meets in Columbus, Ohio
in August.
The United Commercial Travellers of
America is a fraternal, accident and
protective association. as well as a
social order. 1t makes provisions for
a special fund for supporting the wild
ows and orphans of its deceased mem
bers
1t pays the largest benefit for ac-
cidental death of any of the CONNER
cial travellers accident associations.
1t also pays weekly indemnity for ac-
cidental injuries.
Helps Shape Good Legislation.
The order has proven itself power
in shaping national and state legisla-
ton for the benefit of the profession.
The meetings of the grand council
are looked upon by the travelling man
as their great annual outin, and for
those three days price lists, sample
cases and the cares of their lives gen.
orally are laid aside and they go in
for a. good time as only travelling men
know how to have.
They will all be here as the fat man,
the slim man, the pretty man, the
homely man and the fiirty man and
the dyspeptic man, and the people of
Boise will like them all.
This will be the most unique meeting
ever held here, and as it is character
istic of the travelling man to either
boost or knock, it is to be hoped the
people of Boise will assist in showing
the members and friends the best time
possible, so that when they leave they
will have nothing but pleasant recol-
lections and kind words for Boise.
Ask for Profuse Decorations.
1t is the wish of the local travelling
men that the merchants and citizens
display the association colors during
this meeting. The colors are white
blue and yellow.
1t Is expected the stores will close
one afternoon to assist in entertain
ing the visitors. The management Of
the details of the entertainment are ir
the hands of competent committees
who have arranged in a general way
the program, which will be perfected
and announced in detail later.
Street Parade and Ball.
On feature will be a street parade
from the city to the baseball grounds
where the annual championship base.
ball game will be held. Last year Sal
Lake won the penant, and it is hoped

which will be an invitation affair
There will also be diving contest a.
the Natatorium, and the meeting viii
close with banquet on the last even,
ing for the members. Contrary to tn,

AN UNkiNGl.Y KING.
The Lion II y Low, Crafty Brute and
Good Deal of n Coward.

The king of beasts" declares writ
er upon the lions of Africa in the Met
ropolitan Magazine, is an unmltigated
nuisance. The stock owner loathes him
for the havoc he causes among the
herds. There is 10 security against
him. He is always travelling A pair
Of lions may find u spot where game is
easily obtainable and make consid
cradle stay there, but their rea. home
is the whole weld.
If the lion slew only as much as ne
could eat he would be less hateful. but
he will often kill four or five oxen and
content himself with levouring only
the entrails OF one.
He is low, crafty brute, one that
takes no risks, for, unlike the leopard
he win never leap wall unless he can
rec what is on the other side \ paper

herd of cattle provided they did not
break out through terror of his growl.
ing and his smell.
The lions roar is the subject of an
other fiction. Not that he is incapable
OF making the most terrible, awe in
spring sound emitted by any living
thing but because when he is roaring
he is harmless. 1t is the lion which
keeps quiet that is to be feared for as
a rule the male and female work In
couples, and the one that makes the
noise is merely driving the game down
the wind to the silent partner
In a single respect only-on the score
of strength--does the lion deserve his
name of king OF beasts" He can
drag large bullock over rough ground
with the greatest ease: he can carry Il
mule on his back, after hosting it there
by some strange sideways jerk of his
head; he can leap n five foot fence with
a fun sized donkey gripped in his
mouth. Otherwise, speaking from n
seven years experience in the lion
country. | have no hesitation in de-
scribing the king of beasts as n fraud,
at least 50 far as his alleged nobility
IS concerned.
His regal attributes lose some of
their glamour when one learns that the
50 called monarch frequently lives for
days ut time on slch plebeian food
as field rats, aud the vision of the
kingly creature sitting patiently on a
fiat rock waiting for the rats to come
out from underneath is a rather I'M
heroic one.
